Abstract: A system designed to introduce fresh air ventilation into the living space, eliminate contaminants, and add fresh air to augment a building's HVAC system. This is done in order to save energy, and the costs associated with heat loss or gain in a building. The system employs the use of geothermal energy conferred to air via a cavity which is constructed in the basement, on the slab, foundation, in the crawl space and/or attic of a building. This cavity is created to circulate, absorb and store/release the geo-solar characteristics of a building, taking advantage the consistent subterranean temperature of the earth and/or sun, in order to warm air from outside during the winter minimizing the foundation heat sink, and cool air during the summer. One or more heat exchangers are used to transfer the energy from contaminated air in the cavity to clean air destined for the HVAC system.

Abstract: An attachment system including an attachment sleeve or attachment arm is provided for attaching a wheel cover, or wheel trim to a vehicle. The attachment sleeve attaches to a nut present on the vehicle. The arm located within the axle housing of the wheel cover provides a compression fitting against parts of the rear hub of a vehicle. It is by compression engagement that the attachment sleeve or arm provides attachment of the wheel cover to the vehicle. Also disclosed is an attachment system kit and method of use thereof.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a jam nut, method and system used for attaching wheel liners to vehicle wheels. Each wheel liner attaches to a vehicle wheel when the wheel liner is aligned between the exposed lug bolts of the vehicle wheel and jam nuts that attach to the lug bolts. The wheel liner defines openings that are sized to receive the cylindrical extension members located on the ends of the jam nut without receiving the hexagonal portion of the jam nut.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a clip mechanism having a first clip and a second clip and a crossed orientation. This crossed clip mechanism has opposed ends which are biased to frictionally or biasedly grasp the lip of a hub or the hub itself. If the lip of the hub is not available, holes can be placed in the opposed ends to receive the bolts on the face of the hub. The opposed ends also extend outwardly to be releasibly received by the inside of the hub cover.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an expandable ring system for attaching a wheel liner to a wheel. The wheel liner has clips attached to it. Through these clips, there is sliceable placed a ring. The ring surrounds all but one of the lug nuts and lies within the offset along an outer circumference of the lug nuts. However, the ring loops into the inner circumference of proximal one of the lug nuts to lengthen or shorten the ring. The ring can then be crimped to tighten the ring against the lug nuts. A spring can also be provided to surround all of the lug nuts along the outer circumference. Prior to placing the wheel liner on the wheel, the ring can be set at the desired length so that it frictionally fits over the desired lug nuts.

Abstract: The present system discloses a universal wheel trim attachment system in which a wheel liner is attached to a wheel under the wheel lug nuts. Universal wheel trim attachment system has a center piece which can act as a hub cover. Surrounding the opening is a plateau on substantially an X-axis and perpendicular to a Y-axis. Around the plateau there is placed a first incline. Around the first incline there is placed a ledge which merely shows the change in direction between a first incline and a second incline which surrounds the first incline. A valley surrounds the second incline. A ridge surrounds the valley. A lip surrounds the ridge and rests upon the outer portions of the wheel. The wheel liners are also provided with lug holes, oval holes, and hand holes.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a wheel trim attachment system that uses a continuous attachment ring having mounting brackets which are pivotally and/or slidably attached to it thereby allowing it to be adjustable for different configurations of wheels. Additionally, the pivoting allows use for either a large diameter such as a spoked wheel or a small diameter such as a standard wheel. The attachment bracket receives an existing lug. Jam nuts are then placed over the bracket to hold the attachment bracket onto the existing lugs. Attachment screws are placed through holes in the liner and are received by mounting lips attached to the attachment ring to coordinate and correspond to the holes in the liner.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a device for attaching a wheel liner to a wheel having a hub. In both preferred embodiments, a spring clip is attached to a hub. The spring clip then has a biased finger which can engage a hub cover fictionally and hold it in place. However, this biased finger also allows the hub cover to be easily removed. In the first preferred embodiment, the spring clip is attached either at a screw on the hub, under a ring attached to the screws on the hub, or attached to the screws under a ring on the hub. The second embodiment attaches to a lip of the hub.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a wheel trim attachment system for trailer wheels. In the present invention, a bracket is provided having a cloverleaf hole which can receive lugs sized and spaced for a six lug, eight lug, and ten lug variety. Additionally, a mounting orifice is provided which can be placed on the wheel at a constant radius from the center of the wheel to allow a single wheel liner to be attached to different sized wheels. Attachments can be used to attach the wheel liner to the bracket. The wheel liner can have lug covers and hub covers.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a wheel trim attachment system that attaches to a yoke having a pair of collars, substantially half-moon shaped, separated by a tab. The collar is sized to fit within the offset of lug nut pairs. A bias member such as a rubber band can be used or any other kind of elastic member can be used to keep the yoke on the lug nut pairs. A mounting orifice is attached to or placed into the tab. Screws are then used to attach the wheel liner to the yoke.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a wheel trim attachment system which does not require the removal of the existing lug nuts. A trim member has holes to receive the existing studs and lug nuts. At least one of these holes is sized to frictionally fit over one of the existing lug nuts. This particular hole also has a flange, swept area, or reverse draw which is placed substantially perpendicular to the base of the trim member thereby providing a large area over which frictional fit between the trim member and the lug nut can be made.

Abstract: In the present invention, a nested wheel trim system is provided. The system provides two wheel trim attachments each having a trim member, a hub cover, and a jam nut. The two trim members are sized so as to nest into each other, and the hub covers are also sized to nest within one another so that the nested hub covers can be placed on top of the trim members if the trim members are for deep well wheels or under the trim members for regular well wheels.

Abstract: A wheel trim attachment system using stud extenders for attachment to either a front or rear wheel of a motor vehicle. The device is designed such that the same stud extender can be used for the front wheel as can be used for the rear wheel. The stud extenders allow attachment of the decorative trim member without removal of an existing lug. One embodiment of the trim member allows for attachment of a stud extender even where there are insufficient threads on a wheel stud above a wheel lug.
