| 152 | WHEEL LOCK | US12245385 | 2008-10-03 | US20090090146A1 | 2009-04-09 | Duane Bosman |
| A wheel lock mounted for preventing removal of the wheel from the axle includes a cup shaped base portion with an opening to receive a wheel stud for threaded engagement with a lug nut to clamp the base portion to the wheel. A cup shaped cover portion nests within the base portion to enclose the stud and lug nut. A key actuated locking member extends simultaneously through the base and cover portions to prevent separation. The cover portion interlocks with the locking portion to prevent forced rotation of the cover portion relative the base portion. The contour of the base portion or the positioning of the locking member may be configured to prevent rotating the device about the stud. The cover portion may include a flange that bears against the rim of the base portion giving the wheel lock a contiguous exterior surface that is difficult to pry apart. | ||||||
| 153 | Axle hub cover | US11092051 | 2005-03-30 | US20060220443A1 | 2006-10-05 | Wayne Olson |
| A hub cover for securement to a drive axle hub after removal of a drive axle therefrom, the hub surrounding an axle opening from which the drive axle has been removed and for retaining oil therein. The axle cover is a plate having an exterior surface and an interior mounting surface, the plate being of a size sufficient to cover the hub and the axle opening. A mounting means is provided for mounting the plate on the hub. An oil access means is associated with the plate for selectively adding oil to the axle opening and retaining the oil therein. When the plate is mounted to the hub the interior mounting surface and hub form a sealing surface that surrounds the axle opening to prevent leakage of oil from the opening. | ||||||
| 154 | Locking lug cover | US09692942 | 2000-10-20 | US06419326B1 | 2002-07-16 | Douglas A. Rains |
| A Locking Lug Cover assembly is disclosed which utilizes an annulus secured by a locking mechanism to the specialy designed lug nuts or studs of a vehicle wheel for prohibiting access to the aforementioned lug nuts or studs of a vehicle, The annulus is constructed of a rigid, machineable material substantial in construction as to not allow deflection or breakage by applied force. The annulus is connected to the vehicle hub with mounting attachments that connect to the specially designed extended lug nuts or studs of a vehicle. A locking mechanism such as a cam lock extends through the cross section of the annulus to communicate with the lug nuts or bolts and hold the lug cover securely in place. | ||||||
| 155 | Hubcap protective device | US09217512 | 1998-12-21 | US06168243A | 2001-01-02 | Paul McWhinnie Abrahams |
| The present invention 10 discloses a wheel cover locking device which includes a flexible cable 18 having one end attached to the wheel cover 12 of a car 14 and the other end of the cable 18 attached to and around the wheel lug 24 of the wheel 30 of the car 14. The end of the cable which is attached to the wheel lug 24 includes an annular fitting 20 for being bolted onto the lug bolt 24 by the lug nut 22. The other end of the cable 18 passes through and is attached to the wheel cover 12 by means 16 which secure it to the hubcap. This prevents the wheel cover 12 from being removed from the car 14 without totally destroying the wheel cover 12 or, at the minimum, making a large and noticeable hole in the wheel cover 12 which would detract from its street value and thereby discourage theft of the wheel cover 12. | ||||||
| 156 | Mechanical locks for wheel covers | US62136 | 1998-04-17 | US6152538A | 2000-11-28 | David B. Ferriss; Rajakumar Israel; David H. Johnson |
| A mechanical locking system secures a wheel cover to a vehicular wheel. A rim lock includes a rim clasp which extends around at least a portion of the outer rim of the wheel. The rim clasp forces the wheel cover into abutting engagement with the outboard surface of the wheel. A hub lock includes a protrusion in the wheel cover which matingly engages a channel or recess in the wheel. The hub lock is located adjacent the hub portion of the wheel. The hub lock may include a spring to apply a force against the protrusion forcing the protrusion into the wheel. | ||||||
| 157 | Safety device for a truck wheel | US912756 | 1997-08-18 | US5941607A | 1999-08-24 | Peter J. Nordine |
| The invention relates to a safety device for truck wheels. An integral member is provided which is retained in an abutting relationship with the axle of the wheel assembly, but the integral member is free of any connection with the wheel studs of the wheel assembly. The abutting relationship may be provided by having a plurality of holes of the integral member which receive a plurality of the axle studs of the axle. Alternatively, the abutting relationship may be provided by providing a sleeve portion on the integral member and an interior threaded portion within that sleeve that is threaded to the axle of the wheel assembly. A lock screw may then be passed through the integral member to retain the member in the abutting relationship with the axle. An advantage of the present invention is that a strong connection is provided between the axle and the safety device, thus making it possible for the safety device to prevent wheels from flying away from a truck, tractor, or trailer when the wheel studs or rim suffer mechanical failure. | ||||||
| 158 | Wheel cover assembly having anti-theft retainer system | US638764 | 1996-04-29 | US5595422A | 1997-01-21 | Lawrence C. Ladouceur |
| A wheel cover assembly for covering the wheel of an automotive vehicle has a main body portion formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced wells having integral cap portions to receive and conceal the lug nuts of the wheel. Locking arms project axially from the wells and embrace the lug nuts to lock the cover member securely on the wheel. Expansion slots are provided between the locking arms of each well to facilitate the disengagement of the locking arms from the lug nuts. A special anti-theft release tool is insertable into the expansion slots forcing the locking arms radially outwardly of one another sufficiently to release the lug nuts and permit the wheel cover to be removed from the wheel. | ||||||
| 159 | Direct wheel trim attachment system | US736734 | 1991-07-26 | US5193884A | 1993-03-16 | Long C. Sheu; James P. Wright |
| The present invention relates to a wheel trim member that maintains a very low profile substantially against a front or rear wheel, depending upon its application. The trim member has at least one, and preferably at least two, discs for receipt of wheel studs. This disc has external threads which are received by a disc cover which holds trim member against wheel. Lug nut covers are then placed over the remaining unencapsulated lug nuts to achieve consistent aesthetic appearance. | ||||||
| 160 | Hub cap for vehicle wheels | US53902 | 1979-07-02 | US4291921A | 1981-09-29 | Hurst E. Wulf |
| A vehicle wheel hub cap having a stylized disk with a pair of spaced openings therein adjacent the outer periphery. An outstanding collar on the disk supports thereon an inflatable tube. A flared retainer rim on the outstanding collar holds the inflatable tube in its assigned position on the collar. An outwardly disposed valve stem on the inflatable tube is aligned with one of the spaced openings in the disk. A removable plug in the opening aligned with the valve stem is adapted to enter into a locking engagement with the disk. The inflatable tube when pressurized expands so as to holdably engage the rim of a conventional vehicle wheel. The hub cap is thus secured against accidental loss or theft, and can be removed only after the inflatable tube has been depressurized. | ||||||
