8 results about "Locking hubs" patented technology

Locking hubs, also known as free wheeling hubs are fitted to some (mainly older) four-wheel drive vehicles, allowing the front wheels to rotate freely when disconnected (unlocked) from the front axle. This is done to reduce the mechanical resistance of the front-portion of the drivetrain when four-wheel drive is not in use. The hub, along with the wheel, is designed to engage (lock) onto the axle, to be powered by the drivetrain in four-wheel drive; or the hub can disengage (unlock) from the axle when four-wheel drive is not needed, thus allowing the front wheels to rotate freely within the hub. The hub is a component where the wheel is directly mounted to, and is outside the axle.

AUTOMOBILE SUSPENSION SYSTEM WITH VARIABLE VEHICLE BODY RIDE

A motor vehicle wheel suspension system comprising, on each side of a vehicle chassis (2), a suspension arm (8) arranged substantially along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, comprising at one end a pivot (6) connected to the chassis having a transverse axis, at the other end (10) a suspension spring (12) connected to this chassis, and comprising between the two ends a wheel hub support (28) equipped with a brake (34), the suspension arm (8) comprising two parts (20, 22) connected to each other by a joint (24) having a transverse axis, and a locking mechanism (26) for this joint (24) in several angular positions, the wheel hub (28) being on the part of the arm (22) which, during braking of the wheel (30), applies a reaction torque to it which tends to lower the joint (24).

Quick-assembly type anti-skid self-locking hub bolt for automobile

The utility model relates to the technical field of bolts, in particular to a quick-assembly type anti-skid self-locking hub bolt for an automobile. The utility model relates to an automobile quick-assembly type anti-skidding self-locking hub bolt which comprises a bolt body. According to the utility model, the conical rubber anti-skid sleeve is sleeved on the outer ring of the screw rod of the bolt, then the conical metal sleeve is sleeved on the outer ring of the conical rubber anti-skid sleeve, and then the connecting column penetrates through the through hole of the connecting ring and the insertion hole of the bolt, so that the connecting column is stably fixed in the insertion hole of the bolt by matching with the magnetic attraction force of the magnetic block; in addition, after the conical rubber anti-skid sleeve, the first anti-skid knurl and the second anti-skid knurl lose efficacy due to abrasion, a worker can conveniently and rapidly move the pressing ring and the conical metal sleeve downwards to be separated from the bolt through the first pull groove; and then a worker can conveniently and quickly move the connecting ring together with the conical rubber anti-skid sleeve downwards to be separated from the bolt through the second pull groove, so that the effect of quickly replacing quick-wear parts is achieved.

Secure locking hub system with fastener retaining device

A locking hub system for locking a wheel hub of a vehicle to an axle is provided. The system has a locking ring that may be moved between locked and unlocked configurations. When in the locked configuration, the hub is in a rotationally fixed position relative to the axle on which the hub is mounted. With the hub locked to the axle, the wheel will not rotate and the vehicle thus cannot be moved. When in the unlocked configuration, the hub can rotate freely about the axle, thereby allowing movement of the vehicle. The hub is fastened to the axle using a threaded nut. The threaded nut is retained on the axle by a nut retainer having inwardly facing tangs that are positioned within a groove around the axle.
