In the present invention, a non-pneumatic tire (1) includes an inner cylinder attachable to an axle shaft, an outer cylinder (4) configured to surround the inner cylinder from the outside in a tire radial direction, a linking member (3) configured to link the inner cylinder to the outer cylinder (4), and a tread member (5) externally fitted onto the outer cylinder (4). The outer cylinder (4) includes an outer circumferential section (41) positioned on a tire equatorial line, side sections (42) positioned on both sides in a tire width direction with respect to the outer circumferential section (41), and a shoulder section (43) configured to connect the outer circumferential section (41) to the side sections (42). The tread member (5) covers the outer circumferential section (41), the side sections (42), and the shoulder section (43), and the shoulder section (43) is chamfered.

A wheel and tire assembly for a mobile vehicle in accordance with the present invention includes an inner central rim, a flexible ring mounted on the inner central rim, and a spoke structure extending between the inner central rim and the flexible ring. The spoke structure defines a plurality of cavities and alternating radially extending openings disposed concentrically about the inner central rim and allowing the flexible ring to deflect under load. The spoke structure further defines a plurality of triangular openings disposed at the flexible ring and between the cavities and the inlet openings.

A non-pneumatic tire is provided that has a hub with a central axis. A supporting structure is located outward from the hub in a radial direction, and a shear band is located outward from the supporting structure in the radial direction. Tread is located outward from the shear band in the radial direction. A static discharge element extends from a first radial end of the supporting structure to a second radial end of the supporting structure. The first radial end is located closer to the central axis than the second radial end in the radial direction. The static discharge element is electrically conductive to conduct electricity through the supporting structure.

A wheel is disclosed that includes an inner hub, an outer rim, and a plurality of resilient elements that exhibit a first spring constant that is the same for all elements, and a second spring constant that is higher than the first spring constant for elements being compressed beyond a threshold deflection.

This disclosure concerns wheels for industrial vehicles, including scissor lift vehicles and aerial platform vehicles. More particularly, this disclosure concerns a wheel fabricated with a substantially cylindrical wheel rim and a front face surface which includes a center hub section that is inwardly offset from the front edge by an amount and at an angle providing flexibility to recover from incidences that can damage the wheel.
