Abstract

PURPOSE:To mark a distinct improvement in cooling functions and the stability of car drivability, by forming a lot of air holes on a wheel face and plural cooling fins on the backside of a wheel respectively, while making up them so as to exhaust the air inside the wheel out of these air holes along with the rotation of the wheel. CONSTITUTION:Each of air holes 2 consisting of a plural slits 21 and semicircular holes 22 interconnected to these slits 21 and formed in and around a rim 3 is formed on a wheel face 1, while at the backside of the wheel face 1, each of fins 11 is radially installed in spots projectingly ranging from a central fixed part 4 to the wheel face 1, and successively each of wedge-type fins 12 is installed in rows. With this method, a bulged part due to these slits 21 are formed alternately there around whereby the air inside the wheel is stirred up and discharged out of these slits 21. With this constitution as aforesaid, not only cooling functions are made better than ever before but also the stability of car drivability can be improved.

を冷却している。As is well known, tires are attached to wheels to form the wheels of an automobile, and brake discs and brake drums are generally housed within these wheels. As shown in FIG. 1, the conventional wheel has a plurality of through holes 2, 2 formed in the wheel face 1.
K to allow outside air to flow (intake) into the wheel from
This cools the brake discs (not shown) inside the wheels.

を極めて不安定にしてい芯。By the way, in recent years, as the performance of automobiles has improved, wheels have also become lighter, and aluminum wheels have been frequently used in so-called sports cars. These aluminum wheels, such as spoke type and mesh type, are usually manufactured with a focus on aesthetic design on the wheel's appearance.As a result, the amount of air flowing into the wheel (intake) is small, as mentioned above.
The so-called brake burnout is likely to occur due to insufficient cooling of the brake system. In addition, the surface of the wheel face has quite a bit of unevenness, so when the wheel rotates, air is drawn into the lower part of the car body, causing a so-called lift phenomenon that causes the car body to float, especially when driving at high speeds, making maneuverability extremely unstable. The core.

本発明は上記事情に鑑みてなされたもので、前述したよ

図及び第３図に示す実施例図に基づいて説明する。In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has a plurality of through holes formed in the wheel face and a plurality of cooling fins protruding from the rear surface of the wheel. To provide an automobile wheel in which air inside the wheel is discharged (outtaked) from the through hole. The present invention will be described below in a second manner.
Description will be made based on the embodiment diagrams shown in FIGS.

本発明のホイールは、第１図の従来例同様に、ホイール

るとよい。The wheel of the present invention has a plurality of through holes 2.2 formed in the wheel face 1, similar to the conventional example shown in FIG. However, in the case of the present invention, the air intake is different from the conventional air intake.
Since it is forcibly taken out, preferably, as in the embodiment, the slits 21, . 21 and a semicircular hole 22 formed near the rim 3 and communicating with the slit.

ホイール裏面部には、以下に説明する冷却フィンが形成
される。Cooling fins, which will be described below, are formed on the back surface of the wheel.

ホイールフェイスｌの裏面部において、ホイール中央の

ウトテークが促進されることになる。On the back side of the wheel face l, a fin 1 is installed at a location extending from the fixed part 4 at the center of the wheel to the wheel face 1.
1.11 are installed in a radial manner. This fin 11. IIK
Subsequently, wedge-shaped fins 12.degree. 12 are arranged in rows and arranged radially. The back of the wheel face in this position is
The bulging portions in which the wedge-shaped fins 12, 12 are provided and the trough portions in which the slits 21 are formed are alternately formed. When formed in this way, not only the fins 12.12 but also the bulging portions of the fins 12.12 can stir the air inside the wheel, and since the slits 21 are located in the valleys, the slits 21 are located in the valleys. The presence of the slit 21 promotes air outtake from the slit 21.

また、リム３の裏面部に略等間隔でフィン１３゜１３を

斜面部の裏面にも、楔形フィン１４゜１４を突設した。Furthermore, fins 13.degree. 13 are formed on the back surface of the rim 3 at approximately equal intervals, and wedge-shaped fins 14.degree.

これらのフィン１３．１４によって惹起される空気流は
、矢印にて示すように、専ら半円孔２２．２２から排出
されることになる。The airflow caused by these fins 13.14 will exit exclusively through semicircular holes 22.22, as indicated by the arrows.

なお、上記実施例ではホイール裏面部の略全体にフィン

よいことはもちろんである。In the above embodiment, the fins 11, 12, 13, 14 were formed on almost the entire rear surface of the wheel, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the fins may be provided protrudingly on a part of the wheel. Of course.

なお、本発明において、フィンをホイールとは別体に形
成してもよい。Note that in the present invention, the fins may be formed separately from the wheel.

ことができる。As explained above, the automobile wheel of the present invention has a plurality of cooling fins protruding from the rear surface of the wheel, so that when the wheel rotates, the air inside the wheel is stirred and forcibly discharged from the wheel hole. The cooling effect on the brakes is significantly increased. Furthermore, since this cooling effect is achieved by the cooling line on the back of the wheel, the wheel face can be formed into a so-called dish type, and along with the forced air outtake from the wheel holes mentioned above, negative pressure is applied to the wheel area. This provides so-called downforce to the vehicle body and improves steering stability. As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to obtain an automobile wheel with improved cooling function and improved steering stability.
