Definitions

  • the present invention relates to cyclically moveable ground-engaging structure for providing cushioning on an engaged ground surface.
  • the ground-engaging structure may, for example, comprise a tyre for a wheel or a ground-contacting structure for an endless track. More particularly, the invention relates to such ground-engaging structures which are of non-pneumatic character.
  • the present invention is a development of a tyre disclosed in International Application PCT/AU95/00514, the contents of which are incorporated herein by way of reference.
  • a cyclically moveable ground-engaging structure in the form of a tyre comprising a resiliently deformable body having an inner surface for engagement with a cyclically moveable support such as wheel rim.
  • the annular body is provided with a plurality of cavities which enhance its ability to deform.
  • the cavities comprise a first set of cavities arranged in circumferentially spaced apart relationship and a second set of cavities arranged in circumferentially spaced apart relationship. The cavities extend crosswise through the body and open onto opposed sides of the tyre.
  • the first set of cavities is positioned outwardly of the second set in the direction away from the inner surface, and each of the cavities in the first set is aligned (in a direction normal to the direction of cyclical movement) with a respective one of the cavities in the second set.
  • the tyre has a series of alternating comparatively hard and soft sectors which extend across the tyre between the opposed sides thereof, the hard sectors corresponding to the solid zones and the soft sectors corresponding to the zones where the cavities are present.
  • the alternating hard and soft sectors are not conducive to a smooth ride.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a ground-engaging structure which offers improved ride characteristics.
  • the present invention provides a cyclically moveable ground-engaging structure comprising a resiliently deformable body having an inner surface and two opposed lateral sides, a plurality of cavities on each of two opposed sides of the body, each cavity having one end thereof opening onto the respective side of the body and being closed or of a reduced cross-sectional area at the other end, the cavities on one side of the body being offset in the direction of cyclical movement with respect to the cavities on the other side of the body.
  • the cavities are staggered in the direction of cyclical movement and this provides an arrangement of hard and soft sectors which is more conducive to a consistent ride than the tyre disclosed in the aforementioned international application.
  • the cavities comprise a first set of cavities on each of the two opposed sides of the body, and there may be provided a second set of cavities on each of the two opposed sides of the body, the cavities in the second sets each having one end thereof opening onto the respective side of the body and being closed or of a reduced cross-sectional area at the other end, the first set of cavities on each side being disposed outwardly of the second set of cavities on the same side in the direction away from the inner surface, the cavities in the first set on each side being offset in the direction of cyclical movement with respect to the cavities in the second set on the same side, the cavities in the first set on one side of the body being offset in the direction of cyclical movement with respect to the cavities in the first set on the other side of the body, and the cavities in the second set on one side of the body being offset in the direction of cyclical movement with respect to the cavities in the second set on the other side of the body.
  • the cavities on each side of the body are staggered in the direction of cyclical movement and so no one of said cavities is in alignment with any other one of said cavities in a direction normal to the direction of cyclical movement.
  • the cavities are distributed within the body in a manner which avoids, or at least reduces the effect of, di ⁇ crete hard and soft zones and so offers an even more consistent ride.
  • the cavities on each side of the body open at their outer ends onto the respective side and are closed at their inner ends.
  • each cavity terminates before the centre of the tyre.
  • the ground-engaging structure is provided with a central web extending circumferentially within the body.
  • This central web provides the ground-engaging structure with a central region which is harder than the outer regions adjacent the lateral sides. This is a desirable feature in tyres.
  • the presence of the central web allows the ground-engaging structure to withstand the high twisting forces to which it is likely to be exposed during steering.
  • the cavities in each set are in spaced apart relationship in the direction of cyclical movement of the structure, the spacing between adjacent cavities in each set being about the same as the maximum dimension of the cavity in the direction of cyclical movement.
  • the relative size of the cavities and the spacings therebetween can be varied, such as for example to accommodate different rubber compounds used to manufacture the ground-engaging structure. Where the cross-sectional size of the cavities is less than the spacings therebetween, load-bearing radial webs may be formed on each side of the body between the cavities.
  • the cavities are of a rounded shape in cross-section.
  • the rounded shape of the cavities in the first set may comprise a pair of spaced apart arcs with the concave sides thereof in facing relationship, and intermediate Iines extending between the arcs. Where the two arcs have unequal radii of curvature, the larger arc may be disposed towards the inner end of the tyre.
  • the intermediate Iines extending between the arcs may be curved, with the result that the shape of the cavity in cross-section may be a closed curve such as an ovate.
  • Each cavity is preferably longitudinal and of a substantially constant orientation throughout its length within the body.
  • the cavities may extend axially into the body so as to be normal to the direction of cyclical movement.
  • the cavities, or at least some of the cavities may be inclined in the axial direction and thereby inclined to the direction of cyclical movement.
  • the cavities in the second set are conventionally of a generally circular cross-section, they may be of any other suitable cross-sectional shape, such as for example the shape of the cavities in the first set.
  • the ground-engaging structure may be of a one-piece construction or it may be formed of a plurality of ground-engaging segments which can be assembled together to provide a ground-engaging structure of composite construction.
  • a ground-engaging structure of one-piece construction is advantageous in that it generates less heat during operation than a structure of composite construction. This is because the one-piece construction does not have the interfaces between the segments, which exist in the composite construction and which are in rubbing contact during cyclical movement of the ground-engaging structure.
  • the invention also provides a ground-engaging segment which along with other such segments can be assembled to form a ground-engaging structure as hereinbefore defined.
  • the present invention further provides a cyclically moveable ground-engaging structure comprising a resiliently deformable body having an inner surface and two opposed lateral sides, a plurality of cavities provided in the body, said cavities comprising a first set of cavities and a second set of cavities on each of the two lateral sides of the body, each cavity having one end thereof opening onto the respective side of the body and being closed or of a reduced cross- sectional area at the other end, the first set of cavities on each side being disposed outwardly of the second set of cavities on the same side in the direction away from the inner surface, the cavities in the first set on each side being offset in the direction of cyclical movement with respect to the cavities in the second set on the same side, the cavities in the first set on one side of the body being offset in the direction of cyclical movement with respect to the cavities in the first set on the other side of the body, and the
  • the present invention further provides a tyre comprising a resiliently deformable annular body having an inner surface and two opposed lateral sides, a plurality of cavities provided in the body, said cavities comprising a first set of cavities and a second set of cavities on each of the two lateral sides of the body, each cavity having one end thereof opening onto the respective side of the body and being closed or of a reduced cross-sectional area at the other end, the first set of cavities on each side being disposed radially outwardly of the second set of cavities on the same side in the direction away from the inner surface, the cavities in the first set on each side being circumferentially offset with respect to the cavities in the second set on the same side, the cavities in the first set on one side of the body being circumferentially offset with respect to the cavities in the first set on the other side of the body, and the cavities in the second set on one side of the body being circumferentially offset with respect to the cavities in the second set on the other side of the body.

  • a tread formation 21 is provided on the outer face 19 for engagement with the ground surface.
  • a pair of opposed lateral side walls 23 extend between the inner portion 13 and the outer portion 17.
  • the inner end 13 is configured for engagement with a wheel rim of the conventional split-rim type.
  • a plurality of longitudinal cavities 30 are provided within the annular body to enhance its resilience for the purposes of providing a cushioned ride.

  • the first set 31 comprises a series of circumferentially spaced cavities 33
  • the second set 32 comprises a series of circumferentially spaced cavities 34.
  • the cavities 34 in the second set 32 are positioned radially inwardly of the cavities 33 in the first set 31 , as shown in the drawings.
  • Each cavity 33, 34 opens onto its respective side wall 23 of the tyre at its outer end 35 and extends crosswise into the body in an axial direction with respect to the tyre.
  • the cavities 33, 34 are closed at their inner ends 36 and are of a length which is less than half the width of the tyre such that the inner end of the cavity terminates before the centre of the tyre.
  • the central region of the tyre is provided with a load-bearing central web 37 which extends circumferentially around the annular body 11.
  • the cavities 33, 3A in the first and second sets are cf rounded configuration in cross-section.
  • each cavity 33 in the first set 31 has a cross-sectional shape which is an elongate closed curve 38 of ovate form.

This arrangement is advantageous as it has the effect of avoiding the formation of sharp corners in the cross-sectional shape of the cavity as it deflects under normal loading conditions on the tyre. Indeed, the ovate shape of the cavities tends to deflect towards a generally circular shape as the tyre is progressively loaded in normal operating conditions.
  • each cavity 33 in cross-section and the orientation of the cavity provides an arrangement in which the centroid of the cavity is adjacent the end thereof which is disposed towards the radially inner end of the tyre.

  • the cavities 33, 34 in the first and second sets on each side of the tyre are circumferentially offset (staggered) with respect to each other, as best seen in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the spacings 43 between neighbouring cavities 33 in the first set 31 are in radial alignment with the cavity 34 in the second set 32 on each side of the tyre.
  • the spacings 45 between neighbouring cavities 34 in the second set 32 are in radial alignment with the cavities 33 in the first set 31.
  • the cavities 33 in the first set 31 on one side of the tyre are circumferentially offset (staggered) with respect to the corresponding cavities 33 on the other side of the tyre, as shown in Figure 2.

  • Figure 5 illustrates the magnitude of the variation in the deflection of the tyre according to the embodiment when under load and rolling over a smooth surface.
  • the drawing shows that the deflections are at a comparatively high frequency and are of a comparatively low magnitude. Indeed, the magnitude of variation in the deflection is about 2.5% of the total deflection of the tyre when under load.
  • the ride provided by the tyre according to the embodiment can be compared with that offered by the tyre disclosed in aforementioned International Application PCT/AU95/00514 by reference to Figure 6 of the drawings.

  • cavities A in the first set are radially aligned with cavities B in the second set, and radially extending load-bearing webs C are defined between the cavities.
  • the cavities A and B extend entirely through the tyre and open onto opposed sides thereof.
  • the solid sectors of the tyre corresponding to the load-bearing webs C offer comparatively little deflection, and the sectors in which the cavities A and B are present offer significantly more deflection, as seen in Figure 6. Indeed, the magnitude of the variation in deflection is approximately 10% of the total deflection under load. Accordingly, the tyre provides a very irregular ride.
  • the ride is somewhat improved by providing a tyre in which the cores A and B are circumferentially offset while still extending entirely through the body.
  • This arrangement is illustrated on Figure 7 from which it can be seen that the magnitude of the variations in the deflections are a little more regular but certainly not as regular as the tyre according to the embodiment.
  • the magnitude of the variation in deflection in Figure 7 is about 7.5% of the total deflection under load.
  • the graph shows two sets of peaks, the larger one corresponding to cavities A and the smaller one corresponding to cavities B.
  • the ride is improved somewhat further by forming the cavities A and B as core holes closed at their inner ends and aligned on opposed sides of the tyre.
  • This arrangement provides a central load-bearing web.
  • the magnitude of the variation in the deflection in Figure 8 is about 5% of the total deflection under load.
  • the tyre of the present embodiment is of overall stiffer construction than the tyres illustrated in Figures 6, 7 and 8. This increased stiffness arises because of the arrangement of the cavities within the tyre. The increased stiffness can be offset by use of a softer rubber to construct the tyres. This has the benefit of less hysteresis, and so generates less heat and offers a longer life.
  • the first embodiment provides a tyre having a comparatively smooth ride, so providing some of the benefits of a pneumatic tyre without susceptibility to puncturing.
  • the tyre may well also use less rubber than the tyre disclosed in the aforementioned international application.
  • the cavities may be made larger to compensate for the increased stiffness due to the arrangement of the cavities.
  • the present tyre also has improved durability owing to the presence of the central web which allows it to withstand the high twisting forces to which it is likely to be exposed during steering.
  • the set 31 of cavities comprises a series of circumferentially spaced cavities 33 on each side of the tyre.
  • the cavities 33 on one side of the tyre are each identified by reference numeral 33a and the cavities 33 on the other side of the tyre are each identified by reference numeral 33b.
  • the cavities 33a on one side of the tyre are circumferentially offset (staggered) with respect to the cavities 33b on the other side, as best shown in Figure 10.
  • the cavities 33 are of an ovate shape.
  • the cavitie ⁇ 33 (and indeed the cavities 34 in the first embodiment) may of course be of any other suitable shape.
  • the intermediate Iines 39c, 39d connecting the arcs 39a, 39b of each cavity 33 may be straight or of any suitable shape, as an alternative to the arcuate shape described in relation to the first embodiment.
  • the two arcs 39a, 39b may be of equal radii of curvature as an alternative to the arrangement shown in the drawings where the radii of curvature are unequal. Still further, the radius of curvature of one of the arcs of each cavity 33 may be only slightly larger than the radius of curvature of the other arc, instead of being considerably larger as is the case in the illustrated embodiments.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne une structure cycliquement mobile pour contact au sol telle qu'un pneu. Ce pneu est constitué d'un corps (11) déformable par élasticité et caractérisé par une face intérieure (15) et deux flancs opposés (23). Le corps est pourvu d'une pluralité de cavités (11) réparties en un premier ensemble (31) et un second ensemble (32) sur chacun des flancs du corps. L'une des extrémités de chaque cavité débouche sur le flanc correspondant (23) du corps, l'autre extrémité étant fermée. Le premier ensemble (31) de cavités de chaque flanc se présente extérieurement au second ensemble (32) de cavités du même flanc en partant de la face intérieure (15). Les cavités (33) du premier ensemble (31) de chaque flanc sont décalées selon le sens du mouvement cyclique par rapport aux cavités (34) du second ensemble (32) du même flanc. Les cavités (33) du premier ensemble (31) d'un flanc du corps sont décalées selon le sens du mouvement cyclique par rapport aux cavités (33) du premier ensemble (31) de l'autre flanc du corps, et les cavités (34) du second ensemble d'un flanc du corps sont décalées selon le sens du mouvement cyclique par rapport aux cavités (34) du second ensemble (32) de l'autre flanc du corps. Grâce à cette disposition, les cavités (33, 34) de chaque flanc (23) du corps (11) se présentent en quinconce selon le sens du mouvement cyclique, et de cette façon, aucune des cavités (33, 34) n'est dans l'alignement d'aucune autre cavité selon le sens perpendiculaire au sens du mouvement cyclique.
