VEHICLE WHEEL Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC B60B3/02 

FIELD: transport engineering; vehicle wheels.

SUBSTANCE: proposed wheel has rim with front and rear flanges, central hub with wheel attachment members and disk part with spokes connecting rim with hub. Spokes are divided by through ports changing in its peripheral zone into cavities on rim from front side of wheel. Front flange from front side of wheel is limited by sections of two convex toroidal surfaces and convex conical surface tangential to toroidal surfaces. Said flange is limited by first of said toroidal surfaces in zone of maximum diametral sizes of wheel, and by second one, in zone of its mating with rim. In zone of mating of rim with disk part, the latter is limited from front side of wheel by section of concave toroidal surface tangential to second one of said toroidal surfaces.

EFFECT: improved manufacturability of wheel.
