Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of universal wheel bracket technology, and in particular relates to a universal wheel bracket braking structure. Background Technology

[0002] Caster wheel brackets are components used to install and secure caster wheels. They provide support for the caster wheels, allowing them to rotate freely. They are commonly found on the bottom of various moving equipment or objects, connecting the wheels to the supporting structure and ensuring stable movement. Caster wheel brackets are equipped with braking mechanisms to prevent the wheels from moving arbitrarily when the equipment or object needs to be fixed in one position. This ensures stability and safety during use, avoids collisions and tipping caused by accidental slippage, and meets the need for a stationary state in specific scenarios.

[0003] However, the existing braking structure is not conducive to ensuring that the casters are completely stationary during use. This means that when the equipment or object is touched or pushed by external force, the wheels can still turn at will. Although the overall position has not shifted, the direction has deviated, making it difficult to maintain a stable stationary posture. This not only affects the accuracy of operation, but also causes safety hazards such as collisions and tipping due to loss of directional control. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a universal wheel bracket braking structure. By setting a braking part, it solves the problem that existing braking structures are not easy to ensure that the universal wheels are completely stationary during use.
