  • Patent number: 12059926
    Abstract: An insert element for a vehicle wheel comprises several supporting bodies for supporting the insert element on supporting surfaces of the vehicle wheel. The supporting bodies have a supporting shoulder, which can be brought to bear against a supporting surface of the vehicle wheel, and a fastening extension with an axial hollow channel and with at least one outwardly protruding locking projection, arranged at an axial distance from the supporting shoulder, for engaging behind an installation opening reaching through the supporting surface of the vehicle wheel. The supporting bodies are designed as elastomer components which are elastically deformable in the radial and axial direction and sit with their hollow channel on a supporting core. The supporting cores bear a radially protruding retaining flange and are held on the rear side on the insert element. Each supporting body is held by the retaining flange in a form-fitting manner against being pulled off from the supporting core.

  • Publication number: 20100066731
    Abstract: A configurator that creates multi angle images of a product that can be configured with options, accessories, colors and the like in 2d imagery, which does not require special software or hardware to view and interact with the configurator. The configurator automatically generates layer logic of how the product can be assembled for use in a configurator engine to manage the relationships of the 2d art layers. The approach outlined here has moved the linking and logic to the generation phase of the layers thereby automatically generating the configuration logic file at rendering that can be used by a simple program to assemble the layers for a visual interface. Essentially, 2d images are created in a layering scheme from 3d models that can be assembled into any combination based on logic to support various configurations of products.
