Non-inflatable wheel with changeable wheel diameter and tire width
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of automobiles, in particular to a non-inflatable wheel with variable wheel diameter and tire width.
Background
Tires are the only components of the road to vehicle interaction that are capable of responding to the driver's dynamic instructions and supporting the vehicle's own weight, thereby mitigating jolts and various complex excitations of the vehicle on rough roads to improve the driving comfort of the vehicle. At present, pneumatic tires are still the mainstream of the tire industry, but the defects of the pneumatic tires are obvious, such as poor puncture resistance, incapability of normal running after air leakage, tire burst risk and the like. Accordingly, researchers have gradually tried new research directions and non-pneumatic tires have been developed. The non-pneumatic tire has no complex structures such as an inner liner, a belt layer and the like of the pneumatic tire, reduces the efficiency of air leakage and tire burst while simplifying the structure, and greatly improves the running safety of the vehicle. However, non-pneumatic wheels, while having many advantages, are limited when faced with a variety of complex ground environments such as potholes, hills, mud accumulation and water accumulation.
On the basis of non-inflation, the wheels with the changeable wheel diameters and tread widths are suitable for different road surfaces, when the vehicle runs on uneven road surfaces, the wheels with the changeable wheel diameters are in an open state, the distance between the chassis of the vehicle and the ground is increased, the contact area between the tires and the ground is reduced, the passing performance and smoothness of the vehicle are improved, and when the vehicle runs on flat good road surfaces, the wheels are in a closed state, and the running speed of the vehicle is improved.
At present, research on changing the wheel diameter and the tire width of the wheel is relatively limited, and a variable-wheel-diameter deformed wheel is disclosed in China patent document No. CN110356167B, and the wheel diameter of the deformed wheel can be changed according to different vehicle driving scenes. However, the axial width of the wheel cannot be changed by the technical scheme, the smoothness of the automobile can be deteriorated after the diameter of the wheel is enlarged, and the components are complex and are not easy to install and disassemble. In the related art of the present variable radius wheel, there is little research on combining the variable radius of the tire with a mechanical locking device, and most of the control is performed by an electric device such as an electromagnetic hydraulic valve, which causes consumption of electric power resources.
