Abstract: The present invention provides a wheel and manufacturing method of the same which make it possible to prevent the formation of indentations along the hump parts in the inner circumferential surface of the rim. In a wheel which comprises a cylindrical rim consisting of a rolled metal plate, and in which hump parts that are used to lock the inner circumferential edge part of the tire are disposed circumferentially so that these hump parts protrude to the outside in the vicinity of the end part of the outer circumferential surface of the rim on at least the design surface side, the outer hump part is formed to have an increased thickness by damming so that this outer hump part protrudes outward while the inner circumferential surface of the rim that corresponds to the outer hump part is formed into a flat circumferential surface.

Abstract: A method for producing a bicycle wheel rim is disclosed. The method involves extruding a thin-walled, hollow body having the cross-sectional shape of the rim and an integral external tab. The walls of the hollow body are sufficiently thin that a length of the hollow body without the external tab is subject to buckling when roll formed to produce a rim. The tab is so positioned and sized that the hollow body with the integral external tab is not subject to buckling when roll formed. A portion of the extrusion is then rolled to a circular shape; the circular portion is cut from the extrusion; the free ends are connected, and the external tab is removed.

Abstract: Bicycle wheel rims with internally reinforced spoke seats are disclosed along with methods for producing them. The rims are produced from a rim blank with at least one circumferentially extending spoke attachment region that has a relatively uniform given thickness. Access holes are formed in an upper web of the rim blank and tooling is positioned above and below the spoke attachment region to form a reinforced spoke seat and a spoke hole therein. Material that is upset and moved from the location of the spoke hole is displaced into an annular region where it reinforces the spoke hole. Material in the vicinity of the spoke hole can be displaced towards the inside of the rim and material can be removed from the undisplaced portions of the spoke region leaving a reinforced area around the spoke hole.

Abstract: A metal mold for electromagnetic forming, with the inner peripheral face thereof, serving as a forming face, is disposed on the outer peripheral side of a columnar workpiece, and a coil for electromagnetic forming is disposed on the inner peripheral side of the columnar workpiece. In a state of a configuration as described, electric energy is thrown into the coil for the electromagnetic forming, and the columnar workpiece is caused to undergo flaring to be thereby pressed against the forming face of the metal mold for the electromagnetic forming, so as to be turned into a shape corresponding to the forming face by means of the electromagnetic forming, thus obtaining a wheel rim. A disc is welded to the wheel rim obtained, and curling is applied to outer edges of the wheel rim. With the adoption of a method of manufacturing an automotive wheel, a manufacturing process as a whole is enhanced in efficiency.

Abstract: Expanding apparatus and method for sizing a one-piece drop-center wheel rim having first and second ganged arrays of rim sizing die segments insertable into the rim from one side thereof, and a third array of rim sizing die segments insertable into the opposite side of the rim, all three arrays cooperating to form a complete array of die segments for expansion sizing of the rim. A single wedge mechanism moves the arrays radially outwardly to individually size the inboard bead seat, outboard bead seat and drop-center well zones of the rim in response to relative coaxial movement of the wedge and arrays in a rim expansion working stroke along a longitudinal axis of the wedge. The wedge includes an expansion cone mechanism comprising first, second and third cone cams respectively individually operably associated with the first, second and third die arrays for radially expanding the same in such working stroke. A set-up adjustment mechanism disposed interiorly of the wedge has three concentrically arranged lead screws individually threadably coupled to each of the cone cams for carrying and selectively positioning the same along the longitudinal axis of the wedge to thereby vary the set-up end limit of radially outward movement of the associated die segment array for a given relative working stroke of the wedge means and arrays. A gear drive coupled to the exterior end of each lead screw individually rotates, and is driven either manually or by the same servo motors operably coupled to each worm gear drive. Cone cam position sensors each develop a signal indicative of the axially adjusted set-up position of each associated cone cam. A signal processing control system utilizes the signals for controlling the servo motors to drive the cone cams and thereby control their adjusted set up positions.
