Disclosed is a vehicle support device comprising a polygonal surface which may be affixed to a front edge of an at least one circumferential plate (110) or to a midline of an at least one circumferential plate (110). The polygonal surface (105) may be a pentagon polygon having five sides, a hexagon polygon having six sides, an octagon polygon having eight sides, or any polygonal shape. The polygonal front surface may have an at least one asymmetrical side. The polygonal front surface (105) may have a plurality of lug bolt supports (120), which may have five lug bolt supports (120), seven lug bolt supports (120), eight lug bolt supports (120), or twelve lug bolt supports (120). The vehicle support device may have an axle support centerline (125), a vehicle support device centerline (130), and an non-zero centerline offset (135) between the axle support centerline (125) and the vehicle support centerline (130) to provide for offset alignment of the vehicle support device in a vehicle wheel well. The vehicle support device may be used to support any wheeled automobile, trailer or tractor, to provide levelness and stability of the vehicle, prevent UV and time or gravity-caused degradation of the tires, and extend the life of the tires, and on other vehicles with modification. For most automobiles, trailers, and tractors, the vehicle support device may replace one or more of the tires and wheels on an axle to securely and solidly support the vehicle on ground or a on concrete pad.

A NEW GENERATION PASSENGER VEHICLE STEEL WHEEL
20200156404 · 2020-05-21 · ·

The present invention provides a new style or design for a steel wheel 200 in passenger vehicle with improvement in performance and aesthetics. In the new design of the steel wheel 200, a vent-hole outer region 214 is folded 206 inwardly to form two ends, wherein one end is welded to an outboard bead seat 212 of the steel wheel rim and the other end welded to a portion of an outboard flange portion 204. The inward folding 206 of the vent hole outer region 214 increases the vent-hole 205 area and thereby improves better air flow and cooling of a brake drum. The passenger vehicle steel wheel 200 design enables for spot welding throughout the circumference of the rim-disc contact surface for better contact and higher load/moment transfer. Further, the passenger vehicle steel wheel 200 may utilize an existing rim without any special machining or modification.

Vehicle wheel hub

The application relates to a wheel hub for vehicle, which comprises a flange, a rim, a spoke, a central hole, and bolt bores distributed around the central hole. According to the disclosure, the flange on the wheel front side is affixed with an extension part comprising a radial extension magnitude extending to the outer periphery of the wheel hub and an axial extension magnitude extending to the wheel front side, the extension part comprises a plurality of sections circumferentially distributed along the flange, so as to form on the wheel front side an envelope circle having a diameter size increased by twice the radial extension magnitude. The present disclosure further satisfies the additional needs of the user with respect to the overall design of the wheel.
