Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rad, insbesondere für Fahrzeuge wie Kraftfahrzeuge, mit einem eine Öffnung aufweisenden Felgenring und mit einem zumindest teilweise in der Öffnung des Felgenrings angeordneten Grundträger. Die Aufgabe, ein Rad anzugeben, welches trotz eines geringen Gewichts eine ausreichende Steifigkeit und Festigkeit bereitstellt und einfach herstellbar ist, wobei gleichzeitig eine Design-Flexibilität ermöglicht, wird bei einem gattungsgemäßen Rad dadurch gelöst, dass der Grundträger mehrere Speichen aufweist und mehrere Abdeckteile zur zumindest teilweisen Abdeckung der Speichen vorgesehen sind, wobei der Grundträger und die Abdeckteile den Felgenring tragen.
Abstract:
Carbon fiber bicycle wheels are formed from parts cut from carbon fiber cloth and then joined together to form a rim, sidewalls, spokes, flanges and a center tunnel on which the flanges are mounted. The parts are then assembled, bonded together, and cured to form a wheel. During assembly, the spokes and the wheel are placed in tension by moving the flanges outwardly on the center tunnel after assembly and then bonding them in place to stiffen and strengthen the wheel. The spokes of the drive side of the rear wheel are specially shaped to accommodate torque transfer forces generated by pedaling.
Abstract:
The present invention is related to an axle mount bracket (20) manufacturing method used to provide the connection of the wheel with the axle on vehicles. As an innovation, it comprises the following steps: cutting the box profile (10) into predetermined length according to desired axle mount bracket (20) height to be obtained; cutting the box profile (10) along a cutting line (30) on the side walls (12) and obtaining two axle mount brackets (20) from one box profile (10) piece.
Abstract:
A method for balancing a wheel comprises at least the steps of extruding a profile of an uncured and/or non-vulcanized viscoelastic polymer comprising at least one filler having a total density of more than 0.9 kg/dm3, cutting a section from an extruded profile of said polymer, wherein the length of the section correlates with the required mass for balancing, applying the balancing weight to the rim of the wheel, and curing of the balancing weight at the wheel.
Abstract:
A composite wheel device wherein a plurality of auxiliary wheels (31) supported rotatably about axes in directions identical with tangent lines of a circular rim portion (12) of a wheel are provided on the circular rim portion so as to form a tire (40), and rotation of the tire and rotations of the auxiliary wheels are combined together so as to make the wheel run in a desirable direction.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a hollow axle shaft, which transmits rotational motion from a prime mover to a wheel of a vehicle, comprises the steps of providing the elongated member (22) comprising a material, forming a bore (30) extending partially through the elongated member by removing a portion of the material along the axis from the second end (26) toward the first end (24), and forming the flange (28) with the material at the first end (24).
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Omnidirektional-Rad, aufweisend eine Radnabe (7), die um eine Rotationsachse (RT) drehbar ist, zwei mit der Radnabe (7) verbundene Radscheiben (8a, 8b), die koaxial zur Radnabe (7) angeordnet sind, eine Anzahl von balligen Rollkörpern (6), die zwischen den Radscheiben (8a, 8b) angeordnet, gleichmäßig entlang eines Umfangsmantels des Rades (5a-5d) verteilt, mit ihren Rollachsen (RA) in einem Diagonalwinkel zur Rotationsachse (RT) der Radnabe (7) ausgerichtet und an ihren gegenüberliegenden Enden frei drehbar bezüglich der Radscheiben (8a, 8b) gelagert sind. Um ein Omnidirektional-Rad unter Beibehaltung von gegenüberliegenden Radscheiben zu schaffen, das robust ist gegenüber Betriebsanforderungen, wird vorgeschlagen, die Rollkörper (6) an Aufnahmebauteilen (9) frei drehbar zu lagern und die Aufnahmebauteile (9) an den Radscheiben (8a, 8b) zu befestigen.
Abstract:
A fabricated vehicle axle is shown to include a main body having an inverted U-shaped configuration. The fabricated vehicle axle further includes a continuous bottom plate welded to the main body. The fabricated axle also includes a first king pin top plate having a reversed curved fork portion welded to the main body at one end thereof. Similarly, the fabricated vehicle axle includes a second king pin top plate having a reversed curved fork portion welded to the main body at an opposite end thereof. Still further, the fabricated vehicle axle includes a first gooseneck part welded to the first king pin top plate and the first end of the bottom plate. Similarly, the fabricated vehicle axle includes a second gooseneck part welded to the second king pin top plate and the second end of the bottom plate.
Abstract:
A wheel assembly (2) and method of assembling the same for use with an airless or non-pneumatic tyre (4), said assembly including a rim member (8) and at least one locking or retaining member (6). Said rim member including a first portion at least part of which is adapted to be attached to an axle in use, and at least part of said locking member is configured to detachably attach to at least part of the first portion of the rim member. Attachment to the rim member assists in retaining the tyre in position on rim member and/or the wheel assembly in use.
