What are the wheels that slide called?
1 Answers
The wheels that slide are called floating wheels. Here are the specific details about the wheels: 1. Principle: Floating wheels use a principle similar to that of a roly-poly toy. Floating wheels employ an additional bearing on the wheel hub, which can move around the central axis. When the wheel is in motion, this bearing keeps the wheel hub in a floating state. Additionally, floating wheels are appropriately weighted to maintain stability during driving. 2. Precautions: Pay attention to early warning signs of bearing wear, including any friction noise during rotation or abnormal deceleration of the wheel assembly when turning. For rear-wheel-drive vehicles, it is recommended to lubricate the front wheel hub bearings when the vehicle reaches 38,000 kilometers. When replacing the braking system, inspect the bearings and replace the oil seals. If you hear noise from the wheel bearing area, the first step is to identify the source of the noise.
