BVV wheels with element shock absorber define the worldwide standard for resilient wheels on the normal route. They are safe, comfortable and gentle on vehicles, travel routes and adjacent buildings. Mileage and operating toughness are extremely high, the service is exemplary. Accordingly, customer satisfaction and worldwide acceptance are correspondingly high. The design principle, in which specially fitted rubber elements decouple the wheel tyre from the wheel rim and spring the construction, has been identical for all our normal-suspension wheels since Bo 54, the prototype of the globally successful resilient Bochum wheels. The three-part design with wheel rim ring is a further development especially for simplest mounting and servicing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/6″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” offset=”vc_col-lg-2 vc_col-md-3 vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][fancy_box box_style=”color_box_basic” icon_family=”none” box_color=”#3c6a81″ box_color_opacity=”1″ box_alignment=”left” min_height=”50″]\n

In these types of wheels, a wheel rim ring \u2013 frictionally connected to the rim by a tapered press-fit joint \u2013 ensures that the rubber elements are seated securely against rotation. The particular advantage of this design is the simplified assembly\/disassembly of the wheel tyres, for example directly on the vehicle to reduce maintenance costs.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the screws serve only as an additional securing element. The transmission of the service stresses is carried out by the conical press-fit joint.<\/p>\n
Wheels which are fundamentally the same type differ mainly in terms of load capacity and the different spring stiffness.<\/p>\n
