Abstract:
A drive ring may be configured to receive a drive key from a wheel rim in a bushing on the ring. The bushing may include a slot with clearance to allow movement of the drive key within the slot during axial or rim flexure events. The axial or rim flexure events may occur for example, during taxiing of a vehicle and the loads of the vehicle can impart flexure forces on the connection between the wheel rim and the drive system. In one exemplary embodiment, the bushing may be movable on the drive ring to accommodate movement of the drive key during flexure.
