A wheel chock is formed from a bar which is bent to form opposing bottom
arms; a first pair of opposing side arms which run above the bottom arms
and are slightly upturned therefrom: a second pair of opposing side arms
which run upwardly from the first pair of side arms; and cross arms
forming a top portion which runs between the second pair of side arms. A
base plate is attached to the bottom arms, this base plate having studs
attached thereto and extending from the bottom thereof. The studs fit into
a track fixedly attached to the floor of a transporting vehicle which may
be an aircraft or a truck. A central plunger latching member which is
spring loaded also extends from the bottom of the base plate and latches
the plate to the track. The chock can thus be installed in and removed
from the track merely by manually positioning the latching member. A wheel
of the cycle is fitted into the chock with its lower portions kept from
moving sideways by the side arms of the chock and with the middle portion
of the wheel prevented from moving longitudinally in a forward direction
by the cross arm.
