Abstract
A vehicle wheel includes: a well portion having an outer peripheral surface on which a vertical wall extending in a circumferential direction of the vehicle wheel is formed; and a Helmholtz resonator attached to a side surface of the vertical wall and to the outer peripheral surface of the well portion with an adhesive.
Claims5
A vehicle wheel comprising:
- a well portion having an outer peripheral surface on which a vertical wall extending in a radial direction of the vehicle wheel from the outer peripheral surface is formed, the vertical wall extending in a circumferential direction of the vehicle wheel;
- and
- a Helmholtz resonator attached to a side surface of the vertical wall and to the outer peripheral surface of the well portion with an adhesive,
- wherein a first film thickness of the adhesive is smaller than a second film thickness of adhesive, the first film thickness of the adhesive being between the side surface of the vertical wall and an adjacent surface of a side portion of the Helmholtz resonator to which the vertical wall is adhered by the adhesive, and the second film thickness of the adhesive being between the outer peripheral surface of the well portion and an adjacent surface of a bottom portion of the Helmholtz resonator to which the outer peripheral surface of the well portion is adhered by the adhesive.
