Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、装輪式建設車両のタイヤに係り、特に、リムの外周方向に多数個配設されるラグセグメントの取付け方向が右タイヤと左タイヤを交換するときに、リムに取付け孔を追加工をすることなく左右タイヤの取付け方向を容易に変更するようにしたラグセグメントを備えたタイヤに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来のラグセグメントを備えたタイヤについて、図19乃至図25により説明する。図19に示すように、リム15の外周方向にラグセグメント21が多数個ボルト20Aにより取付けている。図示しない駆動装置にリム15を取付けるために、リム15の取付け孔15aは円周上に10ケ所設けている。
図19のX視図の図20は、シングルタイヤを示しており、V型のラグセグメント21が所定の間隔でボルト20Aによりリム15に取付けている。図21はダブルタイヤの例を示しており、リム15に対して2列の内側と外側のラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチを同一としている。
【0003】
図20に示す、1つのリム15にV型のラグセグメントを取付けて左タイヤとして用いて、この左タイヤを右タイヤとして用いるために反転するとラグセグメント21が逆V型となり使用できない。
このため、従来はシングルタイヤの場合は左右タイヤ用として2種類のリムを準備している。
【0004】
また、図22(a)に示すように、V型のラグセグメント21の取付け孔M1 〜Q4 がリム15に明けられている。図22(a)に示す状態にV型のラグセグメント21を取付けるときに用いる取付け孔はM1,M2,M3,M4 である。図示しない隣り合うラグセグメントの取付け孔はQ1,Q2,Q3,Q4 である。
図23(a),図23(b)はラグセグメント21を備えた左側タイヤを示している。この左側タイヤを反転して右側タイヤに用いるときは、図22(b)に示すように、ラグセグメント21を逆V型の状態にして取付け孔N1,Q2,Q3,N2 を用いて取付けて、その後反転すれば図24(a),図24(b)のV型のラグセグメントと同じ向きにすることはできる。
【0005】
ところで、図21に示すダブルタイヤとして使用する場合は、内側と外側のラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチが同一となり、タイヤからの振動および騒音が大きいとの問題を抱えているのが実情である。
このため、ダブルタイヤとして使用する場合は4種類のリムを準備している。
【0006】
さらに、ラグセグメントを備えたタイヤを装着した装輪式建設車両が凍結した道路等を走行する場合には、図25に示すように、リム15の外周方向に複列に取着されたラグセグメントを備えたタイヤ21,21の全体を覆うタイヤチェーン22Aを装着している。
このタイヤチェーン22Aは、一般車両のダブルタイヤに用いるものではなく、特に幅の広いタイヤチェーンを用意している。
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前述の如くリムを数種類準備することはコスト高となる。
また、V型のラグセグメントを左右タイヤに取付けるためには、図22(a),図22(b)に示すように、左側タイヤとして用いるときには使用しないで、右側タイヤとして用いるときに使用する取付け孔N1,N2,P1,P2 をリムに追加工しておく必要があり製作工数大である。
【0008】
また、図19に示すように、従来のリム15の取付け孔15aは円周上に10ケ所設けており、隣り合う取付け孔15a,15aの角度θ3 は36°である。
ラグセグメント21は円周上に22個設けており、ラグセグメント21の1ケの取付け角度は360°/22=16.36°である。
この取付け孔15a,15aの角度θ3 (36°)の範囲内に装着できるラグセグメント21の数は、36°/16.36°=2.2個である。
したがって、本発明の図4に示すように、シングルタイヤを2個使用してダブルタイヤとして装着する場合、ダブルタイヤの内側のラグセグメント21に対して、外側のラグセグメント21を1/2ピッチずらすことができない。
前述の如くダブルタイヤの場合は、タイヤからの振動および騒音を低減するために、内側と外側のラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチを1/2ずらす必要がある。
【0009】
また、装輪式建設車両が凍結した道路等を走行するときにタイヤチェーンを装着する場合、前述のように、複列のラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの全体を覆う幅の広いタイヤチェーンを特別に準備する必要があり、コストも高くなる。
さらに、車体の外側端部とタイヤとの隙間が狭い場合は、タイヤチェーンが車体に接触するという問題がある。
【0010】
本発明は、上記従来技術の問題点に着目し、ラグセグメントの取付け孔を改良して同一のリムでも左側から右側(あるいは右側から左側)にタイヤを交換可能とすると共に、シングルタイヤ用リム2個をダブルタイヤとして用いる場合は内側と外側のラグセグメントの取付けピッチを1/2にずらしてタイヤの振動、騒音を防止できるとともに、一般車両のタイヤに用いるタイヤチェーンを、ラグセグメントを備えたタイヤに装着可能で、走行時に車体とタイヤチェーンが干渉する恐れのないラグセグメントを備えたタイヤを提供することを目的とする。
【0011】
【課題を解決するための手段、作用及び効果】
上記目的を達成するため、本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第1発明は、リムの外周方向に多数個隣接して取付けられるラグセグメントを備えたタイヤにおいて、リムの外周方向に沿ってリムの幅方向中心を通る直線を対称軸として、互いに線対称になるように設けられた2つの取付け孔と、前記リムの幅方向中心を通る直線上に前記2つの取付け孔とともにV字型を描くように設けられた1つの取付け孔とを有する取付け孔群を、リムの外周方向に沿って取付けピッチで複数配置し、前記2つの取付け孔と1つの取付け孔とがなすV字型の頂角が、前記2つの取付け孔とこれに隣接する取付け孔群に属する1つの取付け孔とがなすV字型の頂角に等しくなるように、前記取付けピッチを定めている。
【0012】
また第2発明は、リムの外周方向に多数個隣接して取付けられるラグセグメントを備えたタイヤにおいて、リムの外周方向に沿ってリムの幅方向中心を通る直線を対称軸として、互いに線対称になるように設けられた2つの取付け孔と、前記2つの取付け孔を結ぶ直線から外周方向に離れ、2つの取付け孔よりも狭い間隔で、前記リムの幅方向中心を通る直線を対称軸として互いに線対称になるように設けられた複数の取付け孔とを有する取付け孔群を、リムの外周方向に沿って取付けピッチで複数配置し、前記2つの取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して一側に配置された方の取付け孔と前記複数の取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して一側に配置された方の取付け孔とを結んだ直線と、前記2つの取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して他側に配置された方の取付け孔と前記複数の取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して他側に配置された方の取付け孔とを結んだ直線とがなす角が、前記2つの取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して一側に配置された方の取付け孔とこれに隣接する取付け孔群に属する前記複数の取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して一側に配置された方の取付け孔とを結んだ直線と、前記2つの取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して他側に配置された方の取付け孔と、これに隣接する取付け孔群に属する前記複数の取付け孔のうち前記幅方向中心を通る直線に対して他側に配置された方の取付け孔とを結んだ直線とがなす角に等しくなるように、前記取付けピッチを定めている。
【0013】
また第3発明は、リムの外周方向に多数個隣接して取付けられるラグセグメントを備えたタイヤにおいて、リムの外周方向に沿ってリムの幅方向中心を通る直線上に設けられた1つの取付け孔と、前記1つの取付け孔を対称の中心として互いに点対称となるように設けられた2つの取付け孔とを有する取付け孔群をリムの外周方向に沿って取付けピッチで複数配置し、前記取付け孔群を通る直線がリムの幅方向に対してなす角が、前記取付け孔群に属する2つの取付け孔のうちの1つとこれに隣接する取付け孔群に属する1つの取付け孔とを結ぶ直線がリムの幅方向に対してなす角に等しくなるように、前記取付けピッチを定めている。
【0014】
また第4発明は、リムの外周方向に多数個隣接して取付けられるラグセグメントを備えたタイヤにおいて、リムの幅方向に対して所定の角度をなす直線上に同一間隔で設けられた複数の取付け孔を有する取付け孔群を、リムの外周方向に沿って取付けピッチで複数配置し、前記取付け孔群の最も端側の取付け孔とこれに隣接する取付け孔群の端側から2番目の取付け孔とを結んだ直線がリムの幅方向に対してなす角が、前記取付け孔群が形成する直線がリムの幅方向に対してなす角に等しくなるように、前記取付けピッチを定めている。
【0019】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に、本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの一実施例について図1乃至図18により説明する。尚、図19乃至図25と同一符号を付したものは同一である。
先ず、図1に示す装輪式建設車両5は、タイヤ20を回転自在に配設する下部走行体1、運転室3を載置する上部旋回体2およびブーム、アームおよびバケットからなる作業機4を装備している。
図2に示すように、油圧モータ等の駆動装置10にリム15,15を連結している。このリム15,15には、ゴム等の弾性体で形成されるラグセクセメント21,21がボルト20A,20Aで固着されている。
図2はダブルタイヤの構造を示しているが、シングルタイヤであっても良い。
また、図2に示す、ダブルタイヤは、シングルタイヤ用のリム15,15を2個連結するようにしてあり、シングルタイヤ用のリムとしても用いることができる。
次に、図2のZ視図の図3,図3のY視図の図4,図4のA−A断面図の図5について説明する。
駆動装置10はリム15を回転自在に連結している。リム15の外周に多数のV型に形成されたラグセグメント21,21が所定の間隔で配置され、ボルト20Aで固着されている。ラグセグメント21の取付けボルト20Aは図では4本であるが、ボルト本数はリムの大きさ等により適宜増減されるものである。
図3,図5に示すように、ラグセグメント21は中空部21bを設けている。この中空部21bを略U字形状、あるいは、略コ字形状にする突起部21cを設けている。
ダブルタイヤの内側と外側のラグセグメント21,21を1/2ピッチずらす構成は後述するが、図4に示すように外側のラグセグメント21の1ピッチP1 に対して、内側のラグセグメント21は1/2ピッチP2 ずらしてある。
このように、外側に対して内側(あるいは内側に対して外側)のラグセグメントを1/2ピッチずらすことにより、走行時のタイヤの振動、騒音を低減することができる。
また、本発明の実施例では、ラグセグメントにボルトを固着しておいて、このボルトに対向するリムに取付け孔を設ける。
このラグセグメントに固着するボルトをリムの取付け孔に挿入して締着するようにしても良い。
また、ラグセグメントに取付け孔を設けると共に、このラグセグメントの取付け孔に対向するリムに取付け孔を設ける。
このラグセグメントの取付け孔とリムの取付け孔とを位置決めしてボルトを挿入して締着するようにしても良い。
【0020】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第1実施例を図6(a),図6(b)により説明する。V型のラグセグメント21およびリム15には、それぞれ取付け孔A1〜A3がリム15に明けられている。図6(a)に示すように、リム15の幅はWである。V型のラグセグメント21の取付け孔(A1〜A3,またはB1〜B3,C1〜C3……)を3箇所とし、その取付け孔間隔A,ラグセグメント21の取付けピッチをB,ラグセグメント21のV字の角度θとしたときに、
B=2Atanα(但し、α=(π−θ)/2,2A<W)
これによりラグセグメント21の取付けピッチBが設定される。このように、V型のラグセグメント21の取付け孔(A1〜A3,……)を設定することにより、ラグセグメント21を図6(b)の逆V型の状態にして取付け孔A1,B2,A3を用いて取付けることができる。したがって、従来の図22(a),図22(b)で説明したラグセグメント21を逆V型の状態にして取付けるときに、新たに取付け孔を追加工すること無しに左側タイヤ用リムと右側タイヤ用リムを共通化できる。
【0021】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第2実施例を図7(a),図7(b)により説明する。図7(a),図7(b)は、V型のラグセグメント21の取付け孔(D1〜D4,またはE1〜E4)を4箇所とした場合でも、前記図6(a),図6(b)と同様の関係が成り立つ。図7(a)に示すように、リム15の幅はW,Cは任意に設定する。V型のラグセグメント21の取付け孔(D1〜D4,またはE1〜E4)を4箇所とし、その取付け孔D1-D2,D3-D4間隔A,ラグセグメント21の取付けピッチをB,ラグセグメント21のV字の角度θとしたときに、
B=2Atanα(但し、α=(π−θ)/2,2(A+C)<W)
これによりラグセグメント21の取付けピッチBが設定される。このように、V型のラグセグメント21の取付け孔(D1〜D4,……)を設定することにより、ラグセグメント21を図6(b)の逆V型の状態にして取付け孔D1,E2,E3,D4を用いて取付けることができる。したがって、従来の図22(a),図22(b)で説明したラグセグメント21を逆V型の状態にして取付けるときに、新たに取付け孔を追加工すること無しに左側タイヤ用リムと右側タイヤ用リムを共通化できる。また、ラグセグメント21の取付け孔を2個,5個,6個……とした場合でも前記図6(a),図6(b)と同様の関係が成り立つことは言うまでもない。
【0022】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第3実施例を図8(a),図8(b)により説明する。ストレート形状のラグセグメント21Aの取付け孔(F1 〜F3,またはG1 〜G3,H1 〜H3 )を3箇所とした場合でも、前記図6(a),図6(b)と同様の関係が成り立つ。
図8(a)に示すように、リム15の幅はWである。ストレート形状のラグセグメント21Aの取付け孔(F1 〜F3 …)を3箇所とし、その取付け孔F1-F2,F2-F3 の間隔A,ラグセグメント21Aの取付けピッチをBとしたときに、
B=2Atanα
(但し、2A<W)
これによりラグセグメント21Aの取付けピッチBが設定される。
このように、ストレート形状のラグセグメント21Aの取付け孔(F1 〜F3 …)を設定することにより、ラグセグメント21Aを図8(b)の左下がりの状態にして取付け孔H1,G2,F3 を用いて取付けることができる。
したがって、ラグセグメントを逆向きのストレート型の状態にして取付けるときに、新たに取付け孔を追加工すること無しに左側タイヤ用リムと右側タイヤ用リムを共通化できる。
【0023】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第4実施例を図9(a),図9(b)により説明する。ストレート形状のラグセグメント21Bの取付け孔(I1 〜I4,またはJ1 〜J4,K1 〜K4,L1 )を4箇所とした場合でも、前記図6(a),図6(b)と同様の関係が成り立つ。
図9(a)に示すように、リム15の幅はWである。ストレート形状のラグセグメント21Bの取付け孔(I1 〜I4 …)を4箇所とし、その取付け孔I1-I2,I2-I3,I4 の間隔A,ラグセグメント21Bの取付けピッチをBとしたときに、
B=2Atanα
(但し、3A<W)
これによりラグセグメント21Bの取付けピッチBが設定される。
このように、ストレート形状のラグセグメント21Bの取付け孔(I1 〜I4 …)を設定することにより、ラグセグメント21Bを図9(b)の左下がりの状態にして取付け孔L1,K2,J3,I4 を用いて取付けることができる。
したがって、ラグセグメントを逆向きのストレート型の状態にして取付けるときに、新たに取付け孔を追加工すること無しに左側タイヤ用リムと右側タイヤ用リムを共通化できる。
また、ラグセグメント21の取付け孔を2個,5個,6個……とした場合でも前記図6(a),図6(b)と同様の関係が成り立つことは言うまでもない。
【0024】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第5実施例を図1乃至図4を参照して、図10,表1により説明する。
【0025】
【表1】

Figure 0003846818
【0026】
第5実施例は、前述の図19に示す従来のリム15の取付け孔15aが10ケ所では、図4に示す内側と外側のラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチを1/2ずらすことはできないので、タイヤからの振動、騒音を低減することができないとの問題点を改良するものである。
図10に示すように、リム15に設けられた取付け孔20Bを用いて図示しないボルトにより油圧モータ等の駆動装置10に取着している。このリム15の円周上に複数のラグセグメント21がボルト20Aにより締着している。
本実施例の要旨とするところは、図10に示す油圧モータ等の駆動装置10と、リム15とを取付けるために用いる図示しないボルトの取付け孔20Bの数と、リム15の円周上に取付けるラグセグメント21の数との関係を下記式により求めるようにしたものである。
ここで、nは自然数、bは取付け孔20Bの数、Sはラグセググセントの数としたときに、
S=(2n−1)×b/2
この式により決定されるラグセグメントの数Sは、表1に示すように、例えば、取付け孔20Bの数bが10のときは、ラグセグメントの数Sを5または15,25,35,45のうちのいずれかを選択すれば良い。
図10に示すように、取付け孔20Bの数bが10のときには、取付け孔20Bの2ピッチ(1ピッチ=P1 )の間に奇数個のラグセグメント21を配置すれば良いことになる。図10では5個のラグセグメント21を配置した例である。これにより、シングルタイヤを2個使用して、ダブルタイヤとして装着する場合、内側タイヤと外側タイヤのラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチを1/2ずらすことができる。
【0027】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第6実施例を図1乃至図4を参照して、図11により説明する。
前述の図19に示す従来のリム15の取付け孔15aが10ケ所では、図4に示す内側と外側のラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチを1/2ずらすことはできないので、タイヤからの振動、騒音を低減することができないとの問題点を改良するものである。
図11に示すように、リム15に設けられた取付け孔20Bを用いて図示しないボルトにより油圧モータ等の駆動装置10に取着している。このリム15の円周上に複数のラグセグメント21がボルト20Aにより締着している。
本実施例の要旨とするところは、図11に示す油圧モータ等の駆動装置10と、リム15とを取付けるために用いる図示しないボルトの取付け孔20Bの基準点Aに対して、ラグセグメント21が1/2ピッチずれるようにした取付け孔20Bの基準点Bを配置するようにしたものである。
図11に示す状態は、取付け孔20Bの取付けピッチP1 に対して基準点Aから基準点Bまでは5ピッチとしてあり、その5ピッチ間にラグセグメント21が5.5個リム15に配設されるようにしてある。
これにより、シングルタイヤを2個使用して、ダブルタイヤとして装着する場合、内側タイヤと外側タイヤのラグセグメント21,21の取付けピッチを1/2ずらすことができる。
なお、前記取付け孔20Bの基準点Aと基準点Bとは、タイヤの組立てし易さを考慮して適宜位置を変更、あるいは、複数箇所設けるようにしても良い。
すなわち、前記取付け孔20Bの取付けピッチP1 に対して基準点Aから基準点Bまでは図10に示す5ピッチでなくても良く、例えば前記取付け孔20Bの基準点Aから基準点Bまでを3ピッチとした場合は、その3ピッチ間にラグセグメント21の個数が2.5,3.5,4.5……と1/2個ずれるようにすれば良い。
【0028】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第7実施例を図12および図13により説明する。なお、図12は正面図であり、側面図は図3と同一であり、図13は図3のY矢視図である。
リム15Aは駆動装置10に回転自在に連結している。リム15Aの幅W1は図6に示したリム15の幅Wに比して十分に広く、ラグセグメント21を2列に配置できるだけの幅を有している。すなわち、リム15Aの外周方向にはV形状のラグセグメント21が内側と外側の2列にボルト20Aで締着され、ダブルタイヤ20を構成している。
ダブルタイヤ20の外側と内側のラグセグメント21,21は、図13に示すように外側のラグセグメント21の1ピッチP1に対して、内側のラグセグメント21は1/2ピッチずらすことにより、走行時のタイヤの振動、騒音を低減することができる。
【0029】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第8実施例を図14により説明する。
幅の広いリム15Aの外周部には幅方向に2列にV形状のラグセグメント21,21が相互に1/2ピッチずらして、ラグセグメント取付けボルト20Aにより締着されている。すなわち、図12で説明した第7実施例と同様に1個のリム15Aでダブルタイヤを構成している。
車体の最外側に配置された所定幅Tのラグセグメント21と、その内側に隣接して配置されたラグセグメント21との間には所定隙間Sが設けられている。
ラグセグメント21の幅Tは、一般車両のタイヤに用いられるタイヤチェーンに適合する幅に設定されており、隙間Sはタイヤチェーンの端部を挿入可能な寸法に設定されている。
【0030】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第9実施例を図15,図16により説明する。図15は正面図であり、図16は側面図である。
幅が広く、両端部にフランジ部15C,15Cを有するリム15Bの外周には幅方向に2列にストレート形状のラグセグメント21C,21Cが相互に1/2ピッチずらして、それぞれ2本のラグセグメント取付けボルト20Aにより締着されている。車体の最外側に配置された所定幅Tのラグセグメント21Cと、その内側に隣接して配置されたラグセグメント21Cとの間には所定隙間Sが設けられている。
凍結した道路等を走行する場合には、図に示すように車体の最外側に配置されたラグセグメント21Cにタイヤチェーン22を装着する。前述のようにラグセグメント21Cの幅Tは、一般車両のタイヤに用いられるタイヤチェーン22に適合する幅に設定されており、隙間Sはタイヤチェーン22の端部を挿入可能な寸法に設定されている。
これにより、一般車両のタイヤ用のタイヤチェーン22を装着することが可能であり、ラグセグメント21Cを備えたタイヤ用として特別なタイヤチェーンを製作する必要がないので、コストが安価である。
また、外側ラグセグメント21Cに、タイヤチェーンを係止することにより、走行時に車体とタイヤチェーンが干渉する恐れがない。
【0031】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第10実施例を図17により説明する。
リム15Bの外周には車体の最外側に幅Tのラグセグメント21が配置され、その内側には隙間Sを設けて幅T1のラグセグメント21Dが配置されている。この場合、T1>Tである。
最外側のラグセグメント21には、図15で説明した一般車両タイヤに用いられるタイヤチェーン22が装着可能である。
【0032】
本発明に係るラグセグメントを備えたタイヤの第11実施例を図18により説明する。
リム15Bの外周には車体の最外側に幅Tのラグセグメント21が配置され、その内側には隙間Sを設けて幅T2のラグセグメント21Eが配置され、さらにその内側には隣接して幅T3のラグセグメント21Fが配置されている。すなわち、ラクセグメントを3列に配置したものである。
最外側のラグセグメント21には、図15で説明した一般車両タイヤに用いられるタイヤチェーン22が装着可能である。
【0033】
図14乃至図18で説明したラグセグメントを備えたタイヤは、ラグセグメントの幅を最外側のラグセグメント21の幅Tを、一般車両タイヤに用いられるタイヤチェーン22に適合させ、隣接するラグセグメントとの隙間Sを、タイヤチェーン22の端部が挿入可能な寸法となるようにすれば良い。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a tire of a wheeled construction vehicle, and particularly, when a mounting direction of a plurality of lug segments arranged in the outer peripheral direction of the rim is replaced with a right tire and a left tire, a mounting hole is added to the rim. The present invention relates to a tire provided with lug segments that can easily change the mounting direction of the left and right tires without any work.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A tire equipped with a conventional lug segment will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 19, a number of lug segments 21 are attached to the outer periphery of the rim 15 by bolts 20A. In order to attach the rim 15 to a drive device (not shown), ten attachment holes 15a of the rim 15 are provided on the circumference.
FIG. 20 of the X view of FIG. 19 shows a single tire, and V-shaped lug segments 21 are attached to the rim 15 by bolts 20A at a predetermined interval. FIG. 21 shows an example of a double tire, and the mounting pitches of the inner and outer lug segments 21 and 21 in the two rows with respect to the rim 15 are the same.
[0003]
When a V-shaped lug segment is attached to one rim 15 shown in FIG. 20 and used as a left tire, and the left tire is reversed to be used as a right tire, the lug segment 21 becomes an inverted V-shape and cannot be used.
For this reason, conventionally, in the case of a single tire, two types of rims are prepared for left and right tires.
[0004]
Further, as shown in FIG. 22A, mounting holes M 1 to Q 4 of the V-shaped lug segment 21 are opened in the rim 15. The mounting holes used when attaching the V-shaped lug segment 21 to the state shown in FIG. 22A are M1, M2, M3, and M4. The mounting holes of adjacent lug segments (not shown) are Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4.
FIG. 23A and FIG. 23B show the left tire provided with the lug segment 21. When the left tire is reversed and used for the right tire, as shown in FIG. 22 (b), the lug segment 21 is attached in the inverted V shape using the mounting holes N1, Q2, Q3, N2, If it is then reversed, it can be oriented in the same direction as the V-shaped lug segment of FIGS. 24 (a) and 24 (b).
[0005]
By the way, when used as a double tire shown in FIG. 21, the actual situation is that the mounting pitches of the inner and outer lug segments 21 and 21 are the same, and the vibration and noise from the tire are large. .
For this reason, when using as a double tire, four types of rims are prepared.
[0006]
Furthermore, when a wheeled construction vehicle equipped with tires equipped with lug segments travels on a frozen road or the like, as shown in FIG. 25, the lug segments attached in double rows in the outer peripheral direction of the rim 15 A tire chain 22 </ b> A that covers the entire tires 21, 21 equipped with the tire is mounted.
The tire chain 22A is not used for a double tire of a general vehicle, and a particularly wide tire chain is prepared.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, it is expensive to prepare several types of rims as described above.
Also, in order to attach the V-shaped lug segment to the left and right tires, as shown in FIGS. 22 (a) and 22 (b), it is not used when used as the left tire, but is used when used as the right tire. The holes N1, N2, P1, and P2 need to be additionally machined in the rim, and the number of manufacturing steps is large.
[0008]
Further, as shown in FIG. 19, the mounting holes 15a of the conventional rim 15 are provided at 10 locations on the circumference, and the angle θ3 between the adjacent mounting holes 15a and 15a is 36 °.
Twenty-two lug segments 21 are provided on the circumference, and one attachment angle of the lug segment 21 is 360 ° / 22 = 16.36 °.
The number of lug segments 21 that can be mounted within the range of the angle θ3 (36 °) of the mounting holes 15a, 15a is 36 ° / 16.36 ° = 2.2.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4 of the present invention, when two single tires are used and mounted as a double tire, the outer lug segment 21 is shifted by 1/2 pitch with respect to the inner lug segment 21 of the double tire. I can't.
As described above, in the case of a double tire, in order to reduce vibration and noise from the tire, it is necessary to shift the mounting pitch of the inner and outer lug segments 21 and 21 by 1/2.
[0009]
In addition, when attaching a tire chain when a wheeled construction vehicle travels on a frozen road or the like, as described above, a wide tire chain that covers the entire tire with double-row lug segments is specially used. It is necessary to prepare and the cost is high.
Furthermore, when the gap between the outer end of the vehicle body and the tire is narrow, there is a problem that the tire chain contacts the vehicle body.
[0010]
The present invention pays attention to the above-mentioned problems of the prior art and improves the lug segment mounting holes so that the tire can be exchanged from the left side to the right side (or from the right side to the left side) even with the same rim. When using a single tire as a double tire, it is possible to prevent the vibration and noise of the tire by shifting the mounting pitch of the inner and outer lug segments to 1/2, and the tire chain used for the tire of a general vehicle is equipped with the lug segment. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tire including a lug segment that can be attached to the vehicle and does not interfere with the vehicle body and the tire chain during traveling.
