Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vehicle wheel with - in particular one-piece - rim and tubeless pneumatic tire, - with on the radially outer circumferential surface of the rim concentric to the rim mounted emergency run ring with on its radially outer surface trained the tire in case of damage supporting emergency surface, the outer diameter of which is greater than the maximum rim diameter is.
  • Such emergency running support bodies are usually fastened in the deep bed formed between the seat surfaces of the tire with its beads on the rim for mounting the tire.
  • Emergency running support rings enable individual retrofitting of vehicle pneumatic wheels without emergency running suitability for emergency running suitability and a limited change of the emergency running suitability by retrofitting.
  • the assembly of the support body on the rim is very complex. With vehicle wheels of this type, it must always be taken into account that the tire with its tension-resistant beads must also be mounted on the rim, one bead with its small diameter being fastened to the rim to the left of the support ring and the other bead having its right next to the support ring becomes.
  • a bead with a small diameter must be moved over the outer diameter of the emergency run support ring or the emergency run support ring must be moved under the bead.
  • a support effect in the belt edge area is particularly important in emergency running. Even if the emergency running support surface, in spite of this, additional assembly problems extends axially outwards to the extent that the belt is supported, the forces acting on the emergency running support surface from the belt edge region of the tread are introduced in the axial edge region of the rim and the forces are introduced into the rim axially offset more or less axial center area of the rim.

  • the introduction of force from the emergency running support body into the rim in the outer rim edge area also enables a more stable bearing arrangement of the emergency running body on the rim.
  • the axial position for the force transmission into the rim corresponds to the axial position of the force transmission into the rim in normal operation of the vehicle wheel without emergency running, in which the tread does not rest on the emergency running surface.
  • the introduction of force into the rim in the axial region of the fastening of the side wall of the tire on the rim thus enables reliable driving stability to be achieved in emergency running while retaining the advantages of using an emergency running ring with regard to the convertibility of a vehicle wheel and with regard to the possibility of axially extending the tread so far, how to make sense individually.
  • the emergency run support ring By designing the emergency run support ring from an elastic material with strength members embedded therein, the tire is elastically sprung and damped in an emergency run, in which the tire is supported with its tread area on the emergency run support ring, and thus the driving comfort in emergency run is improved. Due to the strength members, which counteract the centrifugal forces acting on the emergency running support ring, the emergency running support ring also remains largely dimensionally stable even in normal operation and in emergency operation. The emergency run support ring reliably holds its position in the wheel Driving characteristics (straight running, stable cornering) as well as low noise, low vibration remain stable.
  • the advantageous embodiment according to the features of claim 2 allows a secure positive, air-tight fixation of the pneumatic tire on the rim, thereby easily applying both the force in the fig in normal operation of the vehicle wheel without emergency running, in which the tread is not on the emergency running surface rests, as well as in the emergency run by applying force to the rim in the same axial position is particularly reliably guaranteed.
  • the high frictional connection increases the safety reserves and ensures even lateral force build-up.
  • the in its circumferential length - in particular elastic - changeable bead core enables the easy mounting of the bead and thus the tire on the rim equipped with the run-flat support body by moving one bead over the run-flat support surface with a larger bead core diameter than in the attached operating state of the Bead, so that the formation of the emergency running support surfaces can not be designed in accordance with the diameter of the bead core in the fastened operating state and the resulting assembly problems, but primarily optimal emergency running properties.
  • both in terms of the outside diameter and with regard to the axial configuration of the emergency running support ring great freedom is given with regard to the structural design for good emergency running properties.

Arrangement, design, assembly and fastening can thus be individually developed optimally according to the requirements of an optimal emergency operation.
  • the secure fixing of the tire side wall to the rim in the axial edge region becomes the optimum in a simple manner Force transmission for good handling properties in normal operation of the vehicle wheel and at the same time the storage of the emergency running support ring in the axial region of the attachment of the, which is desirable for optimal force transmission for good handling properties in emergency operation Allows sidewall of the tire on the rim surface.

  • the filler ring After inserting the bead into the annular chamber, the filler ring is inserted radially inside the bead axially into the annular chamber, so that between the radially inner ring chamber wall and filler ring, between the filler ring and bead and between the bead and the radially outer ring chamber wall, radial positive locking and between the axially inner annular chamber wall and bead and between Bead and the rim flange forming the axially outer annular chamber wall is produced in each case with an axial positive fit.

If the bead and the filler ring completely fill the annular chamber, a particularly reliable positive connection between the bead and the rim is achieved.
  • the design according to the features of claim 8 is particularly advantageous, since in this way, when driving in emergency running, impacts acting on the tread from the roadway are dampened by deflection of the emergency running support ring, and thus the vehicle wheel can also have favorable comfort properties in emergency running.
  • the emergency running support surface can adapt elastically to the supported running surface, so that the supporting effect is distributed over the ground contact surface of the running surface and is not only punctiform or linear.

Abstract

Roue de véhicule constituée d'une jante, notamment d'une seule pièce, et d'un pneu sans chambre, qui comporte à la surface enveloppe externe radiale de la jante un anneau (11) de roulage à plat. L'anneau présente à sa surface externe radiale une surface de roulage à plat, dont le diamètre externe est supérieur au diamètre maximum de la jante. L'anneau (11), disposé dans la zone axiale de la fixation de la paroi latérale du pneu sur la jante, est constitué notamment d'un matériau élastique auquel sont incorporés des éléments de rigidification.
