Abstract (en)

[origin: US6282799B1] Device for affixing the wheel-alignment sensor is mounted on a main body at a given reference direction to it. Three support arms are mounted on the main body and run substantially radially in a plane which is perpendicular to the reference direction. Spacers are mounted on the support arms in transversely displaceable manner thereto. The spacer ends that will constitute a three-point support on a wheel rim are situated in a plane which is perpendicular to the reference direction. Element(s) to affix the main body to the wheel rim are provided. At least one of the spacers (24, 54) is adjustable transversely to its mounting arm. In this manner the position of the spacers can be matched to different pitches of wheel affixing nuts.
