Title:
フル・フェース車両ホイール及びその製法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4499922
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
This invention relates to a full face vehicle wheel including a wheel rim joined to a wheel disc. The disc includes a body having a wheel mounting surface and an outer annular portion which defines an outboard tire bead seat retaining flange of the wheel. The outer annular portion includes an outer surface and an inner surface. The outer surface defines a radially extending outer surface in the region of the outboard tire bead seat retaining flange, and the inner surface defines a radially extending inner fit up surface. The outer annular portion further includes a non-radially extending inner surface spaced directly inwardly of the inner fit up surface. The rim defines an axis and includes an inboard tire bead seat retaining flange, an inboard tire bead seat, an axially extending well, and an outboard tire bead seat which terminates at an extruded inturned flange. The inturned flange includes a radially inwardly extending first outer surface, a non-radially extending second outer surface, an inner surface, and an endmost surface. The radially inwardly extending first outer surface defines an outer control surface. When the outer control surface of the rim is positioned adjacent the inner fit up surface of the disc and the rim and disc joined together by the weld, the non-radially extending second outer surface of the inturned flange contacts at least a portion of the non-radially extending inner surface of said disc to reduce a radial distance of the radially extending outer surface of the disc in the region of the outboard tire bead seat retaining flange.
