Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8200977A1] A dual wheel caster (10) having a vertical pintle (16) in a central horn (11) to accommodate swivelling movement of the caster (10) with an integral forwardly extending projection of "nose" on the horn (11) having an upwardly inclined lower surface (41) that slides up on relatively high obstruction (60) to raise the forward end of the supported article (61) to reduce the possibility of a caster supported article tipping over in a forward direction. The horn (11) has an integral arcuate projection (50) adjacent this anti-tipping slide surface (41) to permit the caster (10) and the supported article (61)to ride up and over lower obstructions such as inclined door skills (63).
