The rim has at least one stop which may be of great height, provided with a notch which is so shaped and oriented that the tire bead can be mounted from the mounting well up to its seat by relative rotation of the tire and the rim. |

The device is composed of a series of two or more substantially circular protuberances that are eccentric with respect to the rim axis, and formed on the mounting rim in an axially inner position with respect to the bead seat, creating a confining space adjacent the bead seat and radially outwardly projecting with respect to it, so as to constitute a limit to the axial shifting of the tire bead heel towards the central well of the rim. |

Improved assembly for removably securing an inflatable tire about a vehicle wheel includes a latching ring disposed in a circumferential receiving groove in the bead seat of the wheel adjacent the inner face of the tire bead. The latching ring includes a portion protruding above the bead seat for retaining the tire in place and a portion shearable by a force applied to the outwardly facing surface of the tire bead in excess of the force encountered during rotation of the vehicle wheel, whereby the tire may be removed without damage upon shearing of the shearable portion. |

A wheel with a rim having a drop center well and a retainer member for a tubeless pneumatic tire. In use the bead of the inflated tire is prevented from moving inwardly off the bear seat and into the drop center well of the rim by the retainer member which is fixed to the rim axially inwardly of and adjacent a bead of the tire. If during mounting and inflation of the tire a bead thereof becomes caught on the retainer, a gas bleed passage through the retainer prevents the tire from being inflated while the bead is caught thereon, thereby preventing damage to the bead of the tire and minimizing the risk of personal injury. |

A tire and wheel rim assembly wherein the wheel rim includes adjacent to at least one bead seat a circumferentially extending groove and the tire bead has a radially and axially projecting extended toe portion which is axially and radially located within said groove. The toe is flexible in a direction substantially perpendicular to its length and substantially rigid in the direction of its length and provides an effective bead lock to retain the tire bead in position on the rim. |

TANGORRA GIORGIO; BERTELLI ITALO |
A pneumatic wheel for vehicles including a tire provided with a tread, two sidewalls and two beads and a rim with two seats, one for each bead. Each seat has the shape of a circumferential channel having an opening for the introduction of each bead in its seat. The width of the opening is smaller than the maximum width of the seat. Each bead has in cross-section a profile at least partially equal to that of the corresponding seat of the rim and is substantially indeformable. The cross-section of the bead is smaller than the cross-section of the seat. Each bead is locked in its seat by an element having a modulus of resistance to compression of the same order of magnitude as that of the compound forming the beads and which makes coincident the partially equal profiles. The tire is anchored to the rim by introducing the element into the seat on the rim after the introduction of the bead so as to press the surface of the bead against the surface of the corresponding seat.

HAYES EDWARD J; CRICK STEPHEN E |
A method and apparatus for manufacturing vehicle wheels wherein a structural adhesive material is applied to the rim bead seat section of the wheel rim while simultaneously rotating the wheel about its axis of rotation, the material being distributed over the bead seat section by means of a suitable tool disposed adjacent the wheel and adapted to engage the material upon rotation of the wheel, whereby the material forms a surface of constant radius from the rotational axis of the wheel and upon which an associated vehicle tire is adapted to be mounted.
