Abstract: Disclosed are a method, apparatus and tool for the manufacture of a deep-bed wheel rim from a hollow cylindrical preform. In the method the metal preform is shaped to the deep-bed rim in a single mounting on a single tool of several parts, and the constriction of the middle part of the preform to make the bed is performed with concentric rotation of tool and preform. The side portions of the preform are widened to make the bead flanges by a radial shifting of the axis of rotation of the preform together with a tool part shifting appropriately in the plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation to make the bed and the bead seat. The pressing at least during the widening takes place inwardly in a single radial direction, the direction of the axial shift corresponding to the pressing direction. The invention furthermore relates to an apparatus for the practice of the method. According to the invention, this apparatus is a pressing machine with two spindles which bear a tool in common. This tool has a part which is displaceable in a plane perpendicular to the spindles' axis of rotation.

Abstract: An improved aluminum wheel is disclosed having a two-part construction with a disc at a front position and a rim extending to a rear position. The disc comprises all the portions of the wheel that are visible from the front and thus is the only portion that is chrome-plated. The rim is formed from a double rim member that is cut at a central position to form two rims. Substantial savings in machinery, manufacturing, and material costs are realized by this arrangement.

Abstract: A tire rim structure and method of manufacture in which rows of sharply edged or pointed projections are integrally provided on the ear portions or bead seat portions of the rim. In accordance with the preferred embodiments of the invention, the projections may be pyramid shaped, triangular prism shaped or sawtooth shaped. The projections may be formed by applying a triangularly toothed roller or a grinding device to elongated ridges formed on the tire rim during an otherwise conventional extrusion process for obtaining a smooth tire rim.

Abstract: A profiled vehicle wheel rim is manufactured by spirally winding a continuous strip of ductile sheet metal onto a profiled former, with an adhesive interposed between the turns, under forces which deform the strip from the flat state to adopt the shape of the former. In a preferred construction a disc for the wheel is interposed between two axially separable parts of the former so that the windings bend down over the axial extremities of the periphery of the disc, thus entrapping it in an annular channel of the formed rim.

Abstract: An improved method of making vehicle wheel rims particularly suitable for use with materials having relatively low ductility, such as aluminum, is disclosed. A circumferential drop center well is formed about the periphery of the band and work hardened so that the well material exhibits higher strength and lower ductility than the remaining band material. The strength and ductility differential between the well and band material adjacent thereto assists in confining material movement in subsequent rim forming operations and induces drawing of the rim bead seat area material.

Abstract: A wheel rim is formed from a cylindrical blank in an apparatus including a female die with a profiled, internal die cavity for receiving the blank and a male die, which includes a pair of shafts with eccentric portions carrying rollers for sequentially bearing against the blank to gradually form a wheel rim. During formation of the wheel rim, the female die, which is mounted on a turntable, is rotated while the male die is stationary. The blank is held between a ring portion of the male die and the central portion of the female die. The shafts carrying the rollers are independently rotatable, so that only one set of rollers actively forms the rim at any time during formation.
