ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for inhibiting elongate flexible elements such as wire cable and the like from entangling the axle assembly (1) of a vehicle wheel (2) comprises a guard member (40 securable to the vehicle axle assembly (1) between the wheel (2) and the body of the vehicle (3). The guard member (4) has a radially outer portion (9) which in use lies adjacent the wheel rim (2b) so as to substantially prevent elongate flexible elements from passing between the guard member (4) and the wheel (2). The outer portion (9) of the guard member (4) may be provided with at least one cutting edge (10) for cutting elongate flexible elements which are pulled thereover by rotation of the vehicle wheel 2. A further member (5) may be provided which in use extends between the vehicle body (3) and the guard member (4) so as to inhibit elongate flexible elements from passing between the vehicle body (3) and the guard member (4) and entangling the axle assembly (1).
