摘要:
The many embodiments of the present invention comprise a device to simulate first order and higher-order tire non-uniformity forces. Some embodiments may comprise a wheel adapter adapted to attach to a vehicle wheel, rotate in a first rotational direction, and to couple to a gearbox; a weight retaining member adapted to be coupled to the gearbox, wherein the gearbox is adapted to rotate the weight retaining member in a second rotational direction or at a second rotational speed in the first and second rotational directions; and a rotation restriction member adapted to attach to the gearbox and to restrict the gearbox from rotating. Other devices and methods are also claimed and described.
