Abstract: A multi-piece wheel mold defining a mold cavity having a wheel rim cavity and a wheel disc cavity includes a large mass of metal adjacent to the outboard end of the wheel rim cavity and a small mass of metal adjacent to the inboard end of the wheel rim cavity. The mold also includes tapered side segments having a portion adjacent to the inboard end of the wheel rim cavity which is formed from a metal having a first conductivity of heat transfer. The side segments further have a second portion adjacent to the outboard end of the wheel rim cavity which is formed from a second metal having a second conductivity of heat transfer which is greater than the conductivity of heat transfer of the first portion. Molten metal in the mold cavity initially begins to solidify in the outboard end of the wheel rim cavity. Solidification of the molten metal then proceeds simultaneously in an axial direction across the wheel rim cavity towards the inboard end of the wheel rim and in a radial direction across the wheel disc cavity towards the center of wheel disc.

Abstract: A plated vehicle wheel having non-plated tire bead seats and a process for forming same. The process includes masking a portion of the tire bead seats before plating the wheel. The process also includes forming the tire bead seats with an oversized diameter. Following plating, the tire bead seats are machined to a final diameter. The process can further include thermally depositing a layer of a ceramic material over a portion of the tire bead seat surface. The plating does not adhere to the ceramic material.

Abstract: A method for heat treating a metal component uses a first heating system having a first high intensity heating portion to rapidly heat the component to a desired temperature and a second heating portion to maintain the component temperature for solution heat treatment. The heating system is an indexing-type system which includes a plurality of individual heating stations to effect solution heat treatment of the component. Following quenching, a second heating system having a first high intensity heating portion to rapidly heat the component to a desired temperature and a second heating portion to maintain the component temperature artificially ages the component.

Abstract: A light weight cast metal wheel having a disk-shaped wheel disk formed across an annular wheel rim and including a reinforcing layer of a metal matrix composite extending radially across the wheel disk. The reinforcing layer also can extend axially across a portion of the wheel rim. The metal matrix composite layer is formed by securing a preform formed from a reinforcing material within the wheel mold prior to casting the wheel. The use of a preform assures that the resulting reinforcing layer is uniform.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a vehicle wheel having a wheel rim mechanically rolled onto a wheel disc. The wheel disc includes at least one continuous circumferential bead or groove. During the rolling operation a complementary groove or bead is formed in the wheel rim. The bead is received by the groove to mechanically secure to the wheel rim to the wheel disc. A resilient material including an adhesive is disposed between the wheel disc and the wheel rim. The adhesive bonds the wheel rim to the wheel disc while the resilient material forms air-tight seal therebetween.

Abstract: A layer of material is thermally sprayed onto a portion of the surface of a vehicle wheel rim drop well with an arc plasma spray gun. Before spraying, the drop well surface is prepared by removing any dirt, oil and oxides. The sprayed layer has a greater density than the metal forming the wheel rim and reduces the porosity of the drop well.
