The safety device prevents the accidental separation of a wheel from an axle of a truck. The device has a frame which is attached to the cargo box of the truck. A slider is mounted to that frame and is spaced apart from an outer wall of the wheel. A spindle is mounted in bearings in the slider and is connected to the hub of the wheel. Should the wheel separate from the axle the safety device will hold it to the vehicle. A sensor detects movement of the wheel toward the frame and activates an alarm for warning the driver of the truck of such movement.

Dispositif de sécurité empêchant une roue de camion de se détacher accidentellement de son essieu. Le dispositif comprend un cadre fixé sur la semi-remorque d'un camion tracteur. Un coulisseau est fixé au cadre à une certaine distance du flanc externe de la roue. Un tourillon à roulement est monté dans le coulisseau et relié à l'essieu de la roue. S'il advenait que la roue se détache de l'essieu, le dispositif de sécurité l'empêcherait de se séparer du véhicule. Un détecteur décèle le déplacement de la roue vers le cadre et active une alarme avertissant le conducteur du camion.
