METHOD FOR REGULATING WEIGHT BALANCE OF AUTOMOBILE WHEEL AND METHOD FOR REGULATING WEIGHT BALANCE OF WHEEL/TIRE ASSEMBLY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable correction of the weight balance of a wheel by a minimum balance weight when a plurality of kinds of air valves different in the weight of a wheel for an automobile are properly used.;SOLUTION: A balance weight 16 corresponding to a weight difference with an air valve 15 having a minimum weight is previously prepared in correspondence with each of the other air valves 15 on a basis of the air valve 15, having a minimum weight, of a plurality of kinds of the air valves 15 to regulate the weight balance of the air valve mounted on a rim well section 13a of a wheel 11 selected in an alternative way from a plurality of kinds of the air valves 15 different in weight. In case other air valves 15 are mounted on the wheel 11, the balance weight 16 corresponding to a weight difference is selected and mounted in a symmetrical position about the center of the wheel 11 opposite to the mounting position of the air valve 15.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
