A wheel hub for a utility vehicle includes a brake element abutment surface against which a brake element bears in an installed state, and a positive-locking arrangement which interacts in positively locking fashion, as viewed in a direction of rotation, with the brake element in the installed state, and/or a receiving region for a positive-locking arrangement which interacts in positively locking fashion, as viewed in a direction of rotation, with the brake element in the installed state.

A method for producing an automobile rim made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy for a wheel of an automobile, the automobile rim having a rim bed bounded on opposite sides by an outer flange and an inner flange, a hub with a center recess and a bolt circle, as well as a rim center connecting the rim bed and the hub to one another, the rim center being designed with a plurality of spokes spaced apart in the circumferential direction with respect to the longitudinal center axis of the automobile rim. The automobile rim is produced in one piece and continuously in a casting mold by die casting of a casting material, wherein the automobile rim has, at least in some areas, a low wall thickness not exceeding 15 mm.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide manufacturing methods for a wheel rim, a spoke and a steel wheel and a steel wheel formed by the methods. The methods includes that: a wheel rim/a spoke blank is heated in a heating furnace, and the heated wheel rim/the heated spoke blank is transferred onto a hot press. A temperature of the wheel rim/the spoke blank being required to be kept above a required temperature in a process of transferring the heated wheel rim/the heated spoke blank to the hot press. Then the wheel rim/the spoke blank is formed in the hot press. A formed wheel rim and a formed spoke are connected to product a steel wheel.

A rim for a bicycle wheel includes a radially inner portion disposed along an inner circumference of the rim, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall spaced apart form the first sidewall. The first sidewall and the second sidewall extend radially outward from the radially inner portion. The radially inner portion includes a stack of strips of material. The stack of strips includes a plurality of strips and a hole through the plurality of strips. The plurality of strips are nonparallel to each other. The plurality of strips are positioned about the hole through the plurality of strips.

A non-pneumatic tire (101) having a hub (201) and a compliant outer band (109) connected by connecting members (129) that are intersected by an intermediate band (120) positioned between the hub (201) and compliant outer band (109) forming a plurality of connecting element segments (331,333), each segment having a predominant curvature extending in the same longitudinal direction said direction coinciding with the preferred direction of rotation of the tire (101).

A turf wheel having a wheel rim having an inner and outer surface, and an annular tread portion; a plurality of projections extending radially outward from the outer surface of the wheel rim, wherein each projection provides a stem, a ground contacting pad, and a ground engaging lug; and a hub. A wheel cleaning system having a frame provided by a wheeled apparatus; at least one turf wheel mounted to the frame; a turf wheel scraper assembly, the turf wheel scraper assembly providing a turf wheel scraper and an attachment mechanism, where the attachment mechanism is adapted to be mounted to the frame, and couples the turf wheel scraper to the frame.

A motor vehicle wheel bearing assembly includes a hub configured to be supported by at least one rolling-element bearing and to provide a seat for a wheel. The hub includes a first hollow-cone-shaped element manufactured from light metal and having a first axial end section having a first diameter and a second axial end section having a second, larger, diameter and at least one bearing raceway or raceway support at the first axial end section. The hub also includes a second element extending radially from an end of the first hollow-cone-shaped element, the second element having a radially inner section and a radially outer section. The second axial end section of the first element is connected to the radial outer section of the second element, for example, at a joint.

A multiple directional wheel including a wheel frame comprising identical component parts. Each of the wheel frame components comprise: a hub having a main axis about which the multiple directional wheel is adapted to rotate; a hub rim radially surrounding the hub; a first plurality (four shown) of peripheral roller supporting arms (“first arms”) radially extending from the hub rim and aligned in a first plane; and a second plurality of peripheral roller supporting arms (“second arms”), each member arm of the second plurality of peripheral roller supporting arms having a radially inner base and being circumferentially offset with respect to diagonally adjacent members of the first plurality of peripheral roller supporting arms. Each of the wheel frame components further comprise a plurality of beams corresponding to the number of member arms of the second plurality of peripheral roller supporting arms, each respective beam extending from the hub rim to a corresponding inner base of a member arm of the second plurality of peripheral roller supporting arms, and a plurality of spigots extending from each corresponding one of the plurality of beams or the inner bases. The second plurality of peripheral roller supporting arms lie in a second plane normal to the main axis, spaced from, and parallel to, the first plane; and each of the spigots from one of the wheel frame components is received in a recess formed in a facing surface of a complementary one of the wheel frame components to join the wheel frame components to form the wheel frame.

A process for manufacturing a light-alloy hybrid wheel, implements the following separate operation phases: making a flange with an internal profile capable of constituting a tire bead seat; making a rim with, on one side, an outer profile capable of constituting a tire bead seat and, on the other side, a circular flank for assembly with a part of the flange; and assembling the flange with the rim, at the seat of said flange and the circular flank of the rim. The rim is made according to the following consecutive operations: an operation of manufacturing a circular flank; then an operation of expanding said circular flank to the size of the final rim in a single step; then an operation of cold or hot flospinning of said circular flank so as to obtain the rim in the final shape and profile thereof, comprising a shoulder only on the side that will not be welded to the flange.
