An insert element for a vehicle wheel comprises several supporting bodies for supporting the insert element on supporting surfaces of the vehicle wheel. The supporting bodies have a supporting shoulder, which can be brought to bear against a supporting surface of the vehicle wheel, and a fastening extension with an axial hollow channel and with at least one outwardly protruding locking projection, arranged at an axial distance from the supporting shoulder, for engaging behind an installation opening reaching through the supporting surface of the vehicle wheel. The supporting bodies are designed as elastomer components which are elastically deformable in the radial and axial direction and sit with their hollow channel on a supporting core. The supporting cores bear a radially protruding retaining flange and are held on the rear side on the insert element.

Each supporting body is held by the retaining flange in a form-fitting manner against being pulled off from the supporting core.

A variable aerodynamic wheel includes: a spoke wheel having a plurality of spokes connecting a hub and a rim together are spaced apart from each other, and a plurality of through spaces defined between the plurality of spokes to allow air to pass therethrough; a variable flap rotatably disposed in the plurality of through spaces of the spoke wheel, and configured in a shape to cover an associated through space so as to open or close the associated through space according to a rotation angle thereof; and a drive unit disposed in the spoke wheel, and connected to the variable flap such that the rotation angle of the variable flap is adjusted as rotational power is transmitted.

A wheel cover assembly for a vehicle wheel is provided. The wheel cover assembly includes a mounting apparatus and a wheel cover. The mounting apparatus is adapted for mounting on lug nuts of a vehicle wheel. The mounting apparatus is adjustable in both axial and radial directions. Dual quick release connections releasably connect the wheel cover to the mounting apparatus. The wheel cover may include a plurality of ventilation openings, and a plurality of radially extending fan blades may be disposed on an inner surface of the wheel cover.

A wheel for a vehicle has a wheel rim, a hub portion, and at least one spoke which connects the hub portion to the wheel rim, and also at least one cover element which at least partially covers the spoke region. The cover element is designed to, in the installed position thereof, produce an imbalance-free state of the wheel.

Emblem for vehicles, comprising a decoration layer; at least one lighting element that illuminates the decoration layer; an electrical power generator that feeds electric power to the at least one lighting element, wherein the electrical power generator includes a rotor comprising a support disc for at least one magnet; and a stator comprising at least one printed circuit board provided with windings. It permits to provide an emblem in which a power generator is optimized to be compatible in the axial direction with the available space, which is very small behind the front cover.

The present disclosure is directed to a wheel cover that is coupled to a wheel of a vehicle utilizing a mounting assembly that has a bearing block. A retainer assembly in combination with the bearing block of the mounting assembly allows the wheel cover to be coupled to the wheel in a manner such that the wheel cover does not rotate with the forward and backward rotation of the wheel when the vehicle is being driven. The wheel cover covers the wheel and partially covers a gap or space between a tire of the wheel and a fender of the vehicle, which increases the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle. The retainer assembly provides at least one degree of freedom such that the wheel cover may move with the wheel when steering the vehicle in a leftward direction and a rightward direction.
