As shown in Figs. 3, 4 and 5, the wheel rim 813 of the wheel frame 81 is provided with an air intake hole 814, and a valve 83 is inserted into the air intake hole 814; the valve 83 is implemented as an L-shaped valve in the present invention; the valve 83 has a fixing portion 831 and an inflation portion 832, the fixing portion 831 is made of elastic rubber to form a cone, and the fixing portion 832 is provided with a gas injection nozzle 833; The portion 831 has a positioning annular embedding groove 833, so that when the valve 83 is inserted into the air intake hole 814, the embedding groove 833 can be embedded in the air intake hole 814 of the wheel 813. The inflation portion 832 is formed into an L-shaped body by bending upward and to one side along the fixing portion 831, so that the inflation action can be performed from the side of the wheel 8 when inflating.

As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8, the wheel rim 813 is provided with a first positioning block 84 and a second positioning block 85 disposed opposite to each other along the circumferential direction of the wheel rim 813 on the side of the air inlet hole 814 facing the wheel hub 811 (i.e., the inner side of the wheel rim 813). The first positioning block 84 and the second positioning block 85 are formed in an integral manner with the wheel rim 813. The first positioning block 84 has a first position adjacent to the wheel rim 813. The second positioning block 85 has an embedding portion 841 and a clamping portion 842 away from the wheel rim 813. The embedding portion 841 is composed of two concave portions with a rib in the middle, and the clamping portion 842 is composed of two protruding blocks on the sides. In other words, with the wheel hub 811 as the upper side, the clamping portion 842 is located above the embedding portion 841. The second positioning block 85 has an embedding portion 851 adjacent to the wheel rim 813 and a clamping portion 852 away from the wheel rim 813. The clamping portion 852 is composed of two concave sides with a rib in the middle, and the clamping portion 852 is composed of two protruding blocks on the sides; more specifically, with the wheel hub 811 as the upper side, the clamping portion 852 is located above the embedding portion 851; in the implementation of the invention, the width of the embedding portion 841 of the first positioning block 84 is set to be smaller than the width of the embedding portion 851 of the second positioning block 85 (Figure L1 is less than L); the width of the clamping portion 842 of the first positioning block 84 is set to be smaller than the width of the clamping portion 852 of the second positioning block 85 (A1 is less than A in the figure); the width of the embedding portion 841 and the clamping portion 842 of the first positioning block 84 is set to be smaller than the width of the embedding portion 851 and the clamping portion 852 of the second positioning block 85, thereby forming an anti-fool or anti-error assembly mechanism.

As shown in Figures 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8, a buckle 9 is sleeved on the first positioning block 84 and the second positioning block 85; the buckle 9 has a first half body 91 and a second half body 92, and the first half body 91 and the second half body 92 are buckled together by a buckling mechanism 93 to form a complete buckle 9. The buckling mechanism 93 of the invention is composed of a convex column and a perforation. For example, two convex columns are convexly arranged on the second half body 92, and two perforations are arranged on the first half body 91 corresponding to the two convex columns. The two convex columns are inserted into the two perforations to buckle, so that the first half body 91 and the second half body 92 are buckled into the buckle 9.

As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8, the first half body 91 corresponds to the first positioning block 84. A recessed groove 911 is formed below the first half body 91. The recessed groove 911 corresponds to the embedding portion 841 of the first positioning block 84. The width of the recessed groove 911 matches the embedding portion 841 of the first positioning block 84, so that the first half body 91 can be embedded in the embedding portion 841 of the first positioning block 84. The first half body 91 has a hook portion 912 formed above the recessed groove 911. , the hook portion 912 matches the clamping portion 842 of the first positioning block 84, whereby the hook portion 912 can be hooked on the clamping portion 842 of the first positioning block 84, thereby enabling the first half body 91 to be stably positioned on the first positioning block 84; the first half body 91 is provided with a mounting groove portion 913 above the hook portion 912, and the mounting groove portion 913 is curved, whereby the mounting groove portion 913 can accommodate the inflation portion 832 of the valve 83.

As shown in Figures 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8, the second half body 92 corresponds to the second positioning block 85. A recessed groove 921 is provided below the second half body 92. The recessed groove 921 corresponds to the embedding portion 851 of the second positioning block 85. The width of the recessed groove 921 matches the embedding portion 851 of the second positioning block 85, so that the recessed groove 921 can be embedded in the embedding portion 851 of the second positioning block 85. The second half body 92 has a hook portion 922 above the recessed groove 921. , the hook portion 922 matches the clamping portion 852 of the second positioning block 85, whereby the hook portion 922 can be hooked on the clamping portion 852 of the second positioning block 85, thereby enabling the second half body 92 to be stably positioned on the second positioning block 85; the second half body 92 is provided with a mounting groove portion 923 above the hook portion 922, and the mounting groove portion 923 is curved, whereby the mounting groove portion 923 can accommodate the inflation portion 832 of the valve 83.

As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8, since the first half body 91 corresponds to the first positioning block 84 and the second half body 92 corresponds to the second positioning block 85, the width of the slot 911 of the first half body 91 is smaller than the width of the slot 921 of the second half body 92; the width of the hook portion 912 of the first half body 91 is smaller than the hook portion 922 of the second half body 92; it is worth mentioning that the mounting groove portion 913 of the first half body 91 and the mounting groove portion 923 of the second half body 92 can constitute a directional accommodation mechanism, and the accommodation mechanism accommodates the valve 83. Inflatable part 832, specifically, the buckle 9 can cover part of the fixing part 831 and part of the inflatable part 832 of the valve 83, and through the foolproof or error-proofing mechanism of the first positioning block 84 and the second positioning block 85, the inflatable part 832 of the valve 83 can be forced to be arranged toward the outside of the wheel rim 813, that is, the outside of the left and right directions of the vehicle body, thereby facilitating the engineers to inflate the wheel 8; thereby preventing the inflatable part 832 of the valve 83 from being turned toward the inside of the wheel rim 813 and interfering with other parts of the motorcycle 2.

The invention has the following effects: a wheel 8 has a frame 81 and a tire 82 arranged around the outer periphery of the frame 81; the frame 81 has a hub 811, a plurality of spokes 812 extending from the hub 811, the spokes 812 connected to a rim 813, the rim 813 is provided with an air intake hole 814 for air filling, the air intake hole 814 is penetrated with a valve 83; the rim 813 extends along the circumference of the rim 813. A first positioning block 84 and a second positioning block 85 are respectively provided on both sides of the air intake hole 814. The first positioning block 84 and the second positioning block 85 are embedded with a fastener 9 for orienting the valve 83. This can limit the direction of the valve 83, thereby preventing the valve 83 from rotating and causing the inflation portion 832 of the valve 83 to interfere with other parts, and at the same time facilitate the inflation process of the wheel 8.

In summary, this creation can improve the deficiencies of knowledge and achieve the desired purpose through the above-mentioned structure. It has indeed improved the efficacy of the conventional ones and has the requirements of novelty, practicality and progress. Therefore, I have filed a new application in accordance with the law and pray for the detailed evaluation of the examiner and the approval of the patent. I am very grateful.
