Estimating the term…
The invention relates to a wheel hub having a central section and having a radial section which radially adjoins said central section, having a bearing section which projects axially from the central section for holding a wheel bearing and having an axially opposite holding section for holding a brake disk and a wheel rim, wherein holes for holding wheel bolts are formed in the radial section. In order to obtain a particularly light wheel hub which can withstand all operating loads and offers a reliable contact face for a brake disk under all operating conditions, it is provided that the wheel hub has recesses at least between some holes, which recesses extend completely through the wall of the radial section of the wheel hub, and that stiffening ribs are formed between the respective recesses which stiffening ribs axially thicken the radial section between the recesses.
A wheel hub comprising a central section and a radially adjoining radial section, having a bearing section which protrudes axially from the central section and has the purpose of holding a wheel bearing and having a holding section which lies axially opposite and has the purpose of holding a brake disk and a wheel rim, wherein holes for holding wheel bolts are formed in the radial section, wherein the wheel hub has, at least between some of the holes, cutouts which completely penetrate the wall of the radial section of the wheel hub, and in that reinforcing ribs, which axially thicken the radial section between the cutouts, are formed between the respective cutouts.
