METHOD OF OPERATION AND DEVICE OF A TIRE FOR A VEHICLE WITH ASSEMBLY-DISASSEMBLY COMPONENT ELEMENTS

FIELD OF ENGINEERING

The invention relates to a method of operation and a device for a tire for a transport vehicle with collapsible-detachable component elements, intended for use in various operating conditions of vehicles, which finds specific application in various vehicles intended for sports, tourism or transport. It also applies to electric cars, hybrid cars, and wheelchairs.

PRIOR ART

It is known that in tires used for vehicles, different tire surface reliefs must be used, and hence different tires, with a view to least wear and greatest safety, which are different under specific conditions.

Summer, winter and universal tires are used in constructions of different companies. When operating conditions change, each time it is necessary to dismantle one tire and install another, for the corresponding new conditions, suitable for the case.

After the installation of each tire, according to the safety requirements at work, checks, balance and other procedures are required. This involves an expenditure of time and money, where many drivers may commit offenses in order to cut costs or save time.

Every tire, after its use, is subject to degradation. This worldwide problem is increasing over the years. Great difficulties arise when trying to recycle tires.

TECHNICAL ESSENCE

The task of the invention is to create a method of assembly, operation and disassembly of a compound tire for a vehicle with assembled and disassembled elements, as well as devices to work according to this method. Each of the devices shown is intended for use in different conditions, which will find application in vehicles intended for sports, tourism or transportation. It will apply to electric cars, hybrid cars as well as wheelchairs.

The task is solved with the created method of assembly, operation and disassembly, as well as with the shown devices of a tire, on the peripheral part of which various elements can be mounted. The elements that can be assembled, functioned and disassembled can be one or several, which do not disturb the correct balance of the tire in the operation of the vehicle.

The tire assembly method and devices shown have the following advantages:

- The number of tires that a specific vehicle must have is reduced for different operating conditions. After the installation of each tire, according to the safety requirements at work, balance and other procedures are no longer required. This saves time and money. The number of hard-to-degrade tires after their use is reduced.

- Removed the procedure of periodically mounting and dismounting the tires themselves from the rims with other compatible tires, followed by their inspection, balance and similar procedures.

- Repair work is facilitated for the drivers of the vehicles, reasons for which may arise while on the road.

- The possibility of mounting and dismounting of a different component of the tire is created, which may be more suitable under changed conditions.

- The risk of a flat tire is reduced.

- Tire wear will be reduced, thanks to the replacement with elements suitable for a certain type of road surface.

USE OF THE INVENTION

The action of a vehicle tire working together with the collapsible-detachable components of the type (2) takes place after the tire 1 has a pressure drop in it. Assembled elements (2) are installed on the tire, and after their installation, the tire (1) is inflated, which results in a fixed attachment between the elements (2) and the tire (1), which protects the elements (2) from slipping with the tire (1). After installation, the tire with the elements (2) mounted on it is able to perform its function under the specific conditions. After a period of operation of the tire or during repair work, conversely, when the pressure of the tire drops, the assembled elements (2) are separated, and they have the possibility to be reworked or repaired, in which case the elements (2) are again included in assembly process, with the possibility both of their repeated operation under the same conditions, and also of the installation of other compatible collapsible elements, with the possibility, under new operating conditions, of their appropriate replacement.

In the operation of the tire in the case of the inclined rim, at one angle of inclination of the axis of the tire with the rim with respect to the road, contact can be made with one element, and at another inclination, contact with another element.

In Figure 3, the tire (1), after assembly, has two ring elements (3 and 4). The operation of the tire can be carried out when the tire is in contact with a horizontal axis of operation with respect to the road, in which the elements (3 and 4) are in contact at the same time. A variant is possible when the tire is operated at an angle of its axis, in which contact is made only on one of the elements (3) and sequentially with (4). The operation of the tire in the case of Fig. 4 can take place when the tire is in contact with a horizontal axis of operation with respect to the road and then elements (5, 6 and 7) are in contact. It is possible to make contact with only one of the elements (5) and sequentially with element (7) when working with the tire under an inclination of its axis. A variant is possible where (5 and 6) and (6 and 7) are in contact.

The operation of the tire according to Fig. 5 can be carried out, under certain operating conditions, with element (8), and after the dismantling of element (8), under other conditions, with element (9).

The operation of the tire (according to fig. 6) can be carried out, under certain operating conditions, with the element (10). After dismantling (10), under other conditions, element (11) works. After dismantling (11), element (12) works.

When working with such a tire (see Fig. 7), lateral traction forces appear, which, at suitable convergence angles, are useful for the dynamics of the tire's operation, as well as for reducing its wear.

The operation of the tire (according to fig. 8) can be carried out when the tire is in contact with a horizontal axis of operation in relation to the road, in which the elements (3) and (4) are in contact at the same time. It is possible to make contact with only one of the elements (3) or (4) when the tire is operated under an inclination of its axis. After disassembly of (3 and 4), under specific operating conditions, the tire works in contact with element (9).

As with the operation of the tire in devices 2, 3, and 7, in the case (fig. 9) contact of the tire with elements (15) is made, when with a horizontal axis of operation in relation to the road, in which they are in contact at the same time some parts of the segmental elements (15), and when the tire is operated at an angle of its axis, to make contact on different parts of the segmental elements (15).
