<p>A vehicle wheel handling device for assisting in the mounting or demounting of a vehicle wheel (28) onto or from the spare wheel storage position of a vehicle, comprises wheel support means for supporting the wheel, coupling means for coupling said device to said vehicle and handle means (7, 8, 9) for allowing manual operation of said device. The coupling means and handle means (7, 8, 9) are connected to said wheel support means and the device is configured such that raising or lowering the handle means causes raising or lowering of a wheel supported on said wheel support means (1). The configuration of the device is preferably such that the wheel pivots about a horizontal axis during mounting or demounting so that a mechanical advantage is obtained, greatly facilitating the handling of heavy vehicle wheels.</p> |
