The tire loses the supporting force due to the sudden drop of the air pressure of the wheel at the moment of tire burst, the running stability of the automobile disappears instantly, and when the speed of the automobile reaches 120km/h, the accident death rate caused by the tire burst of the front drive is close to 100 percent. Therefore, some emergency measures are needed to keep a certain stability at the moment when the vehicle runs at a high speed and a tire is burst, so as to give a certain reaction time to a driver to control the vehicle and complete braking. CN211416839U discloses a tire burst emergency hub, which is characterized in that an emergency pile is welded inside a rim, so that a top block is in contact with the ground through a tire after tire burst to play a supporting role; however, in practical situations, the air pressure inside the tire suddenly drops, and the hub is difficult to avoid contacting the ground, so that the stress mode of the hub is changed essentially. Under the original air pressure, the inner ring of the wheel hub, namely the wheel rim, is subjected to uniform surface load, and the position with the maximum stress is positioned at the bolt hole; when the tire loses the internal air pressure, the hub is approximately in rigid contact with the ground, the lowest side of the hub is pressed, the longitudinal compression tendency is generated, and the transverse stretching tendency is generated, so that the hub is easy to deform or crush. Therefore, the deformation of the wheel hub is difficult to avoid only by adopting a mechanical elastic support method, and on the contrary, stress can be concentrated, so that the deformation possibility of the wheel hub is increased, and the vehicle is out of control.

A explosion proof wheel hub 100 with a cushion structure according to the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, includes a rim 20 and a wheel disc 10 coupled inside the rim 20, wherein a tire is adapted to be mounted on the rim 20,
further comprising:
elastic means 30 comprising: a mechanical spring 31, one end of said mechanical spring 31 being adapted to be coupled to said rim 20 and the other end thereof being adapted to extend towards the inner sidewall of said tyre, said elastic means 30 being configured so that said mechanical spring 31, when compressed, has a tendency to move towards said tyre;
an airbag module 40, comprising: an air bag 41, a gas generating agent 42 filled in the air bag 41 and a trigger 43 which is in contact with the gas generating agent 42 and is used for triggering the gas generating agent 42, wherein the air bag 41 is suitable for being installed on a wheel rim 20 and is arranged in the air bag 41, and when the pressure born by the wheel hub 100 reaches a threshold pressure, the trigger 43 triggers the gas generating agent 42 to expand the air bag 41 so as to lift up the tire;
wherein the height of the elastic means 30 in the non-stressed state is higher than the height of the airbag module 40 in the non-inflated state.
Specifically, when the tire is punctured, the elastic device 30 first receives pressure from the tire, and in the process, the mechanical spring 31 is deformed under pressure and gives a supporting force to the inner side wall of the tire; when the pressure borne by the hub 100 reaches a threshold pressure, the trigger 43 triggers the gas generating agent 42 to expand the air bag 41, so as to lift up the inner side wall of the tire, and an elastic air film layer is formed between the hub 100 and the ground; through the arrangement of the elastic device 30 and the airbag module 40, the wheel hub 100 can be in flexible contact with the ground, the wheel hub 100 is prevented from deforming or collapsing, the vehicle can maintain the stability of the vehicle after the tire burst occurs, and the wheel hub 100 is sensitive in response and reliable in structure.
It should be noted that gas generant 42 may be a combustion agent and trigger 43 may be used to ignite an igniter of the combustion agent, for example, trigger 43 may ignite gas generant 42 to produce N2 or release compressed nitrogen from a gas reservoir to fill bladder 41.
It will be appreciated that the elastic means 30 in a compressed state has a compression limit height lower than the height of the bladder assembly 40 after inflation, so that the bladder assembly 40 can effectively support the tire.
In one example of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 4, the elastic device 30 further includes:
a guide rod 32 disposed inside the mechanical spring 31 and having one end detachably coupled to the rim 20 and the other end extending toward the tire;
wherein, the guiding rod 32 is a telescopic structure capable of guiding the mechanical spring 31 to synchronously extend and retract along the radial direction of the hub 100;
that is, the guide rod 32 can guide the mechanical spring 31 in the elastic device 30, and the mechanical spring 31 is prevented from deflecting when being subjected to non-positive pressure to affect the buffer supporting function of the mechanical spring 31; and the guide rod 32 can also play a role of auxiliary support, under special conditions, after the tire bursts, if the tire collides with a sharp object, the instant impact force is larger, and the instant impact force may be larger than the limit elastic force of the mechanical spring 31, and under the condition that the mechanical spring 31 does not reach the limit elastic force, the guide rod 32 can play a role of hard support for the tire.
In one example of the present invention, the guide bar 32 includes: gas spring, wherein the initial pressure P of the gas inside the gas spring t Standard atmospheric pressure P and initial pressure P of the gas inside the tyre L The three satisfy the following conditions: p < P t <P L (ii) a This makes it possible to obtain a tire that is not punctured, due to the internal gas pressure P of the tire L Is greater than the initial pressure P of the gas in the gas spring t So that the air spring is in a compressed state, and once the tire burst occurs, the pressure of the air in the tire is instantaneously reduced to the external standard atmospheric pressure P, so that the air spring extends and lifts up to lift up the inner side wall of the tire; therefore, the occupied space of the elastic device 30 can be reduced, and the tire is prevented from being deformed under the external instant impact force and contacting with the elastic device 30 to cause hard contact; moreover, the gas spring is of the prior art and comprises a pressure cylinder, a piston rod, a piston and an inert gas or oil-gas mixture filled between the pressure cylinder and the piston, which has a minimum working position and a maximum working position, corresponding to the maximum and minimum stress limit positions of the mechanical spring 31, respectively, and which can be contracted along with the compression of the mechanical spring 31.
It should be noted that the initial pressure of the gas inside the gas spring is less than or equal to 2bar and the initial pressure P of the gas inside the tyre L >2bar。
When the tire is in a normal pressure state, the tire pressure is higher than the internal pressure of the air spring, and the air spring is compressed and contracted, so that the elastic device 30 can be effectively prevented from contacting the inner wall of the tire when the vehicle normally runs. When the tire burst happens, the pressure in the tire suddenly drops, the air spring rapidly restores to the working position and provides the supporting force together with the mechanical spring 31
It is worth mentioning that the guide bar 32 may also include: the structure of the mechanical spring 31 comprises a first cylinder body, a second cylinder body which can stretch into and retract from the first cylinder body, and elastic pieces which are arranged in the first cylinder body and the second cylinder body, so that synchronous stretching movement with the mechanical spring 31 can be realized.
In one example of the present invention, the upper end of the guide bar 32 is further provided with a support plate 33 so as to increase the contact area of the mechanical spring 31 with the inner sidewall of the tire.
In an example of the present invention, the elastic device 30 includes a plurality of elastic devices, and the elastic devices are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the rim 20, and by arranging the plurality of elastic devices 30, the flexible force bearing area of the tire can be increased, so that the force bearing is more stable, and the safety of the hub 100 is improved.
In one example of the invention, the mounting position of the elastic means 30 at least partially coincides with the projection position of the wheel disc 10 on the rim 20 along the radial direction of the hub 100;
that is, the wheel disc 10 can support the elastic device 30 to a certain extent, so that the elastic device 30 can be supported stably and reliably;
it is further preferred that the mounting position of the elastic means 30 is entirely within the projected position of the wheel disc 10 on the wheel rim 20 in the radial direction of the wheel hub 100, so that the reliability of the support is stronger.
In one example of the present invention, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the airbag module 40 further includes:

In one example of the present invention, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the method further includes:
a flap 45, said flap 45 being provided at the open end of said flexible housing 44;
when the air bag 41 is expanded, the baffle 45 is jacked to abut against the inner side wall of the tire;

In one example of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 4, the airbag module 40 further includes:
a pressure sensor 34 coupled to the elastic device 30 and coupled to the trigger 43;

that is, the elastic device 30 will press on the pressure sensor 34 after being deformed, and the pressure sensor 34 triggers the trigger 43 to ignite the gas generating agent 42 according to whether the pressure borne by the elastic device 30 reaches the pressure threshold value;
specifically, after the tire bursts, the elastic device 30 first receives pressure from the tire, in the process, the mechanical spring 31 is deformed under pressure and gives a supporting force to the inner side wall of the tire, in the process, the pressure sensor 34 detects the pressure of the elastic device 30, and when the pressure received by the wheel hub 100 reaches a threshold pressure, the control trigger 43 triggers the gas generating agent 42 to expand the air bag 41, so as to lift the inner side wall of the tire, and thus an elastic air film layer is formed between the wheel hub 100 and the ground.
