SELF-LOCKING NIPPLE FOR SPOKES OF SPOKED WHEELS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH A NIPPLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240010026 titled 'SELF-LOCKING NIPPLE FOR SPOKES OF SPOKED WHEELS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH A NIPPLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a nipple used in spoked wheels. The nipple includes a rod with a threaded hole, a head that is wider than the rod, and a deformable insert that is inserted into a seat aligned with the hole. The insert has a passage for a threaded spoke end, with a smaller diameter than the hole's thread, causing interference when the spoke is screwed in.

  • The patent application is for a nipple used in spoked wheels.
  • The nipple includes a rod with a threaded hole, a widened head, and a deformable insert.
  • The insert is inserted into a seat aligned with the hole and has a passage for a threaded spoke end.
  • The internal diameter of the insert's passage is smaller than the root diameter of the hole's thread, causing interference with the spoke thread when screwed in.

Potential Applications:

  • Bicycle wheels
  • Motorcycle wheels
  • Wheelchairs
  • Industrial machinery with spoked wheels

Problems Solved:

  • Prevents spoke loosening or detachment
  • Provides a secure connection between the spoke and the nipple
  • Reduces the risk of wheel failure or damage

Benefits:

  • Improved safety and reliability of spoked wheels
  • Easy installation and removal of spokes
  • Enhanced durability and longevity of wheels
  • Reduced maintenance and repair costs


Original Abstract Submitted

a nipple for spokes of spoked wheels includes a rod with an axial development, a threaded hole which is formed axially in the rod, the thread of the hole defining a root diameter and a crest diameter, a head which is widened with respect to the rod and a deformable insert which is inserted in a seat which is axially aligned with the hole and which is constructed in an axially intermediate position thereof. the insert, at least when it is inserted in the seat, has a passage for a threaded spoke end, the internal diameter of which is less than the root diameter of the thread of the hole so as to interfere with the thread of the spoke when it is screwed into the threaded hole.
