Device for actuating brake means of mobile appliances

摘要

A device (1) for generating tensile force and/or pressing force to thereby actuate at least one brake means (19) so as to brake or lock at least two caster wheels (11) of a mobile appliance includes at least one lever (5, 7) prepared for rotation thereof about a fulcrum (15); and at least one transmission means (9) disposed at the lever (5, 7) for transmitting the tensile force and/or pressing force generated during a rotation of the lever (5, 7) to the brake means (19). In addition, a mobile rack and device thereby equipped are specified.

1. A device for generating tensile force and/or pressing force to thereby actuate four brake means so as to brake or lock four caster wheels of a mobile appliance, said device including:
two levers that are prepared for being disposed so as to rotate about a fulcrum, or two levers being rotatable about a fulcrum, wherein rotation of the two levers takes place about a common fulcrum; and at least four transmission means disposed at the levers, for transmitting the tensile force and/or pressing force generated during the rotation of the two levers to the four brake means, wherein at least two transmission means extend from opposite sides of each lever; wherein the two levers are prepared for a disposition in which the two levers are rotatable in opposite directions of rotation relative to each other.
