Abstract

640,553. Vehicle wheels. S.A.G.A. SOC. APPLICAZIONI GOMMA ANTIVIBRANTI. Feb. 27, 1948, No. 6176. Convention date, Feb. 28 1947. [Class 144 (i)] In a wheel of the kind comprising rubber rings com. pressed between spaced flanges carried by the hub and rim and acting in shear, the rubber elements are formed with bolts, preferably radially arranged, open to the atmosphere for cooling-purposes. In the form shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the rubber rings 6, 7 have radial holes 18 and are bonded to metal rings 8, 9, 10, 11 which are recessed into a flange 5 projecting from the hub 2 and flanges 3, 4 bolted to the rim 1. To lessen heat transference from the rim, the rim-engaging portions of the flanges 3, 4 are formed with notches 27. Also for cooling purposes, the flanges 3, 4 are provided with apertures 12. An electrical connection 19 is fitted between the hub and the flange 4. In a modification, the internal flange is integral with the rim and is formed with radial corrugations to lessen its area of contact with the bonding-plates of the rubber cushions.
