181 | Low vibration omni-directional wheel | US10003426 | 2001-12-06 | US06547340B2 | 2003-04-15 | Donald Barnett Harris |
An omni-directional wheel for an omni-directional vehicle that exhibits constant ride height, low vibration, and reduced maximum ground contact pressure is disclosed. The invention consists of a wheel assembly rotatably connected to the omni-directional vehicle chassis. The wheel assembly includes a hub on which free spinning rollers are rotatably mounted at an angle to the wheel axis. Constant ride height and low vibration operation are accomplished by configuring the rollers with an exterior profile, thickness, material properties and surface grooving to achieve constant deflection of the roller contact surface at all wheel rotation angles. | ||||||

184 | Wheel of traveling structure | US10219946 | 2002-08-16 | US20030037410A1 | 2003-02-27 | Shinji Yamaguchi; Shinichi Asai |
Problems in a conventional wheel of a traveling structure are solved, which in a traveling toy, the lateral movement cannot be performed reducing a game fascinating aspect and it is difficult to differentiate the toy from other traveling toys, and when a field is furrowed with a cultivator, upon completion of the furrowing at the field end, the cultivator has to be revolved at the field end to form the next furrow, so that an additional field area is required or when the additional area is not available, a field portion is generated where the furrow cannot be formed. A wheel for a traveling structure comprises an auxiliary-wheel carrier that rotates when the traveling structure proceeds straight and revolves, and a plurality of auxiliary wheels attached to the auxiliary-wheel carrier rotatably in a direction perpendicular to the rotational direction of the auxiliary-wheel carrier, part of the auxiliary wheels being exposed from the external peripheral surface of the auxiliary-wheel carrier. | ||||||

186 | Roller skate wheel | US771127 | 1996-12-20 | US5720529A | 1998-02-24 | Bruce J. Barron |
A wheel for inline roller skates to allow oblique and lateral rolling movement includes an annular hub for mounting to axles associated with the roller skate with the hub having a circumferential groove formed thereabout with the groove being defined by curved wall members extending radially away from the central hub body and curving inwardly toward one another with a plurality of spherical roller elements fitted within the groove and extending circumferentially about the central hub body for free rolling movement within the groove with the roller elements being retained in place by the walls and being free to roll in any direction, thereby allowing a roller skater to experience oblique and lateral motion. | ||||||
187 | Robot transport platform with multi-directional wheels | US847627 | 1992-03-06 | US5323867A | 1994-06-28 | Ronald Griffin; Eric J. Allard |
A robot transport platform adapted for locomotion, having a base with three wheels on each side. Of the three wheels on each side, the wheels near the fore end and the aft end are omnidirectional wheels; the intermediate wheel in between the omnidirectional wheels is a conventional wheel. The omnidirectional wheels have staggered rows of spherical rollers rotatably mounted to the circumference of the wheel's hub. More precisely, the rollers are mounted to annular shafts that circumscribe the circumference of the hub, and are supported in an overlying position over the hub by radially extending spokes. Anti-rattle washers are provided in between adjacent rollers. Torque is provided by two electric motors independently operating the wheels on each side. Torque is transferred to the wheels via a gear box, a chain, and cogged drive belts. The robot transport platform is controlled by radio and accordingly has a radio receiver mounted to the base. Servo controllers are used to control the motors and gear box. Batteries are supplied to power the electrical hardware. In alternative embodiments, the shape of the rollers can be cylindrical, diamond shaped, or an ovoid. In another alternative embodiment, the transport platform can be powered by an internal combustion gasoline or diesel engine. | ||||||

190 | Omnidirectional wheel | US3789947D | 1972-04-17 | US3789947A | 1974-02-05 | BLUMRICH J |
The apparatus of the invention consists of a wheel having a hub with radially disposed spokes which are provided with a plurality of circumferential rim segments. These rim segments carry, between the spokes, rim elements which are rigid relative to their outer support surfaces, and defined in their outer contour to form a part of the circle forming the wheel diameter. The rim segments have provided for each of the rim elements an independent drive means selectively operable when the element is in ground contact to rotatably drive the rim element in a direction of movement perpendicularly lateral to the normal plane of rotation and movement of the wheel. This affords the wheel omnidirectional movement.
