Abstract: A clamping hub includes a body and an aperture, defined by the body, configured to receive a shaft. The clamping hub also includes a clamp configured to secure the shaft in the aperture. the clamp includes a first deformable component that defines a first portion of the aperture and configured to, when deformed, change a size of the aperture and a second deformable component that defines a second portion of the aperture opposite from the first portion of the aperture and configured to, when deformed, change the size of the aperture.

Abstract: A mud flap assembly includes a flexible elongated spine to which protective scales are permanently or removable attached in a spaced apart array with an overlapping configuration. An attachment, such as an adhesive, magnets, or weatherstrip is fixed to the spine. The attachment secures the spine to a flange or edge of a fender of a vehicle.

Abstract: A removable mud flap includes a panel member having a curved top mounting edge, and a reinforced malleable engagement channel attached along the curved top mounting edge and adapted to frictionally engage a fender flange. The reinforced malleable engagement channel includes an interior U-shaped gripping surface defining a cavity, a plurality of opposed gripping lips protruding into the cavity, a plurality of gripping ribs protruding into said cavity, an exterior surface and an intermediate malleable U-shaped channel disposed between the interior U-shaped gripping surface and the exterior surface. The reinforced malleable engagement channel securely grips a fender flange without damaging the finish of the fender. The mud flap may be removed, without tools and without damaging the fender, by pulling it from the fender.
