Electromagnetic Wheel Assembly

An electromagnetic wheel assembly includes a spindle that may be rotatably coupled to an axle of a vehicle. A wheel is removably positioned on the spindle. A hub is provided and the spindle is rotatably positioned in the hub. An electromagnet is coupled to the hub. The electromagnet is selectively turned on to magnetically engage the wheel thereby retaining the wheel on the disk. The electromagnet is embedded within the disk. A lock is movably coupled to the spindle. The lock is selectively urged into a locking position to inhibit the wheel from coming off of the spindle when the electromagnet fails. Additionally, the lock is selectively urged into an unlocked position to facilitate the wheel to be removed from the spindle.
