Abstract:
1. Connection device for connecting a rim to a wheel hub having a support body which is co-axial to a rotation axis, the connection device comprising a peripheral connecting profile integral with the support body, and a complementary connecting profile circumferentially formed along a mounting border of the rim, and which has a shape complementary to the peripheral connecting profile; wherein the peripheral connecting profile and the complementary connecting profile both have a radius of angularly variable dimensions with continuity on a plane transverse to the rotation axis, and wherein the peripheral connecting profile and the complementary connecting profile both comprise at least one respective convex portion in a cross-sectional view in relation to the axis to render the rim and the wheel hub angularly integral in relation to each other; and wherein the peripheral connecting profile comprises a distance piece with a substantially axially extending mounting neck.
