Abstract
A clamping arrangement for clamping vehicle wheels against a rotatable counter plate of a test apparatus. A clamping plate is adjustably movable toward the counter plate. Clamping pins are mounted on a pressure plate and adapted to extend into and engage a mounting hole in a vehicle wheel. In order to enable the rapid alignment of a vehicle wheel in the apparatus, while assuring positive clamping, guide pins to the pressure plate. The ends of the clamping pins are contoured to enable them to fit the mounting holes of different diameters.
