摘要

A wheel rim retainer includes an annular unit, a first end connecting member movably coupled at one end of the annular unit, and a second end connecting member movably coupled at an opposed end of the annular unit. The annular unit includes a plurality of hinged members movably coupled with each other in an edge-to-edge manner, wherein each of the hinged members has a width larger than a width of the wheel well. The second end connecting member is detachably coupled with the first end connecting member for encircling the hinged members around a hub surface of a wheel rim to cover a wheel well thereof so as to prevent a bead of a tire falling at the wheel rim when the tire is deflated.
