SPOKED WHEEL ALIGNERS AND METHOD FOR ALIGNING SPOKED WHEELS USING SAID ALIGNER

The invention relates to a spoked wheel aligner and to a method for aligning spoked wheels using said aligner, formed by a box body (3) containing a longitudinally mobile rod (4) which protrudes outside said body, the end of said rod (4) being provided with a disk (5) having a system for detecting the angular position thereof, while the rod (4) has a system for detecting the position of the longitudinal movement thereof, such that by supporting the disk (5) on a side or on the periphery of the rim of a wheel, according to the rotation of said disk (5) and the longitudinal movements of the rod (4) the areas of the wheel which are laterally misaligned or present a deviation from roundness are determined in order to correct same.
