Wheel restraints (10) for restraining vehicles at loading docks (16) are described herein. An example wheel restraint includes a restraining arm (30) to anchor a wheel chock (22) to a fixed point at the dock. When in a blocking position, the chock rests directly upon the dock' s driveway without the chock having to engage additional hardware that could be an obstruction to snow removal. In some examples, the wheel chock automatically swings between its blocking and release positions in response to the arm simply lowering or raising the chock.

L'invention porte sur des dispositifs d'immobilisation de roue (10) pour immobiliser des véhicules au niveau de quais de chargement (16). Un dispositif d'immobilisation de roue donné à titre d'exemple comprend un bras d'immobilisation (30) pour ancrer une cale de roue (22) à un point fixe au niveau du quai. Lorsqu'elle est en position de blocage, la cale s'appuie directement sur la voie d'accès du quai sans que la cale n'ait à se mettre en prise avec un matériel supplémentaire qui pourrait constituer une obstruction au retrait de neige. Dans certains exemples, la cale de roue passe automatiquement entre ses positions de blocage et de libération en réponse au fait que le bras abaisse ou élève simplement la cale.
