2. Axle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle

   The overall assembly can carry more weight than a semi-floating or non-floating axle assembly because the hubs have two bearings riding on a fixed spindle. A full-floating axle can be identified by a protruding hub to which the axle shaft flange is bolted. The semi-floating axle setup is commonly used on half-ton and lighter 4×4 trucks in the ...

3. Wheel hub assembly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_hub_assembly

   The hub assembly is located between the brake drums or discs and the drive axle. A wheel is bolted on it. Depending on the construction, the end of the hub comes equipped with the splined teeth. They mate the teeth on the axle shaft. The axle hub spins along with the wheels bolted to it and provide power to the wheels in order to rotate.

4. Centerlock wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerlock_wheel

   These consist of a shaft at the hub, with an external screw thread, a straight external spline section and a tapered interface at the hub base. The wheel centers have internal splines and a matching taper to align and center them on the hub. The wheels are fastened to the hub by means of a winged, threaded nut, called a "knock-off" or "spinner."

5. Magnetic bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_bearing

   A magnetic bearing. A magnetic bearing is a type of bearing that supports a load using magnetic levitation. Magnetic bearings support moving parts without physical contact. For instance, they are able to levitate a rotating shaft and permit relative motion with very low friction and no mechanical wear. Magnetic bearings support the highest ...

6. Centreless wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centreless_wheel

   Centreless wheels are toroidal in shape and have one or multiple bearings along the rim. Propulsion can be achieved in different ways, such as with gear teeth along the inner surface of the rim. They can be made lighter than solid and spoked wheels, resulting in better handling, [1] and less rotational inertia.

7. Tapered roller bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapered_roller_bearing

   In many applications tapered roller bearings are used in back-to-back pairs so that axial forces can be supported equally in either direction. Pairs of tapered roller bearings are used in car and vehicle wheel bearings where they must cope simultaneously with large vertical (radial) and horizontal (axial) forces.
