Abstract:
Disclosed is a twin-pedal-controlled swivel caster, comprising a caster body frame (1), a pair of caster assemblies (2) disposed at two sides of the caster body frame (1), a swivel assembly (5) disposed on the caster body frame (1), and a braking module (3) capable of braking by stepping on a braking pedal (32) and a brake release module (4) capable of resetting the movement of the caster by stepping on a braking release pedal (41), both of which are disposed in the caster body frame (1). By means of the pedals, the swivel caster can both lock the rotation of a wheel plate of the caster and lock the direction of rotation of the caster, and can also release the dual-locked state by means of the braking release pedal (41) located in the same direction as the braking pedal (32), making the caster return to a state of full freedom again. The braking and braking release actions of the swivel caster are convenient and easy, and the swivel caster is simple to operate.
