AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing shopping carts are prone to getting stuck at the comb plate of moving walkways, causing the front wheels to stop and potentially leading to collisions. Furthermore, wear on the brakes or deformation of the frame can cause the auxiliary wheels to roll unsafely.

Method used

A secondary wheel is installed on the front wheel of the shopping cart. The lower end of the secondary wheel is located on the upper side compared to the brake part, and a flange is formed on the outer circumferential surface. It is inserted into the groove of the moving walkway track to prevent the secondary wheel from rolling. The secondary wheel is supported by a fixed bracket to maintain stability.

Benefits of technology

This allows shopping carts to safely and conveniently cross the comb plate on moving walkways, preventing the auxiliary wheels from rolling, reducing wear on the brakes, and improving safety and convenience.
