2. Wheel hub assembly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_hub_assembly

   The axle hub spins along with the wheels bolted to it and provide power to the wheels in order to rotate. A roller bearing between the axle hub and axle shaft ensures easy rotation of the non-drive wheels. On the axle side, it is mounted to the holding bracket from the chassis; on the disc side, the wheel is mounted to the bolts of the WHA ...

3. Locking hubs - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locking_hubs

   The benefits of unlocking hubs for normal road use are mainly found in increased fuel efficiency. When the front hubs are locked, even if no power is sent to the front axle (by means of a transfer case), the turning of the wheels will still spin the front axle, differential, and driveshaft, which puts extra load on the engine. Unlocking the ...

4. Axle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle

   The semi-floating axle features only one bearing, while the full-floating assembly has bearings on both the inside and outside of the wheel hub. The other difference is axle removal. To remove the semi-floating axle, the wheel must be removed first; if such an axle breaks, the wheel is most likely to come off the vehicle.

5. List of bicycle parts - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bicycle_parts

   Headset: the bearings that form the interface between the frame and fork steerer tube; Hood: the rubber brake lever covering on bikes with drop style handle bars; Hub: the core of a wheel; contains bearings and, in a traditional wheel, has drilled flanges for attachment of spokes

6. Steering knuckle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_knuckle

   In a drive suspension, the knuckle has no spindle, but rather has a hub into which is affixed the bearings and shaft of the drive mechanism. The end of the drive mechanism would then have the necessary mounting studs for the wheel/tire and/or brake assembly. Therefore, the wheel assembly would rotate as the drive shaft (or half-shaft) dictates.

7. Wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel

   The hub is the center of the wheel, and typically houses a bearing, and is where the spokes meet. A hubless wheel (also known as a rim-rider or centerless wheel) is a type of wheel with no center hub. More specifically, the hub is actually almost as big as the wheel itself. The axle is hollow, following the wheel at very close tolerances.
