Patent attributes
A vehicle trim assembly for mounting directly or indirectly to a vehicle wheel has a center cap, a locking member, and a cap badge. The locking member is mounted on the center cap, whereby a number of projecting portions provided on the locking member engage with a corresponding number of resilient catches provided on the center cap. The locking member is rotatable between a lock and an unlock position. In the lock position, separation of the center cap from the vehicle wheel is prevented by the locking member. When the cap badge is fitted to the assembly, features on the rear face of the cap badge engage with corresponding cooperating features on the center cap and the locking member, thereby preventing the locking member from moving relative to the center cap. An interference locking arrangement prevents the locking member from accidentally rotating from a lock to an unlock position.
