A rolling assembly includes a tire having two beads, a rim and a flexible extender intended to provide the connection between one of the beads and the rim, the rim having a rim flange, the extender including an axially inner end, an axially outer end and a body oriented mainly axially and disposed between the axially outer end and the axially inner end, the axially inner end being fixed in place on the rim, the extender having an extender seat intended to receive a tire bead, the extender seat being extended axially towards the outside by a shoulder that axially fixes the tire bead in place, the tire bead having an axial width WB at the interface of the bead with the extender seat, characterized in that the rim flange extends axially under the bead by a distance S such that the ratio S/WB is greater than 0.1.

An embodiment vehicle includes a wheel having a width that is changeable and a controller configured to generate a control signal for changing the width of the wheel. The wheel includes an inner wheel connected to an axle of the vehicle, an outer wheel connected to the inner wheel, and a driver. The driver is configured to move the outer wheel along a longitudinal direction of the axle of the vehicle to change the width of the wheel by generating power in response to the control signal.

A wheel includes a hub and a rim portion surrounding the hub. An outer surface of the rim portion defines a circumference of the wheel. The outer surface of the rim portion has a plurality of bead locks that are spaced from one another.

A variable compliance non-pneumatic wheel which comprises a stationary tubular body (32) attached to the vehicle chassis. A tubular member is freely rotatable relative to the stationary tubular body and has a series of peripheral mounting rods (12, 13) on sides of the wheel. A plurality of interconnected and freely rotating caterpillar-like tiles (5), which are in contact with the ground during wheel operation, are coupled to the outer periphery of the wheel. A plurality of connecting spring members, (3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11), each connecting a specific mounting rod on a side of the hub (1, 2) are configured to connect the tiles (5) to the hub. The tubular member is split in two parts (1, 2) which are each free to rotate relative to one another. Each part carries approximately half number of mounting rods and connecting springs on a respective side of the wheel.

A rear wheel (1) for a powered two-wheeler has a hub (3), a rim (4) which has a rim well (5) and two rim flanges (6) terminating the rim (4) on both sides, at least one connecting element (7) for connecting the hub (3) to the rim (4), an interface (8) for attaching the rear wheel (1) to the two-wheeler, and receptacles (9, 10) provided on both sides of the rear wheel (1) for receiving a brake disc (11) and/or a drive element (12) serving to rotate the rear wheel (1). The receptacles (9, 10) on both sides are identical to one another.

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).

Disclosed is a beverage dispensing cooler. The beverage dispensing cooler includes a first lid, a second lid, a body, an axle, a handle and multiple hoses. The body includes a chamber, a panel, a base valve, a wall drain, a primary hose, a flow control unit, a power unit and a dispenser gun. The chamber includes multiple cylinders, multiple pressure compartments and a basin configured to collect water from condensation and melted ice. The axle further includes multiple wheels, a rod and multiple bearings connected to the rod and to the multiple wheels. The handle is configured to facilitate engagement of the beverage dispensing cooler with a hand of a user.

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 multi-lobed wheel adapted to be mounted to an agricultural platform for traversal of an agricultural field generally traverse to adjacent rows of planted crops without crushing the individual plants. The multi-lobed wheel having a wheel hub including a central axis on which the multi-lobed wheel is configured to rotate and a plurality of spaced apart lobes defining an outer perimeter configured to make ground engaging contact with the agricultural field, the outer perimeter including structure presenting a plurality of gaps between the plurality of spaced apart lobes, the gaps shaped and sized to provide sufficient clearance for individual plants within a planted crop row so as to enable the multi-lobed wheel to pass over a planted crop row without crushing the individual plants therein.
