Underfloor fixation for a spare wheel of a vehicle

摘要

The fixing comprises a tray (10), arranged in the vehicle floor (12), comprising a central opening (26) in its bottom (24). Wheel supports (16,18) support the spare wheel (14) through its center during its lifting. The lifting means comprises a cable (60) fixed by one end on the supports and by the other end to a traction handle (62). Pre-locking means (20) temporarily hold the wheel in the raised position with its rim (30) against the tray bottom. Locking means (72,74) definitively lock the wheel in a fixed position where the tire is applied against the exterior face of the floor.
