ABSTRACT:
A wheel chock for aircraft comprising a first inverted U-shaped channel member which includes a horizontal upper surface and side surfaces extending downwardly therefrom to form vertical side edges. A first side panel is secured to one side edge of the first channel member and extends horizontally in a first direction with at least one locking hole extending therethrough. An aperture extends through each side surface of the first channel member in axial alignment about a horizontal axis. Both apertures are of a common predetermined diameter. A second U-shaped channel member includes a horizontal upper surface and side surfaces extending downwardly therefrom to form vertical side edges. A second side panel is secured to one side edge of the second channel member and extends horizontally in a second direction opposite from the first direction with at least one locking hole extending therethrough adapted to be positioned in alignment with at least one of the holes of the first side panel. A cylindrical rod extends horizontally in the second direction from adjacent to the end of the second channel member remote from the second side plate and is slidingly positionable within the apertures of the first channel member to an extent determined by the alignment of locking holes of the first and second side plates. A chain is secured to the first channel member adjacent to the apertures. The chain has a free end adapted to be positioned in alignment with the aligned holes of the first and second side plates.
