Publication number: 20240190171Abstract: A rim, having a rim body with rim flanks, a rim well and a rim base, in which the flanks abut in the radially most inwardly point, and with opposed rim flanges, each extending from one of the flanks up to a radially most outwardly point, so that the rim flanges form opposed side walls with the flanks. The widest spot of the rim body lies beneath the rim well and above a horizontal centerline. The width in the widest spot is at least one quarter larger than a clear rim width between the rim flanges. The side walls show a defined curvature shape with an inflection point which is disposed between the radially most outwardly point and the widest spot and lies external of the rim flange. In the inflection point, a concave curvature makes a transition to a convex curvature lying between the inflection point and the widest spot.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 28, 2023Publication date: June 13, 2024Inventors: Jean-Paul Victor BALLARD, Andreas HENIG, Simon HUGENTOBLER
