发明名称 Portable front wheel alignment apparatus and method
摘要 Apparatus to align the front wheels of a go-cart or other wheeled vehicle on which front wheel toe-in is adjustable. A laser disposed adjacent a horizontally disposed scale is selectively detachably mounted to the rear axle of the go-cart at one of the sides of the go-cart and a mirror member is selectively detachably mounted to the front spindle on the same side of the go-cart. The laser is oriented to emit a laser beam at a perpendicular to the rear axle and onto the mirror of the mirror element which reflects the laser beam back toward the scale. Toe-in of one front wheel of the vehicle may be adjusted precisely by viewing the separation of the emitted laser beam and the impingement of the reflected beam on the scale. The apparatus may then be mounted on the opposite side of the vehicle and the other front wheel adjusted. Alternate mounting means are described which permit the laser and scale and the mirror member to be mounted to the go-cart without removing its wheels and without suspending the vehicle.
