Abstract

PURPOSE:To soften impact by allowing a spoke to bend for the impact applied from the road surface by integrally forming a hub, rim, and the spoke through casting and bending the section of the spoke on the longitudinal section including axle in the direction of axle. CONSTITUTION:The wheel which is made through casting and used for motor- cycle, etc., namely a front wheel 1 is made of light alloy through casting integrally with a hub 6 supported onto an axle, rim 7 onto which a tire is mounted, and a spoke 8 for connecting the hub and the rim. In this case, the logitudinal section of the spoke 8 including the axle is formed so that the section ranging from the connection part with the hub 6 to the connection part with the rim 7 is largely bent towards the axle. Onto the outer periphery of the hub 6, a brake disc 4 is fixed by a bolt 9 onto the side where the bent part of the spoke 8 is formed into concaved form. The caliper 5 fixed onto a front fork 3 is set with its half part inserted into the concaved side of the bent part of the spoke 8, and the brake disc 4 is allowed to stride at the position close to the center C of the rim 7.

As shown in Fig. 2.3, the front wheel l has a hub 6 supported by the axle, a rim 7 on which the tire is mounted, and spokes 8 connecting the hub 6 and the rim 7 made of magnesium alloy.
It is integrally cast and formed from a light alloy such as aluminum alloy. In a longitudinal section including the axle, the spokes 8 have a cross-sectional shape extending from a connection part with the hub 6 to a connection part with the rim 7, which is largely bent toward the axle direction. A brake disc 4 is fixed to the outer circumference of the hub 6 by bolts 9 on the side where the bent portions of the spokes 8 are concave. The caliper 5 fixed to the front fork 3 has approximately half of its body inserted into the concave side of the bent portion of the spoke 8, and straddles the brake disc 4 at a position as close as possible to the center C of the rim 7. .

When the front wheel 1 described above receives an impact from the road surface, the spokes 8 move while moving the rim 7 in the axle direction as shown in FIG.
Since the spokes are bent like 8", it is possible to absorb the impact from the road surface.As a configuration that does not generate such bending of the spokes, a cast wheel shown as a comparative example in Fig. 8 is used. As shown in FIG. 81, the spokes 88 connecting the hub 8G and the rim 87 can be bent in side view.However, in the case of this FIG. are connected and fixed to each other by the rim 87 and have a generally rhombic shape as a whole, so the rim 87 acts to prevent the spokes 88 from deflecting.Therefore, the spokes 8 of the front wheel 1 are free from any deflection. /:L-4' can not be done, and the buffer 1!

Also, 1. On the above-mentioned J and S layer sides, the caliper 5 and brake disc 4 are closer to the -jH rim center C side compared to the subordinate J-'Tsukiyo wheel. -U, one verticality can be directed -1- to that one. Manoko Caliper 5 arrangement: 1 U: wo ;); 1 Fume 3
Since it is easy to locate the shortest position as close to the center of rotation (steering axis) as possible, the inertia around the four axes can be reduced, and from this point of view as well, the verticality of the JRFit can be improved. I can do it.

Furthermore, since the braking device is in a protected state inserted inside the rim 7, damage caused by flying stones and dirt caused by mud can be reduced. In addition, since the spokes 8 have a flexible shape, they are easily deflected by impact, and can also provide impact cushioning properties.

4 to 6 show other embodiments, respectively. In these embodiments, the brake disc 4 and caliper 5 are moved closer to the rim center C side than in the first embodiment. \ In the embodiment shown in Fig. 4, the connecting portions 8a of the spokes 8 to the hub 6 are vertically extended in the radial direction at the rim center C, and then bent approximately at right angles to the axle direction to extend in the axle direction. The main body of the spoke 8 is bent in the axle direction from the lateral extension portion as described above. This connecting part 8a
Therefore, the brake disc 4 and caliper 5 are located approximately at the rim center C.
It is located in

In each of the embodiments shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the connecting portions 8a of the spokes B to the no-pro are biased toward the side ends of the no-pro, and the space at the rim center C is increased due to the biased configuration of the connecting portions 8a. This makes it possible to locate the braking device closer to the rim center C.
