Abstract: A non-inflatable vehicle tire comprising a rubber carcass molded to fit and be secured to a wheel rim with a series of equally spaced passages extending transversely through the carcass to provide resilient supporting ribs between the passages and having a road engaging tread molded to the carcass over a band of flexible steel cord reinforcing in which the band comprises a plurality of superimposed plies of coated hard steel cord and in which minor passages are provided through the ribs.

Abstract: A driven wheel assembly includes a fixed axle spindle, a rotating drive shaft extending inside the axle spindle, a bearing, a hub, a brake disc, and a wheel rim. An inner ring of the bearing is mounted on the spindle. The hub is mounted on an outer ring of the bearing. The drive shaft, the brake disc and the wheel rim are coupled in rotation with the hub. The brake disc includes a radial friction part and a tubular portion which is fastened to the hub. The brake disc is fastened to the hub by a radial fastener extending along radial directions with respect to a rotation axis of the assembly and mounted through the tubular portion of the brake disc.

Abstract: An external runflat apparatus for a guide wheel system of a monorail transport system. The external runflat apparatus includes a hub member and a tread member. The tread member is connected to the hub member and includes a base member and a covering over the base member.

Abstract: A device for handling and towing a submersible object includes a tilting structure with a support, to pivot about a first axis parallel to a horizontal plane, and equipped with a guide device, a pivot connection about a second axis in a plane substantially perpendicular to the first axis, to allow a rotary part of the tilting structure to rotate relative to the support, the rotary part having the guide device, a stabilizing device to keep the rotary part in a deployed position relative to the support provided a torque of the relative pivoting between the rotary part and support about the second axis does not exceed a predetermined threshold, to allow the rotary part, equipped with the guide device, to rotate relative to the support about the second axis once a torque of relative pivoting between the rotary part and support about the second exceeds the threshold.

Abstract: The present invention provides a deformable tire including a plurality of spokes. A first end of each of the spokes is connected to a core structure, and a second end of each of the spokes is connected to a tire body. A first length is provided between each of the tire bodies and the core structure connected by each of the spokes, and the spokes are elastic. The core structure is configured to fix and support the plurality of spokes, and each of the first lengths is dynamically adjusted by the elasticity of the spokes.

Abstract: A watercraft is provided with a watercraft body and a storage container. The watercraft body includes a hull and a deck. The deck is provided on the hull. The storage container is attached to the watercraft body. The storage container includes an access opening and an annular sidewall. The access opening opens upward relative to the deck. The annular sidewall has an upper end, a lower end and an interior storage space between the upper end and the lower end. The lower end of the annular sidewall defines a bottom opening with a cross sectional area that is larger than a cross sectional area of the upper end of the annular sidewall.

Abstract: A bicycle wheel securing structure is basically provided with an axle member, a head member, a lever member and an adjusting member. The axle member is at least partially hollow, and includes a first end portion, a second end portion and a vehicle body engagement portion. The vehicle body engagement portion is provided to the second end portion for engaging a bicycle frame. The head member is disposed on the first end portion. The lever member is configured to turn the head member around an axis between a first position and a second position. The lever member presses the head member from the first end portion to the second end portion by being turned from the second position to the first position. The adjusting member is provided inside the axle member for adjusting an axial position of the head member.
