Wheel chock restraint system

A wheel chock restraint system, comprising

• a wheel chock;
• a supporting element mounted on a ground in a vicinity of a loading dock;
• a wheel chock support means connected to said chock;
• wherein a base portion of said chock is provided with a first engagement means, wherein said first engagement means are directed downwardly outwardly in relation to said loading dock, and wherein said supporting element is provided with a corresponding second engagement means, wherein said first engagement means are adapted to cooperate with said second engagement means, thus creating a retention force that applies no pressure on a wheel of a vehicle, said retention force is directed away from said loading dock and prevents said chock from sliding away when said vehicle makes an attempt to depart prematurely from said loading dock;
• wherein said wheel chock support means is adapted to assure a secure positioning of said chock under the wheel of said vehicle during loading and unloading operation;
• wherein said system further comprises an anti-theft locking means, wherein said locking means together with said first and second engagement means are adapted to securely lock said chock on the wheel of said vehicle and to prevent any unauthorized removal of said chock and theft of said vehicle, and
• wherein said locking means is activated remotely by an activating means, said activating means is adapted to lock said locking means against the wheel of said vehicle.
