Abstract
A wheel chock system includes a hydraulic assembly coupled to a vehicle. Adjustment arms are mounted adjacent each tire, each adjustment arm having a proximal end operatively coupled to the hydraulic assembly and a distal end adjacent a road-encountering surface of a respective tire, the pair of adjustment arms being movable between deployed released configurations upon operation of the hydraulic assembly. A pair of chocks is coupled to respective second ends of the adjustment arms, the chocks being situated in contact with a respective vehicle tire at the deployed configuration and displaced from the respective vehicle tire at the extended configuration. An actuator is operatively coupled to the hydraulic assembly and configured to actuate the adjustment arms to move between deployed and released configurations. Sensors cause automatic deployment of the chocks when the vehicle ignition is turned off, when the gear is parked, and when the driver leaves his seat.
