  • Patent number: 11911818
    Abstract: A method for producing an automobile rim from aluminum or an aluminum alloy for a wheel of a motor vehicle. The automobile rim has a rim well delimited on opposite sides by an outer flange and an inner flange, a hub having a center recess and a bolt hole circle, and a rim center connecting the rim well and the hub to one another. The automobile rim is produced integrally and continuously in a casting mold by die casting of a casting material. After the introduction of the casting material into the casting mold, a volume of the casting mold is reduced for post-compaction of the casting material. The invention furthermore relates to a device for producing an automobile rim.

  • Publication number: 20230074550
    Abstract: A method for producing an automobile rim made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy for a wheel of an automobile, the automobile rim having a rim well delimited on opposite sides by an outer flange and an inner flange, a hub with a center recess and a bolt hole circle as well as a rim center connecting the rim well and the hub with one another. The automobile rim is produced in one piece and continuously in a casting mold by die casting of a casting material. The automobile rim is formed during the die casting with at least one air conveying element for conveying air in the axial direction with respect to a longitudinal center axis of the automobile rim relative to an imaginary plane perpendicular to the longitudinal center axis and/or at least one surface enlargement element extending in the circumferential direction along a circular line.

  • Publication number: 20230042862
    Abstract: A method for producing a motor vehicle rim made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy for a motor vehicle wheel. The motor vehicle rim has a rim base delimited on opposite sides by an outer horn and an inner horn, a hub with a central recess and a hole circle and a rim center connecting the rim base and the hub to one another and acting eccentrically on the rim base in longitudinal section. The motor vehicle rim is produced in one piece and continuously in a casting mold by vacuum die casting of a casting material, wherein the motor vehicle rim has a small wall thickness of at most 15 mm at least in some regions and/or a curvature with a small radius of curvature of at most 4 mm.

  • Publication number: 20230042421
    Abstract: A method for producing a motor car rim made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy for a wheel of a motor vehicle. The motor car rim has a rim well delimited on opposite sides by an outer flange and an inner flange, a hub with a center recess and a pitch circle diameter, as well as a rim center connecting the rim well and the hub to one another and engaging the rim well off-center in the longitudinal section. The rim center is formed with several spokes spaced apart from one another in the circumferential direction as relates to a center longitudinal axis of the motor car rim.

  • Patent number: 11110902
    Abstract: A method for operating a motor vehicle, in which an active manipulation of the yaw angle of the motor vehicle is performed, in that, on a left wheel and on a right wheel of at least one axle of the motor vehicle, an uneven torque distribution is set. In order to give the driver better control of the torque distribution to the wheels of the motor vehicle, an actuation of an operator control unit of the motor vehicle is detected; the uneven torque distribution is set in a manner dependent on the detected actuation; the uneven torque distribution is maintained only as long as the actuation of the operator control unit is detected.
