Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a non-slip fixture to be wound over or embedded in a tire by molding products such as ropes, cords, or woven fabric which are formed out of wear resistant fibers by either independent action or combined action of interweaving, combining, bonding or binding and embedding into molded synthetic resin or rubber. CONSTITUTION:Ropes 1 formed out of twisted and interwoven fibers are formed into a net shape, and those such as cross sections 2, straight line sections 3 and peripheral sections 4 are provided. The fibers 1 shall be either one of natural fibers, synthetic fibers, metallic fibers, glass fibers, carbon fibers or non- organic fibers, or shall be an combination of these fibers. The fibers are formed into a thread with their single fiber twisted, and the thread is then binded, interwoven and woven into a rope, a cord and woven fabric so as to be formed into a net shape. The fibers shall be used, which are sufficiently wear resistant against snow laying on a road or an icebound road. When high wear resistance is required in particular, alamide fibers, vynilon fibers, polyester fibers, carbon fibers, ceramic fibers or whiskers shall be used.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention comprises a wear-resistant fiber which is attached to a tire of a vehicle to prevent the vehicle from slipping when traveling on a snowy road or an icy road. It is about non-slip.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional non-slip slips to be mounted on automobile tires are classified into metallic ones and non-metallic ones. The metal ones consist of metal chains and cables. Non-metal ones are
It is molded from synthetic rubber or synthetic resin.

[0003]

The conventional metal slip stopper has the following drawbacks. (A) The strength is weak and there is no durability. (B) The riding comfort is not good. (C) The anti-slip effect is directional. (D) There is noise. (E) Easy to rust. (F) It is heavy and has poor storability. (G) It is difficult to attach to the tire. (H) Anti-slip is easy to slip off while running. The conventional non-metal slip stopper has the following drawbacks. (A) The anti-slip effect is weak. (B) The effect on the frozen road is weak. (C) The lower the temperature, the harder it becomes, and the weaker the anti-slip effect becomes. (D) Depending on the material and molding method,
It has low strength and no durability. (E) Since it is molded and made three-dimensionally, it is difficult to store. (F) Since it is three-dimensionally molded, it is necessary to prepare many sizes of anti-skid according to the size of the tire. (G) The manufacturing method is complicated and the manufacturing cost is high. (H) Many irregularities and grooves cannot be provided on the surface of the anti-slip.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems] A rope, a string, or a woven fabric made of abrasion-resistant fibers is knitted, bonded, bonded, bound, or embedded in a synthetic resin or synthetic rubber molded product. Any one of them can be used alone or in combination and wound around an automobile tire or embedded in a tire to be used as a slip stopper for an automobile.

[0005]

When the fiber anti-slip of the present invention is attached to the tire of an automobile and runs on a snowy road, the fiber portion constantly contacts the snow surface.
Since the fiber portion contacts the snow surface, (a) since the rope, the string, and the fabric have a width and thickness, the rope, the string, and the fabric compact the snow, compressing resistance,
Snow column shearing force is generated, which prevents slipping. (B) Because the rope, the string, and the fabric itself are flexible,
When ropes, cords, and fabrics try to adhere to snowy roads and icy roads, they produce an adhesive frictional resistance force and prevent slipping. Rope and cord have almost no change in flexibility with temperature, and can generate high adhesive friction resistance even at low temperatures. (C) Rope, string, and woven fabric are bundles of many single fibers. When they come into contact with the snow surface, many fibers and grooves come into contact with the snow surface,
A high shear friction force is generated, which prevents slipping. (D) When ropes, cords, and textile fibers come into contact with the snow surface and pressure is applied, that portion melts and a water film forms. The space of ropes, strings, and fabrics absorbs this water film by capillarity and can forcibly remove the water film on the snow surface, and a large number of fibers and grooves repel water and produce a high anti-slip effect. Can be made. (E) If you use ropes, cords, and textile fibers that have high wear resistance, you can make them more durable than non-slip metal and non-metal slippers, and you can make the ropes and cords thinner, so that they are comfortable to ride in a car. Can be well. In addition, it can be deformed flat due to the weight of the automobile to increase the ground contact area and at the same time improve the riding comfort. Noise is reduced due to the use of fiber rope, cords and fabrics. (F) A rope, a cord, and a woven fabric are tied together to form a mesh pattern, and the density of the mesh is increased, whereby a high anti-slip effect can be produced. Further, by using a pattern in which the meshes of the meshes are combined in various vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions, it is possible to produce a non-slip effect against vertical, horizontal, and diagonal slippage. (G) A rope, a string, or a woven fabric is tied to form a mesh pattern, and a knot, metal, synthetic rubber, or synthetic resin molded product is attached to the intersecting portion or the straight portion, so that a high anti-slip effect is produced. be able to. (H) Since it is made of rope, string, and fabric, it can be stored compactly and will not rust. (I) The durability can be improved by impregnating and curing the synthetic rubber or the synthetic resin in the whole or a part of the rope, the cord or the woven fabric. (Nu) If you embed ropes, strings, and fabrics in the tires,
It is possible to save the trouble of mounting the tire.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a plan view of a rope obtained by knitting abrasion-resistant fibers into a net. FIG. 2 is a perspective view when this is wound around an automobile tire and attached. (1) of FIG. 1 is a rope formed by knitting fibers, which is formed into a net, (2) is an intersection, (3) is a straight portion, and (4) is an edge portion. is there. The fiber (1) is made of any one of natural fibers, synthetic fibers, metal fibers, glass fibers, carbon fibers, and inorganic fibers, or a combination thereof. These single fibers are laid on each other to form a rope, a string, or a woven fabric by bundling, knitting, or weaving to form the net shape shown in FIG. This fiber should be used on snowy and icy roads, and should have sufficient abrasion resistance.
When high abrasion resistance is required, aramid fiber,
Vinylon fiber, polyester fiber, carbon fiber, ceramic fiber and whiskers are used. When tensile strength is required, the core material is reinforced by using a different kind from the fiber of (1). Further, in order to improve strength and wear resistance, synthetic rubber or synthetic resin may be impregnated and hardened or coated on all of the ropes, strings, or woven fabrics of the fibers or on the side in contact with the road. (2) is an intersection of what is formed like a net, and this intersection is a rope, a string,
Any one or a combination of a woven fabric and a knot, a metal fitting, a resin molded product, a fiber rope, a string, a bonded one, a knitted one, and a combined one. The edge portion of (4) may be of a different type from the intersection portion of (2) and the straight portion of (3). Either a stretchable string, rubber, or metal may be used to facilitate mounting on the tire. The edge (4) is either separated at both ends of the edge as shown in FIG. 1, is made easily connectable by a coupler, or is made continuous.
If the anti-slip slips when it is attached to the tire as shown in Fig. 2, either tighten the edge (4) so that it can be tightened, or use a different string on the edge (4). Join the elastic string, rubber, or metal in advance and use this to attach the edge (4)
Make a structure that can be tightened. Figure 1 is (1)
We make a mesh pattern by tying the ropes made of fiber of this company, but this pattern is changed according to the type of tire and the condition of the road. By creating a pattern in which the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions of the mesh are variously combined, it is possible to produce a non-slip effect against vertical, horizontal, and diagonal slippage. Further, the number of fibers per unit area, the density, the thickness, the yarn reliance, and the knitting method can be made different according to the type of tire and the road condition. As for the thickness of the ropes and cords made of fibers, the entire thickness in FIG. 1 is made the same, or the places where abrasion resistance is required more than other parts such as the peripheral part of the tire are made thicker than other parts. For the same type of rope and cord, use the same rope or cord as a whole or use different types of rope and cord. For the same reason, the mesh pattern may be the same pattern or a plurality of different patterns may be used. Instead of knitting the fibers, the fibers may be formed in a mat shape and the space portion of the pattern may be punched to prevent slipping. Figure 3
When one or a combination of synthetic rubber, synthetic resin, and metal solid (7) is bonded to the whole or a part of the fiber rope or the cord as shown in FIG. be able to. The same effect can be obtained by tying a knot at a portion that does not cross the string. Solid (7)
As for the surface of, the unevenness, the groove, or the metal spike is selected and attached if necessary. At this time, the fiber (1) is either exposed or not exposed on the surface. In FIG. 4, the abrasion-resistant fiber (1) is cut into a certain length and one end thereof is bound by a binding tool (8). The anti-slip shown in FIG. 4 is used by embedding it in the tire so that the fiber (1) portion comes out from the surface of the tire. The fiber (1) is a rope made of fiber, a bundle of strings cut, a bundle of single fibers or threads, a rope,
Take either the one with the ends of the string tied or the one with the loop. At this time, the fibers may be impregnated and cured with synthetic rubber or synthetic resin, or may be coated. Figure 4
Then, one end of the rope and the string is bundled with a tie,
Instead of using a tie, it may be tied with a string or fixed with a synthetic resin. The binding tool is made of metal or synthetic resin. FIG. 4 shows a tire (5) in which the abrasion-resistant fiber (1) is embedded in advance. The fibers are embedded in all or part of the tire surface. Instead of embedding, the fiber (1) may be previously kneaded into the tire (5) so that the fiber (1) is constantly exposed from the surface.

The present invention has the above-described structure, and when a tire equipped with the structure is used for running on a snowy road by an automobile, the fibers constantly come into contact with the road and the snowy surface, and the following effects are obtained. is there. (A) Since there are many fibers and the spaces between the fibers that constitute the non-slip, a large amount of snow and ice shear shearing force are generated, and the anti-slip effect is produced. (B) When the non-slip fibers are compressed by melting snow to become water, they are sucked up by the capillarity phenomenon in the space between the fibers and are repelled, thereby producing an anti-slip effect. (C) The anti-slip causes compression resistance and snow column shearing force, and the anti-slip effect occurs. Particularly on icy road surfaces, it produces an effect that is not possible with conventional anti-skid. (D) A large compression resistance and a snow column shearing force can be generated by forming a knot in the non-slip crossing portion, or by forming a knot, or by bonding a solid material of synthetic rubber, synthetic resin, or metal. (E) Depending on how to tie the anti-slip and the pattern, it is possible to produce an anti-slip effect against vertical, horizontal and diagonal slips. (F) Due to the use of abrasion-resistant fibers, it has durability equal to or higher than that of conventional non-slip metal or non-metal. (G) By impregnating fibers with synthetic rubber or synthetic resin and curing,
The strength and wear resistance can be improved by coating or the like. (H) It is possible to reduce the sound emitted when the road comes in contact with the slip stopper. (I) By attaching ropes and cords and using elastic cords at the edges and combining them with the shape of the tire, they can be easily attached to the tire. (Nu) The weight can be reduced and it can be stored compactly without rusting. (Le) A rope and a string are used to prevent slippage. By using elastic strings at the edges and combining them with the shape of the tire, friction will occur between the tire and the string slipstop, and the slippage will be prevented. Hard to slip. (E) Since the anti-slip structure is made of fibers, the lengths of ropes and cords can be adjusted and worn on the spot according to the tire size. Even if the slip stopper breaks, it can be easily repaired by tying it with a rope or string.
