  • Patent number: 11897281
    Abstract: A wheel includes a boss, a rim, and a web. The rim includes a tread and a flange. The web connects the boss and the rim. When the wheel is viewed in its longitudinal section, the web has a linear plate-thickness center line that is inclined such that the plate-thickness center line approaches the flange side as it extends outward in a radial direction. When the wheel is viewed in its longitudinal section, an outer end of the plate-thickness center line is positioned between the flange and a center of the tread in an axial direction of the wheel.

  • Publication number: 20230294453
    Abstract: A wheel includes a boss, a rim, and a web. The rim includes a tread and a flange. A center of the rim in the axial direction of the wheel is disposed closer to the flange in the axial direction than a center of the boss in the axial direction is. The web has a plate-thickness center line that has a linear shape when the wheel is viewed in its longitudinal section. When an angle that the plate-thickness center line forms with the axial direction is denoted by ?, a distance in the axial direction from a side face of the rim to an outer end of the plate-thickness center line is denoted by Pw, a length of the rim in the axial direction is denoted by Wr, and Pw/Wr is denoted by L, the wheel satisfies the expression L ? 0.0223?-1.363. Where, the angle ? is 90° or less.
