STEEL FELLY FOB WHEELS.
Application filed August l, 1922. Serial No. 579,019.
To all whom it may conce/m:
Be it known that I, lWILLIAM Enns'rns VVTLLTAMs, a citizen of the United States, a resident of llilinette, county of Cook, State olf Illinois, have invented a new and `iiseful Improvement in Steel Fellies for llvheels, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that type of steel fellies upon which are mounted deniountalale pneumatic tire riins, and the object of the invention is to improve the detail constructions ot this class olz steel tellies, as will be iiindersood troni the description herein.
YReference Will he had to the accompanying drawing` in Which-- Figure l a front elevation oi a portion of a Wheel showingl niy steel folly.
Figure 2 is a section on the line 2"2 ol' Figure l.
Figure Si is a section on the line fl-l of Figure l..
Figure 4lis a similar section on the line /l-lol liigure l.
Figure 5 is a section on the line 5--5 ot' 4Figiue l. y
.l indicates the spokes of a wheel fastened into the hill) in any suitahle manner, lout here shown as that class of spokes suitable 'lor use with a steel telly.
indicates the niain portion ot' niy steel felly `which is substantially Zloar cross sec-y tion having the rini hearing portion 3, and a primarily cylindrical ilange 4l in which there are embossed spoke-end pockets 5. The other side of niy ielly is a Wedge ring- G of Z-lile cross-section, formingwith the i'nain portion, channel section steel telly. rlhe Wedge ringl 6 has the portion 'l' bearing on the rini, and a flange 8 telescoped over the outer periphery orp the flange l olf the main portion ci? the telly.
In order to have a Wedging action 'for the wet ring` (i, portions 9 of the flange l are pr ed toward the rim, at intervals around the telly, and the flange 8 of the ring` (i is correspondingly leent at 10 so that When the ring 6 is drawn, loy loolts l1, toward the flange 2 of the niain elly member he desired Wedging action is secured.
By the arrangement of the inclined or ernloossed portions 9 and 10 of the main felly portion and the Wedge ring, the exposed inner face of the telly is a generally smooth cylinder broken loy relatively short shallow obtuse angled pockets shown at 13, Fig. 5, the corners oi these pockets being rounded as shown. No riin clampingl clips are needed or used with niy telly, lont other radical external novelty in appearance is avoided.
"What I claini is:--
l. A inetal lelly having` its inner Wall primarily cylindrical and provided on one side With an integral tire-Tini retaining flange and on the opposite side with a distinct one-piece tire rini retaining,` flange, and liolts tor drawing; the distinct flange toward its companion; said Wall being pressed outward at intervals to forni a series of inariginal inclines and said distinct flange being indented at corresponding intervals to forni inc-lines in position to Wedge ao'ainst the invlines first mentioned, under the torce exerted hy the bolts.
2. A nietal folly ha ing the middle portion olf its ifiriinarily cylindrical wall pressed outward at short intervals to forni internal spoke-ieceiving` pockets and external projections, said Wall having on ,one sido tireriin retaining flange entendi-ng farther from the center than the projections, and on the other side having an analogous, distinct, tirerini retaining` flange with an inhent inar- `ginal portion for which said projectionsserve as stops, and bolts passing through both flanges and serving;- to draw the inner margin of the distinct flange toward said projections and its outer margin toward a tire riin.
'Ihe combination with a nietal ielly having a priniarily cylindrical inner Wall with an integral rini retaining` flange on one side and on the other side overlapped by a closely iitting', iii-lient marginal portion of a distinct one-piece tire rim retaiming` flange of liar-like cross-section, ol2 a tire rini having` on one side of its cylindrical inner Wall an annular, embossed, inwardly projecting,l rile against which said distinct tire-rim retaining` flange rests laterally, and holts arranged to draw said distinct flange toward its companion. Y
n' Signed at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, this 13th day of July, 1922.
