The present invention relates to a method and a device for adjusting the wheel alignment parameters of the wheels of a vehicle, wherein at least one vehicle axle is gripped by one gripping device per wheel axle, near the wheel flanges of the corresponding axle. According to the present invention, the gripping devices are moved by means of controllable drive means in such a way that the wheel alignment parameters of the wheels are adjusted via the orientation of the gripping devices.

1. Method for adjusting the wheel alignment parameters of the wheels of a vehicle, at least one vehicle axle being gripped by one gripping device (2) per wheel axle, near the wheel flanges of the axle in question, characterized in that, when the securing means have been released to allow adjustment of the wheel alignment parameters, the gripping devices (2) are moved via controllable drive means (7, 8) in such a way (4, 5) that the wheel alignment parameters of the wheels are adjusted via the orientation of the gripping devices (2). 2. Method according to claim 1, characterized in that, in a first step, the axle (1) is positioned in the gripping devices (2) while the drive means (7, 8) are not activated, that in a further step, the axle's (1) securing means for the wheel alignment parameters are released from their locked position, that in the next step, the gripping devices (2) are adjusted, via the controllable drive means (7, 8), according to the specified values of the wheel alignment parameters and are locked in this position, that in a consecutive step the axle's (1) securing means for the wheel alignment parameters are locked in position again and that the gripping devices (2) are then released again in the following step. 3. Method according to claim 1, characterized in that, in the case of an axle fitted in a vehicle (201), the weight of the vehicle (201) is supported by load-bearing elements (202, 203). 4. Method according to claim 1, characterized in that the drive means (7, 8) for the gripping devices (2) are able to move in such a way as to allow them to follow the adjustment movements during orientation of the gripping devices (2). 5. Method according to claim 4, characterized in that the weight of those parts of the axle (301) that are not moved during orientation of the gripping devices (2) is supported by load-bearing elements (302, 303). 6. Device for carrying out the method, as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, of adjusting the wheel alignment parameters of the wheels of a vehicle, the device having a gripping device for gripping an axle by means of one gripping device per axle, near the wheel flanges of the axle in question, characterized in that, when the securing means have been released to allow adjustment of the wheel alignment parameters, the gripping devices (2) can be moved via controllable drive means (7, 8) in such a way that the wheel alignment parameters of the wheels are adjusted via the orientation of the gripping devices (2). 7. The device of claim 6, characterized in that each of the gripping devices (2) can be rotated about two axes (4, 5) via the controllable drive means (7, 8). 8. The device of claim 6, characterized in that load-bearing elements (202, 203) are provided which, in the case of an axle fitted in a vehicle (201), support the weight of the vehicle (201). 9. The device claim 6, characterized in that the drive means (7, 8) for the gripping devices (2) are movably supported in such a way as to allow them to follow the adjustment movements during orientation of the gripping devices (2). 10. The device of claim 9, characterized in that load-bearing elements (302, 303) are provided, which support the weight of those parts of the axle (301) that are not moved during orientation of the gripping devices (2).
