Abstract: A wheel assembly may comprise an inboard wheel half and an outboard wheel half. The inboard wheel half may include a flange. The flange may define a first alignment pin opening. The outboard wheel half may define a second alignment pin opening. An alignment pin may be located in the first alignment pin opening and the second alignment pin opening.

Abstract: A heat shield assembly for a wheel and brake assembly (10) wherein the heat shield (40) is securable to the wheel and brake assembly (10) by one or more slots formed in a torque bar (24). The slots (44) secure the heat shield (40) against radial and circumferential movement. The heat shield (40) can be axially inserted and removed from the wheel and brake assembly (10) without removal of the torque bars (24).

Abstract: A sports training target system is disclosed. The system includes a target anchor having a support post that includes a slight angle in the forward direction. The system includes a target section having at least one target arm which is rotatably secured to the anchor support post. When a ball is thrown by a pitcher and it strikes the target arm, the target section will partially rotate around the anchor support post. The angle in the support post, together with gravity, will force the taret section back to its original position facing the user.

Abstract: A pneumatic wheel and tire assembly equipped with a brake heat sink is protected from overpressure due to increased internal inflation gas temperature, caused by increased temperature of the brake heat sink, by installing a thermally activated fuse plug having a fuse in the wheel structure such that the fuse extends beyond the wheel structure towards the brake heat sink.
