The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art according to specific situations.
The present invention provides a rotation speed sensing device for a tire, which is used for sensing the rotation speed of the tire (the tire to be sensed is denoted as a), and a first embodiment of the rotation speed sensing device is shown in fig. 1 and comprises:
the tire control system comprises an energy module 1, a rotating speed sensing module 2 and a signal output module 3 which are arranged in a tire, wherein the signal output module 3 is electrically connected with the energy module 1 and the rotating speed sensing module 2 respectively;
the rotation speed sensing module 2 comprises at least one friction nano generator, and as shown in fig. 6, the friction nano generator is fixedly installed on a circumferential central line of the inner surface of the tread of the tire a as a sensing unit B, and can periodically pass through a ground contact footprint area of the tire a to generate alternating current under pressure when the tire a rotates, and at the moment, the electrical signal characteristic of the alternating current generated by the sensing unit B has a specific relation with the rotation speed of the tire a;
the signal output module 3 can output the electric signal characteristics of the alternating current obtained from the rotating speed sensing module 2 under the power of the power module.
In the above structure, the principle that the characteristics of the electric signal of the alternating current generated by the induction unit B are correlated with the rotation speed of the tire a is that: when the tire A rolls, the induction unit B arranged on the circumferential center line of the inner surface of the tire A periodically passes through the footprint area of the tire A and generates alternating current under pressure when the tire A passes through the footprint area, under the condition that the structure and the material of the induction unit B are determined, the short-circuit current of the generated alternating current is only influenced by the pressure and the pressure loading frequency, and the pressure loading frequency can be measured by the rotating speed of the tire A, so that the short-circuit current of the alternating current generated by the induction unit B is specifically related to the rotating speed of the tire A, and the rotating speed induction device of the tire can induce the rotating speed of the tire A. Further, the cycle of the short-circuit current and the cycle of the open-circuit voltage of the alternating current generated by the induction means B are specifically linked to the rotation speed of the tire a, and the rotation speed induction device of the tire according to the present invention can be realized to induce the rotation speed of the tire a.
In this embodiment, the signal output module 3 further includes an RF transmitter 31 and an MCU 32 electrically connected thereto. The RF radio frequency transmitter 31 can modulate the electrical signal received from the rotation speed sensing module 2 and send the modulated electrical signal out in a high-frequency filtering mode; the MCU microcontrol unit 32 enables in-depth control of the signal output module 3 from receiving data to transmitting signals.
The friction nano-generator in the above embodiments has various structures, and the first embodiment of the friction nano-generator, as shown in fig. 2, includes a flexible packaging cavity 21, and a conductive layer 22, a friction layer 23 and an insulating support layer 24 located inside the flexible packaging cavity 21;
two conductive layers 22 are respectively and fixedly arranged on two opposite inner walls of the flexible packaging cavity 21, and the two conductive layers 22 are electrically connected; the two friction layers 23 are respectively and fixedly arranged on the surfaces of the two conducting layers 22 far away from the flexible packaging cavity 21, and the materials of the two friction layers are different; meanwhile, an insulating support layer 24 is fixedly installed between the two friction layers 23, and the insulating support layer 24 is located at the corner of the two friction layers 23.
In the opposite direction of the two conductive layers 22, when the flexible packaging cavity 21 is compressed and deformed, the middle areas of the two friction layers 23 can contact and press friction, and when the pressure applied to the flexible packaging cavity 21 is reduced, the middle areas of the two friction layers 23 can be separated from contact and are far away from each other.
The friction nano generator has a simple structure, the flexible packaging cavity 21 can buffer the pressure applied to the friction nano generator, the conductive layer, the friction layer and the insulating supporting layer in the friction nano generator are protected, a relatively clean and dry closed environment is provided for the structure in the friction nano generator, the stability and the reliability of the whole structure of the friction nano generator are improved, the service life of the friction nano generator is prolonged, and the electric output performance and the energy conversion efficiency are optimized. Meanwhile, the flexible packaging cavity 21 improves the flexibility of the friction nano generator, and when the flexibility of the friction nano generator is higher than that of the tire A, the mechanical property of the tire A under stress cannot be excessively influenced due to the fact that the tire A is provided with the friction nano generator; meanwhile, the insulating support layer 24 is arranged to ensure that a certain interval is always kept between the two friction layers 23 when the friction nano-generator is in a natural state (more specifically, when the friction nano-generator is not in the contact patch area of the tire a), so as to generate electricity under pressure when passing through the contact patch area of the tire a.
When the friction nano generator is used as the induction unit B and does not enter the grounding trace area, the two friction layers are initially in a mutually separated state, when the induction unit B enters the grounding trace area, the inner surface of the tire tread in the grounding trace area generates vertical deformation so as to enable the induction unit B in the grounding trace area to be pressed and deformed, the two friction layers 23 are close to each other to be contacted, the mutual extrusion and friction generate static charges, then the induction unit B leaves the grounding trace area, the pressure borne by the induction unit B is gradually reduced to disappear, the two friction layers 23 are separated from the contact and are far away from each other, and alternating current is generated between the two conducting layers 22 based on electrostatic induction.
Here, it is equivalent to that the sensing unit B senses the periodic deformation of the inner surface of the tread, and the periodic deformation of the inner surface of the tread has the characteristics of low frequency and high amplitude, so that the strength of the insulating support layer 24 in the sensing unit B needs to be optimally designed, for example, when a relationship between a short-circuit current peak value of alternating current and the rotation speed of the tire a needs to be established, the two friction layers 23 in the sensing unit B need to be in sensitive contact when the tire a is loaded, so as to eliminate the influence of the original distance between the two friction layers 23 on the short-circuit current peak value, and the short-circuit current peak value is only linearly related to the frequency of the sensing unit B entering the grounding footprint area.
In the friction nano-generator, furthermore, the two friction layers 23 may be made of different materials, are not adjacent to each other in the triboelectric series, and are arranged as far as possible in the triboelectric series, so that the two friction layers 23 can generate more charges when contacting each other, which is more beneficial to the power generation of the friction nano-generator in the embodiment. Furthermore, the two friction layers 23 are flexible film layers (i.e. flexible materials with small thickness), which can improve the flexibility of the friction nano-generator.
Here, the material of the friction layer 23 may be any one of polytetrafluoroethylene, polydimethylsiloxane, polyimide, polyvinylidene fluoride, polyethylene terephthalate, carbon nanotube, elastic silica gel, epoxy resin, brominated butyl rubber, and nylon material, as long as the materials of the two friction layers 23 are different.
Meanwhile, an insulating material selected for the flexible packaging cavity 21 can be set, and the insulating material comprises at least one of rubber, silica gel, elastic resin and polyimide, so that the flexibility requirement of the flexible packaging cavity 21 is met.
The insulating support layer 24 may further include a spring and/or an elastic polymer, and at this time, the insulating support layer 24 not only can ensure that a certain interval is always kept between the two friction layers 23 in the initial natural state, but also can provide restoring force for the two friction layers 23 to enable the two friction layers 23 to be quickly restored to the initial position when the pressure applied to the flexible enclosure 21 is reduced.
The second embodiment of the friction nanogenerator of the rotational speed sensing device of the invention is based on the previous embodiment, and at least one conductive layer 22 in the friction nanogenerator is arranged, and comprises a flexible substrate layer 221 and an electrode layer 222, wherein the flexible substrate layer 221 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the flexible packaging cavity 21, and the electrode layer 222 is fixedly arranged on the surface of the flexible substrate layer 221 close to the friction layer 23.
Fig. 3 shows that each of the two conductive layers 22 comprises a combination of a flexible substrate layer 221 and an electrode layer 222.
In this embodiment, the flexible substrate layer 221 is disposed to make the conductive layer 22 to which it belongs flexible, so as to improve the flexibility of the overall structure of the friction nano-generator, and further reduce the influence of the installation of the friction nano-generator on the tire on the mechanical performance of the tire when the tire is stressed.
The third embodiment of the friction nanometer generator of the rotating speed sensing device of the invention is based on the structure of the previous embodiment:
at least one flexible substrate layer 221 and the flexible packaging cavity 21 are arranged to be of an integrated insulation structure made of the same material, so that the structure of the friction nano generator is simplified; fig. 4 shows that the two flexible substrate layers 221 and the flexible encapsulation cavity 21 are all of the same integrated insulating structure.
Here, it can also be understood that, when the material of the flexible substrate layer 221 is selected and suitable for the material of the flexible packaging cavity 21, the inner wall of the flexible packaging cavity 21 can be used as a substrate of the electrode layer 222 while enclosing to form a closed cavity; when the material of the flexible substrate layer 221 is not suitable for the material of the flexible packaging cavity 21, the flexible substrate layer 221 and the flexible packaging cavity 21 need to be independently arranged.
The fourth embodiment of the friction nanogenerator of the rotation speed sensing device of the invention is based on the structures of the second and third embodiments of the friction nanogenerator of the rotation speed sensing device of the invention:
any friction layer 23 of the two friction layers 23 and the electrode layer 222 adjacent to the friction layer 23 are arranged to be of an integral conductive structure with the same material, so that the friction nano-generator can be ensured to normally generate electricity, and the structure of the friction nano-generator is simplified. Fig. 5 shows the integrated conductive structure 4, which is made of the same material as the lower friction layer 23 and the adjacent electrode layer 22 of the two friction layers 23 of the friction nano-generator.
In the present invention, the following design can also be adopted for the structure of the conductive layer 22:
at least one of the two conductive layers 23 includes a flexible substrate and a conductive medium mixed with the flexible substrate to form a flexible conductive film layer. For example, the flexible substrate can be a silica gel substrate with good flexibility, even a silica gel substrate subjected to vulcanization treatment, and the conductive medium can be silver-plated glass powder, or carbon nanotubes and carbon black. Of course, there is no particular limitation on the materials selected for the flexible substrate and the conductive medium, as long as the two can be mixed to form the flexible conductive film layer. At this time, the flexibility of the structure of the conductive layer 22 is improved, and the combination of the flexible substrate and the conductive medium improves the integrity of the structure, so that the structure is more stable and reliable.
A second embodiment of the rotational speed sensing apparatus of the present invention is based on the structure of any of the above embodiments, and is configured such that the energy module 1 includes at least one friction nano-generator described in any of the above embodiments, and as shown in fig. 7, the friction nano-generator is fixedly mounted on the inner surface of the tread and/or the inner surface of the sidewall of the tire a as a power generation unit C; the power generation unit C generates alternating current under pressure when passing through the ground contact patch area and can supply the alternating current to the signal output module 3.
It should be noted that the friction nanogenerator serving as the sensing unit B and the friction nanogenerator serving as the power generation unit C are the same only in the composition of the structure and the relationship between the structures, wherein the specific parameter design of each structure needs to be designed according to specific applications, so as to meet the sensing requirement of the sensing unit B and the power generation requirement of the power generation unit C respectively.
In this embodiment, the rotational speed sensing apparatus for a pneumatic tire according to the present invention further includes an energy management module 5, and in the rotational speed sensing apparatus for a pneumatic tire, the energy module 1, the energy management module 5, and the signal output module 3 are sequentially connected in series, and the energy management module 5 can supply the alternating current generated by the power generation unit C in the energy module 1 to the signal output module 3.
Further, the energy management module 5 may be configured to include a switch 51, a transformer 52, a rectifier bridge 53, and a capacitor 54, which are electrically connected. The switch 51 can solve the impedance mismatch problem of electric energy and improve the transfer efficiency of the electric energy; the transformer 52 can increase the output current and increase the charging speed of the capacitor 54; the ac power output from the transformer 52 is converted into dc power by the rectifier bridge 53, and then stored in the capacitor 54 to supply power to the subsequent signal output module 3.
In the above embodiments, the rotational speed sensing device of a pneumatic tire according to the present invention can realize passive operation without additionally connecting to another power source.
The process of generating the alternating current by the power generation unit C here is:
the tire A has a contact patch when rolling;
when the power generation unit C mounted on the inner surface of the tread and/or the inner surface of the sidewall of the tire a does not enter the footprint area, the two friction layers inside the power generation unit C are in a state of a spaced distance;

when the power generation unit C installed on the inner surface of the tread and/or the inner surface of the sidewall of the tire A gradually leaves the grounding imprint area, the pressure borne by the power generation unit C is reduced, two friction layers in the power generation unit C are gradually far away from each other to be separated from contact, and at the moment, electrostatic induction is generated between two conductive layers in the power generation unit C to further form induction current;
since the power generation unit C mounted on the inner surface of the tread and/or the inner surface of the sidewall of the tire a periodically passes through the footprint when the tire a rolls, an induced current is periodically generated to generate an alternating current.
In the above embodiment, the size of the selected power generation unit C is based on the fact that the mechanical property of the tire is not affected, the installation position of the selected power generation unit C is preferably based on the fact that the mass balance and the dynamic balance of the tire are not affected, and the number of the selected power generation units C, the electrical connection relationship (series connection and/or series-parallel connection) of the plurality of power generation units C, the area of the friction layer in each power generation unit C, and the interval between the two friction layers need to be designed comprehensively, so that the whole energy module 1 can meet the electric power required by the information output module 3.
A third embodiment of the rotational speed sensing apparatus of the present invention is based on the structure of the second embodiment of the rotational speed sensing apparatus of the present invention:

The distribution scheme of the friction nanometer generator can ensure the mass balance of the tire A as much as possible, and further ensure the dynamic balance of the tire A during rotation.
The invention also discloses a rotating speed estimation system of the pneumatic tire, which is used for estimating the rotating speed of the tire A, as shown in fig. 8, the rotating speed estimation system comprises the rotating speed sensing device of the pneumatic tire of the invention described in any embodiment, and an estimation module 6 in signal connection with the signal output module 3 in the rotating speed sensing device of the pneumatic tire of the invention, wherein the estimation module 6 is arranged in the vehicle and is electrically connected with the vehicle-mounted power supply D of the vehicle, and the rotating speed of the tire A can be estimated by utilizing the characteristics of the electric signals sent by the signal output module 3 under the energy supply of the vehicle-mounted power supply D.
Further, the estimation module 6 of the present invention further includes an RF receiver 61, an onboard control unit 62 and an LED display screen 63 electrically connected thereto. The RF receiver 61 receives the high-frequency filtering transmitted by the RF transmitter 51, modulates the high-frequency filtering into an electrical signal, analyzes and processes the electrical signal by the vehicle-mounted control unit 62 (a micro control unit may be selected), and displays the electrical signal on the LED display screen 63 in a data form for the vehicle interior personnel, particularly the driver to view.
