摘要 |
<p>One embodiment of the present invention is directed to a wheel hub (12) stress reduction system for retaining a wheel on a vehicle using wheel nuts. The system includes a hub moon having a mounting portion (15) defining a plurality of holes, and a plurality of threaded connectors (20) each received by one of the holes. A maximum tensile stress region is produced in the hub (12) when said connector (20) is tensioned by a wheel nut threadably engaged therewith. The maximum tensile stress region lies beyond a hub radius which bisects said one of the holes. Another embodiment of the present invention is direct it to a method of reducing stress on a wheel hub (12) retaining a wheel on a vehicle using wheel nuts.</p> |
