A utility vehicle tire chain, in particular for forestry vehicles, tractors, or wheel loaders, has a plurality of cleat plates directly or indirectly connected to one another via chain strands, wherein each cleat plate has at least one cleat to improve traction which extends away from an upper side of the cleat plate. The solution according to the invention can simplify the manufacture of a utility vehicle tire chain and improve its stability.

The invention relates to an anti-skid chain for tires, in particular for bogie axles, wherein the anti-skid chain has two laterally stable guide chains which, when installed, are arranged to the side of the treads of the tires, wherein the anti-skid chain has a flexible chain mesh which extends between the two guide chains, and wherein at least one guide chain has chain links which are interconnected in an articulated manner by means of joint pins in the circumferential direction, and at least one rotation-blocking element by means of which a maximum joint angle between two interconnected chain links is defined. In order to prevent lateral pulling of the anti-skid chain and, at the same time, to provide an anti-skid chain that is easy to produce, according to the invention, a part of the rotation-blocking element is located on at least one of the joint pins

An innovative anti-skid device for road vehicles, particularly suitable for being applied to a car wheel to increase friction between the wheel and the road surface in winter conditions. The anti-skid device can be easily mounted and removed from the tire of a vehicle.
