Abstract
A rim, wheel and fastening assembly. The rim has radially outwardly directed bead flanges and a radially inwardly projecting mounting flange with an axially extending portion attached to the rim between the bead flanges. The rim mounting flange has a radially inclined portion and a radially directed portion with inwardly facing surfaces. The wheel has a felloe portion with outwardly facing radially inclined and radially directed surfaces for mating engagement with the conforming rim flange surfaces. The fastening assembly includes a shank component projecting axially from a radially directed wheel felloe surface and through a radially directed rim flange portion and a rotatable component with a radially oriented surface for fastening a rim flange on a wheel felloe. The fastening assembly also includes a clamp element with radially inclined and radially directed surfaces for mating engagement with conforming rim flange surfaces. Also, for a dual tire mounting the wheel felloe portion has an axially oriented surface for sliding engagement with a clamp element.
