15,839. Parsons, R. B. July 16. Spring wheels; tyres, elastic other than pneumatic. -Wheels are made with two rims, the inner corrugated rim b being rigidly fixed to the spokes and of considerably less diameter than the outer rim, which is flat and flexible. Between the rims are a series of steel or other springs d guided by radial spindles c, which are rigidly attached to the outer rim, the rim being strengthened by collars e1 at the points of attachment. The spindles work through apertures in the inner rim and through collars e2. The series of springs are preferably pitched midway between adjacent spokes. Any suitable tyre may be fixed to the outer rim by screws f or otherwise.
