Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 117 words
A spinner hubcap for a motor vehicle comprising: a hollow cover member having a base portion; a flange member having a plurality of equally angularly displaced apertures formed therethrough, each of said apertures having a periphery defined by the peripheries of the noncommon area portions of an overlapping first circle of a first diameter and second circle of a second diameter wherein the first circle and the second circle each have different centers displaced radially from an axis of rotation of the hubcap a first distance or a second distance respectively; and fastener means for fastening said flange member to said base portion of said hollow cover member in centered relationship relative to their axis of rotation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 117 words
A spinner hubcap for a motor vehicle comprising: a hollow cover member having a base portion; a flange member having a plurality of equally angularly displaced apertures formed therethrough, each of said apertures having a periphery defined by the peripheries of the noncommon area portions of an overlapping first circle of a first diameter and second circle of a second diameter wherein the first circle and the second circle each have different centers displaced radially from an axis of rotation of the hubcap a first distance or a second distance respectively; and fastener means for fastening said flange member to said base portion of said hollow cover member in centered relationship relative to their axis of rotation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
The spinner hubcap of claim 1 wherein the centers of both circles defining each of said apertures are located at different points on the same radian extending from the axis of rotation of the spinner hubcap.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 57 words
The spinner hubcap of claim 2 in which said hollow cover member is formed with a plurality of radially projecting apertured ears formed at the base portion thereof; and said fastener means include a plurality of metal screws extending through said apertured ears and said flange member for securing said hollow cover member to said flange member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
The spinner hubcap of claim 2 in which the smaller diameter circle of the two overlapping circles has center that is located more radially outward than the center of the larger diameter other said circle.
