Patent ID: 7093632

Claim:
A dual-wheel valve stem stabilizing clip for mounting on an outer rim of a dual truck wheel to immobilize a reverse-mounted valve mounted on an inner rim of a dual truck wheel comprising: a) a pair of U-shaped spring brackets, each having an S-shaped outer distal end with said brackets juxtapositioned on top of each other having the outer distal ends opposed, wherein each bracket further having a plurality of adjustment holes therethrough such that the holes align with each other when placed together, thereby permitting a variation in overall length, b) a spring doubler shim configured in a U-shape having extending legs, said shim positioned on top of each spring bracket adjacent to said outer distal end, said shim further having a single mounting hole in each leg configured to interface with a specifically selected spring bracket adjustment hole for adjusting the desired length to fit a specific truck wheel and to provide additional rigidity to the spring brackets, c) a valve stem cushion compressed within said spring brackets and shim legs for tightly receiving and securing the reverse-mounted valve, and d) a plurality of threaded fasteners attaching said spring brackets and shims together to form a clip capable of being manually bent in an arc shape and snapped into a hand hole of the outer rim of the dual truck wheel to stabilize the reverse-mounted valve stem.
