Lightened disk for a wheel and a method for manufacturing the same

摘要

A lightened disk for a wheel has a flange having an axially inboard edge. The inboard edge includes a general portion which is located in a plane perpendicular to an axis of the disk. The flange portion has a thickness less than 90% of a thickness of a disk material at at least the general portion of the inboard edge. A method for manufacturing a lightened disk for a wheel includes a drawing step during which the flange portion is drawn such than the flange portion has a thickness less than 90% of a thickness of a disk material at at least the general portion of the inboard edge.
