AUTOMOBILE WHEEL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/053113
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is an automobile wheel with which wheel durability can be achieved even when ribs (protrusions) are eliminated. (1) This automobile wheel has a hub attachment part (32) and a spoke part (33), with a wavy part (36), which reduces the section modulus of the cross section when the spoke part (33) is sectioned at the face orthogonal to the radial direction of the wheel, being provided on a portion of the spoke part (33) in the radial direction of the wheel. (2) The spoke part (33) is equipped with a spoke bottom wall (33a) that extends in the circumferential direction of the wheel, a pair of spoke side walls (33b) that rise in the axial direction of the wheel from either edge of the spoke bottom (33a) in the circumferential direction of the wheel, and a spoke reinforcing plate (33c) that extends in the circumferential direction of the wheel from the tips of the pair of spoke side walls (33b) in the direction in which said side walls rise, with the wavy part (36) being provided in the direction in which the amount of rise of the pair of spoke side walls (33b) is less by displacing the spoke bottom wall (33a) and/or the spoke reinforcing plate (33c) in the axial direction of the wheel.
