A device, which connects a gearmotor to an aircraft wheel, comprising: a casing rotatably carrying a shaft driven by the gearmotor, the shaft having a fluted portion on which a gearwheel is mounted to slide along a longitudinal axis of the shaft without rotating relative to the shaft; a toothed ring for constraining to rotate with the aircraft wheel; and means for moving the gearwheel axially between a retracted position (disengaged from the toothed ring) and an engaged position (gearwheel meshes with the toothed ring). The means for moving comprises a hollow screw-and-nut assembly extending around the shaft, one of the elements being axially secured to the gearwheel but prevented from rotating by an anti-rotation member, and the other element of the screw-and-nut assembly being rotatably mounted inside the casing to be driven selectively by an electric motor so that rotating the electric motor causes the gearwheel to move axially.
