Definitions

  • ABSTRACT The specification discloses a method of making a road wheel for a vehicle in which the material of the wheel has anisotropic properties.
  • the wheel comprises a central portion, a peripheral or rim portion and a plurality of separate radial portions between the central portion and the rim portion.
  • the specification describes how anisotropic properties can be obtained in the radial portions and the peripheral portion by causing the material to flow radially along the radial portions and peripherally around the peripheral portion during the formation of the wheel. This formation is effected by placing a billet of flowable material in a cavity and then moving selected elements of the cavity to produce the desired flow of the material.
  • the wheel can be made of a thermoplastic, synthetic polymeric material with or without fibre reinforcement, a thermosetting, synthetic polymeric material with fibre reinforcement or a metal with or without fibre reinforcement.
  • This invention relates to the manufacture of articles, particularly wheels, having a central portion, a peripheral portion and a plurality of separate radial portions radiating from the central portion to the peripheral portion and interconnecting the central and peripheral portions.
  • the invention finds particular utility in the manufacture of road wheels for motor vehicles although it is also applicable to the manufacture of articles other than road wheels which have continuous or discontinuous peripheral portions and radial portions radiating from a central portion to the peripheral portion.
  • road wheels have been made from metal and conventional wheels have been made from steel having a ring-like rim which is fixedly or detachably mounted on a disc.
  • the lighter type road wheels usually comprise a one piece rim welded to a disc.
  • Heavier wheels comprise multipart rims secured to discs.
  • Cast road wheels of light alloy are also known. In metal wheels it has been unnecessary to develop any anisotropic mechanical properties in the metal since the normal isotropic properties are sufficiently good to withstand the stresses in use.
  • the radial portions act as spokes between the central portion which will be the hub and the peripheral portion which will be the rim.
  • the spokes are subjected mainly to stress in radial directions and therefore it is desirable that the best mechanical properties of the material in the spokes are exhibited in radial directions.
  • the rim will be subjected mainly to hoop stress and therefore it is desirable that the best mechanical properties of the material forming the rim are exhibited in peripheral directions.
  • the invention has as its object to provide a method of and apparatus for forming an article having the above characteristics in which the mechanical properties of the material in the radial portions are improved in radial directions with respect to such properties in other directions and in which the mechanical properties of the material in the peripheral portion is improved in circumferential directions with respect to such properties in other directions.
  • an article e.g. a wheel, having a central portion, a peripheral portion and a plurality of separate radial portions radiating from the central portion to the peripheral portion by causing flow of flowable material within a cavity having central, radial and peripheral parts in which said central radial and peripheral portions are respectively formed, the method comprising displacing the material from the central parts of the cavity into the radial parts thereof and then reducing the volume of said radial parts to cause material therein to flow radially outwardly and into the peripheral part around which said material flows peripherally.
  • the result of this method is to produce an article formed of material having anisotropic properties in both radial portions and the peripheral portion such that the mechanical properties e.g. the yield point, are better in radial than other directions in the radial portionsand are better in peripheral than other directions in the peripheral portion.
  • the peripheral part is held at a larger volume than its final volume at which the peripheral portion is formed and the peripheral part is subsequently reduced in size to its final volume simultaneously with, or after, said reduction in size of the radial parts.
  • This reduction in size of the peripheral part will assist in the peripheral flow of the material in the peripheral part and thus the obtaining of the desired anisotropic properties in the peripheral portion.
  • the reduction in size of the peripheral part takes place after the reduction in size of the radial parts has taken place or at least after the reduction in size of the radial parts has commenced thus establishing a flow of material into the peripheral part from the radial parts.
  • the material from which the article is made is preferably either thermoplastic synthetic polymeric material with or without fibre reinforcement or a thermosetting synthetic polymeric material with fibre reinforcement.
  • the reinforcing fibres will be of any convenient material e.g. carbon or glass.
  • the invention is also applicable to the manufacture of an article by causing metal to flow in the manner described above and the metal can be fibre reinforced, e.g. with tungsten or boron fibres.
  • the polymer chains When the material is a thermoplastic synthetic polymeric material, the polymer chains will be orientated by the flow of the material during manufacture of the article so that the chains extend radially in the radial portions and peripherally in the peripheral portions thus giving the desired anisotropic properties.
  • the material whatever it is, is reinforced with fibres then the fibres will be orientated generally radially in the radial portions and generally peripherally in the peripheral portions which further assists in obtaining the desired anisotropic properties.
  • the cross-linked thermosetting polymeric materials With the cross-linked thermosetting polymeric materials the anisotropic properties will be obtained by the orientation of the fibre reinforcement.
  • the material during its flow as the size of the radial parts is reduced will follow L-shaped paths.
  • the material will be caused to flow radially outwardly along a radial part and then peripherally in the peripheral part.
  • the material may be caused to flow in generally T- shaped paths.
  • the material may be caused to flow radially outwardly along each radial part and then, when it reaches the peripheral part, caused to flow peripherally in opposite directions until the material initially fed along one radial part meets in the peripheral part, material initially fed radially outwardly along an adjacent radial part into the peripheral portion.
  • the areas of the article between the radial portions mentioned above may be formed by webs in which the material forming them has flowed biaxially. That is to say that as the material flows outwardly from the central part of the cavity it will expand both radially and peripherally and therefore the polymer chains, metal grains and/or reinforcing fibres as the case may be will be oriented substantially half in radial directions and substantially half in peripheral directions. Where such webs are provided the cavity will include intermediate parts each defined between two adjacent radial parts, the central part and the peripheral part. These intermediate parts will be brought to their final volume simultaneously with, or before, the first phase of the forming when the material is displaced from the central part into the radial parts, the material being simultaneously disposed into said intermediate parts.
  • the material is initially in the form of a slug which is deformed and caused to flow between moving parts which define the cavity and are moved to obtain the desired directions of flow of the material.
  • the slug may be formed in situ in the central part of the cavity by injection.
  • the material being formed is a thermoplastic polymeric material or a metal
  • reduction in size of the mould cavity is arranged to occur at an appropriate time and speed to effect cold work on the material and thus improves the physical properties thereof.
  • apparatus for forming from flowable material an article having a central portion, a peripheral portion and a plurality of separate radial portions radiating from the central portion, the apparatus comprising a plurality of relatively movable elements which define a cavity having a central part, radial parts and a peripheral part for forming the central, radial and peripheral portions respectively, the elements defining the radial parts being movable relative to other/of said elements whereby the radial parts of said cavity may be varied in size independently of other parts of the cavity.
  • the elements defining the peripheral part of the cavity are movable relative to other of said elements whereby the movable relative to other of said elements whereby the peripheral part of the cavity may be varied in size independently of other parts of the cavity.
  • the cavity includes intermediate parts, each such part being defined by two adjacnet radial parts and the central and peripheral parts and the elements defining the intermediate parts are movable relative to other of said elements whereby the intermediate parts of the cavity may be varied in size independently of other parts of the cavity.

  • FIG. 7 shows that each spoke-like portion 11 is thicker in the axial direction of the wheel than the immediately surrounding or intermediate portions 12.
  • These intermediate portions 12 form generally triangular webs between the adjacent radial portions 11 and are further defined by the rim portion 10 and a central or hub portion 13 from which the spoke portions 11 radiate to the rim portion 10.
  • FIG. I this is a section through the apparatus used to produce the wheel of FIGS. 5 to 7.
  • the core element 16 is made in three or more parts to enable it to be withdrawn from the finished wheel.
  • each element 14 is an assembly 18 of 16 elements, thus there are either elements corresponding to the spokes or radial portions 11 and eight elements corresponding to the swebs or intermediate portions 12. The elements corresponding to the spokes can be moved independently of the elements corresponding to the webs.
  • a slug 19 of deformable material is shown between the elements in FIG. I. All the elements in the central assemblies 18 are moved together to cause the material of the slug 19 to flow outwardly from the central part 20 of the cavity into the radial parts 21, the intermediate parts 22 and the peripheral part 23. The amount of material in the peripheral part is insufficient to fill it and tis situation is shown in FIGS. 2a and 2b. In FIG.
  • the elements indicated at 24 correspond to the spoke portions 11.
  • the elements 25 correspond to the web portions 12.
  • the material of the slug 19 which is to form the webs 12 is therefore caused to flow outwardly into the cavity parts 22 and can expand peripherally due to the triangular shape of the cavity parts 22 so that the orientation of the polymer chains (if a thermoplastic polymer is used) or metal texture (ie the larger grain boundaries and inclusions) and the fibre reinforcement if used is biaxial in the webs 12.

  • the elements 24 are now closed together as shown in FIG. 3 and this causes the material in the spoke parts 21 of the cavity to move radially as indicated by the arrow 27 in FIG. 3 and the material enters the cavity part 23.
  • the material in the cavity part 23 is caused to move peripherally around the part 23 both by being caused to enter the part 23 from the parts 21 and also by the movement of the elements 14 together to the positions shown in FIG. 3.
