ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for detecting lateral irregularities of the rim of a wire spoke wheel, in particular for use in a machine for centering such spoke wheels of the type having a wheel spindle, a hub rotatable on the spindle, a wheel rim and a plurality of adjustable spokes extending between the hub and the rim. The apparatus comprises spindle holding means for receiving and fixedly holding the wheel spindle and mounted in the frame of the apparatus for free sliding movement in the axial direction of the wheel spindle, and two oppositely arranged rim followers adapted to engage the wheel rim on both sides thereof at one location of the wheel circumference so as to hold the rim in a fixed lateral position at this location while allowing the wheel rim to be rotated about the spindle, and detecting means for detecting lateral displacements of the spindle holding means when the wheel is so rotated.
