VEHICLE WHEEL.
APPLICATION FILED MAY 9, 1916.

UNITED STA 2 c.
THOMAS E. MURRAY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
VEHICLE-WHEEL.
To all'wlwm it may concern Be it known that I, THOMAS E. MURRAY, a citizen of the United States, residing at' section on the line in, w of Fig.2. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 3 y of Fig. 1.' Fig. 3
' is a-section on the line a, z of Fig. 2. '20
'Similar letters parts.
A is the hub having the usual rear flange B, and threaded to receive the flanged sleeve Q'between which sleeve and flange B the of referenceindicate like wheel body is demountably secured'in place-- on said hub. Eachs oke comprises alongitudinally channeledshell D having its inner end of frusto-wedge shape, so that when said shells are assembled a circular nave is formed having a central opening to receive the hub.v
In the channel of shell D is seated a wooden bar E which fills said channel, and has its rear face preferably flat and registering with the longitudinal edges of said shell. In the outer end of shell D is welded a ferrule F, into which enters a tenon G on bar E. The bottom of ferrule F and the extremity of shell D are welded to rim H. The inner endof bar E is beveled to fit between the inclined longitudinal sides of the frusto-wedge shaped portion of shell D, as shown in Fig. 1. The angles at said sides are preferably filled with suitably shaped wooden blocks I which fit against bar E. The blocks I are first inserted in the angles of the shell, and the bar E is then driven into said shell between said blocks until the tenon G becomes seated in the fer rule F. The inner extremity of bar E is suitably curved to fit upon the cylindrical hu r.
In order to secure the wheel body against rotation on the hub, I provide a loose collar L between the wheel body and the rear hub flange B. On the front sideof said Specification of Letters Patent.
. I 4 i i Patented Dec.5,1916.
Application filed May 9, 1916. Serial Ho. 96,276.
collar are pointed studs M which enter. the
wooden bars E, and on the rear side of said collar are, preferably, struck up projections N which are received in suitable openings The steel shells D may be made of such strength as to take the greater part of the load on the wheel, in which case the wooden bars E may be regarded as fillers or linings,
preventing the accumulation of mud in theconcavities of said shells and the formation of pockets between said shells and the rear flange B: or, the bars E may be made of wood sufficiently hard and tough to support the greater part of the load, in.which case the shells D constitute an armor or cover- .ing therefor, located on the front convex sides of saidbars, and so protecting them from injury. It will, therefore, be understood that the shell D and the wooden bar -E therein may be relatively proportioned to divide the strain between them, as the user may elect.
The studs M may be pointed, as described,-
so that they may be driven andaso firmly engaged in the wooden members of the wheel body. I The approximated inclined sides of the fr'usto-wedge shaped portions of the shells D are preferably welded together.
I claim:
1. A wooden spoke for vehicle wheels,
and a metal armor plate on said spoke; the
said plate covering a portion of the surface of said spoke, and the remainder of said spoke surface being exposed.
2. A wooden spoke for having one face convex and the other face iat, and metal armor covering said convex ace.
3. A spoke for vehicle wheels, comprising a shell of metal, and a filling therein; the said shell having a longitudinal opening exposing said filling.
4. A spoke for vehiclewheels, comprising a shell ofmetal, and a filling of wood therein; the said shell having a longitudinal opening exposing said filling.
5. A spoke for vehicle wheels, comprising a shell of metal, a filling therein, the said shell having'a longitudinal opening exposing said filling, and means for preventing longitudinal displacement of said filling in said shell.
V 6. A spoke for vehicle wheels,comprising vehicle wheels,
a longitudinally channeled member of metal, and an inner member of Wood seated insaid metal member.
7. A spoke for vehicle wheels, comprlsing a longitudinally channeled outer member of metal, and an inner member of wood seated in said outer'member and having its rear face registering with the longitudinal edges of said outer member.
8. A spoke for-vehicle wheel's, comprising a longitudinally channeled outer member of metal and of frusto-wedge shaped format one end, a straight inner member of wood seated in the channel of said outer member,
- a longitudinally channeled outer member of metal tapered at one end and contracted at its opposite end, and an inner member of wood seated in the channel of said outer 1 member having its extremities fitting in said tapered and contracted ends thereof and its rear, face exposed.
' 10. A spoke for vehicle wheels,comprising a longitudinally' channeled shell of metal, a wooden bar seated in said shell and having its rear face exposed, and means for preventing longitudinal displacement of 7 said bar.
11. A vehicle wheel, comprising a hub, a
" flan e o-n-said hub having openings, a wheel body, means for securing said wheel body on said hub, a loose plate on said hub interposed between said hub flange and said wheel body, and studs on opposite sides of said plate; the studs on one side of said plate engaging said wheel body, 7 and the studs on the other side of. said plate entering said flange openings.
12. A vehicle wheel, comprising a hub, spokes, each comprising a longitudinally channeled shell of metal, a wooden member seated in said shell, means for securing said spokeson said hub, and means engaging with said wooden spoke members for preventing rotation of said spokes on said hub. 13.. A vehicle Wheel, comprising a hub, spokes, each comprising a longitudinally channeled shell ofmetal, a wooden member seated in said shelland having its rear face exposed, means 'for securing said spokes on said hub, a flange on said hub having openings, a loose plate on said hub interposed between the rear faces of said spokes and said hub flange, and studs on opposite sides of said plate; the studs on 'one side of said plate entering said'wooden spoke members,
and the studs on the other side of said plate entering said flange openings. p
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
