Abstract
The discloure relates to a roller-skate with improved brake device. A guidance slanting upwards is disposed at a first through hole of the skate body for the mounting of a first rolling axle having a first wheel member rotatably engaged therewith. A spring mount fixed with a brake plate having brake lining underside both its ends is mounted between the first and the second wheel members. When the wheel support lurches forwards, the first wheel member will move upwards through the guidance, urging against the brake lining fixed under brake plate fixed to the spring mount to achieve the effect of braking the skate. Moreover, when pressed at one end, the brake plate, by leverage, will bend at the other end to limit the motion of the second wheel member and thus further contributes to the effectivity of the brake device.
