Definitions

  • VAN-IA VAN-IA.
  • My invention relates to method of rolling vehicle wheel rims of the type commonly used upon motor vehicle of today, such as automobiles, motor trucks, busses, etc. But .it may have a appear.
  • Rims for this class of vehicles very commonly embody a'fiange at an angle to the body of the rimi. These flanges whenever they whenever they are deep, have been found difficult to hot roll in one operation, if not impossible, under conditions approaching extreme orlimiting conditions. This is by reason of the fact that it has not been feasible with known rolling apparatus to effect the necessary flow ofthe metal at a sharp angle or to the depth desiredwithout causing Weaknesses or undesirable irregularities in the product formed. "Yet if maximum strength is to l be entirely avoided.
  • This gutter is nothing more than a groove 13 which is to receive the locking ring for the detachable tire which the rim carries.
  • This locking ring confines in position the removable flange of the wheel, both elements being so well known they are not shown here.
  • both the base 15 of flange 12, and the base 16 of the flange 14 are formed substantially at a final an le with respect to the main body 10, as shownby the full lines and the dotted lines which grow out of them.
  • the remaining or upper portions 17 and 18, however, as shown in full lines, are formedat a less angle than the final angle. This is all done by hot rolling and at such angles that the desired flow of metal and depth of the formed parts can be" readily achieved by apparatus known at the present time. This insures the critical sections at the sharp angles and bends 15 and 16 formed to its final position or angle with re.- spect to the base as indicated by the dotted.
  • This forming consists in bending the section of the temporary angle or bend 19 or 20 intermediate the bottom and the top of the flange.
  • This forming is preferably constituted a cold forming operation, sincethe bend at these temporarily formed bends of the section is not at a critical bend, being removed some dlstance from the bottom extrem-' ity where the critical strains occur.
  • a slight reduction of section or even a slight crystallization at such point removed from the critiv While I have illustrated my invention as' applying to both the utter flange 12 and the side flange 14, it is 0% especial adaptation to the forming of side flanges such as 14.
  • the gutter flanges are not ordinarily of such angle or such depth as to give special difliculty in rolling.
  • the margins of the flanges are formed to the final relative angle as respects the body of the rim, while the margins of the flanges are formed at improper angles and both in eneral lateral extension of the cross section 0 the main body of the rim, and thereafter cold bending margins of the flanges to their proper angles without disturbing the roots thereof.
