A suitcase with a stopper is a suitcase that has a stopper function that can fix the movement of the casters (wheels) while moving.
Suitcases usually have four casters that allow them to move freely in 360 degrees, but stoppers are useful to prevent the suitcase from moving on its own in situations where you don't want it to move, such as on a train or up a slope.
