Abstract
Appareil destiné à mesurer et corriger le parallélisme des roues d'un véhicule à moteur. Il comprend un projecteur 14 qui est fixé sur une roue directrice 12a d'un véhicule et qui emet un faisceau lumineux de manière que ce dernier forme un angle prédéterminé avec une ligne à peu près parallèle à l'axe de rotation de la roue 12a. Un dispositif photosensible 20 de codage à canaux multiples est disposé de manière à couper le faisceau lumineux. Ce dispositif produit plusieurs signaux binaires qui dépendent de la distance comprise entre la position du faisceau lumineux coupé par ce dispositif et une position de référence. Un dispositif 22, commandé par les signaux binaires, indique la position angulaire des roues. Domaine d'application : contrôle et réglage du parallélisme des roues de véhicule.
