NON-ROTATING CENTER CAP
The present invention provides a non-rotating center cap for use with vehicle wheel. The present invention comprises a support, an interlocking device, an ornamental object, and a sealer cap. The support is the part of the non-rotating center cap that affixes to the center bore of a vehicle wheel, the interlocking device is mounted in a depression formed on the support. The interlocking device biases the orientation and prevents the rotation of an ornamental object that is connected to it. The sealer cap is connected to the support, the sealer cap protects the ornamental object from water, dust, debris and oil, the sealer cap prevents movements of the ornamental object that could be caused by winds when the vehicle is in motion. The ornamental object does not rotate when the vehicle is in motion, which allows the ornamental object to be readily visible.
Automobile Wheel Cover
An automobile wheel cover includes a central hole, an adjusting block, a threaded element, and integrally formed with a bearing seat opposite an inner side of the central hole. An annular seat is extended from an inner side of the bearing seat and is defined with a plurality of slots, between each two slots is provided an elastic post. The adjusting block has a small diameter end and a large diameter end and is inserted in the annular seat via the small diameter end. The threaded element is threaded in the adjusting block via the bearing seat. Thereby, when screwing the threaded element, the large diameter end of the adjusting block moves in the annular seat to make the posts expanded outwardly and abutted against the shaft hole, which can apply to the automobile rims with different hole diameters and prevent the automobile wheel cover falling from the automobile rim.

DECORATIVE APPLIQUE WITH POLYMERIC OVER COATING AND METHOD OF APPLYING SAME
A vehicle wheel is defined by a substrate including a face and a rim portion. The face defines a plurality of spokes extending radially outwardly between a central portion of the face and the rim portion and defining a mating portion. An applique is affixed to the wheel at the mating portion. A polymer over-coating that is substantially transparent extends over the applique and the wheel substrate defining a continuous polymer surface over the applique and the wheel substrate.
TWIST AND LOCK MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE WHEEL COVER
A wheel cover assembly for a truck wheel includes a plate system adapted to mount on a wheel hub along existing wheel bolts. A convex cover slideably engages with the plate system. The convex cover has a generally planar fastening plate and an integrated skirt that tapers to an edge of the wheel. A plurality of pins are integrated with the plate system to receive the convex cover.
System, and apparatus for wheel decoration
A central cover for covering a concave central axle cut-out area of a wheel includes a frame that is generally cup-shaped having a round outer surface. the round outer surface has a circumference smaller than an inner circumference of the concave central axle cut-out area of the wheel so that the central cover seats in the concave central axle cut-out area. A permanent magnet is seated within the frame for holding the central cover to the wheel. The permanent magnet having a central cutout area for clearance of an axle bolt when the axle bolt is present.

WHEEL ASSEMBLY WITH COVER RETENTION SYSTEM
A wheel assembly includes a rim element having an annular configuration defining an axis, and a spider defining a central element circumscribing the axis with a plurality of spokes extending radially outwardly between the central element and the rim element. Adjacent of the spokes define an opening therebetween and are interconnected by a web circumscribing the opening. A cover defines a connector that is disposed over the spider concealing a portion of the spider and opening circumscribed by the web. The web defines a receptor configured to engage the connector thereby retaining the cover to the spider.
Light emitting wheel
The present invention provides a light emitting wheel, characterized in that, a light emitting device is attached to the light emitting wheel, the light emitting device is composed of a bulb, a first elastomer, a second elastomer, a power supply, a conducting wire and a protective cover. When a vehicle is started, the on-off state of the bulb can be controlled by a switch, the bulb will move towards a direction away from the center of the wheel hub, and a ring of light will be formed due to the phenomenon of persistence of vision. The higher the speed of the vehicle is, the larger the diameter of the ring of light is, so that the vehicle is driven with rich dynamic effect.
Wheel made out of fiber reinforced material and procedure to make an according wheel
The invention is directed to a wheel (1) which comprises a rim (4) and a thereto connected spoke structure (3) made out of fiber reinforced plastic material. An insert (2) is embedded in the fiber reinforced material at the center of the spoke structure (3). The insert (2) protrudes in at least one region above the surface of the fiber reinforced plastic material (16) forming at least one contact area (10, 14, 5).
