VEHICLE WHEEL Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; motorcycles. SUBSTANCE: wheel for motorcycle has tyre 1 with bead parts placed between disks 5 and disk-to-disk connecting members clamped in between. Disks 5 are made with inclined surfaces 9 with clearance formed over periphery between inclined surfaces and tyre sides increasing in direction from equatorial plane of tyre. Owing to cantilever clamping of tyre bead parts over equatorial plane and provision of inclined surfaces, tyre is displaced at turning in cross direction over this surface with provision of contact pattern on road bed. EFFECT: increased stability of motorcycle and improved safety of rider. 1 dwg
