PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a caster device which surely operates regardless of presence or absence of a braking condition of a wheel upon generation of such as earthquakes and can prevent untended move or fall of the caster truck.SOLUTION: The caster device includes one or a plurality of projection bodies 3P that carry out a projection operation from the periphery of the wheel when the vibration or the shock is sensed, and stops the movement of the wheel by grounding at least either of the projection body that projects during operation. One or the plurality of projection bodies are provided, and stops slipping sideways or rolling of the wheel by carrying out the projection operation from the periphery of the wheel.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】地震等の発生時に車輪の制動状態の有無に拘わらず確実に作動し、意図しないキャスター台車の移動や転倒を防止し得るキャスター装置を提供する。【解決手段】キャスター装置は、振動又は衝撃を感知したときに車輪の周囲から突出作動する一個または複数個の突出体3Pを備え、作動時に突出した少なくともいずれかの突出体が接地することで車輪の移動を制止する。突出体は1個または複数個備えられ、車輪の周囲から突出作動して車輪の横滑り又は転動を止める。【選択図】図1
