A wheel assembly to be coupled to a hub of a vehicle may include an inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle and an outer rim surrounding the inner rim. The wheel assembly may include gas springs operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim and tread assemblies carried by the outer rim.

A wheel assembly to be coupled to a hub of a vehicle may include an inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle, and an outer rim surrounding the hub. The wheel assembly may also include gas springs operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim to provide a gas suspension for relative movement between the inner rim and the outer rim. The wheel assembly may also include a disk coupled to the inner rim and defining a closeable gap with adjacent interior portions of the outer rim to define a mechanical stop to limit relative movement of the inner rim and outer rim.

A wheel assembly may include an inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle, and an outer rim surrounding the inner rim. Gas springs may be operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim and permitting relative movement therebetween. The wheel assembly may also include a sensor configured to sense the relative movement between the inner and outer rims.

The wheel assembly may also include gas springs operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim to provide a gas suspension for relative movement between the inner rim and the outer rim. The wheel assembly may also include an outer ring coupled to the outer rim and an inner ring coupled to the inner rim and defining a closeable gap with adjacent portions of the outer ring to define a mechanical stop to limit relative movement of the inner rim and outer rim.

A wheel suspension system, comprising, a wheel rim, a plurality of adaptors equidistantly mounted on inner periphery of the wheel rim, a plurality of suspension curved elastic members having drafted ends configured to be circumferentially and linearly disposed into the adaptor along the wheel rim, and a multi-layered hub having a plurality of interlocked holders away from its centre towards the wheel rim for interlocking the elastic members at the centre. The wheel suspension system is cost effective for both users and manufacturers, user friendly, comfortable, easy to assemble or disassemble, comfortable and provides safety in cases of accidents.

A high temperature-resistant wheel, comprising: an elastic hub assembly (1), which has a thermal insulation layer integrated therewith so as to insulate the elastic hub assembly (1) from exterior high temperatures; and a rigid wheel barbed ring (2), which has the elastic hub assembly (1) fastened inside and rotates together with the elastic hub assembly (1). A robot, which comprises the high temperature-resistant wheel.

A split torsion axle is configured to provide the advantages of a torsion axle while also allowing for the independent adjustment of related wheel assemblies positioned on opposite ends thereof. The split torsion axle also provides for additional stability provided by having a continuous axle member spanning the width of the trailer or vehicle upon which the split torsion axle is deployed. To provide these capabilities, the split torsion axle comprises a first torsion axle beam and a second torsion axle beam, which are rotatably coupled to one another by a central joint. The central joint comprises a first spindle coupled to the first torsion axle beam, a second spindle coupled to the second axle beam, and a bearing assembly rotatably coupling the first and second spindles to one another. Both the first torsion axle beam and the second torsion axle beam are configured to be coupled to respective wheel assemblies.

A wheel bearing unit for a motor vehicle, comprising a wheel hub, a wheel bearing housing and a rolling bearing by which the wheel hub is mounted rotatably in relation to the wheel bearing housing. The rolling bearing has at least one row of rolling elements which are guided on the wheel hub side in a bearing inner ring which is designed as a separate component in relation to the wheel hub and which is fixedly connected to the wheel hub. The wheel hub has a through opening with an inner toothing, via which through opening the wheel hub can be connected in a non-rotational manner to a drive journal which is provided with an external toothing.

The present application relates to an insert, a protection device, a wheel and a vehicle. The insert is used for a wheel, the wheel comprises a rim, spokes, and a tire, and the insert comprises: a body provided on the rim and/or the spokes; and a protection portion provided on the body, the protection portion at least partially shielding an outer surface of the tire. The technical solution of the embodiments of the present application can form a certain protection effect on a tire of a wheel, improve the reliability and safety of the wheel, and further improve the aesthetic appearance of the wheel.
