Variable aerodynamic wheel and control system thereof
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.

SNAP-ON AUTOMOTIVE WHEEL COVER OVERLAY WITH EXTENDED SURROUND AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
An improved snap-on automotive wheel cover overlay with extended overlay and method for manufacturing the same, wherein when snapped in place over an existing damaged manufacturer's wheel cover, the wheel cover overlay with extended surround of the present invention, in addition to the presence of hook-shaped members for the purpose of securing the former to the latter, is further secured by inserting a tension rotation device from the reversed position of a tire into a manufactured in wheel cover overlay tension tabs assembly, such that tension rotation device prongs of a tension rotation device penetrate through a tension rotation device prong's corresponding openings. Said tension tab rotation device is secured in said tension tabs assembly by the use of a tension rotation device fastener, after which an automobile emblem support device with tension tabs corresponding to a tension tab guide plate slits is inserted to further secure the wheel cover overlay with extended surround of the present invention to an existing damaged manufacturer's wheel cover.

An improved snap-on automotive wheel cover overlay with extended surround having hook-shaped members for the purpose of securing the wheel cover overlay of the present invention to a damaged manufacturer's wheel cover. The wheel cover overlay of the present invention is further secured by inserting a tension rotation device from the reversed position of a tire into a manufactured in wheel cover overlay tension tabs assembly, and having an extended surround covering the entire rim of a vehicle when installed there on. During manufacturing of the present invention, a three dimensional (3D) scanned imaging of the individual embodiment component parts is generated, after rigorous testing, and is transferred to an injection molding computer to generate the injection molding designed precisely corresponding to each individual component parts of the present invention.
Center lock simulated cap assembly for an automobile wheel
An automobile wheel having a hub and a cap assembly configured to removably attach to the hub is provided herein. The cap assembly includes a base component, a lug hole cover, and a center cap. The base component is removably coupled to the hub, and includes a cylindrical portion with an outer threaded surface that extends outward from the hub when the base component is coupled to the hub. The lug hole cover removably fits over the cylindrical portion of the base component to cover the plurality of lug hole openings of the hub. Additionally, the center cap is removably coupled to the base component and retain the lug hole cover against the hub.
