In Option A,
the ribs are reshaped to angle around the bolt slots.
This provides
clearance for the washers on the bolts, as well as easy wrench access during assembly.
Reducing the height of the ribs provides more clearance and reduces
interference with the inner diameter of the wheel hub.
But the ribs are same thickness as the original design; an increase in
thickness would provide additional strength and stiffness.
|
Option A is a good design improvement, but does not address the
opportunity for strength and stiffness improvement.
