Abstract

An axle assembly for in-line skate wheels is provided. Each wheel is arranged between frame extensions having a plurality of opposing apertures. The axle assembly comprises a housing having a first open end, a second open end, and a longitudinal axis. A first tapered axle end is movable along the longitudinal axis within the first open end of the housing. A second tapered axle end is movable along the longitudinal axis within the second open end of the housing. A mechanism biases the ends in a general direction away from each other to urge the ends into the opposing apertures in the frame extensions.
