Description

Resonance sound reduction tire {TIRE FOR REDUCING CAVITY NOISE}

The present invention relates to a tire for reducing resonance sound, and a porous foam foam sound absorber in the form of a block is attached to the inner surface of the tire, and the sound absorber on the inner surface of the tire is applied to the front surface by adjusting the density, height, number of attachments, etc. of the sound absorber. It relates to a resonance sound reduction tire that exhibits a sound absorption performance comparable to that of a used tire.

Background Art Recently, interest in vehicle and tire manufacturers has increased due to noise generated from tire cavities of a driving vehicle. This noise is generated as a sound having a sharp peak in the cabin, which causes discomfort to the driver and causes a reduction in riding comfort. In particular, as the tire specification mounted on the vehicle becomes flat and inch up, tire resonance noise is emerging as an important problem to be solved.

Various studies have been conducted to reduce the tire resonance sound. A sponge having a specific gravity of 0.005 to 0.060 is attached to the inner surface of the tire (Patent Document 1), a cylindrical foamed sound absorber having a hollow portion is attached to the inner surface of the tire (Patent Document 2), or a porous sound absorbing material compared to the cross-sectional area of the space formed on the inner surface of the tire. A method of attaching a porous sound absorbing material (Patent Document 3) is known so that the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the film is 23 to 29%.

However, when the entire tire is coated with a sound absorbing material, the weight of the tire is increased, which is disadvantageous to fuel efficiency, and a decrease in uniformity performance occurs.

In addition, the porous foam sound absorbing body having a polyhedral block (Block) form may be more preferable in terms of sound absorption in the volume of 20x104 ~ 240x104 kPa. According to the present invention, if the volume of the porous foam foam sound absorber is similar, the sound absorption performance of the sound absorber also shows a similar tendency.

As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the porous foam sound absorbing body may be in the form of a cube block having a width and length of 100 to 180 mm and a height of 20 to 75 mm.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the porous foam sound absorbing body has a horizontal top length of 10 to 40 mm, a horizontal bottom length of 100 to 180 mm, a vertical length of 100 to 180 mm, a height of 20 to 75 mm It may be in the form of a block having a trapezoidal cross section.

As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the porous foam sound absorbing body has a horizontal top length of 10 to 40 mm, a horizontal bottom length of 100 to 180 mm, a vertical length of 100 to 180 mm, the height of both ends is 10 ~ 20 mm, the center height may be in the form of an octahedral block (Block) of 21 ~ 75 mm.

According to the present invention, the porous foam foam absorber is affected by the volume of the block in sound absorption performance, and is affected by the height change of the block in vertical vibration.

In one embodiment of the invention, the porous foam sound absorbing body is attached to the inner surface of the tire using an adhesive. The adhesive may use a material of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) type or thermoplastic polyacrylic type. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the porous foam foam absorbent body may be attached to the inner surface of the tire by a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) type or a thermoplastic polyacrylic adhesive tape.

As described above, the resonance sound reduction tire provided by the present invention has a fuel efficiency improvement effect due to weight reduction, a uniformity performance maintenance effect, and sound absorption performance improvement effect compared to a tire coated with sound absorbing material on the entire inner surface. Getting it.

EXAMPLE

Example 1 Production of Tires for Resonance Sound Reduction

A porous foam sound absorber prepared by foaming melamine resin was prepared. The sound absorbing body was in the form of a hexahedral block, the width * length * height was 130 * 100 * 75 ㎣, the density was 32 kg / ㎥.

Four manufactured sound absorber blocks were attached to positions 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees of the inner surface of the tire 245 / 45R19, respectively, to produce a resonance sound reducing tire, and the sound absorber was 90 in the circumferential direction of the tire. Attached at an angle. In addition, in order to easily attach the sound absorber to the inner surface of the tire, a double-sided tape coated with a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) type adhesive was attached to one surface of the sound absorber.

Comparative Example 1. Manufacture of tires for resonance sound reduction

Porous foam foam absorbers prepared by foaming the ether type urethane resin was prepared. The sound absorbing body has a width * length * height of 120 * 700 * 20 mm 3 and a density of 30 kg / m 3. On the inner surface of the tire 245 / 45R19, a butyl gel type sealant was applied as an adhesive to the entire surface with a thickness of 1 to 2 mm. The sound absorbing body prepared above was attached to the front surface in the circumferential direction of the inner surface of the tire to manufacture a tire for reducing resonance sound.

Comparative Example 2. Manufacture of Tires for Resonance Sound Reduction

Porous foam foam absorbers prepared by foaming the ether type urethane resin was prepared. The sound absorbing body has a width * length * height of 120 * 700 * 20 mm 3 and a density of 30 kg / m 3. A polyether-based solid type adhesive was applied to the inner surface of the tire 245 / 45R19, but five lines were applied in the circumferential direction of the tire to have a width of 10 mm and a gap of 20 mm. The sound absorbing body prepared above was attached to the front surface in the circumferential direction of the inner surface of the tire to manufacture a tire for reducing resonance sound.

The results of comparing the sound absorption performance of the resonance sound reduction tires manufactured in Examples 1, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 are shown in Table 1 below.

According to the results of Table 1, it can be seen that the resonance sound reduction tire of Example 1 was excellent in sound absorption performance despite the relatively small increase in weight.

Experimental Example

Experimental Example 1. Comparison of sound absorption effect according to the height of the front surface of the sound absorbing body

In this experimental example, the sound absorbing body in which the melamine resin was foamed was attached to the front surface of the tire inner surface. At this time, the sound absorbing body was attached to the entire tire inner surface using a thermoplastic polyacrylic adhesive tape.

Table 2 is a result of comparing the sound-absorbing effect according to the height (H) of the sound absorbing body, when the porous foam foam sound absorbing body is attached to the front,

According to the results of Table 2, even when the porous foam foam sound absorbing body is attached to the front, the sound absorbing effect tended to increase as the height of the sound absorbing body was increased.

In addition, Fig. 1 shows the result of measuring the noise level for each frequency at the time of applying the sound absorbing body so that the height (H) is 10, 20, 25 mm in a graph.

Experimental Example 2 Comparison of Sound Absorption Effect According to Height When One Sound Absorber in Block Shape was Attached

In this Experimental Example, a sound absorbing body in the form of a hexahedron block having a horizontal * vertical * height 130 * 100 * height (H) ㎣ in the same manner as in Example 1 was prepared. And one manufactured sound absorbing body adhered to the circumferential direction of a tire using the adhesive tape of a thermoplastic polyacrylic type.

According to the results of Table 3, the sound absorbing effect tended to increase as the height (H) of the sound absorbing body increased, as in the case of the front surface of the porous foam foam sound absorbing body.

According to Table 3, the block-shaped sound absorbing body shows a difference of -6.4 dB sound absorption when the height of 25 mm or 75 mm is attached. In addition, when the sound absorbing body having a height of 25 mm is prepared, the difference in the sound absorbing effect is -8 dB compared to the case of attaching one at the time of front attachment. However, when the sound absorbing body of 75 mm block type was attached, the sound absorption effect difference of only 1.6 dB was shown compared with the tire attached to the front by 25 mm height. Therefore, it can be seen that the sound absorbing body in the form of a block can produce a tire having sound absorption performance comparable to that of the front coating by height adjustment.

In addition, FIG. 2 graphically shows the noise level of the tire with one block-type sound absorber having a height H of 25 or 75 mm, compared with the tire on which the sound absorber was entirely coated at 25 mm height.

Experimental Example 3. Comparison of Sound Absorption Effect According to the Number of Attached Sound Absorbers in Block Shape

In this Experimental Example, a sound absorbing body in the form of a hexahedron block having a horizontal * vertical * height 130 * 100 * height (H) ㎣ in the same manner as in Example 1 was prepared. And the sound absorbing body manufactured was affixed in the direction which becomes 90 degree with respect to the circumferential direction of a tire using the adhesive tape of a thermoplastic polyacrylic type.

According to Table 4, when the four block-type sound absorbing body is attached, it can be confirmed that the sound-absorbing efficiency according to the height (H) in comparison with the one attached (Table 2).

In addition, as the number of block-type sound absorbers increased, the sound absorbing effect tended to increase, and when three or more block-shaped sound absorbers were attached, it can be seen that the sound absorbing effect was comparable with that of the front surface. When four sound absorbers having a block shape having a height of 75 mm were attached, it can be seen that there is a -10.2 dB sound absorbing effect in comparison with a tire without a sound absorbing body. According to the experimental results, it can be seen that the melamine resin foam foam effectively lowers the noise figure by bringing additional effects such as sound insulation / frequency shift as well as sound absorption.

Experimental Example 4. Comparison of Sound Absorption Effect According to Density of Sound Absorbing Body

In this experimental example, a sound absorbing body in the form of a hexahedron block having a horizontal * vertical * height of 130 * 100 * 75 ㎣ in the same manner as in Example 1 was prepared, but the sound absorbing body was prepared by changing the foam density. In addition, one manufactured sound absorbing body was attached in the circumferential direction of the tire using a thermoplastic polyacrylic adhesive tape.

Table 5 is a result of comparing the sound absorption effect according to the density of the sound absorbing body in the form of a block,

According to the results of Table 5, the sound absorbing efficiency was shown to increase as the density of the sound absorbing body increased, showing the highest sound-absorbing effect when using a foam having a density of 32 kg / ㎥ and the tire without a sound absorbing body (Experiment 4 In comparison with -1), it showed sound absorption efficiency of 7.1 dB. On the other hand, using a foam increased to 44 kg / ㎥ density it can be seen that the sound-absorbing efficacy is rather reduced. By using a foam having a density of 20 to 45 kg / m 3, a sound absorbing body suitable for achieving the object of the present invention can be produced.

Experimental Example 5. Actual vehicle performance evaluation

This experimental example is for confirming the change in uniform characteristics after attaching the block-type sound absorbing body according to the present invention to the tire.

According to Table 6, it is determined that the RFV has no influence on the radial force variation (RFV) after the sound absorber is attached in the range of wh 1 when the measurement is remeasured. In addition, it can be seen that the amount of change in D / B after the sound absorbing material is also manageable.

Experimental Example 6. Evaluation of sound absorption performance according to the height, length, cross-sectional area of the sound absorbing body

This experimental example is for confirming the sound absorption performance according to the height and length change of the block-type sound absorbing body according to the present invention.

The block-type sound absorbing body was a sound absorbing body in the form of an octahedral block having a density of 32 kg / m 3 foamed with melamine resin, and the same cross-sectional area was maintained as 3000 mm 2 and width 120 mm. That is, the sound absorbing body in the form of octahedral block has the same volume as 36x104 mm 3, but the sound absorbing body was manufactured by changing the length and height of the sound absorbing body. Four manufactured sound absorbers were attached in the circumferential direction of the tire using a thermoplastic polyacrylic adhesive tape.

According to the above Table 7, the tires with the nicks (Experiments 6-2, 6-3, 6-4) have a sound absorbing effect of about 10 dB compared to the tires without the sound absorbers (Experiment 6-1). . In addition, experiments 6-2, 6-3, and 6-4 are 36x104 부피 in volume, which are the same, but have different heights and lengths, and the sound absorbing effect is hardly affected by the height and length changes. have. That is, according to Table 7, it can be seen that the sound absorbing effect of the sound absorbing body is influenced by the change in the size of the cross-sectional area but not the change in the length and height.

Experimental Example 7. Evaluation of vibration reduction performance according to height and length change of sound absorbing body

This experimental example measured the vertical vibration according to the speed of the tire to confirm the vibration reduction performance according to the height and length change of the block-type sound absorbing body according to the present invention, the results are shown in FIG. As the sound absorbing body, four block-type sound absorbing bodies 6-2, 6-3, and 6-4 prepared in Example 6 were attached to the tire.

According to FIG. 3, compared to the tire A without the sound absorbing body, the tires B, C, and D having the block type sound absorbing bodies 6-2, 6-3, and 6-4 have a significantly reduced vibration generating area. can confirm.

In addition, it can be seen that there is a difference in vertical vibration also by the change in the length and height of the sound absorbing body. That is, the tire (B) is a tire attached to the adsorbent having a higher height than other tires, and compared to the tires (C, D) attached to the lower adsorbent than this, it can be seen that the vibration occurs more strongly in a specific area. have. Among the tires B, C, and D with the block type sound absorbing body, the tire C with the sound absorbing body 6-3 is particularly excellent in vibration reduction efficiency.

According to the results of Experimental Example 6 and Experimental Example 7, the sound absorbing performance of the block-type sound absorbing body is affected by the volume of the sound absorbing body, the vibration reduction performance may be affected by the height of the sound absorbing body.
