Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a center ornament that decorates the center of a disc wheel assembled to a full floating type axle.

Disc wheels that are assembled to full floating type axles generally have a large center hole (the hole through which the hub part of the axle passes through), and from this center hole to the hub hole (
Since the hub portion between the hub portion and the hole through which the hub bolt passes is small, it is difficult to easily and firmly attach the center ornament to the hub portion of this disc wheel.

The present invention was devised to address such difficult technical problems, and one embodiment thereof will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, a wheel disc wheel 10 is fitted into a hub portion 11a of a full floating type rear axle 11 at its center hole 10a, and has six hub holes 10b (only one is shown in the figure). It is fixed to the rear axle 11 by six hub bolts 12 (only one is shown in the figure) provided on the rear axle 11 (only one is shown in the figure) and a hub nut 13 screwed onto each of these hub bolts 12. Hub portion 10 of disc wheel 10
The ornament main body 21 of the center ornament 20 according to the present invention is attached to c.

The center ornament 20 covers the hub portion 11a of the rear axle 11 and covers the hub portion 11a of the disc wheel 10.
It consists of a cup-shaped ornament body 21 that decorates the ornament body 21, and a thin sheet holder 22 that is fitted and fixed in the opening of the ornament body 21.

The ornament main body 21 is a cylindrical resin first main body 2.
1A and a plate-shaped second body 21B made of Hewei resin, using clasps 21C at the connecting part C (three pieces are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction as shown in Fig. 2). are integrally connected.

The first main body 21A has a hub nut 1 on the outer periphery of the opening side end thereof.
3, and six recesses 21a2 and six steps 21a3 (only one is shown in the figure) on the inner periphery of the opening side end thereof.

The recesses 21a2 and the step portions 21a3 are provided alternately and at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, and the recesses 21a2 are provided in the recess 21.
It is provided corresponding to a□.

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3, and FIG.
It has legs 22b to 22b (equally spaced in the circumferential direction), and a base 22a between each leg 22b.
The first locking pawl 22c provided at the base 2 is locked to the stepped portion 21a3, and the base 2
It is fitted and fixed within the opening of the ornament main body 22 by locking the second locking claw 22d provided at the second locking claw 22d in the recess 21a2.

Each leg 22b has its tip protruding outward from the open end of the ornament main body 21, and is attached to a ring 30 removably provided on the outer periphery of the hub portion 11a of the rear axle 11 at the curved portion 22b provided in the intermediate portion. The projecting portion 22b2 is removably engaged with the center hole le of the disc wheel 10.
radially outwardly elastically engaged with a.

The ring 30 forms an engaging convex portion on the outer periphery of the hub portion 11a of the rear axle 11, and the ring 30 forms an engaging convex portion on the outer periphery of the hub portion 11a of the rear axle 11.
The ornament main body 21 is prevented from coming off by engagement with the first engagement portion.

In the center ornament 20 described above, the holder 22 is fitted and fixed in advance into the opening of the ornament main body 21, and the disc wheel 10 is attached to the rear axle 11.
When the ornament body 21 is assembled onto the hub portion 11a of the rear axle 11 by aligning each recess 21a□ with each hub nut 13, the protruding end 22b2 of each leg 22b of the holder 22 will align with the respective recess 21a□ of the disc wheel 10. It engages with the center hole 10a and is deformed inward from the imaginary line in FIG. It abuts on the outside, and as shown in the figure, the ornament main body 21 is easily and removably attached.

With the ornament body 21 attached in this manner, the protruding ends 22b2 of each leg 22b of the holder 22 are deformed inward and elastically engaged with the center hole 10a as described above. Curved portion 22N and ring 30
are elastically and firmly engaged in the radial direction of the ornament main body 21, so that the ornament main body 21 will not come off inadvertently.

Further, in this state, a part of each hub nut 13 is accommodated in each recess 21a1, and each hub nut 13 is removed by a tool (
Because you can see at a glance that it cannot be removed using a hubnut trench, the ornament body 21
Artificial damage caused by tools can be prevented, and the decorativeness of the center ornament 20 will not be impaired for a long time.

Further, in this embodiment, the hub portion 1 of the rear axle 11
Since a configuration is adopted in which the ring 30 is removably attached to the outer periphery of the disc wheel 1a, even if the center hole diameter of the disc wheel 10 is smaller than the outer diameter of the ring 30 than the one shown in the figure, the ring 30 can be removed by removing the ring 30. The disc wheel 10 can be easily attached and detached.

In the above embodiment, the ring 30 is removably attached to the outer periphery of the hub portion 11a of the rear axle 11, and an engaging convex portion is provided on the outer periphery of the hub portion 11a. An engaging protrusion having a smaller diameter than the center hole diameter of the disc wheel 10 may be integrally provided on the outer periphery of the disc wheel 11a.

Furthermore, the above-described center ornament 20 can be applied not only to a normal full-floating type front axle but also to a front axle equipped with a freewheel hub by removing the second body 21B of the ornament body 21.

In short, in the present invention, the center ornament is a cup-shaped ornament that is fitted onto the outside of the hub of a full-floating type axle and has its open end abutted against the outside of the hub of a disc wheel assembled to the axle. a main body, an annular base that is fitted and fixed within the ornament main body, and an annular base that extends from the base, protrudes from the open end of the ornament main body, is inserted into the center hole of the disc wheel, deforms radially inward, and has a radial shape. and a holder having a plurality of legs that elastically engage outwardly, and an intermediate portion of the legs removably engages with a retaining protrusion provided on the outside of the hub portion of the axle. Since the engaging portion is provided to prevent the ornament main body from coming off, the center ornament can be easily and firmly attached.
