Invention of Wheel

An aerodynamic wheel cover which includes a two sided circular cover, having an outer edge and an inner edge, and a central aperture. The wheel cover may be affixed by any number of adhesives deposited on one side of said aerodynamic wheel cover adjacent the wheel cover outer edge. The present invention also discloses a method of affixing the wheel cover of the present invention to wheels, the resulting wheels and vehicles. [Pg.27]

This invention relates generally to light weight covers used to increase the aerodynamic properties of wheels. More specifically, the present invention relates to covers for wheels capable of creating an aerodynamic effect by reducing the friction or drag across the surface of a wheel created by air flow. [Pg.28]

One of the most important inventions of the late Stone Age was the wheel. It reduced the force needed to move objects by a factor of at least 100. But the first wheels were made of wood. An enormous advance came when wheels could be rimmed with bronze. [Pg.2]

There is the Bascule, a largo press requiring a dozen. men to work it. The Prmoir A etiquet, moved by levers, or a horizontal wheel worked by four men and the Pressoir A eojTre, single and double. Oua in a vineyard in tho Saone and Loire acts by percussion. This press is novel, and is the ingenious invention of M. [Pg.1113]

The unified approached, which could be a proposal for a new version of IEC 61508 (with focus still on safety), requires analysis and evaluation as well as requirements definition and allocation with both, safety and security in mind. For details, how to handle the security issues, the security standards and the relevant chapters should be referenced (not to re-invent the wheel ). [Pg.172]

It was only in 1996 that the sleepy-headed academic literature provocatively asked Why water [13], This development sequence was quite unusual the idea from academia, initial experimental work in the 1970s by an industrial chemist (Kuntz, then at Rhone-Poulenc), first industrial use in the 1980s (i.e., 20 years ago) by another industrial company - Ruhrchemie - and only then (for about the last eight years) more detailed scientific study. The fact that some re-invention of the wheel is occurring in these intensified academic studies is due not least to the widespread unwillingness of the academic community to read and take note of patents, especially non-English ones. Joo and Katho [14] politely referred to this time delay between academic and industrial research as an induction period , although it was more like a serious case of mass transfer inhibition. [Pg.710]

The Puiof.—Tbe wheel-lock went into quite general use, finally leading to the invention of the pistol, about 1544. The fixet pistols were single barrel, and very short. The stock was heavy, and the breech or handle, instead of leaving the barrel... [Pg.325]

In human history, the wheel is considered one of the most important inventions, because it found use in a wide range of applications such as transportation vehicles, construction equipment, and internal parts of machinery. Like most inventions, the wheel was a development of earlier devices such as rollers, dating to the Bronze Age over 5000 years ago, used to move heavy objects. Wheeled vehicles were recorded in Sumeria in 3500 BCE, Assyria in 3000 BCE, and central Europe toward 1000 BCE. Four-wheeled wagons using a swiveling front axle for steering were recorded in 1500 BCE. [Pg.653]

The strategy or choice adopted in achieving this concept will be automatically shown by the inspiration or philosophy of "not to re-invent the wheel."... [Pg.49]
