[0024] To illustrate the technical content, achieved objectives and effects of the present invention in detail, the following description is given in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0025] In semiconductor production workshops, trolleys are widely used to transport wafer sources, chemical solutions, equipment spare parts, and more between various processes. See Chinese Utility Model Patent Application No. 200920207708.9, which discloses a "semiconductor process trolley." However, due to the difficulty in accurately parking trolleys, trolleys often move without human intervention and collide with surrounding equipment, electrical wiring, and wall coverings, causing loose connections, power outages, and wall coverings to peel.

[0026] Based on this, the present application provides a wheel limiter for a trolley, which can solve the problem that the trolley moves on its own without human operation.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a wheel limiter for a trolley includes a limit seat 1 and a limit assembly 2; the limit seat 1 includes a limit platform 11, and a plurality of plug interfaces 111 are provided on the table surface of the limit platform 11; the limit assembly 2 includes a mounting box 21, a limit rod 22 and a fixed block 23; the mounting box 21 has a first nail column 211 adapted to the plug interface 111, one end of the limit rod 22 is hinged to the mounting box 21, and the fixed block 23 is slidably arranged on the rod body of the limit rod 22, and the fixed block 23 has a second nail column 231 adapted to the plug interface 111.

[0028] Assembly of the wheelbarrow limiter: The installation box 21 of the limit assembly 2 is inserted into the insertion port 111 of the limit platform 11 via the first nail post 211, allowing the installation box 21 to be securely placed on the limit seat 1. The second nail post 231 of the limit rod 22 of the limit assembly 2 is inserted into the insertion port 111 of the limit platform 11 via the fixing block 23, securing the limit rod 22 above the limit platform 11. Furthermore, during the insertion of the second nail post 231 into the insertion port 111 of the limit platform 11, the second nail post 231 can be aligned with the insertion port 111 by swinging the limit rod 22 and sliding the fixing block 23 on the rod of the limit rod 22.

[0029] Application of the trolley wheel limiter: The limit rod 22 contacts the trolley wheel, forcing the trolley to rest against the limit assembly 2, thereby preventing the trolley from moving without human intervention. The limit seat 1 can be embedded in the ground, so that the limit platform 11 is flush with the ground, making it easier for workers to move the trolley onto the limit platform 11.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the installation box 21 further includes a base 212, a latch 2121 is provided on the top of the base 212, and a first sleeve 221 is provided at one end of the limiting rod 22 to fit with the latch 2121. The first sleeve 221 on the limiting rod 22 is sleeved on the latch 2121 of the base 212, thereby achieving the swing of the limiting rod 22 on the installation box 21.

[0031] Alternatively, see Figure 2 As shown, a placement groove 2122 is provided on the base 212, and the latch 2121 is located in the placement groove 2122. The latch 2121 is arranged in the placement groove 2122 to avoid the overall height of the limit seat being too high, resulting in interference with the bottom of the trolley.

[0032] Alternatively, see Figure 2 As shown, the installation box 21 further includes a decorative cover 213, which is engaged with the base 212 and is used to shield the top of the base 212. The decorative cover 213 shields the top of the base 212, which not only protects the connection between the latch 2121 and the first sleeve 221, but also makes the installation box 21 more beautiful.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in a possible embodiment, at least two pins 2121 are provided along the contour of the top of the base 212, and each pin 2121 is connected to a limit rod 22 with a fixed block 23, wherein part of the limit rod 22 is used to limit the movement of the trolley, and the other part of the limit rod 22 is used to guide the rolling direction of the wheels of the trolley.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing block 23 further includes a second sleeve 232, which is sleeved on the shaft of the limiting rod 22, and one end of the second nail column 231 is connected to the outer wall of the second sleeve 232. Since the second sleeve 232 is sleeved on the shaft of the limiting rod 22, the fixing block 23 can be easily moved on the shaft of the limiting rod 22.

[0035] Alternatively, see Figure 3 As shown, a reinforcement piece 2311 is provided on one end of the second nail column 231 connected to the second sleeve 232. The reinforcement piece 2311 reduces the risk of deformation or breakage at the connection between the second nail column 231 and the second sleeve 232, thereby ensuring that the second nail column 231 can smoothly enter and exit the plug interface 111.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, at least two first nail posts 211 are provided on the installation box 21. The multiple first nail posts 211 are subjected to force together, which can ensure the installation reliability of the installation box 21 on the limiting seat 1.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the limit seat 1 further includes a support plate 12 and reinforcement ribs 13; the support plate 12 is provided along the bottom surface of the limit platform 11, and the reinforcement ribs 13 are provided on the bottom surface of the limit platform 11. The limit seat 1 supports the limit platform 11 through the support plate 12, and the reinforcement ribs 13 prevent the limit platform 11 from collapsing, which would cause the installation of the limit assembly 2 on the limit seat 1 to fail.
