ABSTRACT:
The present specification discloses a wheel comprising a central hub and an outer rim interconnected by a web. A pair of annular braking discs are mounted one on each side of the web, each annular braking disc being secured to the web by at least two attachment elements. Each annular braking disc comprises at least two curved segments, each curved segment having two end edge regions, each end edge region of each segment overlapping an end edge region of an adjacent segment so that a continuous annular braking disc with a smooth braking surface is provided. The overlapping end edge regions have sections which extend generally axially of the braking disc in opposite directions, the sections interengaging with each other, with a spring being located between the overlapping end regions to thus bias the overlapping end regions circumferentially with respect to the annular braking disc, to thus securely interengage the segments.
