Description

공기압이 자동으로 조절되는 타이어 공기압 충전장치{A tire air pressure accumulating device for automatically adjusting air pressure}A tire air pressure accumulating device for automatically adjusting air pressure}

본 발명은 차량에 사용되는 타이어 공기압 충전장치에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 타이어 공기압이 규정 압력보다 낮아졌을 때 타이어 휠에 장착된 압력센서가 이를 감지하여 ECU에 보내게 되면 ECU가 밸브를 개방하여 타이어의 공기압을 보상하도록 된 공기압이 자동으로 조절되는 타이어 공기압 충전장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a tire pneumatic charging device used in a vehicle. More specifically, when the tire pneumatic pressure is lower than the specified pressure, the pressure sensor mounted on the tire wheel detects this and sends it to the ECU. It relates to a tire pneumatic filling device that automatically adjusts the air pressure to compensate for the tire pressure.

일반적으로 타이어는 차체를 지지하면서 엔진의 구동력을 최종적으로 받아 차량의 이동에 사용되는 중요한 부품이다. 여기서 타이어의 공기압은 승차감과 차량의 속도에 밀접한 관계가 있다. 즉 적정한 타이어 공기압을 유지해야만 차량의 속도가 보장되고 쾌적한 승차감을 유지할 수 있는 것이다.In general, a tire is an important part used to move a vehicle while receiving a driving force of an engine while supporting a vehicle body. Here, the tire air pressure is closely related to the riding comfort and the speed of the vehicle. In other words, it is necessary to maintain proper tire pressure to ensure the speed of the vehicle and to maintain a comfortable ride.

한편 종래의 타이어 공기압은 도 3에 도시된 것과 같이, 일체형으로 된 타이어 훨(200)과, 이 타이어 휠의 외주면에 끼워진 타이어(100)와, 상기 타이어 휠(200)의 일측 내부에 설치된 공기주입구(210)로 이루어진 타이어 조립체에서, 공기주입구(200)를 통하여 외부에서 공기를 채워 넣을 수 있었다.On the other hand, the conventional tire inflation pressure is, as shown in Figure 3, an integral tire wheel 200, the tire 100 fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the tire wheel, and the air inlet provided inside one side of the tire wheel 200 In the tire assembly consisting of 210, the air was filled in from the outside through the air inlet 200.

여기서 타이어 공기압은 작업자 내지 운전자가 공기압측정기 등으로 일일이 확인한 후, 공기압을 높이거나 운전자의 감각에 의존해 공기압을 높이기 때문에, 수시로 공기압을 측정해야만 되어 불편함이 있었다.Here, the tire air pressure is uncomfortable because the operator or the driver checks the pressure with an air pressure gauge, etc., and then increases the air pressure or increases the air pressure depending on the driver's sense.

또한 상기 타이어 휠(200)이 일체형으로 되어 있기 때문에 타이어(100)를 타이어 휠(200)에다 조립하려면, 특수한 공구 내지 장비가 필요하기 때문에, 타이어의 펑크나 소손을 위해 여분으로 가지고 다니는 스페이어 타이어에도 타이어 휠이 함께 조립되어야만 되어 부품수가 늘어나 차량의 무게를 증가시키는 원인으로 되어왔다.In addition, since the tire wheel 200 is integrated, a special tool or equipment is required to assemble the tire 100 to the tire wheel 200, so that spare tires are carried to spare the tire for puncture or burn out of the tire. In addition, tire wheels must be assembled together, increasing the number of parts, which has contributed to increasing the weight of the vehicle.

이에 본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 발명된 것으로, 타이어 휠을 두 부분으로 분리하여 분리가능하도록 형성하고, 압력센서를 타이어 내부에 설치하며, 공기주입구를 에어탱크와 연결하여 이루어짐에 의해, 타이어 압력이 떨어졌을 때, 상기 압력센서가 이를 감지하여 공기주입구를 통해서 자동적으로 공기압을 보충하도록 된 공기압이 자동으로 조절되는 타이어 공기압 충전장치를 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been invented to solve the above problems, by separating the tire wheel into two parts to form a detachable, by installing a pressure sensor inside the tire, by connecting the air inlet and the air tank It is an object of the present invention to provide a tire pneumatic charging device in which the air pressure is automatically adjusted to automatically replenish the air pressure through the air inlet by detecting the pressure when the tire pressure drops.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 일체형으로 된 타이어 훨과, 이 타이어 휠의 외주면에 끼워진 타이어와, 상기 타이어 휠의 일측 내부에 설치된 공기주입구로 이루어진 타이어 공기압 충전장치에 있어서, 상기 타이어 휠이 분리가능하게 이루어지고, 이 타이어 휠의 일측부에 압력센서가 설치되고, 이 압력센서는 에어탱크와 연결된 밸브를 제어하는 ECU와 연계되어 있고, 상기 밸브는 타이어 휠을 거쳐 타이어 내부에 돌출 형성된 공기주입구와 연결되는 것을 특징으로 한다.The present invention for achieving the above object is a tire pneumatic filling device comprising an integrated tire wheel, a tire fitted to an outer circumferential surface of the tire wheel, and an air inlet provided in one side of the tire wheel. It is made detachable, and a pressure sensor is installed at one side of the tire wheel, and the pressure sensor is connected to an ECU that controls a valve connected to the air tank, and the valve protrudes inside the tire via the tire wheel. It is characterized in that it is connected to the air inlet.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 공기압 충전장치의 작동 상태도이고, 도 2는 본 발명에 따른 공기압 충전장치의 구성요소인 타이어 휠의 개략도이다.1 is an operational state diagram of a pneumatic charging device according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a schematic view of a tire wheel that is a component of the pneumatic charging device according to the present invention.

도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명은 두 부분으로 분리된 타이어 휠(2)의 일측부에 압력센서(12)가 설치되고, 이 압력센서(12)는 에어탱크(9)와 연결된 밸브(11)를 제어하는 ECU(8)와 연계되어 있고, 상기 밸브(11)는 타이어 휠(2)을 거쳐 타이어 내부에 돌출 형성된 공기주입구(2-4)와 연결되어 있다. 한편 상기 에어 탱크(9)는 차량에 설치되어 있는 공기압축기(10)에 의해 공기를 공급받도록 되어 있다.As shown, the present invention is provided with a pressure sensor 12 on one side of the tire wheel 2 divided into two parts, the pressure sensor 12 is a valve 11 connected to the air tank (9) The valve 11 is connected to an air inlet 2-4 protruding from the inside of the tire via the tire wheel 2. On the other hand, the air tank 9 is to be supplied with air by the air compressor (10) installed in the vehicle.

여기서, 상기 타이어 휠(2)은 도 2와 같이 제1바디(2-1)와, 이 제1바디와 대응되게 형성된 제2바디(2-2)로 이루어지며, 제2바디(2-2)에는 가스켓(2-3)이 설치되어 있어 조립된 후에도 타이어의 공기가 외부로 빠져나가지 못하도록 한다. 한편 타이어 휠(2)의 조립은 서로 대응되게 형성된 제1바디(2-1)와 제2바디(2-2)를 서로 마주보게 위치하여 타이어(1)를 끼운 후, 등속조인트(5)와 연결된 허브(3)에 체결볼트(4)를 매개로 고정하면 된다.Here, the tire wheel 2 is composed of a first body (2-1) and a second body (2-2) formed to correspond to the first body, as shown in Figure 2, the second body (2-2) ), The gasket (2-3) is installed so that the air of the tire does not escape to the outside even after assembly. On the other hand, the assembly of the tire wheel (2) is located so as to face the first body (2-1) and the second body (2-2) formed to correspond to each other to insert the tire (1), then the constant velocity joint (5) and The fastening bolt 4 may be fixed to the connected hub 3 through a medium.

이하, 상기와 같은 특징으로 이루어진 본 발명의 작용을 상세하게 설명하기로 한다.Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention made of the above characteristics will be described in detail.

먼저, 적정한 공기압을 유지하고 있던 타이어 공기압이 외부의 요인으로 인해 떨어지게 되면, 압력센서(12)가 이를 감지하고서, ECU(8)에 공기압 보충 신호를 보내게 되면, ECU(8)가 밸브(11)를 개방하여 공기주입구(2-4)를 통해 타이어(1) 내부로 공기가 보충되어 공기압이 충전되게 된다.First, when the tire air pressure maintaining the proper air pressure drops due to an external factor, the pressure sensor 12 detects this and sends an air pressure supplement signal to the ECU 8, so that the ECU 8 switches the valve 11. ) By opening the air through the air inlet (2-4) to the inside of the tire (1) to fill the air pressure.

한편 타이어가 펑크 내지 소손으로 인해 더 이상 사용이 어려울 때는 상기 체결볼트(4)를 분리한 후, 타이어(1)를 분리하여 제거한 다음 이어, 차량내부에 보관해 온 스페어 타이어를 타이어 휠(2)에 장착하여 체결볼트(4)를 매개로 허브(3)에 연결/고정하면 타이어의 교체가 간단하게 끝나게 된다On the other hand, when the tire is hard to use anymore due to puncture or burnout, the fastening bolt 4 is removed, the tire 1 is separated and removed, and the spare tire stored in the vehicle is then replaced by the tire wheel 2. When the tire is attached to the hub (3) by fastening bolts (4), the replacement of tires is easily completed.

이상과 같이 상세하게 설명된 본 발명에 의하면, 타이어 공기압이 규정 압력보다 낮아졌을 때 타이어 휠에 장착된 압력센서가 이를 감지하여 자동으로 타이어의 공기압을 보충함에 따라, 일일이 타이어 공기압을 체크해야만 되는 번거로움이 없어짐은 물론, 타이어 휠이 분리할 수 있도록 제작함에 따라 여분의 스페이어 타이어에 타이어 휠이 없어도 타이어의 교체가 가능하여 차량의 부품수를 줄일 수 있는 효과가 있다.According to the present invention described in detail as described above, when the tire inflation pressure is lower than the prescribed pressure, the pressure sensor mounted on the tire wheel detects this and automatically replenishes the inflation pressure of the tire, so that tire tire pressure must be checked one by one. As well as elimination of the tire, the tire wheel can be separated, so that the spare tire can be replaced even without the tire wheel, thereby reducing the number of parts of the vehicle.
