Abstract

Derzeit werden Felgen an den Fahrzeugen benutzt, welche vor allem die Aufgabe erfüllen, die Kräfte vom Fahrzeug an den festen Untergrund übertragen und dadurch die Fortbewegung des Fahrzeugs sicher ermöglichen. Es gibt verschiedene Formen (Design), die alle diese Grundforderung erfüllen. Diese Idee mit Luftführung bereichert eine herkömmliche Felge oder Radkappe um eine neue Eigenschaft, die zur höheren Bremswirkung und Luftausspülung des Radinneren beiträgt. Luftkanäle in Speichen einer Felge oder Luftführungsrippen in Zwischenwand einer Radkappe sind für diese neue Eigenschaft verantwortlich. Besonders bei der Felge bedeutet die Luftführung in Speichen Gewichtreduzierung (bis zu ca. 30% möglich). In beiden Fällen-Felge, Radkappe-bedeutet die Luftführung in den inneren Bereich des Rades höheren Sauberkeitsgrad des Rades und höhere Bremswirkung und dadurch höhere Fahrsicherheit.Currently, rims are used on the vehicles, which mainly fulfill the task to transmit the forces from the vehicle to the solid ground, thereby enabling the vehicle to travel safely. There are different forms (design) that meet all these basic requirements. This air-guiding idea enriches a conventional rim or hubcap with a new feature that contributes to the increased braking and air flushing of the wheel interior. Air ducts in spokes of a rim or air ducts in the intermediate wall of a hubcap are responsible for this new feature. Particularly in the case of the rim, the air routing in spokes means weight reduction (up to approx. 30% possible). In both cases-rim, hubcap-the air flow in the inner region of the wheel means higher degree of cleanliness of the wheel and higher braking effect and thus greater driving safety.

Description

Stand der Technik:State of the art:

Stahlfelgen, Leichtmettalfelgen (gegossen oder geschmiedet) sind Standardausrüstung von Fahrzeugen verschiedener Art.Steel rims, Leichtmettalfelgen (cast or forged) are standard equipment of vehicles of various kinds.

Das gleiche gilt auch für Radkappen.The same applies to hubcaps.

Ziel und Zweck einer Felge ist das Drehmoment einer Kraftmaschine auf die Fahrbahn zu übertragen, damit sich das Fahrzeug sicher und wirtschaftlich bewegen kann.The aim and purpose of a rim is to transmit the torque of an engine to the road so that the vehicle can move safely and economically.

Dabei sind manche physikalische Gesetze zu beachten.

  • – Die Felge soll leicht sein um die nicht abgefederte Masse zu minimieren
  • – Die Felge muß robust genug sein um sicher die für das Fahrzeug erforderliche Kräfte auf die Fahrbahn übertragen zu können
  • – Die Felge muß während des Fahrzeuglebens ihre Eigenschaften behalten können
  • – Die Felge muß wirtschaftlich herstellbar sein
  • – Die Felge muß den Einbau und ungehinderte Funktion der Bremsanlage ermöglichen
There are some physical laws to consider.
  • - The rim should be light to minimize the unsprung mass
  • - The rim must be robust enough to safely transmit the forces required for the vehicle on the road
  • - The rim must be able to retain its properties during vehicle life
  • - The rim must be economical to produce
  • - The rim must allow installation and unimpeded operation of the brake system

Meine neue patentwürdige Idee erfüllt diese alle Anforderungen restlos und bedeutet neue Maßstäbe in Sache Gewicht, Selbstreinigung und Bremsanlagelüftung und Kühlung im Rad.My new patent worthy idea meets all these requirements completely and means new standards in terms of weight, self-cleaning and brake system ventilation and cooling in the wheel.

Auch eine Radkappe, die nach meiner Idee geformt ist, ist imstande die Luftzufuhr so zu führen, daß die Kühlung der Bremsanlage davon profitiert.Also, a hubcap that is molded to my idea is capable of guiding the air supply so that the cooling of the brake system benefits from it.

Technische Beschreibung der neuen Idee:Technical description of the new idea:

Eine Felge besteht aus einer mittig angeordneten Aufnahme, der Lauffläche (Kranz), die den Reifen aufnimmt und einer Verbindung (Speichen oder Rippen).A rim consists of a centrally located receptacle, the tread (wreath) that receives the tire and a connection (spokes or ribs).

Die Verbindung wird in diesem Fall aus einer Art geformten Rohr, das in der Felgenmitte Öffnungen für die Luftaufnahme besitzt und am Ende im Bereich der Lauffläche (Kranz) Öffnungen für Luftausgang inne hat, hergestellt.The connection is in this case made of a type of molded tube having openings for the air intake in the middle of the rim and at the end in the region of the tread (ring) openings for air outlet held.

Die Luft wird während der Fahrt in der Radmitte auf der Außenseite des Fahrzeugs aufgenommen und durch Radrotation im Felgeninneren ausgeschleudert.The air is picked up while driving in the center of the wheel on the outside of the vehicle and ejected by Radrotation inside the rim.

Dort befindet sich Bremsanlage, welche durch die Luftströmung gekühlt und gereinigt wird.There is brake system, which is cooled by the air flow and cleaned.

Die Rohr-Form der Rippen (Speichen) bedeutet gleichzeitig Gewichtreduzierung der Felge ohne die Fahrsicherheit zu gefährden.The tubular shape of the ribs (spokes) means at the same time weight reduction of the rim without endangering the driving safety.

Diese Anordnung erhöht u. a. die Fahrsicherheit des Fahrzeugs durch erhöhte Bremswirkung und Fahrkomfort durch nicht abgefederte Gewichtreduzierung.This arrangement increases u. a. the driving safety of the vehicle by increased braking effect and driving comfort by not weighted suspension weight.

Die Radkappe kann dagegen die Gewichtreduzierung nicht anbieten, aber die Luftzufuhr zur Bremsanlage positiv beeinflussen und damit die Luftreinigung und Bremswirkung erhöhen.In contrast, the hubcap can not offer the weight reduction, but positively influence the air supply to the brake system and thus increase the air cleaning and braking effect.

Claims (1)

Felge oder Radkappe, dadurch gekennzeichnet daß, 1 – die Felge oder die Radkappe in Speichen (Rippen) Kanäle besitzt, welche zur Aufgabe haben, die durch die Fahrzeugbewegung außerhalb des Fahrzeugs entstandene Luftströmung zu transportieren. Mittels dieser Kanäle in das Innenbereich des Rades zur Bremsanlage wird die frische Luft transportiert und dadurch die Bremsanlage gekühlt, insbesondere beim Bremsvorgang. 2 – die Felge Kanäle in Speichen (Rippen) angebracht hat und damit wesentlich (bis zu ca. 30% des Gesamtgewichts) das Felgengewicht mindert. 3 – bei den Radkappen diese luftströmungsführenden Rippen (Kanäle) in sog. Zwischenwand angebracht sind.Rim or hubcap, characterized in that 1 - the rim or the wheel cap in spokes (ribs) has channels, which have the task of transporting the air flow generated by the vehicle movement outside the vehicle. By means of these channels in the interior of the wheel to the brake system, the fresh air is transported and thereby cooled the brake system, especially during braking. 2 - the rim has channels in spokes (ribs) attached and thus significantly (up to about 30% of the total weight) reduces the weight of the rim. 3 - in the hubcaps these airflow guiding ribs (channels) are mounted in so-called intermediate wall.
