In a safety device for containing broken wheels, it is known that a cable system wrapped around the wheels will stop them from leaving the undercarriage. These cables will be guided by fixed rigid supports, stationary to the equipment. The cables will have secure eyelets on each measured to a pre-determined length. Turnbuckles will be required to tighten the cables and have adaquate thead length to compensate for cable sag. The application of this WHEELTAINER will vary on equipment, being that all equipment is not a standard size throughout the industry. The cables will have sufficient tire clearance to avoid either cable or tire damage. Cables should be manufactured from a non-corrosive type material such as stainless steel and installed at equal spacing on the side of the wheel (see drawing). The corner supports will be round pipe, half-round guides will be welded to them where the cable turns the corner. The guides will hold the cable in place and prevent it from sliding up and down pipe. The other fixed supports can be square pipe with drilled holes to guide the cables and will be located between the wheels.
