  • Patent number: 4088372
    Abstract: A wheel for industrial use is constructed of five parts welded together to form a unitary piece. Specifically, the wheel includes a rim defined by a central cylindrical part having flanges welded to its opposite ends and cooperating therewith to define a single deep well. A pair of disks cooperate together to form a drive disk structure of the wheel. These disks are located within the central cylindrical part of the wheel and have convoluted peripheries welded to the cylindrical part. The periphery of one of the disks is located such that it crisscrosses the weld seam between one of the flanges and one end of the cylindrical part and is also welded to the last mentioned flange.
