Abstract

See full text

A wheel restraint assembly pivots about a centralized axis for enabling enhanced assembly installation and removal. The wheel restraint assembly comprises a plate assembly and a brace assembly. The plate assembly comprises first and second plates, and certain hinge structure therebetween for effecting a plate-based axis of rotation. The brace assembly comprises certain anchoring structure; first and second links, certain wheel-engaging structure, and a brace lock means for selectively locking the wheel-engaging structure against a wheel via the anchor structure and first and second links. The anchoring structure is attached to the first plate, and the brace lock is attached to the second plate. The first and second plates are rotatable about the plate-based axis for locking and unlocking the plate assembly to and from the grating. The brace-lock prevents translation of the first and second brace-based axes when the wheel-engaging structure engages the wheel.
