The present invention relates to a braking device for a trolley of the type which is provided with four mounting brackets and each of which is mounted with a caster socket thereof. Each caster socket is rotationally mounted with a caster. The trolley frame is further provided with a pair of hand grips at both sides, respectively, for moving the trolley forward by exerting a forward force to the trolley through the hand grips. The braking assembly which is mounted at the hand grip includes a housing which is fixedly attached to the hand grip. A pulling rod is pivotally mounted at one end of the housing. A cable is fixedly connected to the other end of the pulling rod. The pulling rod is provided with a first recess, a second recess and a boss. The housing is pivotally mounted with a braking handle which is provided with a biasing tab and a positioning tab. When the braking handle is pushed downward the biasing tab will be engaged in the second recess, or the positioning tab of the braking handle may press against the boss of the pulling rod such that the pulling rod is pivoted upward and while the cable is also pulled and the free end of the braking lever is moved downward to bias the braking shoe against the caster to brake it. When the biasing tab of the braking handle is engaged in the first recess of the pulling rod, the cable is released and the caster is also released from the braking shoe of the braking lever for free rotation.
