We started weaning my daughter off the paci at 12 months. She is only allowed to use it for naps, when she is tired on a car ride and bedtime. We also gave her a minnie mouse to sleep with for comfort. Now at 17 months Iâm going to cut the end of the paci and hopefully she will not want it anymore.
Rim (wheel) The rim is the outer edge of a wheel, holding the tire. It makes up the outer circular design of the wheel on which the inside edge of the tire is mounted on vehicles such as automobiles. For example, on a bicycle wheel the rim is a large hoop attached to the outer ends of the spokes of the wheel that holds the tire and tube.
There are two basic types of wheel/rim systems. Vehicles that have spoke wheels have the wheels permanently (they aren't removed when the tire is changed) attached to the vehicle. Tires are mounted on rims that have no center discs. These rims slip over the spokes and are clamped to the spokes of the wheels. These wheel/rim systems are called spoke wheel/demountable rim systems. The second major system type is the disc wheel system. Here, the rim is permanently welded to a wheel with a disc in the center containing a mounting face with a bolt hole circle. This wheel is bolted onto the vehicle with studs that are inserted through holes in the hub, brake drum and wheel and fastened with lug nuts.
