A tire traction assembly for mounting upon a tire. The assembly includes a plurality of cables with brackets at opposing ends which are each in a pivoting engagement with the cables. A toothed member is attached to a first of the two brackets and configured for engagement with a ratchet mechanism attached to the second of the brackets to releasably secure the tire traction assembly around the tire. A plurality of traction cables configured to traverse the rolling surface of the tire are located in-between the brackets. The brackets may include a planar tread plate which has opposing planar side surfaces configuring the brackets to a U-shape.

Disabled vehicle moving device including flexible tire sleeve and cover

A disabled vehicle moving device configured to allow movement of a vehicle includes a sleeve made of a flexible material and configured to be mounted over a radially outer surface of a tire/wheel assembly of the vehicle that is locked for rotation. A cover is made of a flexible material and configured to be mounted over the sleeve and the tire/wheel assembly of the vehicle. A lubricant is arranged between the sleeve and the cover. The cover rotates relative to the sleeve and the tire/wheel assembly to allow the vehicle to be moved.

ANTI-SKID DEVICE

This present invention relates to an anti-skid device adapted to being mounted on tyres of the vehicle wheels to provide traction and wheel to ground contact enhancement in snowy and icy conditions. The device includes a central housing (2) from which protrudes radially three arms (3) which are extended at the outer end by anti-slip components (10) transversally embracing the tread of the tyre. The anti-skid device has a locking mechanism that consists of a locking element (24) with teeth engaging with teeth on the inner circumference of the housing (2). A handle 16 integrated into the hub (4) interfaces with the locking element (24) to securely maintain the locked status when the device is mounted onto the wheel.
