A device for protecting the tire of a wheel, includes a shield having a polymer material; a crown for mounting the protection device on a rim of the wheel, the crown being secured to the shield and including: a connection portion for securely connecting the crown to the shield; a mounting portion, forming a single piece with the connection portion, provided with a plurality of orifices for mounting the crown on the rim, the mounting portion including a plurality of lug-shaped protuberances distributed along the circumference of the mounting portion while being angularly spaced from each other, each protuberance radially protruding towards the center of the crown and comprising an orifice.

A depth gauge wheel for a row planter. The depth gauge wheel sets the planting depth for the seeds planted by the row planter. The depth gauge wheel sets planting depth by setting the cutting depth of the disk opener of the row planter. The depth gauge wheel also scrapes mud from the disk blade of the disk opener. The depth gauge wheel includes a rim, a tire attached to the rim and a ring attached to the rim. The tire contacts the surface of the ground to set the cutting depth of the disk opener and the ring scrapes mud from the disk blade of the disk opener.

A surface shield for an underlying object is disclosed. The surface shield includes a first structure. The first structure has an inner surface and an outer surface. The outer surface includes a plurality of slots. The inner surface is in contact with an underlying surface to be protected. The first structure includes one of a single-part structure or a multi-part structure. The surface shield includes a plurality of clamps removably coupled to the slots of the first structure. Each clamp is coupled to a corresponding slot of the first structure.

A wheel for a non-motorized vehicle (e.g., a shopping cart) can include a housing assembly and a tread assembly. The housing assembly can be configured to sealingly house electronics or other components. The tread assembly can removably mate with the housing assembly such that the electronics or other components remain closed and/or sealed within the housing assembly when the tread assembly is mated or unmated with the housing assembly.

A wheel guard includes a guard member disposed on a compactor wheel. The guard member has a first side having a first portion and a second portion. The second portion is offset from the first portion such that to define a first stepped recess therein. The guard member has a second side disposed opposite to the first side. The first portion has a first cross-sectional thickness and the second portion has a second cross-sectional thickness such that the second cross-sectional thickness is lesser than the first cross-sectional thickness. The guard member has a first top surface defined by the first portion, and a second top surface defined by the second portion and partially by the first portion. The second top surface is offset from the first top surface such that to define a second stepped recess therein. The wheel guard includes a base plate and a wear pad coupled thereto.

Hubcap (1) for a wheel (2) with a floating tyre seat, the said wheel (2) having a rim comprising a tyre seat (253) extended axially outwards by a flange (254), the tyre seats (253) being radially floating, the said hubcap comprising a central edge (11) and an exterior periphery (12), in which the said central edge (11) comprises fixing elements for attaching to the rigid part of the wheel and in which the said central edge (11) is connected to the said exterior periphery (12) by an intermediate sector that is deformable so that the exterior periphery (12) can be moved at least radially inwards with respect to the central edge (11).
