Self-locking casters usually have a built-in locking mechanism that allows them to secure furniture in a specific position when needed, preventing furniture from accidentally moving or sliding. The following are common locking mechanisms for self-locking casters:
Common locking mechanisms for self-locking casters:
Step-on lock:
This type of self-locking caster releases the lock when stepping on the caster part, and automatically locks when not stepped on. By stepping on or stepping down a specific part, the locking mechanism is released, allowing the caster to roll freely, and when released, the caster is locked to fix the position of the furniture.
Button lock:
Some self-locking caster designs have a button or switch that is released by pressing the button or switch. When the button is not pressed, the caster is locked and fixed in position; when the button is pressed, the caster is unlocked and can roll freely.
Tie-rod lock:
This type of self-locking caster usually has a tie rod or pull ring, and the lock is released by pulling the rod or ring. When the tie rod or pull ring is pulled out, the caster is unlocked and allows rolling; when the tie rod or pull ring is pushed back into place, the caster is locked.
Gravity Locking:
Some self-locking casters use gravity to implement the locking mechanism. When the furniture is loaded on the caster, gravity will activate the locking mechanism and fix the caster; when the load is reduced or additional force is applied, the lock will be released and the caster can roll.
These locking mechanisms enable self-locking casters to achieve stable locking and convenient unlocking functions in different situations, providing more convenience and flexibility, while ensuring that the furniture can be fixed in place when needed, increasing the safety and stability of the furniture.
