[0015] Example 1
[0016] like Figure 1-4As shown, this embodiment provides an engineering tire run-flat device, including a plurality of support components 1, which are connected into a circle by elastic connectors and sleeved on the outer circumference of the rim 11; the support component 1 includes an aluminum alloy bottom plate 2 and a support plate 4, one end of the bottom plate 2 is provided with a protrusion 3; a rotating shaft 5 is provided at one end of the support plate 4 corresponding to the protrusion 3, and a rotating shaft sleeve 6 is provided at a position corresponding to the rotating shaft 5 on the protrusion 3, and the rotating shaft sleeve 6 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 5, so that the support plate 4 is hinged on the protrusion 3; between the support plate 4 and the bottom plate 2 A matching electromagnetic lock is provided, and a first spring is fixed between the support plate 4 and the bottom plate 2; a first pressure sensor, a second pressure sensor, a battery and a numerical control module group are provided inside the bottom plate 2, and the electromagnetic lock, the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor are respectively connected to the battery wires, and the electromagnetic lock, the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor are also respectively connected to the numerical control module group wires; when the support plate 4 is pressed on the bottom plate 2, the electromagnetic lock is in a locked state and the first spring is in a compressed state; a support plate 4 locking mechanism is also provided on the bottom plate 2. The electromagnetic lock can adopt an existing electromagnetic lock structure, and its principle is to supply power to the coil, and the coil will generate magnetic force after generating current, and absorb the matching magnet, thereby playing the role of a lock, and its specific structure will not be repeated here.
[0017] The protrusion 3 is provided with a groove 7, and the locking mechanism of the support plate 4 includes a plurality of positioning pins 8. A second spring 9 is fixedly provided at one end of the positioning pin 8, and the other end abuts against the rotating shaft 5. The other end of the second spring 9 is fixed in the groove 7 and the second spring 9 is in a compressed state; a through hole is provided at a position of the rotating shaft 5 corresponding to the positioning pin 8, and when the support plate 4 is in a locked state, the positioning pin 8 cannot pass through the through hole; when the rotating shaft 5 rotates, the positioning pin 8 passes through the through hole under the action of the second spring 9.
[0018] Working principle:
[0019] The number of supporting components 1 is selected appropriately according to the size of the rim 11, and they are connected into a circle with elastic connectors and then sleeved on the rim 11, so that the entire device is tightly clamped on the rim 11 and located in the cavity between the rim 11 and the tire (tubeless).
[0020] Then, the maximum threshold of the feedback pressure value of the first pressure sensor and the minimum threshold of the feedback pressure value of the second pressure sensor are set by the numerical control module group. After the device is tightly clamped on the rim 11, the tire is assembled on the rim 11. The normal state of the magnetic lock is that the magnetic force adsorption makes the support plate 4 cover the bottom plate 2, so that the first spring is in a compressed state.
[0021] The tire is inflated. When the pressure value in the tire reaches the highest threshold of the first pressure sensor, the numerical control module group receives the signal of the first pressure sensor and then controls the second pressure sensor to be turned on. When the pressure value detected by the second pressure sensor is higher than its lowest threshold, it indicates that the pressure in the tire is normal and no air leakage or tire blowout occurs; otherwise, it indicates that the tire has air leakage or tire blowout. At this time, the numerical control module group receives the signal of the first pressure sensor and then stops supplying power to the electromagnetic lock, so that the adsorption force of the electromagnetic lock on the bottom plate 2 and the support plate 4 disappears, and the support plate 4 bounces up under the elastic force of the first spring. At the same time, the rotating shaft 5 at the hinged end of the support plate 4 rotates, causing the perforation on the rotating shaft 5 to rotate accordingly. When the perforation rotates to a certain angle, the positioning pin 8 compressed in the groove 7 by the rotating shaft 5 and the protrusion 3 can pass through the perforation under the elastic force of the second spring 9 and extend out of the rotating shaft 5 and under the support plate 4 to resist the support plate 4, so that the support plate 4 cannot be stressed and returns to the state of covering the bottom plate 2.
[0022] Generally, a deflated tire will continue to sink too much due to insufficient air pressure, causing the vehicle body to lose control or crush the tire and rim 11, resulting in more serious consequences. However, after the device of this embodiment is installed on the rim 11, the support plate 4 bounces up, which can provide good support for the tire, and the tire sinking amount does not exceed 20% of the normal value, the vehicle body will not lose control, and the accident vehicle can be smoothly driven to the maintenance area for inspection.
[0023] Example 2
[0024] On the basis of Example 1, the elastic connecting member adopts a third spring 10, and hooks are respectively arranged on both sides of one end of the protrusion 3 of the bottom plate 2, and the two ends of the third spring 10 are respectively hung on the hooks of two adjacent supporting components 1.
[0025] When in use, several support components 1 are first connected into a line by the third spring 10, and then put on the outer circumference of the rim 11, and finally the first two support components 1 are connected by the third spring 10. Since each support component 1 is independent, the number of appropriate support components 1 can be selected according to the actual needs such as the size of the rim 11, and a damaged support component 1 can be replaced separately, which is convenient to operate.
[0026] Example 3
[0027] On the basis of Embodiment 1, an operation display screen is provided on the bottom plate 2 to adjust the highest threshold value of the first pressure sensor and the lowest threshold value of the second pressure sensor to adapt to different tire pressures.
