Abstract
369,795. Hand-wheels. HUSTED CO. H. A., c/o American Hard Rubber Co.; Akron, Ohio, U.S.A.-(Assignees of Kraft, H. T.; 267, Storer Avenue, Akron, Ohio, U.S.A.) May 20, 1931, No. 14945. Convention date, June 7, 1930. [Class 80 (iv).] The reinforcing-spider of a composition steering wheel for motor vehicles comprises a flanged central plate 2, Figs. 2 and 5, supporting a hub member 5 and rigidly holding the inner ends 10 of tapering spokes 4, which are of inverted V-section in order to avoid localization of bending at the edge of the plate 2. The outer ends 9 of the spokes are flattened and clinched round a rim core 3, which core and the spokes are roughened or serrated as shown at 15 to key the composition. The dished section of the spokes 4 merges into flat inner ends 10, which diverge to lie in contact with the hub-plate flanges, parts 6 of which are bent over to hold them firmly and draw them inwardly to grip the hub member 5. The part 5, Fig. 7, is formed from hexagon bar by providing a groove 12 to receive the end surfaces 14 of the spokes 4, rounding off the corners for engagement with a sleeve extension 8 of the plate 2, the end of which is bent into a groove 11, and providing a third groove 13 for keying the composition. The plate 2 is formed with radial ribs 16 to centre the spokes during assembly. A metal cup 18 forms the usual hub counterbore, and an upper space 19 is moulded to receive control members. In a modification, Figs. 8 to 10 (not shown), the hub plate and spokes are perforated to key the composition and the spoke-ends shaped to engage the surface of the rounded hexagonal hub member beneath a shoulder thereon, the shape of the hub plate flanges being also slightly modified.
