BEADLOCK ASSEMBLY
A dual, internal, pneumatic, boltless beadlock assembly for effectively securing a tire to a rim is disclosed. The beadlock assembly exerts a force on the two circumferential inner beads of a tire such that the tire stays in secure contact with the rim, even when the inflation pressure of the tire is not sufficient to lock the tire to the rim.

Tire inflation device
An air deflector that is at least partially disposable within a tubeless tire of a bicycle wheel includes a body. The body includes at least one wall defining an air input end and an air output end of the body. The body is attachable to a valve of the tubeless tire at the air input end, such that when air is introduced into the body via the valve, at least some of the air is deflectable by one or more walls of the at least one wall out of the body at the air output end.

Tubeless bicycle wheel bead lock
A vehicle wheel including a wheel rim having first and second sidewalls defining a rim trough and an opening extending through a portion of the wheel rim, a tire having a tire bead positioned in the rim trough in engagement with the first sidewall, and a bead lock positioned in the rim trough adjacent the tire bead. The bead lock is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The bead lock includes an actuator positioned in the opening with a portion accessible from outside the rim, and a hand positioned in the rim trough with two free ends moveable relative to each other and a side edge engaged with the tire bead. The side edge includes a cut out that creates a recessed edge that is not engaged with the tire bead.

Agricultural wheel
A wheel for working the fields comprises a wheel body comprising a pair of flanges and a spacer, and a tire cover, generally annular, comprising two side walls, a tread connecting the side walls to one another and an opening opposite to the tread. The tire cover is mounted on the wheel body in such a way that the spacer is positioned across its opening. The flanges are arranged in such a way as to block the side walls of the tire cover against the spacer in the vicinity of the opening.
