A snow anti-skid device a plurality of which are to be fitted at intervals around a motor vehicle wheel. Each device is in the form of a horseshoe-shaped strip-form yoke or stirrup comprised of a thickened central yoke section with curved limbs (20) for embracing the tire (15) extending away from opposite sides thereof. The free ends of the limbs are in the form of claws provided with magnets which engage under and adhere to the shoulders of the wheel rim. The thickened central region of the yoke may be provided with a coating of a resilient material, which can be molded on so as to extend through openings in the strip and provide a non-slip surface abutting the tread of the tire and a studded surface for engaging the ground. One or both limbs of the yoke or stirrup may be resiliently longitudinally extensible, or may be adapted for positive adjustment of its length. |
