Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 A motor vehicle wheel is shown as a whole designated by the reference number 10 . Wheel 10 includes a rim 12 and a plurality of spokes 14 . A plurality of ventilation openings 16 are formed between the spokes 14 . A wheel trim 18 is arranged on the outside of the wheel. In order to ensure sufficient ventilation of the brake disc arranged on the rear of the wheel, the wheel trim 18 likewise has a plurality of ventilation openings 16 which are arranged in correspondence with the ventilation openings 16 formed between the wheel spokes 14 .

[0030] especially from figure 2 As can be seen, the wheel trim 18 is bonded to the wheel spoke 14 by means of an adhesive connection 20 . According to the prior art, the area remaining between the spokes 14 and the wheel trim 18 - hereinafter referred to as the connection area 22 - is not compromised with respect to environmental influences such as dirt, water, dust and with respect to the heat radiated by the brake. pr...

Abstract

The wheel (10) is provided with a rim (12), multiple spokes (14), multiple ventilation openings (16) formed between the spokes, and a wheel decorative cover (18) that is arranged at the outboard of the motor wheel and connected with the rim (12) and / or the spokes (14) and exposes the ventilation openings (16) between the spokes (14). The wheel for a motor vehicle is characterized in that: a protective cover (24) is arranged at the back side of the wheel as an independent component to expose the ventilation openings (16) between the spokes (14).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wheel for a motor vehicle of the type stated in the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Such a wheel for a motor vehicle is known from DE 19711732 A1. as from Figure 4 As can be seen from the illustrated embodiment of the wheel, the wheel rim has a wheel trim on the outer side of the wheel, wherein the wheel trim is connected to the wheel rim by means of adhesive bonding. It has proven to be particularly disadvantageous here that the adhesive for fastening the wheel trim to the rim is exposed and accessible when viewed from the rear of the wheel, so that it is exposed unprotected from dirt, dust , water and the heat radiated by the brakes, which may lead to premature failure of the bonded parts. [0003] In the embodiment of the wheel shown in FIG. 5 , the wheel trim is designed in such a way that the influence of dirt, water and heat on the adhesive points is excluded. However, this has the disadvantage t...
