1. An aircraft wheel comprising a hub connected to a rim provided with a tire, the hub having an outer surface that extends facing an inner surface of the rim and that co-operates therewith to define an annular space for receiving a stack of brake disks including rotor disks having axial peripheral notches, each axial peripheral notch receiving a segment of an axial bar extending projecting from the inner surface of the rim, and respective heat shields, each in the form of an annular segment, being mounted between two axial bars of respective pairs of adjacent axial bars,
wherein each heat shield includes at least one holder portion bearing against at least one first abutment secured to the rim in order to hold the heat shield in position on the rim elastically, and the at least one holder portion and the at least one first abutment are arranged to be put into engagement substantially radially relative to the rim.
