Abstract
A wheel assembly includes a circular frame arranged about a hub of a hub assembly, and shock absorbers coupling the hub assembly to the circular frame for providing relative motion between the circular frame and the hub assembly. Each of the shock absorbers extends along a tangent line to a circle that is coaxial with respect to the circular frame and the hub for providing tangential shock absorption along each tangent line.
Claims13
A wheel assembly, comprising:
- a circular frame arranged about a hub of a hub assembly;
- and
- shock absorbers coupling the hub assembly to the circular frame for providing relative motion between the circular frame and the hub assembly, each of the shock absorbers extends along a tangent line to a circle that is coaxial with respect to the circular frame and the hub for providing tangential shock absorption along each said tangent line.
A wheel assembly, comprising:
- a circular frame arranged about a hub of a hub assembly;
- and
- shock absorbers between the circular frame and the hub assembly, the shock absorbers are disposed circumferentially about the hub, each of the shock absorbers has a first end pivotally connected to the hub assembly and a second end pivotally connected to the circular frame, each of the shock absorbers extends along an axis from the first end to the second end and that is tangential to a circle that is coaxial with respect to the circular frame and the hub for providing tangential shock absorption along each said axis.
A wheel assembly, comprising:
- a circular frame arranged about a hub of a hub assembly;
- and
- parallel sets of shock absorbers coupling the hub assembly to the circular frame for providing relative motion between the circular frame and the hub assembly.
A wheel assembly, comprising:
- a circular frame arranged about a hub of a hub assembly;
- and
- parallel sets of shock absorbers between the circular frame and the hub assembly, the shock absorbers of each one of the parallel sets of shock absorbers are disposed circumferentially about the hub, each of the shock absorbers has a first end pivotally connected to the hub assembly and a second end pivotally connected to the circular frame, each of the shock absorbers extends along an axis from the first end to the second end and that is tangential to a circle that is coaxial with respect to the circular frame and the hub for providing tangential shock absorption along each said axis.
