Abstract
There is provided a misalignment detecting device being capable of detecting and correcting distortion of a spoked wheel with a simple configuration. The misalignment detecting device includes: supporting framesto which the spoked wheelto be inspected is set; a first light sourcethat is attached to the supporting frame and irradiates first detected light to the spoked wheel set on the supporting frame in an axial direction of the spoked wheel; a first line sensorthat is attached to the supporting frame so as to be capable of receiving the first detected light and detects radial distortion of the spoked wheel without contact based on the received first detected light; a second light sourcethat is attached to the supporting frame and irradiates second detected light to the spoked wheel set on the supporting frame in a direction intersecting the axial direction of the spoked wheel; and a second line sensorthat is attached to the supporting frame so as to be capable of receiving the second detected light and detects axial distortion of the spoked wheel without contact based on the received second detected light.
