A vehicle leveling device for ensuring that a vehicle is level for calibration of sensors that are installed on the vehicle is presented. A lifting jack is placed under each of the vehicle's wheels and a mounting clamp is mounted to each wheel. Each mounting clamp has a sizing frame having two ends, a clamping member slidably mounted upon each end of the sizing frame and a pair of pivotally mounted engagement hooks. A support member mounted central to the sizing frame that supports an indicator that allows a level reading to be taken. The lifting jacks may be actuated under each of the vehicle's wheels as needed the ever level indicator reads the same indicating that each wheel is coplanar and the vehicle is level.

A tire lifting assembly used to remove and replace a wheel and a tire on a vehicle is disclosed. The tire lifting assembly is configured to take the weight of the wheel and the tire when the service technician removes or replaces it thereby eliminating the need for manual efforts from a service technician. The assembly is rolled under the mounted wheel and tire and quickly adjusted to secure the wheel and tire by using a roller platform. A scissor jack mechanism is used to adjust the height of the roller platform which allows the rotation of the tire during the mounting procedure.

The wheel lift for changing tire on a vehicle (hereinafter wheel lift) is a mechanical structure. The wheel lift forms a jack used to elevate a vehicle such that the wheel of the vehicle can be removed and replaced. The wheel lift is a portable structure. The wheel lift is a rolling structure. The wheel lift is a non-Euclidean structure such that the wheel targeted for replacement can roll onto the wheel lift. The wheel lift comprises a pedestal, a jack structure, and a wheel rack. The jack structure attaches the wheel rack to the pedestal. The span of the length of the jack structure in the vertical direction adjusts such that the jack structure controls the elevation of the wheel rack above the supporting surface. The wheel rack receives and supports the wheel targeted for replacement.

An improved wheel chock for use with wheeled vehicles, such as aircraft, that is both adjustable in size and that is configured for relatively easy transport, deployment and maneuverability by a single user is disclosed. The wheel chock preferably comprises a lifting end, a rolling end, at least one segment positioned between the lifting end and the rolling end, and a unique and adjustable wheel assembly. The adjustable wheel assembly may be at least partially housed in a pocket formed in the rolling end of the improved wheel chock. The wheel chock may further comprise a tether and an opening for removably attaching said wheel chock to a second wheel chock to prevent unwanted movement of a vehicle wheel in both forward and reverse directions.

A steerable carriage for moving a wheeled object comprising at least one engagement device (3) configured to engage with and elevate a wheel (5) of the wheeled object off the ground such that the wheeled object can be moved upon displacement of the carriage by transmitting a propulsion force from the carriage to the wheeled object via the at least one engagement device, wherein the at least one engagement device comprises: a support device (12), an actuating device (13) movable with respect to the support device such as to cause the wheel to roll forward onto the support device and be held by the support device and the actuating device, wherein the support device comprises: a stopping member (18) movable between a folded position and a stopping position in which it is configured to stop forward motion of the wheel, and an activation member (23) configured to cause the stopping member to move from the folded position to the stopping position when the wheel is rolled onto the support device.

The present invention provides a tire lifting device that allows an operator to lift vehicle and remove vehicle tires remotely, thereby providing a more efficient and effortless vehicle tire removal operation to the operator. The device is configured to capture, remove, replace, and minutely position vehicle wheel and tire for easy re-installation without involving lifting by the technician. The device further is powered by hydraulic and or electric operation. The device comprises a steel frame with at least at least two fixed wheels, at least one steerable wheel and drives for steering the device over surface. The device further comprises a remote control unit to perform complex motions of the device remotely. A main jack and roller stand raises and lowers the wheel and tire for height positioning, while a support tubes and tire guide hold the tire erect either for removing or remounting the vehicle tire.

A wheel mover assembly for a vehicle. The wheel mover assembly may include at least two wheels, an attachment means, a winch, and a motor. The wheel attachment may be bolted to 2-3 of the lugs on the tire. The at least two wheels may be located one on each side and may be used to counteract a torque of the motor turning the vehicle wheel. An outer wheel may contact the ground as it rotates. Further, a remote may be provided.

A steerable carriage for moving a wheeled object comprising at least one engagement device (3) configured to engage with and elevate a wheel (5) of the wheeled object off the ground such that the wheeled object can be moved upon displacement of the carriage by transmitting a propulsion force from the carriage to the wheeled object via the at least one engagement device, wherein the at least one engagement device comprises: a support device (12), an actuating device (13) movable with respect to the support device such as to cause the wheel to roll forward onto the support device and be held by the support device and the actuating device, wherein the support device comprises: a stopping member (18) movable between a folded position and a stopping position in which it is configured to stop forward motion of the wheel, and an activation member (23) configured to cause the stopping member to move from the folded position to the stopping position when the wheel is rolled onto the support device.

A tire and wheel lift assembly for facilitating the removal and installation of wheel/tire assemblies for vehicles includes a rolling frame member that is generally U-shaped, having a center support member and a pair of parallel side support members. A first roller is disposed on a first side support member, and a second roller is attached to a slidable support member so that the rollers are positioned in parallel relation at the same height. The rollers are used to support a wheel/tire assembly, and the slidable support member may slide along the center support member. An adjustment mechanism controls the slidable support member, which can either raise or lower the height of the wheel/tire assembly by sliding the slidable member toward or away from the first roller.
