Abstract
A main module adapted to be attached to a wheel of a vehicle is disclosed, comprising a centre bolt, an expander and a locking mechanism. The main module is configured to be fitted with a blocking means configured to cover nuts or bolts of the wheel. The centre bolt is adapted to be connected to the main module by means of a threading such that the axial position of the centre bolt, as seen along the axis of rotation of the wheel, can be adjusted by rotating the centre bolt relative the main module, and such that the expander expands in a radial direction of the wheel as the axial position of the centre bolt is adjusted. The expander is thereby allowed to engage with the wheel to secure the module to said wheel.
