Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of casters, in particular to a self-locking gravity caster frame structure. Background Art

[0002] Casters are a general term, including movable casters and fixed casters. Movable casters are also called universal wheels, and their structure allows 360-degree rotation; fixed casters are also called fixed casters, which have no rotating structure and cannot turn. Usually, the two types of casters are generally used in combination. For example, the structure of a trolley is two fixed wheels in the front and two universal wheels in the back near the push armrest. The caster frame is a bracket for mounting casters for sliding the trolley. The caster is placed on the caster frame. Under the condition of stable connection between the caster and the trolley, the caster can roll smoothly to drive the trolley to move. The general self-locking caster makes the caster have a stopping property. The structure of the caster frame must match the structure of the caster so that the stopping work can proceed smoothly.
