Balance weight for wheel of a two-wheel vehicle

摘要

A balance weight (1) for a wheel of a two-wheel vehicle includes a weight body (10) made from metal other than lead and a clip (20) made from spring steel. The weight body (10) includes a U-shaped transverse cross-section and a groove (13) for mounting the clip (20) therein. The weight body (10) further includes a groove bottom wall (11) and a pair of groove side walls (12) connected to opposite width ends of the groove bottom wall (11). The clip (20) includes a bottom portion (21) and a pair of arms (22) connected to opposite width ends of the bottom portion (21) of the clip (20). The clip (20) is mounted to the groove bottom wall (11) of the weight body (10) with the bottom portion (21) of the clip (22) contacting closely to the groove bottom wall (11) of the weight body (10). The clip (20) and the weight body (10) are coupled to each other by a mechanical coupling. The coupling may be replaced by a local welding.
