Overview

A wheel stop is a device used to prevent the movement of wheels or equipment, and is widely used in various mechanical equipment and transportation tools. Its function is mainly to play a safety protection role in the operation of the equipment to prevent accidental sliding or moving of the equipment from causing injuries. The wheel stop has a wide range of applications, including but not limited to automobiles, trains, ships, construction machinery and other fields.

Function

The main functions of the wheel stop include the following aspects:

1. Prevent equipment from moving: The wheel stop prevents the wheel or equipment from moving during operation by fixing or locking it, thereby avoiding accidents.

2. Provide stability: The wheel stop can effectively improve the stability of the equipment, especially in harsh environmental conditions, such as slopes, uneven roads, etc., the role of the wheel stop is particularly important.

3. Protect personnel safety: As a safety device, the wheel stop can effectively protect the personal safety of the staff and avoid the injury caused by the movement of the equipment.

Type

According to different use occasions and needs, wheel stops can be divided into many types, common ones include:

1. Tire wheel stop: It is mainly used to fix the tire and prevent the tire from moving by increasing friction.

2. Mechanical stop wheel stop: mainly used for the fixation of mechanical equipment, by locking the equipment parts to prevent its movement.

3. Hydraulic stop wheel stop: the use of hydraulic principle, through the liquid pressure to fix the equipment in the specified position.

4. Magnetic stop wheel stop: the use of magnetic principle, through the adsorption of magnetic force to fix the equipment.

Application

The wheel stop is widely used in various fields, such as transportation, engineering machinery, mining, manufacturing, etc. Here are some specific application scenarios:

1. Transportation field: In the process of vehicle parking and maintenance, the wheel stop can effectively prevent the vehicle from moving and ensure the safety of personnel.

In the field of construction machinery: in the operation process of excavators, loaders and other construction machinery, the wheel stop can improve the stability of the equipment and prevent accidents caused by the movement of the equipment.

3. Mining field: In the mining and transportation process of the mine, the wheel stop can fix the mine car and other equipment to prevent accidents caused by accidental sliding.

4. Manufacturing field: In the process of equipment fixing and maintenance on the production line, the wheel stop can play an important role in safety guarantee.
