Description

FIG. 1 is an upper perspective view of a boltless unitary ring gear-flange body showing the new design;
FIG. 2 is a lower perspective view of the boltless unitary ring gear-flange body of FIG. 1 ;
FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the boltless unitary ring gear-flange body of FIG. 1 ;
FIG. 4 is a side elevation view of the boltless unitary ring gear-flange body of FIG. 1 , the opposite side being a mirror image thereof; and,
FIG. 5 is a bottom plan view of the boltless unitary ring gear-flange body of FIG. 1 .
In an illustrative example, the claimed ornamental design may operate to rotate a body when coupled thereto and driven, for example, by at least one mating drive mechanism. The broken lines shown in the drawings illustrate unclaimed portions of the claimed design and form no part of the claimed design.
