Tone ring mounting structure for an antilock braking system comprising a wheel end assembly rotatable component having at least a first end surface and a first engagement mechanism extending radially and non-cantilevered from the rotatable component, and a tone ring having a second end surface and a second engagement mechanism extending radially from the tone ring. Connecting engagement of the first engagement mechanism of the wheel end assembly rotatable component and the second engagement mechanism of the tone ring affects movement of the second end surface in a direction toward the first end surface. The first engagement mechanism and the second engagement mechanism can be engageable threads. The first engagement mechanism can include lugs formed on the wheel end assembly rotatable component and the second engagement mechanism threads or wedge ramps engageable with the lugs. A corrosion resistant coating can be applied to components of the tone ring mounting structure.

A method for manufacturing a vehicle wheel of the present invention includes a step of performing an edge treatment including deburring of a spoke edge generated by lathe processing. For the edge treatment, a cutting tool as hale type tool for non-rotational processing is used, and the cutting tool is provided with a processing blade having a recessed blade edge having an R shape or polygonal C shape protruding from an outer peripheral surface on a side of a tip end of the rod-shaped cutting tool connected to a rod-shaped shank portion. A processing machine capable of CNC of four or more axes is used. With the cutting tool standing upright against a disc surface, the blade edge of the processing blade is applied to the spoke edge, and the cutting tool is continuously moved relative to the spoke edge along a ridgeline of the spoke edge for scraping.

A vehicle wheel includes a wheel disk, a wheel rim, and at least one connection element that connects the wheel disk to the wheel rim. The connection element is guided through a passage in the wheel rim and is joined in the wheel disk. A seal is provided to hermetically seal the passage of the wheel rim. One or more such seal is arranged between a connection region of the wheel disk and a connection region of the wheel rim, wherein the seal surrounds the connection element in a contact-free manner.

Disclosed are a method of manufacturing a vehicle member including pretreating the surface of an electrically conductive plastic molded product and forming a metal plating layer on the molded product, wherein the metal plating layer includes a copper plating layer, a nickel plating layer and a chromium plating layer, which are sequentially formed, and a vehicle member manufactured by the method.

A logo printed wheel apparatus for customizable advertising and self-expression includes a central hub having a plurality of mounting apertures extending therethrough. The mounting apertures are configured to mount to a vehicle a plurality of spokes coupled to the central hub. Each spoke radially extends from the central hub and has an outer surface. A plurality of logos is coupled to the outer surface of each of the plurality of spokes. An outer rim is coupled to the plurality of spokes. The outer rim is configured to receive a tire.

A wheel of a vehicle has a rim, a hub portion and at least two spokes connecting the hub portion to the rim. At least one spoke intermediate space between the spokes is at least partially covered by a single-piece cover element. A wing portion of the cover element is deformed axially away from the wheel when heat is supplied. The cover element is connected directly to the wheel, and the single-piece cover element is formed from a single material.

Described herein is an axle assembly and method of fabrication thereof. The axle assembly includes an axle having a first geometric shape housed within an axle housing having a second geometric shape. A shock absorber is located between the axle and the axle housing. The shock absorber supports the axle within the axle housing and comprises a first material and comprises a multi-sided configuration. The first geometric shape and the second geometric shape comprising polygons.

The step being performed in a state where a wheel body is fixed to be prevented from rotating around a rotation axis while a cutting edge of a cutting tool is in contact with the three-dimensional shape surface of the design surface in the wheel body, the cutting tool being three-dimensionally and continuously moved relatively along the three-dimensional shape surface while being changed in direction with respect to the three-dimensional shape surface to allow a rake face of the cutting tool to face a tool travel direction to perform three-dimensional continuous cutting processing that allows a specular glossy surface to be automatically formed in the three-dimensional shape surface, the specular glossy surface being finished into a processed surface having a high metallic gloss property by exposing the base metal.

The present disclosure provides an aluminum alloy coating, an aluminum alloy wheel hub and a spraying method of an aluminum alloy wheel hub. The aluminum alloy coating includes a base powder layer, a main body layer and a transparent powder layer from inside to outside. The main body layer includes at least two prime coat layers and at least two colored paint layers which are superposed in a preset order.

The disclosure provides a metal surface protective layer and a preparation method thereof. The metal surface protective layer comprises an organic medium layer, a metal coating layer and a transparent powder layer from inside to outside, wherein the organic medium layer is formed by spraying organic medium powder onto the surface of metal to be treated, the metal coating layer is formed by performing magnetron sputtering PVD plating on the organic medium layer, the organic medium layer is subjected to surface activation and cleaning treatment before the magnetron sputtering PVD plating, and the transparent powder layer is formed by spraying transparent powder onto the metal coating layer.
