摘要

The spare wheel retainer (10) for a motor vehicle has a retaining force exerted by a push shaft (16) with a control shaft (15) operated by a hand crank connected to a gear (40) of a reduction drive (22). The drive has a force limiter (20) with a tubular sleeve (29) connected to the shaft and sliding on it. A compression spring (32) forces the sleeve against the drive shaft (28) fixed to the gear.
