Abstract
In order to prolong the durability of a disk wheel which is determined by a dynamic radial fatigue test, the disk wheel for an automobile comprising a rim and a disk which are drop portion-engaged with each other, has a construction such that it includes a plurality of humps provided on an outer peripheral surface of the disk facing the rim, the humps being formed at positions away from welded portions between the disk and the rim in such a manner as to extend with intervals in the circumferential direction, so that the outer peripheral surfaces of the hump are press-fitted against the rim.
Claims3
A disk wheel of plate material for an automobile comprising a rim and a disk which are drop portion-engaged with each other, wherein a plurality of humps are disposed to form an engaging surface on the outer periphery of said disk facing said rim, said disk and said rim being welded to each other to form a plurality of welded portions, said humps being disposed at positions substantially across from said welded portions between said disk and said rim in the axial direction of said disk and spaced along said engaging surface, wherein the outer peripheral surfaces of said humps are press-fitted against said rim.
A disk wheel of plate material for an automobile comprising a rim and a disk which are drop portion-engaged with each other, to form an engaging surface, and a plurality of humps which are disposed along said engaging surface on the outer periphery of said disk facing said rim, each of said humps having a substantially fiat top surface in contact with said rim, said disk and said rim being welded to each other to form a plurality of welded portions in the circumferential direction of said disk and said rim, wherein each of said welded portions is substantially aligned with each of the corresponding humps in the axial direction of said disk and said rim.
