Description

[0001] Non-Pneumatic Tire [0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a non-pneumatic tire, and more particularly, to an un-pneumatic tire which comprises an elliptical tube or an arc tube provided between inner and outer cylindrical members of a non- The present invention relates to a non-pneumatic tire which can be used in place of an air-pressure tire in an emergency by providing an engaging groove and engaging projections formed at other ends to engage with each other and having a load-bearing property similar to that of an air-pressure tire,

The wheels are made of a wheel, a rubber material or the like for mounting on a wheel shaft of a vehicle or the like, and a tire mounted on the wheel to constitute the outer portion of the wheel so as to mitigate the impact from the road surface. Conventional tires used in vehicles can be classified into radial tires, bias tires, solid tires, and the like depending on the structure.

Among them, radial tires, that is, pneumatic tires with air inside are generally used for automobiles and special purpose automobiles. However, such pneumatic tires are complicated in structure, the manufacturing process is very complicated, and there is a problem that the emission of harmful substances is high during manufacture, and the inconvenience of management that the air pressure, which is absolutely important for performance, must be checked from time to time, The air pressure is suddenly lowered, so that there is always a problem of stability in which a tire is broken and an accident is caused.

Accordingly, a non-pneumatic tire that does not use air pressure, i.e., an airless tire, is proposed as a new alternative. Unlike pneumatic tires, non-pneumatic tires are a process and structure tires that can greatly reduce the production cost by simplifying the material and the process, as well as significantly reduce the emission of harmful substances. Particularly, the non-pneumatic tire has a great advantage of being able to escape from problems that may be caused by a lack of air pressure and the like. The non-pneumatic tires are capable of preventing the standing wave from being generated in pneumatic tires and have the advantage of greatly improving the rolling resistance. Unlike pneumatic tires, non-pneumatic tires have a design method that does not use compressed air at all, thus eliminating the risk of accidents that may occur during travel due to air pressure loss or flat tires.

In general, most non-pneumatic tires absorb the impact from the road surface using the elasticity of the circular band and the web spokes, and support the load of the vehicle using a web spoke structure. If the vehicle suddenly stops while traveling at high speed, the tire may be severely crushed or warped due to inertia, resulting in a phenomenon such as a puncture of the tire, which may cause a safety accident such as overturning of the vehicle.

In addition, the pneumatic tire is able to maintain the original state of the pneumatic tire even when an external force is applied to the pneumatic tire by dispersing the external force thereof. On the other hand, in the case of the non-pneumatic tire, when an external force such as passing through an obstacle is received, Because I do it, I can keep the original prototype state unchanged and it can be done unilaterally. When the non-pneumatic tire can not maintain the shape of the circular shape and receives the external force and has a distorted non-circular shape, the running property is deteriorated as well as the speed is lowered and the fuel consumption is inevitably deteriorated. Therefore, the development of a non-pneumatic tire that improves the disadvantages of such a non-pneumatic tire is urgently required.

On the other hand, spare tires (aka spare tires), which are kept in the trunk of a vehicle until a puncture or a sudden tire accident occurs, must be lightweight for the fuel economy of the vehicle, occupy a small area in the trunk, Even if it is stored for a long period of time, the air should not escape, so that it can function as an auxiliary tire in an emergency.

However, since the auxiliary tires currently used in passenger cars are mostly pneumatic tires, there are restrictions on their use in view of the required characteristics of the auxiliary tires.

Therefore, it is urgent to develop a non-pneumatic tire that is less lighter than the pneumatic auxiliary tire and occupies less area, without fear of air leakage even when stored for a long time, and there is no fear of tire puncture due to dangerous materials on the road surface.

Accordingly, the present inventors have found that when an external force is applied to a non-pneumatic tire, it is possible to provide a non-pneumatic tire which is less lighter than a pneumatic auxiliary tire and has a problem of being distorted without being maintained in a circular state, As a result of an effort, the spoke member provided between the inner and outer cylindrical members of the tire is formed by contacting the circular tubes having the elliptical tube embedded therein as viewed from the center of the tire in the axial direction, one end of the tire tread is formed with a coupling groove, The non-pneumatic tire formed with the engagement protrusions to be engaged with the ends is prevented from being crushed or warped beyond a predetermined level when an external force is applied, and is free from air leakage even when stored for a long time, The present invention has been completed .

An object of the present invention is to provide a non-pneumatic tire capable of preventing a safety accident such as an overturning accident while driving by preventing a tire from being crushed or bent to a certain level or higher even if the tire is crushed or warped according to the bending or self- have.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a non-pneumatic tire which is free from the risk of air leakage even when stored for a long period of time, is free from the risk of tire puncture due to dangerous materials on the road surface, and is lighter than the pneumatic auxiliary tire and occupies less area.

In order to attain the above object, the present invention provides an automotive vehicle comprising an outer cylindrical member having a tire tread portion, an inner cylindrical member connected to a wheel axis of the vehicle, And a plurality of spoke members provided to connect between the cylindrical members (20), wherein the inner and outer cylindrical members (10, 20) have a certain width in the axial direction, Pneumatic tire (100) supporting a grounding load only by members, wherein the spoke member provided between the inner and outer cylindrical members (10, 20) comprises an elliptical tube (42) or an arcuate tube (40-1) having a built-in pipe (42-1) are formed in contact with each other.

The non-pneumatic tire according to the present invention can prevent the tire from being crushed or bent to a certain level or higher even if the tire is crushed or warped according to the bending or self-load of the road surface, thereby preventing a safety accident such as a rollover during traveling.

In addition, there is no fear of air leakage even when stored for a long time, there is no fear of tire puncture due to dangerous materials on the road surface, and it is lighter than the pneumatic auxiliary tire and occupies less area.
