Patent attributes
A mudguard fastening support is intended to connect the mudguard to a hub of a turning wheel. In a normal turning position, the mudguard turns with the wheel. The mudguard fastening support has a flexible structure in such a manner that a stop element prevents the mudguard from turning along with the wheel at an angle that is larger than a specific turning angle. With the flexible structure the mudguard is returned to turn with the wheel at an angle that is smaller than said specific turning angle. The mudguard fastening support has a turning sleeve to be fixed to the mudguard and a support element to be fixed to the hub of the wheel. The turning sleeve and support element have form surfaces facing each other, one of which forms a support surface and the other forms a mating surface. The support surface has a tip part with a rounded peak toward the mating surface. The mating surface has an operating position recess which is furthest away from the support surface and to which in a normal operating situation the tip part is to be arranged, and adjacent to the operating position recess, a bevelled surface.
