ABSTRACT:
Device for fixing a vehicle wheel on a balancing machine comprising a platen to be fixed at its center on the rotary shaft of the balancing machine. A series of passages having axes parallel to the axis of rotation of the shaft are formed in the platen, the axes being located at the angles of at least two regular polygons. There is provided a set of cranks each having a journal for engagement in a corresponding one of the passages and a stud eccentric with respect to the journal for engagement in one of the fixing operations of the wheel. A mechanism simultaneously drives all the cranks upon rotation of one of the cranks so that the studs of the cranks are at a distance from the center of the platen which is equal to the distance between the fixing apertures and the center of the wheel. One of the passages constitutes an angle common to all the polygons and all the passages are located on the same circumference on the platen.
