Description

Technical Field [0001] The present invention relates to an automatic spray system for a vehicle wheel,

The present invention relates to an automatic spray system for a friction wheel for a vehicle wheel, and more particularly, to an automatic spray system for a vehicle wheel that automatically senses the state of the road surface through a water sensor, To an automatic spray system for friction fluid.

Generally, automobiles are driven by rotating the tire by using the friction between the tire used on the wheels and the ground, and when the speed of the running vehicle is reduced or stopped, the braking action is also generated between the tire and the ground Friction force is used.

When such a car is raining or snowing while driving on the road, the vehicle slips due to the oil film shape in which the friction between the tire, which is the wheel of the car, and the ground is reduced by snow or rain.

Therefore, when the vehicle is driven with a lot of rain, the vehicle is decelerated by about 30% of the normal running speed, and when the vehicle runs on snow or ice, a separate anti-slip member is mounted on the wheel to prevent the wheel from slipping on the ground And is mounted.

In particular, in order to prevent the wheels from slipping on snowy roads or ice roads, a variety of mechanisms, commonly referred to as snow chains, have been provided as the non-slip members.

The snow chain is made of a variety of materials and is a mechanism for reducing the braking distance by raising the coefficient of friction of an automobile wheel by wrapping the circumferential surface of an automobile wheel using a material having high frictional force with the road surface.

However, the above-described snow chain has a problem that detachment is very troublesome, and efficiency in storage and transportation is poor.

Particularly, in the case of a woman or a driver of the elderly, there is a problem that detachment of the snow chain may cause considerable troubles and inconvenience.

Furthermore, the ride comfort was reduced, the road noise was increased, and the road was damaged.

In recent years, there has been provided a mechanism called a spray chain, which is easy to store and carry, while increasing the frictional force of an automobile wheel.

The spray chain is composed of a vessel which liquefies a material for increasing the frictional force of an automobile wheel and is sprayed with fine powder using gas pressure.

That is, as described above, the spray chain is constituted by the container capable of spraying the friction solution, so that it is convenient to use as compared with the snow chain detachment, and has a high convenience of storage and carrying convenience.

However, the above-described spray chain also has the following problems.

There has been a problem that the efficiency is deteriorated because the vehicle must be driven after a certain time has elapsed after spraying the friction fluid on the vehicle wheels before the start of the vehicle.

Particularly, when the vehicle is in operation, there is a problem of securing a stopping place and a problem of inconveniencing the spraying of the spray chain solution after the driver gets off.

It is to be understood that the words or words used in the present specification and claims are not to be construed in a conventional or dictionary sense and that the inventor can properly define the concept of a term in order to describe its invention in the best possible way And should be construed in light of the meanings and concepts consistent with the technical idea of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an automatic spray system for a vehicle wheel friction sprayer according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

The automatic spray system has a technical feature that can automatically spray the friction fluid on the vehicle wheel when the road surface is slippery due to rain or snow.

Accordingly, it is not necessary for the driver to stand up the vehicle, and it is not necessary to search for a separate place for the braking preparation work, thereby improving the convenience.

1 and 2, the automatic spray system includes a friction solution tank 100, a cleaning solution tank 200, a discharge pathway 300, a valve 400, a pump 500, A water sensor 600, a compressor 700, a heating unit 800, and a control unit 900.

The friction fluid reservoir 100 is a container for containing a liquid phase for increasing frictional force between the vehicle wheel and the road surface, and forms a space for accommodating the liquid phase.

At this time, the term "vehicle" refers to means that can be moved by using engine power, and representative examples include a motorcycle and an automobile.

The friction solution contained in the friction solution tank 100 is not limited to a specific one, and the position in which the friction solution is installed in the vehicle is also not limited.

At this time, it is preferable that the friction fluid reservoir 100 is installed in the vehicle so as not to be exposed to the outside of the vehicle for esthetics.

On the other hand, the friction solution tank 100 includes a transfer conduit 110 for discharging the friction solution.

The shape of the transfer conduit 110 is not limited, and may be configured to allow the friction fluid to escape from the friction fluid bath 100 by a pump 500 described later.

Next, the cleaning solution tank 200 is a container for containing a liquid phase for cleaning the discharge path 300 and the jet nozzle, and forms a space for accommodating the liquid phase.

That is, when the cleaning solution tank 200 does not use the friction solution for a long time and the friction solution is hardened in the discharge pipe 300, which is a pipe through which the friction solution is discharged, or if the inner surface of the discharge pipe is sticky with the dust, And serves to contain the solution for cleaning the furnace 300.

In addition, the user can arbitrarily spray the cleaning liquid, thereby preventing foreign matters from being trapped in the discharge pipe line 300.

The cleaning solution tank 200 is also installed in the vehicle so as not to be exposed to the outside of the vehicle for esthetics.

On the other hand, the cleaning solution tank 200 also includes a transfer pipe 210 for discharging the cleaning solution.

The shape of the transfer conduit 210 is not limited and may be a configuration that allows the cleaning solution to escape from the cleaning solution tank 200 by a pump 500 described later.

On the other hand, in the case of a vehicle provided with a windshield and a washer liquid reservoir, the washer liquid reservoir may be substituted for the cleaning liquid reservoir 200.

In the case of automobiles, since the washer fluid contained in the washer fluid reservoir can be replaced by the cleaning fluid, only the transfer fluid path 210 is added to the washer fluid reservoir. And may be connected to the discharge pipe line 300 for use.

The discharge pipe line 300 serves to discharge the liquid phase discharged from the friction fluid bath 100 or the cleaning fluid bath 200 toward the wheels of the vehicle and is connected to the transfer pipe 110 of the friction fluid bath 100 Is installed between the transfer pipe (210) of the cleaning solution tank (200).

That is, the discharge pipe line 300 communicates with the transfer pipe line 110 of the friction liquid tank 100 and is also connected to the transfer pipe line 210 of the cleaning liquid tank 200.

At this time, the injection nozzle 310 is installed at the end of the discharge pipe line 300.

Next, the valve 400 opens and closes the transfer conduits 110 and 210, and is installed in each of the transfer conduits 110 and 210.

At this time, the valve 400 is preferably provided as a solenoid valve, but is not limited thereto.

At this time, the opening / closing operation of the valve 400 is controlled by the controller 900.

That is, only one of the friction fluid tank 100 and the cleaning fluid tank 200 is connected to the discharge pipe 300 through the control of the valve 400.

Next, the pump 500 functions to inject the liquid phase of the opened transfer pipe to the injection nozzle through the discharge pipe line 300 to the wheels of the vehicle.

It is preferable that the pump 500 is installed in the discharge pipe 300, and a known technique can be applied to the construction of the pump 500.

Next, the rain sensor 600 measures the snow on the road surface caused by rain or the snow on the road surface caused by rainstorm, thereby causing the control unit 900 to perform the friction liquid spraying operation .

The water sensor 600 is installed at a lower portion of the vehicle and includes a power supply unit 610 for turning on / off the water sensor operation.

Next, the compressor 700 discharges high-pressure air to the injection nozzle 310 through the discharge pipe line 300.

That is, when the foreign matter is clogged in the injection nozzle 310, the foreign matter is taken out from the injection nozzle 310 through the high-pressure air injection.

Next, the heating unit 800 serves to bypass the cleaning liquid from the transfer pipe 210 to the discharge pipe 300 in order to warm the cleaning liquid.

That is, when the cleaning liquid or the friction liquid freezes due to the temperature drop and blocks the injection nozzle 310, the freezing nozzle 310 is thawed by using the cleaning liquid heated by the heating unit 800.

To this end, a waste pipe line B is provided between the cleaning solution tank 200 and the valve 400 to the discharge pipe line 300.

The heating unit 800 including the heater 810 is installed on the right-side hall passage B.

On the other hand, the heating unit 800 includes a temperature sensor 820.

The temperature sensor 820 senses the external temperature and controls the controller 900 to discharge the cleaning liquid to the injection nozzle 310 automatically through the heating unit 800 so that the injection nozzle 310 is connected to the temperature sensor 820, So that the sea ice operation of the sea ice can be performed automatically.

Next, the controller 900 controls the operation of the automatic spray system, and the controller 900 is controlled through a remote control method.

The control unit 900 controls the opening and closing of the valves 400 installed in the transfer piping 110 and 210 of the friction fluid tank 100 and the cleaning fluid tank 200 and includes a timer for controlling the operation of the water sensor 600 910).

That is, the water sensor 600 is controlled by the timer 910 of the controller 900 to be turned on / off every predetermined time.

The control unit 900 controls the operation of the heating unit 800 and the compressor 700.

Hereinafter, the operation of the automatic spray system constructed as described above will be described.

Preferably, the automatic spray system is detachably mounted to the vehicle, wherein the injection nozzle 310 is installed to face the wheel of the vehicle as shown in FIG.

At this time, it is preferable that the injection nozzle 310 is installed toward the driving wheel of the vehicle.

These automatic spray systems can be installed in the vehicle at all times, and can be used in conjunction with slippery rainy season or snowy winter only.

On the other hand, with the automatic spray system combined, the user turns on the automatic spray system using the remote control.

Then, during running, the water sensor 600 installed at the lower part of the vehicle periodically measures the state of the road surface at regular time intervals and sends the measured values to the controller 900.

The control unit 900 opens only the valve 400 provided on the transfer pipe 110 of the friction fluid tank 100 to measure the state of the road surface through the water sensor 600, So that the transfer pipe (110) and the discharge pipe (300) of the friction solution tank (100) are connected.

Thereafter, the control unit 900 operates the pump 500.

At this time, the friction solution is sprayed onto the wheels of the vehicle through the injection nozzle 310, and the coefficient of friction between the wheels and the road surface increases due to the friction solution adsorbed on the wheels, thereby enabling safe driving.

On the other hand, the water sensor 600 measures the state of the road surface only for the time determined by the timer 910 of the control unit 900.

If the water sensor 600 continuously measures the state of the road surface without the timer 910, for example, when the road surface is covered with rain or snow, the water sensor 600 continuously measures the state of the road surface to the control unit 900 The control unit 900 continuously injects the friction solution through the injection nozzle 310. [0064]

As a result, not only the friction liquid is excessively consumed, but also the efficiency of the automatic injection operation is deteriorated.

Therefore, the sensing of the water sensor 600 is stopped at predetermined intervals through the timer 910 of the control unit 900, so that the injection efficiency for the friction solution can be enhanced.

On the other hand, if the friction solution is hardened in the injection nozzle 310 for a long time or if the tackiness of the friction solution remains on the discharge pipe 300, the discharge pipe 300 and the injection nozzle 310 are cleaned .

To this end, the user arbitrarily injects the cleaning liquid of the cleaning liquid tank 200 using a remote controller.

That is, when the user presses the remote control button, the control unit 900 opens only the valve 400 installed on the transfer pipe 210 of the cleaning liquid tank 200 and connects the transfer pipe 210 of the cleaning liquid tank 200 and the discharge pipe 300 Lt; / RTI >

The control unit 900 operates the pump 500 to inject the cleaning liquid of the cleaning liquid tank 200 through the injection nozzle 310 so that the transfer pipe 210 and the injection nozzle 310 can be cleaned by the cleaning liquid .

Thus, it is possible to always smoothly spray the friction solution when spraying the friction solution.

On the other hand, when foreign substances are trapped in the spray nozzle 310, or when the temperature is lowered in the winter, the friction solution or the cleaning liquid may freeze on the discharge pipe 300 to block the pipe.

At this time, the user operates the remote controller to cause the control unit 900 to operate the compressor 700 or the heating unit 800.

For example, when foreign substances are trapped in the injection nozzle 310, the compressor 700 is operated to discharge the high-pressure air to the injection nozzle 310 through the discharge pipe 300, so that the foreign matter can be removed from the injection nozzle 310 .

When the user sends a signal to the control unit 900 through the remote controller in the case where the solution is frozen in the discharge pipe line 300, the control unit 900 controls the valve 400 installed in the transfer pipe 210 of the cleaning liquid tank 200 Is closed and the heating unit 800 is operated.

Then, when the pump 500 is operated, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid tank 200 is heated through the heater 810 of the heating unit 800 and then transferred to the discharge pipe 300 through the right-side hall passage B.

At this time, since the frozen spray nozzle 310 can be thawed by the warmed cleaning liquid, the hole of the closed injection nozzle 310 can be opened.

As described above, the automatic spray system for friction wheels for vehicle wheels according to the present invention has a technical feature that automatically detects the state of the road surface using a water sensor and automatically injects the friction solution onto the wheels of the vehicle.

Accordingly, it is not necessary for the user to stop or unload the vehicle in order to prepare for slip prevention on the vehicle wheels when raining or snowing, so that convenience can be improved.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is evident that many alternatives, modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
