WHEEL COVER RETENTION SYSTEM |
摘要 |
A wheel cover retention system includes a plurality of bent wire retainers that attach a wheel cover to a wheel rim (such as a truck or trailer wheel rim). The retainers are formed from bent metal, and have a first end that snaps into an air-passing opening in the wheel rim, and a second end that hooks onto a wheel cover to hold the wheel cover on the wheel rim in a position centered on the wheel rim. The retention system is particularly useful for semi-trailer aluminum or steel wheels that include air-passing openings for reduced weight, but the present system can be used in other wheel rim arrangements. |
