Description

Tapacubos antigiro perfeccionado.Improved anti-rotation hubcap.

Objeto de la invenciónObject of the invention

La invención se refiere a un tapacubos antigiro perfeccionado, del tipo de los empleados para cubrir las llantas de las ruedas de los vehículos.The invention relates to an anti-rotation hubcap perfected, of the type of employees to cover the tires of The wheels of the vehicles.

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

Actualmente un problema que presentan los tapacubos que se utilizan para cubrir las llantas de las ruedas de los vehículos está relacionado con la dificultad que representa realizar en su colocación un correcto centraje y fijación respecto a la llanta. Si este centraje no es preciso, y se producen desplazamientos, éstos son muy visibles cuando gira la rueda por el efecto óptico que producen.Currently a problem presented by hubcaps that are used to cover the wheel rims of the vehicles is related to the difficulty it represents make a correct centering and fixation in relation to rim. If this centering is not accurate, and they occur displacements, these are very visible when you turn the wheel through the optical effect they produce.

Por otro lado tenemos que las tolerancias aceptadas en la fabricación de las llantas repercuten negativamente a la hora de intentar encajar los tapacubos en ellas, por cuanto la holgura existente, a veces, hace que el encaje no se produzca con la solidez precisa para garantizar una sujeción estable.On the other hand we have to tolerances accepted in the manufacture of the tires have a negative impact when trying to fit the hubcaps on them, because the existing slack, sometimes, causes the lace not to occur with the Precise strength to ensure stable support.

Además, actualmente, al situar los tapacubos en la llanta se plantean muchas veces problemas derivados de la presencia de la espita de la válvula de aire para inflar el neumático. En concreto, un problema de este tipo suele presentarse si el tapacubos, una vez posicionado sobre la llanta, tiene posibilidad de giro. Éste es un problema grave, por cuanto el mencionado giro puede ocasionar que se dañe la válvula de aire, pudiendo llegar en un caso extremo a producir su rotura y con ello la pérdida de aire del neumático.In addition, currently, by placing the hubcaps on the tire often arise problems arising from the presence of the air valve tap to inflate the tire. Specifically, a problem of this type usually occurs if the hubcap, once positioned on the tire, has possibility of rotation. This is a serious problem, because the mentioned rotation can cause the air valve to be damaged, being able to arrive in an extreme case to produce its breakage and with it The loss of air from the tire.

La sujeción actual se muestra muchas veces poco eficaz, siendo especialmente visible cuando se producen roces del tapacubos con los bordillos de las aceras. Este contacto muchas veces desemboca en un mero desplazamiento del tapacubos, pero también puede provocar la caída del mismo.The current hold is shown many times little effective, being especially visible when friction occurs hubcaps with sidewalk curbs. This contact many sometimes it leads to a mere displacement of the hubcap, but It can also cause it to fall.

Descripción de la invenciónDescription of the invention

Para solventar los problemas mencionados se ha ideado el tapacubos antigiro perfeccionado objeto de la invención, que aporta unas particularidades constructivas orientadas a facilitar un correcto centraje respecto a la llanta y asegurar su permanencia en una posición fija, es decir sin posibilidad de giro.To solve the aforementioned problems, devised the perfected anti-rotation hubcap object of the invention, which provides constructive particularities oriented to facilitate proper centering of the tire and ensure its permanence in a fixed position, that is to say without the possibility of turn.

De acuerdo con la invención, el tapacubos comprende un cuerpo sensiblemente circular que presenta en la cara posterior una serie de manguitos dispuestos en coincidencia con la cabeza de los tornillos encargados de sujetar la llanta al eje. Estos manguitos permiten introducir por sus embocaduras las cabezas de los tornillos, realizándose así el centraje y la inmovilización, frente al giro, del tapacubos respecto a la rueda.According to the invention, the hubcap it comprises a substantially circular body that presents on the face later a series of sleeves arranged in coincidence with the head of the screws responsible for attaching the tire to the axle. These sleeves allow the heads to be inserted through their mouths of the screws, thus centering and immobilization, in front of the rotation, of the hubcap with respect to the wheel.

La longitud de los manguitos dependerá del diseño del tapacubos, y en concreto de la distancia relativa entre éste respecto a la situación de las cabezas de los tornillos.The length of the sleeves will depend on the design of the hubcap, and in particular the relative distance between it Regarding the situation of the screw heads.

Además, también de acuerdo con la invención, los manguitos se hallan unidos entre sí por un nervio circundante alrededor del centro del cuerpo circular que conforma el tapacubos para reforzar su geometría.In addition, also according to the invention, the sleeves are joined together by a surrounding nerve around the center of the circular body that forms the hubcap to reinforce its geometry.

El diámetro interior de las embocaduras de los manguitos presenta una dimensión prácticamente idéntica a la del diámetro de la cabeza de los tornillos que sujetan la llanta. De esta forma es posible realizar un posicionado del tapacubos con la Ilanta, con cierto grado de apriete, al introducir las cabezas de los tornillos en las embocaduras de los manguitos.The inside diameter of the mouths of the sleeves have a dimension almost identical to that of head diameter of the screws that hold the tire. From this way it is possible to position the hubcap with the Ilanta, with some degree of tightening, when introducing the heads of the screws in the mouths of the sleeves.

Evidentemente, dada la naturaleza de la unión entre el manguito y la cabeza del tornillo, dicha unión establece un centraje e inmovilización del tapacubos frente al giro respecto a la llanta.Obviously, given the nature of the union between the sleeve and the screw head, said joint establishes a centering and immobilization of the hubcap against rotation in relation to rim.

La especificidad de cada tapacubos a un modelo determinado de vehículo, el montaje del tapacubos a un determinado modelo de vehículo, por lo que se reduce el riesgo de hurto al no ser compatible con otros modelos de vehículo.The specificity of each hubcap to a model certain vehicle, mounting the hubcap to a certain vehicle model, so the risk of theft is reduced by not Be compatible with other vehicle models.

Breve descripción de los diseñosBrief description of the designs

Para complementar la descripción que se está realizando y con objeto de facilitar la comprensión de las características de la invención, se acompaña a la presente memoria descriptiva un juego de dibujos en los que, con carácter ilustrativo y no limitativo, se ha representado lo siguiente:To complement the description that is being performing and in order to facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention, is attached herein descriptive a set of drawings in which, for illustrative purposes and not limiting, the following has been represented:
