[0005] The utility model is further configured as follows: a brake pad is provided above the first wheel and / or the second wheel, and an auxiliary frame is connected between the brake pad and the wheel frame.

[0006] The utility model is further configured as follows: brake pads are provided above the first wheel and the second wheel.

[0007] To sum up, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: the high-load-bearing caster involved in the utility model, as the load increases, the tension spring is stretched, until the two wheels and the fork swing upward, if the load exceeds the rated load, the wheel will contact the brake pad, thereby realizing a braking prompt to prevent the wheel from being used under overload conditions, thereby avoiding damage and extending the service life of the caster. The overall function is complete and the practicability is strong. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0009] Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of another embodiment of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0010] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with specific examples. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are only for the purpose of further illustrating the features and advantages of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent claims of the present invention. Based on the examples in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0011] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0012] Example 1

[0013] See also Figure 1 As shown, a high-load caster involved in this embodiment includes a bracket 1, the bracket 1 is rotatably connected to a pivot 2, the pivot 2 is provided with a wheel frame 3 that moves and is located below the bracket, the wheel frame 3 is rotatably connected to a wheel axle 4 whose axis is perpendicular to the pivot axis, the wheel axle 4 is rotatably connected to a first fork 5 and a second fork 6, the first fork 5 is rotatably connected to a first wheel 7 near the bottom and is fixedly connected to a first spring mounting column 8 near the top, the second fork 6 is rotatably connected to a second wheel 9 near the bottom and is fixedly connected to a second spring mounting column 10 near the top, and a tension spring 11 is connected between the second spring mounting column 10 and the first spring mounting column 9.

[0014] Furthermore, a brake pad 12 is provided above the first wheel 7 , and an auxiliary frame 13 is connected between the brake pad 12 and the wheel frame 3 .

[0015] Furthermore, brake pads 12 are provided on top of the first wheel 7 and the second wheel 9 .

[0016] In this embodiment, when the load on the caster is less than the rated load, the bracket 1 moves downward, the tension spring 11 is stretched, the first fork 5 and the first wheel 7 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3, and the second fork 6 and the second wheel 9 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3. However, the first wheel 7 does not contact the brake pad 12, and the wheel can still roll normally. When the load on the caster is greater than or equal to the rated load, the bracket 1 moves downward, the tension spring 11 is stretched, the first fork 5 and the first wheel 7 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3, and the second fork 6 and the second wheel 9 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3, until the first wheel 7 contacts the brake pad 12, and the wheel cannot roll normally. The overload is indicated by the inability to roll.

[0017] Example 2

[0018] See also Figure 2As shown, a high-load caster involved in this embodiment includes a bracket 1, the bracket 1 is rotatably connected to a pivot 2, the pivot 2 is provided with a wheel frame 3 that moves and is located below the bracket, the wheel frame 3 is rotatably connected to a wheel axle 4 whose axis is perpendicular to the pivot axis, the wheel axle 4 is rotatably connected to a first fork 5 and a second fork 6, the first fork 5 is rotatably connected to a first wheel 7 near the bottom and is fixedly connected to a first spring mounting column 8 near the top, the second fork 6 is rotatably connected to a second wheel 9 near the bottom and is fixedly connected to a second spring mounting column 10 near the top, and a tension spring 11 is connected between the second spring mounting column 10 and the first spring mounting column 9.

[0019] Furthermore, brake pads 12 are provided above the first wheel 7 and the second wheel 9 , and an auxiliary frame 13 is connected between the brake pads 12 and the wheel frame 3 .

[0020] In this embodiment, when the load on the caster is less than the rated load, the bracket 1 moves downward, the tension spring 11 is stretched, the first fork 5 and the first wheel 7 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3, and the second fork 6 and the second wheel 9 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3. However, neither the first wheel 7 nor the second wheel 9 contacts the brake pad 12, and the wheel can still roll normally. When the load on the caster is greater than or equal to the rated load, the bracket 1 moves downward, the tension spring 11 is stretched, the first fork 5 and the first wheel 7 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3, and the second fork 6 and the second wheel 9 rotate relative to the wheel frame 3, until both the first wheel 7 and the second wheel 9 contact the brake pad 12, and the wheel cannot roll normally. The overload is indicated by the inability to roll.

If the load exceeds the rated load, the wheel will come into contact with the brake pad, thereby providing a braking prompt to prevent the wheel from being used under overload conditions, thereby avoiding damage and extending the service life of the caster. The overall function is complete and the practicability is strong.
