There is a space between the bearings and the machined ring. Im guessing it's very small but considering the weight of the car, I guess it will result in a lot of knocking
Yeah it has some play, but the main problem is the 3 bearing design it. Since theres alot of weight from the car it causes more pressure on the bottom 1 or 2 bearings closest to the ground which leave pressure off of the top bearing which results in a change of bearing pressure through rotation which means the top bearing is slapping when it comes under pressure thats where the knock comes from. In short the each bearing is taking turns being under load instead of the pressure being shared equally between all three

A 75 hp engine able to pull a locomotive! 😆 I wanna see that too, it's actually a great idea! 👍 Watching the gears move (within a clear cover) would be nice.
The three bearings must be having some clearance with ring so when wheel try to roll that spoke rotates over bottom bearing carring the load and coming bearing falls over and makes contact with ring and makes that sound. In actual case only two bearings are in contact with ring and when third tries to make contact it makes that sound. It is same as triangle tipping over again and again.
Yeah this is what is was thinking. Making this with zero clearance would be impossible without some part needing to be hammered or pressed into position.
Could you reduce knocking by making 4 spokes? This would also reduce the thin edge distance on the 4 wheel stud holes like shown at 4:02. Line each spoke up with a wheel stud.
The original videos when he was working out of a tiny little shed, he did the majority of the work. I believe he used to work at a factory/machine shop and probably started messing around as a hobby. Then people like us found it interesting and he was able to grow his ideas & upscale the experiments!
That knocking is the load shifting over the bearings, the load is causing a slight gap which causes the next bearing to slam into the rim as the load moves over
Maybe it's that they measured the distance when the caliper is not breaking and sitting in one place but when you apply the break the caliper moves because when you break half the movement is done with the piston but the other half is the whole caliper moves to pinch the router

It's awesome to see you get upgrades to the shop and tools since the early days of this channel. Congratulations on the CZcams success from America. 👍🇺🇸
I could have used that kind of a spare tire in my trunk last summer when my brakes seized, and been able to drive home instead of leaving my car on the side of the road and coming back days later with tools. Having that kind of a spinner wheel as a spare tire would save a person from both flat tires and seized brakes. Thanks for the idea.
So damn inspirational. These guys do whatever the hell the want with very minimal tools, id love to spend a month in a russian fab shop just to learn things id have taken decades to figure out myself.
Isn't it depressing that America and Russian governments can't get along. Watching the internet I see a lot of very creative people and things in Russia that are done affordably, maybe because of necessity, but none the less still done.
@@grantw.whitwam9948 The Russian government is pretty bad. And have bad moral values. So it's no wonder why US doesn't like it. But the people I'm sure are cool
The knock is probably coming from 2 things: 1-the tri-shaped center is not perfectly centered, so it can wobble a bit when it rotates. Many wheels are "center on hub" style, where the wheel is centered on the round hub center sticking out, not the lug nuts. 2- there is no preload on the bearings. So the outer race is fitted onto the bearing balls with a certain amount of tension. When you have 3 bearings running on the rim "race"(machined section wended to rim) there needs to be some pressure on the bearings to prevent the center section from being sloppy and slapping around when it rotates. If I may suggest: Replace the existing front hub and brake assembly with the wheel unit. This would eliminate the slop from the rotating center, and allow the rim to ride closer to centered over the steering bushings. All that said, I love the channel and I can't wait to see what you do next!!!!
I feel like that wheel has the potentional to ride smoother than any other conventional hub. This channel has some of the best most constructive comments on CZcams in my experience
Damn, you guys keep it uuuuuup. Such quality content, engineering. There should be a Russian film like 'Armageddon (1998)', where the Russian space engineers need to bring on Garage 54 to build some stuff, save the world. haha.
My Dad is a retired tool and die maker, and has a metal working machine shop at home. He taught me how to use the milling machine and lathe, and let me try fabricating things on them! Vlad is an awesome man who knows how to build amazing things proficiently!
for some reason this reminds me of the old front wheel drive christie fire trucks system. the tire was on a ring gear and the center of the wheel stayed still.
@@aterack833 not quite. drive system came in at the top of the wheel. more like a planetary gear system. these fire engines were in service around 1911.
@@CrusaderSports250 sort of. there was still a support in the center of the wheel. Jay Leno has a video on one, if you wan to see what Im talking about.
Wow Vlad, great job. It's great seeing you do all the fabrication Rather than ure guys. Anyone can draw a plan but takes a great mind to put it together. AWESOME WORK 👍👍
That Lada is rear wheel drive, putting two on the front and locking the brakes would just have the car drive normally but with no front brakes, not really that epic.
What a fun project. Enjoyed your video. I do have a few suggestions: 1) for the drive axle you could use one -way bearings. You will have no reverse though. And I am not sure if these kind of bearings can handle the torque. 2) you could attach an inverted brake disk into the wheel and flip the brake caliper. Keep up the good work 👏
So... As a conversation down there already discussed, the 2 main issues are the unperfect clearance between the bearings and the rolling surface, making the transition knock, as much as the wiggle between the bearing sides and the casing sides. A better option of doing this is probably doing a planetary gear setup instead? On the other hand it would surely need to be oiled of at least greased a lot.... But i assume it would lessen the wiggle up and down, or when making this planetary bearing setup, it would be good to make the covers/bearing connection CNC milled maybe on both sides so the connection plate won't bend and the outer casing made out of one solid piece with side tolerances in the hundreds part of milimeters in diameter and inner length. Also at least a Cellamit cap over the bearings themselves and if that won't make it gone, make the bearings being mounted onto adjustable length, weighting it out at the tire swing machine thingy.
The knocking is when you have a single bearing on the bottom taking all the weight and it passes the lowest point the triangle hub will tip forward slightly and weight shifts from leaning on the rear-top bearing to the front-top bearing.
That knocking noise: There's a slight gap between the outside race of those three bearings and the rim Every time it gets to the top there's a gap so it releases, and then when it goes toward the bottom front it connects and there's a thump. The tolerances are too large. There are three knocks per center piece rotation, so that proves it. It can't be the bearing's bolts knocking against the caliper because they double checked that. To fix it, you'll probably have to drill the bearing bolt holes further out by a hair or two. Maybe go up one bolt size or add material with a welder then drill further out.
Each video I watch I am amazed at how far these guys have come. I think if they perfect their balance and alignment issues they could sell MANY of their rim sets for real useage. Maybe consult someone for help with balancing some of the welds to keep from getting wobble. 100% entertaining and I love to watch. Keep them coming, you guys are awesome.
The knock comes from the bearings. They are not all in touch with the outer ring, so when the spokes spin, the bearings fall down on the track. The lower bearings are supporting the weight of the car and the upper one is basically floating. When the spokes turn, the upper bearing comes down, gets weight on it and falls on the outer ring. It might be just 0.2 mm but that's what makes the noise.
Take the ring gear from a flywheel and weld it to the inside of a wheel. Make a bracket welded onto the rear axle with a starter motor lined up to the ring gear on the wheel. Do this to all 4 wheels to have 4WD driven by starter motors.
I love the narrator and you guys of course. Also your videos are one-of-a-kind please keep up the crazy contraptions! It's cool to see how crazy Concepts come to life and working 3D space Much love Whoop-Whoop
The thumping is from the loose fit between the three bearings in their spoked carrier and the grooved track they ride in. When the carroer rotates and a bearing makes contact with the track to support the weight of the car, that little gap closes and it makes the thump sound.
I love ur experiments and vids!! Ring circumference is slightly larger than the bearing spoke combo.(tiny gap) Every rotation the next bearing in line "falls" into place and hits the inside of the guide ring due to the weight of the car. If you took that 3 sided spoke and tried to roll/rotate it on a flat surface there'd be a knock for every spoke/bearing making contact with the ground as it rotates.
That was a really awesome experiment! I enjoy watching your videos, thank you! Also you should try to see how far a starter will move a car, i had to do it when I ran out of gas one time and i went about a mile, it was slow but i got home lol
now imagine two of these wheels in the front, and two similar wheels in the back but instead of bearings, a planetary gearset where the bearing become planetary gears, the hub makes the sun gear, and the rim is the internal gear.
The knocking is from the lack of preload on the bearings. As each one travels down the bottom half of the race, any slack is taken up as the bearing comes under the weight of the car. You won't notice it on the bench since there's no load on the system. Same reason you can't diagnose a bad bearing until you put some load on it.
I think you'll find the knocking is due to their being a little play/space between the runner groove and the bearings; that knocking is from the car "falling" into the low every 1/3 turn. You MIGHT be able to reduce the knocking if you had more "spokes" and bearings, but I don't believe you'd be able to completely eliminate it without ruining the bearings
If you block the brakes from working on the driver's rear and keep them working on the bearing side, you will have an addition overdrive gear when you use the hand brake due to the differential.
Putting four of those babies on it, the vehicle wouldn't even move! Unless you pushed it. xD Totally love the craftsmanship and work! Can I say *SPINNER WHEEL?* Two on the front would've been awesome! THE THUMPING is caused by an imperfect weld!

Need to preload them outwards a bit. Also bearings are not strong enough to use the outer part as a roller like this. They're not substantial enough.
@@kalashnikov3796 exactly 💯
That was my 1st thought too. Don't need much clearance to cause that small gap to be knock. A 5 spoke would likely reduce it a lot.
