20090039699 | Complex wheel rim assembly structure - A complex wheel rim assembly structure contains a hub, a front member, a rear member, a leak-proof O-ring, and plural assembly members. The hub includes plural radial plates and assembly holes. An inward folding edge is close to a central hole of the front member and has plural assembly holes, and an outward expanding edge is at an exterior side of the front member. An inward folding edge is close to a central hole of the rear member and has plural assembly holes, and an outward expanding edge is at an exterior side of the rear member. Grooves are at exterior sides of the inward folding edges of the front and rear members, the leak-proof O-ring is between the two inward folding edges of the front and rear members, and the wheel rim is assembled through the plural assembly members. | 02-12-2009 |
20100276987 | Adjustable Weighted Wheel Assembly - The application discloses a wheel assembly comprising a wheel comprising a main body, a substantially cylindrical wall, a front hub face comprising a central portion connecting a hub to an outer rim, wherein the front hub face comprises a socket for receiving a removable weight, wherein the socket or the weight is configured with a stop for preventing the weight from dislodging from the socket; a back face comprising a back central portion connecting the hub to the back outer rim; and the wheel assembly comprising at least one fastener for securing the weigh in the socket on the main body of the wheel. | 11-04-2010 |
20110006590 | Bicycle rim - A rim includes an external ring and an internal ring. The external ring includes two walls each including a brake-contacting face, a middle portion interconnecting the walls, a bead-receiving groove defined by the walls and the intermediate portion, two external flanges extending from the middle portion opposite to the walls, two internal flanges extending from the middle portion opposite to the walls. An edge-receiving groove is defined between each of the external flanges and a related one of the internal flanges. The internal ring includes two walls and an intermediate portion interconnecting the walls. Each of the walls of the internal ring includes an edge inserted in a related one of the edge-receiving grooves, a shoulder abutted against. a related one of the external flanges, and an external side in flush with the brake-contacting face of a related one of the walls of the external ring. | 01-13-2011 |
20110057503 | WHEEL DISASSEMBLY SAFETY DEVICE - The instant invention is a pressure release safety system for a multi-piece wheel rim and tubeless tire combination, teaching designs for automatically relieving/releasing pressure as part of its disassembly. In this invention, fastening elements used to hold together portions of a wheel rim are provided with a blocking device or devices that prevents loosening and/or removal of fastening elements until said blocking device is first moved from a blocking position, where movement of the blocking device from its blocking position directly or indirectly opens or requires the opening of a pressure relief channel or channels—allowing, enabling and effecting depressurization of the sealed pressure vessel. When applied in the context of a tubeless two-piece wheel/tire assembly, the invention advantageously may include a blocking or safety device (typically in the form of a ring) that covers all or a critical portion of the nuts/studs that hold the two piece wheel together. The act of removing the safety ring so as to access and remove the nuts from the studs to disassemble the wheel, opens an air channel in communication with the tire interior so as to allow pressure to escape from the tire interior. | 03-10-2011 |
20110198916 | AUTOMOBILE WHEEL - A front flange portion formed at an outer peripheral edge portion of a wheel disc includes an annular front peripheral portion provided on a design surface side and an annular back peripheral portion folded backward from the annular front peripheral portion to extend radially inwardly and in surface contact with a back surface of the annular from peripheral portion, and the annular front peripheral portion and the annular back peripheral portion are integrally inclined to the surface side. Therefore, the front flange portion can mitigate stress concentration on the front flange portion due to a load generated while the automobile is running. In addition, the front flange portion has, because of its shape, high durability against a radially inward load generated by a contact with a curbstone or the like. | 08-18-2011 |
20120235466 | RIM WITH RECESSES FOR CONNECTING SPOKES - A rim includes a first connection bridge, a second connection bridge and two walls connected to two sides of the first and second connection bridges. Multiple through holes are defined through the second connection bridge and multiple seats are defined in the first connection bridge and located corresponding to the through holes. Each seat has a recess facing the second connection bridge and an installation hole is defined through each of the seats. Multiple engaging members each have a passage and are respectively engaged with the installation holes. Each of the engaging members is matched with the recess and has a contact surface so that the head of the spoke is securely connected to contact surface. The connection between the spokes and the rim dispenses stress to the engaging members. | 09-20-2012 |
20120235467 | RIM ASSEMBLY WITH PADS AND CONNECTION MEMBERS TO CONNECT SPOKES - A rim assembly includes a rim having a first connection bridge and a second connection bridge, and two walls extend from two sides of the first and second connection bridges. The first and second connection bridges each have multiple installation holes. A pad unit includes multiple pads and each pad has a through hole. The pads are located on a surface of the first connection bridge and the through holes are in alignment with the installation holes. Multiple connection members each have a passage, the connection members respectively extend through the installation holes and the through holes. The spokes are securely connected to the passages. The thickness of the rim is thin and the pads reinforce the connection positions where the spokes are connected. | 09-20-2012 |
20140265537 | WHEEL RIM - In a multi-piece wheel rim assembly for ATV, RTV AND UTV industrial vehicle, the wheel assembly includes a rim base, removable flange and a lock ring. In various embodiments, the rim base and removable flange may be made from aluminum and the lock ring from steel. The lock ring may be made from a one or two piece construction. When the lock ring is made from two pieces, such as two pieces of steel, the lock ring may incorporate removable locking tabs to retain the lock ring within a recess formed in the rim base. | 09-18-2014 |
20160059624 | RESONATOR DEVICE AND VEHICLE WHEEL ASSEMBLY INCLUDING THE SAME - In one or more embodiments, a resonator device includes a first chamber including a first leg portion extending in a longitudinal direction and a first shoulder extending in a transverse direction, and a second chamber positioned next to the first chamber at least partially along the longitudinal direction. The second chamber may include a second shoulder portion positioned next to the first leg portion and a second leg portion positioned next to the first shoulder portion. | 03-03-2016 |
