Abstract

La présente invention concerne un pointeur mécanique à auto-alignement (10), qui comprend un cadre (12) fixé à l'avant d'un véhicule (14). Une roue de guidage (16) montée rotative sur un support de roue (18), roule sur la surface d'une route. Ce support de roue (18) est relié à un bras oscillant (20), qui pivote sur le cadre (12) au niveau d'un point (22). Une partie de liaison (24) réglable relie ce bras oscillant (20) à un second bras oscillant (26). Une tige de guidage (28) offre une vision à un opérateur afin qu'il puisse aligner le pointeur (10) sur une cible déterminée.
