Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A combined wheel includes spokes, steel bushings, a rim, a metal frame, a brake disc and pins. In use, the steel bushings are installed in grooves of the spokes; the spokes are placed so that the clamping grooves are matched with the connecting blocks; the pins are installed into holes of the spokes and the connecting blocks; the metal frame is matched with the backs of the spokes; the screws I connect the metal frame, the connecting blocks and the spokes together and are matched with the steel bushings; and the brake disc is connected to the metal frame by screws II. In the combined wheel, the radial force and the axial force generated in the running process of the wheel can be counteracted on the spokes; and the brake disc brakes from the inside, thereby increasing the brake radius and reducing the clamping force required when braking.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A combined wheel, comprising spokes, steel bushings, first screws, a rim, a metal frame, second screws, a brake disc and pins, wherein the steel bushings are installed in T-shaped grooves at the outermost parts of the spokes; a plurality of connecting blocks are uniformly distributed in a circumferential direction of the rim and are integrated with the rim, with an arc length formed by an empty slot between every two adjacent connecting blocks being greater than a length of the connecting block; clamping grooves in the spokes are matched with the connecting blocks respectively; the pins are matched with the spokes and the connecting blocks; a left end face of the metal frame is matched with backs of the spokes; the first screws connect the metal frame, the connecting blocks and the spokes together and are matched with the steel bushings; and the brake disc is matched with a right end face of the metal frame and is connected to the metal frame by the second screws.
