Sunburst axel cover

Abstract

This is a new invention. The wheel cover casting is bolted to the outside of the axle to give a very pleasant look to the axle and to the overall appearance of the truck.

Description

This is an aluminum casting that is machined by holding on the outer diameter first, and machining the back of the casting so that the chuck-jaw will hold onto the back inside of the casting. The front of the casting can be machined to size. Next, the casting is placed in a fixture and holes are drilled to tolerance.

After the machining, drilling, and deburring are done, the casting can then be placed on the studs of an axle of a semi-truck. The nuts can be secured with a wrench.

DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING VIEWS

Claims

1. I, Douglas s Huber, claim that I invented and made the design by myself. I am the first to invent this axle cover made from the pattern that I designed and made.
