Abstract

A collapsible wheel in which the components of the wheel cannot readily become separated and misplaced includes a hub adapted for rotation about a hub axis. A plurality of wheel portions each have a rim portion and a spoke and an inner end of the spoke being releasable from the hub. Rim fastening means detachably fix the rim portions together to form the rim of the wheel. Hub-connecting means are provided on the inner end of each releasable spoke for retaining the spoke on the hub when the rim portions are disconnected from one another and the wheel portions are rotated to collapse the wheel.

Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention is a foldable wheel. In the case where no tool is used, the volume can be reduced much to facilitate collection or handling. [Before technology] In the past, the general Linqi, Luncheng Langshunzi Lai, because of its large size, will occupy a lot of space in handling and collection. In order to solve this problem, there will be a stacking bicycle, folding type. The invention of a wheelchair. However, these inventions only end in the folding frame, and the volume that can be reduced is rather limited in the case where the size cannot be reduced. Some folding bicycles use smaller wheels to reduce the size of the collection. The smaller the wheels are, the smaller the wheels are. To maintain the speed of the general wheels, higher speeds are required. This sk also increases the rolling resistance and also makes riding. It takes more time to take the time, and it doesn't matter. However, the removal of the parts is lost. 】 The simple text is expensive, and it is easy to cause. Therefore, using traditionally sized wheels, the wheel volume is reduced to facilitate (4) the use of tools to disassemble the situation and the handling of the handling is the best way. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The folding wheel of the present invention comprises 1275500 hubs that are rotatable about an axis. Right-handedly a foldable combination consisting of a wheel and a wheel frame, except that one set is integral with the hub, the other can be moved around the wheel (four) or along the hub in the direction of the axis in the folded condition. The right-handed wheel frame segments that can be combined and assembled are combined into a wheel that can be used to form a complete wheel frame by snapping, and several spokes also utilize a plurality of concaves on the spoke bushings. The grooves and the wheels _ axially bend and bite each other into the same circular plane and the wheels that cannot move relative to each other are lighter 'thus forming a complete wheel, which can only be rotated around the axis. #In the folded condition, in addition to pulling back the snap spring to separate several wheel frame segments, the right dry wheel m bushings can also be opened at the hub in the direction of the wire to be in a position that does not bite each other. It is free to rotate on the wheel valley so that each spoke is turned to a folded position that overlaps each other. Because each 纟_ stack combination is also attached to the hub, there is no problem with = loss or misplacement. - Each folding combination is made up of a connecting bolt that connects the hard and the wheel frame segments, and each of the wheel frame segments can be connected by a bolt. The volume is only the wheel wheel. Accumulate - point. After the bell and the back of the hemp, in the folded condition, it is necessary to accommodate a number of rounds of the position of the bite position. (4) Nen Xie Nen w pepper, this ^ again. The wall structure can be green in length and has several sets of wheels_sets (four) in the bite position of each other 1275500. Therefore, the structure of the present invention is rotated, so the actual number of parts is only a small number of parts - a small number of parts, and the manufacturing cost is also low. [Embodiment] The shape is separated from Γ = ΓΓ 1 to indicate the part'. Fig. 1 A is a state in which the folding wheel is combined into a usable L (five) ® folding wheel for folding. From Fig. c we can see that this folding wheel contains a six-fold combination 4Q, in which the wheel of the spoke 4iv is fine, the other 4i, 4ii, Xian, 4v, 4vi are connected to the corresponding wheel She sets 5 sets on the wheel, so when the heads and tails of the wheel frame 3 do not engage each other, these folds, and σ 4 0 can rotate around the wheel ridge or move in the direction of the thin line 2. Each of the tamper-evident combinations 4 Q has an _-arc-shaped wheel frame segment 3, which if the pre-wheel frame segment 3 can be engaged with each other (Fig. 7) (Fig. 8) into a complete wheel frame (Fig. 8) Figure 1A). Each wheel is light, 4, 4, and 4, and includes the radiation direction of '6 axial rotation 7, the spoke bushing $ and the spoke tail 8. The light end 8 of the wheel has a round hole 14 (Fig. 3A) which can be attached to a joint inspection 9 (Fig. 8) so as to be coupled to the wheel frame section 3 through the elongated hole 6 (10) 7 Β) on the wheel frame section 3. Thus, this wheel frame section 3 can be rotated about the shackle 9 so that it can be folded against the spokes 4 in the folded condition (Fig. 1B). Referring to Figures 1A to 2c and Figure 2, the spoke bushing 5 and the axial portion _7 are engageable with each other in the case of being assembled into a wheel. When all the wheels of the Korean bushings 5 are on the wheel 1 one by one, so that the contact faces 12, 13 (Fig. 3 B) abut against each other, the two middle wheels are lightly 'with _ length but bent to the opposite direction The axial bends 7 are snapped into each other's wheel 1275500 and the spoke sleeve groove 1〇 makes it impossible to rotate relative to each other. In the same way, the m-group wheel_axis (four) turns to the groove of the card _ = so that all the wheel misalignment directions are lightly aligned in the same circle: and all the wheel light 4 is fixed on the hub 1 to become the body. (Figure 1A). Fig. 7 (4) The wheel frame section 3' has a limited length of one in the direction of the direction of the length of the Γ Γ 栓 9 (Fig. 8). In addition, there is also a curved elongated shape W 8 which can cover the end 2 3 of the engaging cage ^, so that the distance of the engaging magazine along the wheel arc _ 2 2 _ is limited by the elongated hole. . 'Test® 7 mb and Figure 8, when the wheel frame is to be combined, the two wheel frame segments will be pushed out of the end 17 and the spring end of the snap spring 19 will slide in. In addition, the guide groove 2 of the wheel frame section 3 is advanced along the guide groove and squeezed between the inner surface 22 of the wheel arch of the wheel frame section and the connecting bolt 9, so that the connecting bolt 9 is also pushed together with the wheel light 4 = The axis direction is topped to the top end of the elongated hole i (four), and conversely, the direction of the wheel frame segment ί is also ejected out so that the two wheel frame segments are firmly connected on the same side, ', and also the wheel ^ 4 Forming an elastic connection with the wheel frame section 3, making the wheel as flexible as the pneumatic tire when it is used. The wheel seal 1 is different in length from the folding wheel combination state and the folding state, so the hub of the present invention has a side structure 3Q (Fig. 1Q). In the combined state, it is not necessary to have a long wheel seal, so the hub can be shortened, and at the same time, a plurality of spoke bushings 5 are tightly abreasted. In the case of folding, it is necessary to wear a long wheel hub to wear all the wheeled light shaft sleeves. Therefore, it is necessary to stretch the wheel valley 1 when this is done. 1275500 [Simple description of the drawings] Fig. 1A shows a state in which the folding wheels are combined to be usable. Fig. 1B shows a state in which the folding wheel is folded into a collection. Fig. 1C is an expanded view of Fig. 1A.
