A wheel restraint (10) for restraining a vehicle (14) at a loading dock (16) includes a wheel chock (20) suspended from a tether (32). The tether hangs from an overhead beam (34) such that the wheel chock can be swung down and underneath the vehicle (14) and placed directly in front of a wheel (12) of the vehicle. A pin (24) can be used to help hold the chock (20) to an anchor (26) that is fastened to a driveway of the loading dock (16). The orientation of the pin (24) and the anchor holes (28) in which the pin can be selectively inserted prevents the chock from tipping back and makes the restraint (10) more tolerant of dirt, ice and other contaminants. In some examples, an offset between the beam (34) and the wheel (12) results in the tether (32) urging the chock toward the anchor.

La présente invention concerne une retenue (10) de roue pour retenir un véhicule (14) à un quai de chargement (16) comprenant une cale (20) de roue suspendue à une longe (32). La longe pend depuis une poutre suspendue (34) de sorte que la cale de roue puisse osciller vers le bas et sous le véhicule (14) et être placée directement devant une roue (12) du véhicule. Une broche (24) peut être utilisée pour aider à retenir la cale (20) à une ancre (26) qui est attachée à une voie du quai de chargement (16). L'orientation de la broche (24) et des trous (28) de l'ancre dans lesquels la broche peut être insérée de manière sélective empêche la cale de basculer vers l'arrière et rend plus résistante la retenue (10) contre la poussière, la glace et d'autres agents contaminants. Dans certains exemples, un décalage entre la poutre (34) et la roue (12) entraîne la longe (32) à presser la cale vers l'ancre.
