Vehicle rim plasma display assembly, apparatus and insert

A plasma gas discharge disk apparatus for mounting to a vehicle's wheel assembly having a vehicle rim, the apparatus comprising:

• a plate assembly defined by an outer plate and an inner plate which are fused together along their respective peripheral rims to thereby define a cavity therein;
• a predefined noble gas, the noble gas being within the cavity to define a gas discharge area;
• at least one power source;
• at least one electrode in electrical communication with the power source and a surface of the plate assembly, the power source adapted to generate a signal to an ionizable gas within the cavity;
• a ballast system coupled to the inner plate and adapted to substantially prevent an insert from rotation relative to any rotation of the vehicle's rim;
• and
• a ball bearing mounting system centrally located on the inner plate adapted to allow the vehicle rim to rotate while further substantially preventing the insert from rotation relative to any rotation of the vehicle's rim;
• wherein when the signal is applied to the cavity, the gas within the cavity is energized to visually appear on the plate assembly as visible, random electrical discharge patterns which look like tendrils of electricity.

A plasma disk display insert removeably insertable onto a vehicle's wheel assembly, the vehicle's wheel assembly having a vehicle's tire surrounding a vehicle's rim and a center hub mount support upon the vehicle's rim which is adapted to mechanically engage a vehicle's axle hub, so that when the vehicle's axle hub rotates, so does the vehicle's tire, vehicle's rim and the vehicle's hub mount support, the plasma disk display insert comprising:

• an outer plate and an inner plate which are fused together along their respective peripheral rims to thereby define a cavity therein;
• a predefined ionizable gas which is within the cavity so that the cavity is now defined as a gas discharge area;
• at least one power source, the power source adapted to generate a signal to the ionizable gas within the cavity;
• at least one electrode in electrical communication with the power source and a surface of the inner plate;
• a ballast system coupled to the inner plate;
• and
• a ball bearing mounting system located on a predefined portion of the inner plate;
• wherein when the signal is applied to the cavity, the gas within the cavity is ionized, resulting in visible, random electrical discharge patterns which look like lightning, and wherein the plasma disk display insert does not rotate relative to any rotation of the vehicle's wheel assembly when within the vehicle's rim.
