ABSTRACT:
A device for mounting snow chains on a vehicle tire has a base adapted to be placed on the ground, downwardly and outwardly inclined terminal portions providing runways for a vehicle wheel and a transversely concave intermediate mounting surface for supporting the vehicle tire. The top of the device has laterally-extending grooves allowing each chain cross-over to rest freely therein with ample room to properly fit the chain. A lobe is located in the center for the vehicle tire to rest upon. The outer edges of the device extend upwardly to center the vehicle tire and prevent it from slipping off the sides of the device. The bottom has saw-toothed lateral members to hold the device from slipping on the road surface and to distribute the weight of the vehicle evenly upon the road surface.
