Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tire manufacturing technology, and in particular to a positioning adjustment device. Background Technology

[0002] Current tires are chemically synthesized from steel cords, fabric, natural rubber, and various polymers. During high-speed driving, the driver's perception of the outside world is transmitted through vehicle components. As components in direct contact with the road surface, tire safety directly determines driver safety. Smart tires, in particular, refer to tires that are no longer simply rubber composites on the vehicle, but rather establish communication between the vehicle's internal data and external users through a control system. Current smart tires typically attach sensor chips to the tire's inner cavity, using adhesives to bond the sensors to the tire's inner wall. However, sensors often do not last as long as the tire itself. During the bonding process, to prevent the sensors from detaching, the oil film on the tire's inner wall is usually ground down, leading to damage to the tire's airtight layer.

[0003] Therefore, there is currently a problem where sensors attached to the inner wall of the tire result in poor tire air retention. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a positioning adjustment device to solve the problem of poor tire air retention caused by sensors being directly attached to the inner wall of the tire.

[0005] On one hand, the present invention provides a positioning adjustment device, comprising:

[0006] Mounting components are used to embed multiple sensors of the sensor assembly into the tire cavity;

[0007] Positioning elements are used to pre-position each sensor of the sensor assembly within the tire cavity;

[0008] The adjustment component is connected to the mounting piece at one end and to the tire bead at the other end to adjust the position of the mounting piece relative to the tire's inner cavity.

[0009] In some embodiments, the regulating component includes:

[0010] A sliding member that connects to the tire bead for mounting on the tire bead;

[0011] A rotating component, connected between the sliding component and the mounting component, to rotate the mounting component.

[0012] In some embodiments, the positioning element has multiple slots arranged in a Y-array along the tire's axial direction, with the openings of the multiple slots facing the same direction. The slots are used to pre-position the sensors in the tire's inner cavity in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0013] In some embodiments, it also includes:

[0014] Film used to deliver sensor assemblies into the inner cavity of the tire.

[0015] In some embodiments, the regulating component further includes:

[0016] A locking element, one end of which is connected to the sliding member, and the other end of which is used to connect to the tire bead, so as to lock the sliding member to the tire bead.

[0017] In some embodiments, the sliding member includes:

[0018] A slide rail extends along the circumferential direction L of the tire bead and connects to the end of the locking member away from the tire bead.

[0019] The slip ring is slidably disposed within the slide rail and located on the side of the slide rail away from the locking element.

[0020] In some embodiments, the rotating member includes:

[0021] The connecting rod connects to the end of the slip ring furthest from the slide rail;

[0022] A pivot pin connects the connecting rod to the mounting component.

[0023] In some embodiments, when the mounting device embeds the sensor into the tire cavity, the sensor assembly is arranged at circumferential L-spaces within the tire cavity.

[0024] In some embodiments, when the mounting device embeds the sensor into the tire cavity, the included angle between any two adjacent sets of sensor assemblies about the radial direction R of the tire is 60°.

[0025] In some embodiments, when the mounting device embeds the sensor into the tire cavity, in any set of sensor assemblies, the sensors are arranged at Y-intervals along the tire's axial direction within the tire cavity.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The positioning and adjustment device of the present invention has an mounting component for embedding multiple sensors of the sensor assembly into the tire cavity, a positioning component for pre-positioning each sensor of the sensor assembly in the tire cavity, and an adjustment component with one end connected to the mounting component and the other end connected to the tire bead to adjust the position of the mounting component relative to the tire cavity. This allows for quick positioning of the array position of multiple sensors in the tire cavity and precise embedding of the sensors in the array position of the tire cavity. As a result, the sensors are directly attached to the tire cavity without the need to grind the tire inner wall, thus ensuring tire airtightness. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] As mentioned in the background section, current tire-embedded sensor devices can solve the problem of poor tire air retention caused by grinding the tire's inner wall when the sensor is bonded to it. Secondly, the sensor's attachment to the tire's inner cavity makes the overall tire appearance unsatisfactory.

[0038] To solve the above problems, refer to Figures 1 to 8This invention provides a positioning adjustment device, including a mounting member 100, a positioning member 200, and an adjustment assembly 300. The mounting member 100 is used to embed an array of multiple sensors 5 of a sensor assembly 4 into the tire cavity 2, and the mounting member 100 can extend into the tire cavity 2. The positioning member 200 is used to pre-position each sensor 5 of the sensor assembly 4 to embed the sensor 5 into the tire cavity 2. One end of the adjustment assembly 300 is connected to the mounting member 100, and the other end is used to connect to the tire bead 3 to adjust the position of the mounting member 100 in the tire cavity 2. This positioning adjustment device of the present invention is used to embed the sensor 5 array into the tire cavity 2. The positioning component 200 can precisely pre-position the array position of multiple sensors 5 in the sensor assembly 4. By adjusting the state of the adjustment component 300 itself, the position of the adjustment component 300 relative to the tire bead 3 and the mounting component 100 can be changed, thereby adjusting the mounting component 100. This allows for the rapid positioning of the array position of multiple sensors 5 in the sensor assembly 4, and the precise embedding of multiple sensors 5 into the array position of the tire inner cavity 2. Thus, all sensors 5 are directly embedded in the tire inner cavity 2 without the need to grind the inner wall of the tire, ensuring tire air tightness.

[0039] In some of these embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the positioning member 200 includes a clamping plate, which is arranged along the axial direction Y of the tire 1. That is, when the clamping plate is disposed in the inner cavity 2 of the tire, the clamping plate is arranged opposite to the inner cavity 2 of the tire along the axial direction Y. The positioning member 200, i.e., the clamping plate, has a plurality of slots 210, which are arranged in an array along the length direction of the clamping plate. The openings of the plurality of slots 210 have the same orientation, wherein the opening orientation of the slots 210 intersects and / or perpendicularly intersects the length direction of the clamping plate. The slots 210 are used to pre-position the sensors 5 of the sensor assembly 4 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0040] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the invention, multiple slots 210 are evenly arrayed along the length of the positioning member 200, i.e., the card plate. Each slot 210 is used to accommodate a sensor 5 for pre-positioning the corresponding sensor 5. Specifically, by placing the card plate along the axial direction Y of the tire 1 in the tire cavity 2 and attaching the card plate to the inner wall of the tire cavity 2, each slot 210 of the card plate reserves space on the corresponding inner wall of the tire cavity 2 and serves as a receiving slot for the sensor 5. Since multiple slots 210 are evenly arranged on the card plate along the length of the card plate, the card plate can achieve pre-positioning when arranging multiple sensor 5 arrays of each group of sensor assembly 4 in the tire cavity 2. When the position of the card plate in the tire cavity 2 is changed while keeping the card plate along the axial direction Y and also attaching the card plate to the inner wall of the tire cavity 2, the card plate can achieve the purpose of pre-positioning multiple sensor 5 arrays of other groups of sensor assembly 4 in the tire cavity 2.

[0041] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5, the positioning adjustment device of the present invention further includes a film 400. The film 400 is used to extend and lay on the tire cavity 2 to provide sensor assemblies 4 to the tire cavity 2, wherein multiple sensor assemblies 4 are arranged in an array on the film 400. In a specific embodiment, when selecting the substrate of the film 400, a rubber structure that is compatible with the substrate of the sensor 5 and the tire cavity 2 can be selected as the film 400 so that the film 400 can properly adhere the sensor 5. When the film 400 is extended and laid on the tire cavity 2, the film 400 is used to provide sensor assemblies 4 to the tire cavity 2. Each group of sensor assemblies 4 has multiple arrayed sensors 5, and the film 400 is used to better fit the sensor 5 array to the tire cavity 2. Based on the film 400 and the arrayed sensor assemblies 4 provided by it, a positioning member 200, i.e., a clamping plate, is used to determine the array position of the multiple sensors 5 of the sensor assembly 4. The positioning component 200, also known as the card plate, is determined according to the number of arrays of the sensors 5, and can quickly realize the array arrangement of all sensors 5.

[0042] In some of these embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 As shown, the adjusting assembly 300 includes a sliding member 310 and a rotating member 320. The sliding member 310 is used to connect the tire bead 3, wherein the sliding member 310 can be locked to the tire bead 3, the sliding member 310 can be fixed to the tire bead 3, and the sliding member 310 can also move and generate displacement along the circumferential direction L of the tire bead 3; the rotating member 320 is connected between the sliding member 310 and the mounting member 100, one end of the rotating member 320 is rotatably connected to the sliding member 310, and the other end is rotatably connected to the mounting member 100. Through the design of the rotating member 320, the sliding member 310 drives the mounting member 100 to move through the rotation of the rotating member 320, and the rotating member 320 plays a role in power transmission.

[0043] In some of these embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the adjusting assembly 300 also includes a locking member 330. The locking member 330 is used to connect between the tire bead 3 and the sliding member 310; that is, one end of the locking member 330 is connected to the tire bead 3, and the other end is connected to the sliding member 310, to lock the sliding member 310 to the tire bead 3. In some embodiments, the locking member 330 is a locking clip. Figure 6As shown, by placing the adjusting component 300 on the tire bead 3, the outer extension of the adjusting component 300 and the bead position of the tire bead 3 are fixedly locked together by the locking member 330. The bead position of the tire bead 3, also known as the tire toe or toe opening, is the tip part of the inner side of the tire bead 3, which is the part around the bead wire ring, and will not be described in detail below. Specifically, a locking clip is designed below the sliding member 310 of the adjusting component 300. After the adjusting component 300 is placed on the tire bead 3, the locking member 330 is used to reinforce it so that the adjusting component 300 does not fall off the tire bead 3.

[0044] In some of these embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 As shown, the sliding member 310 includes a slide rail 311 and a slip ring 312, which are connected to each other. The slide rail 311 extends along the circumferential direction L of the tire bead 3 and is connected to the end of the locking member 330 away from the tire bead 3. The slip ring 312 is slidably disposed within the slide rail 311 and is located at the end of the slide rail 311 away from the locking member 330. Thus, the slip ring 312 can slide along the circumferential direction L within the slide rail 311.

[0045] In some of these embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 7 As shown, the rotating component 320 includes a connecting rod 321 and a pivot pin 322, which are connected to each other. The connecting rod 321 connects to the side of the slip ring 312 away from the slide rail 311. Specifically, one end of the connecting rod 321 is connected to the slip ring 312, and the other end is rotatably connected to the pivot pin 322. The pivot pin 322 is connected between the connecting rod 321 and the mounting component 100, that is, the pivot pin 322 is rotatably connected to both the connecting rod 321 and the mounting component 100.

[0046] In some embodiments, when the mounting component 100 embeds the sensor 5 into the tire cavity 2, multiple sets of sensor components 4 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction L of the tire rim 3 in the tire cavity 2, that is, around the radial direction R of the tire 1, and the multiple sets of sensor components 4 are arranged in an array in the tire cavity 2.

[0047] And / or, in some of these embodiments, such as Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when the mounting component 100 embeds the sensor 5 into the tire cavity 2, each set of sensor components 4 extends along the axial direction Y of the tire 1, and the sensors 5 of each set of sensor components 4 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction Y of the tire 1 in the tire cavity 2 or on the tire inner wall.

[0048] And / or, in some of these embodiments, such as Figure 7As shown, when the mounting component 100 embeds the sensor 5 into the tire cavity 2, the included angle between any two adjacent sets of sensor assemblies 4 located in the tire cavity 2 around the radial direction R of the tire 1 is 60°. This is equivalent to having a total of six sets of sensor assemblies 4 inside the tire cavity 2 around the radial direction R, with the included angle between any two adjacent sets of sensor assemblies 4 being 60°.

[0049] In specific embodiments, based on the designed sensor array arrangement, by adjusting the position of the slip ring 312 in the slide rail 311, a 6×6 array can be designed in some embodiments. Each group of sensor components 4 has six sensors 5, and adjacent sensors 5 in the same group of sensor components 4 are evenly spaced. A total of six groups of sensor components 4 are evenly arranged around the radial direction R inside the tire cavity 2. The slip ring 312 is locked to the slide rail 311 by the locking member 330. Through the rotational cooperation of the connecting rod 321 and the pivot pin 322, the final mounting part 100 is placed at the 0° position. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, multiple sensor arrays 5 are attached to the inner cavity 2 of the tire.

[0050] It needs to be further explained that, since the sliding member 310 is placed in the tire bead 3, the outer extension of the sliding member 310 and the bottom of the tire bead 3 are locked and connected by the locking member 330. The lower part of the slide 311 of the sliding member 310 is designed with the locking member 330, which is specifically a locking clip. The adjusting component 300 is placed in the tire bead 3, and the locking clip is used to reinforce the adjusting component 300 so that the adjusting component 300 does not fall off the tire bead 3. Since the angle of the slip ring 312 relative to the slide rail 311 is adjustable, and the 6×6 array used in this specific embodiment of the invention divides the tire cavity 2 into 6 equal parts around the radial direction R within the circumference of the tire cavity 2, the slip ring 312 moves along the slide rail 311 to the 60°, 120°, 180°, 240°, 300° and 0° positions respectively and locks in place. The sensor 5 array is attached to the tire cavity 2, so the sensors 5 within the entire circumference of the tire cavity 2 are attached in an array.

[0051] In some embodiments, since the substrate of the sensor 5 is a foreign object relative to the tire 1, a hot-curing adhesive layer is provided on the outer peripheral surface of each sensor 5 in the sensor assembly 4. Specifically, the outer peripheral surface of each sensor 5 is coated with hot-curing adhesive, so that the outer surface substrate of the sensor 5 is consistent with or close to the substrate of the tire 1, which can ensure a tight bond between the sensor 5 and the tire 1. Correspondingly, the substrate of the outer peripheral surface of the film 400 can also be selected as hot-curing adhesive.

[0052] Furthermore, by placing the tire 1 with the embedded array of sensors 5 into a vulcanizing machine and performing vulcanization molding, the molding and vulcanization of the embedded strain sensor array is finally achieved.

[0053] In the positioning and adjustment device of this invention, the positioning component 200, i.e., the clamping plate, is designed with multiple slots 210 arranged in an array along the axial direction Y of the tire 1. The openings of the multiple slots 210 face the same direction. The slots 210 are used to accommodate the sensors 5 one by one. Thus, the clamping plate can accurately pre-position the array position of the multiple sensors 5 of the sensor assembly 4, thereby quickly positioning the array position of each sensor 5 of the sensor assembly 4. By adjusting the state of the adjustment component 300 itself, specifically adjusting the sliding component 310 to be locked or sliding relative to the tire bead 3 in the circumferential L direction, and adjusting the angle of the slip ring 312 relative to the slide rail 311 around the radial direction R, the position state of the adjustment component 300 relative to the tire bead 3 and the mounting component 100 changes. The adjustment component 300 can adjust the angle of the mounting component 100 around the radial direction R, so that the multiple sensors 5 can be accurately embedded in the array position of the tire cavity 2. Thus, the multiple sensors 5 are directly attached to the tire cavity 2 without grinding the tire inner wall, which can ensure the tire airtightness.

[0054] The present invention also provides a method of using a positioning adjustment device, the method of using the positioning adjustment device as described in any of the preceding claims comprising:

[0055] Step 100: Provide sensor assembly 4 to tire cavity 2, place positioning member 200 in tire cavity 2, and position the array position of sensor 5 of sensor assembly 4.

[0056] In step 100, a film 400 is selected, specifically a rubber structure that is compatible with the substrate of the sensor 5 and the tire cavity 2. The film 400 is spread out and laid in the tire cavity 2, providing sensor assemblies 4 to the tire cavity 2. Each sensor assembly 4 has multiple sensors 5 arranged in an array, allowing the film 400 to better fit the sensors 5 into the tire cavity 2. Based on the film 400 and the array of sensor assemblies 4 it provides, a positioning element 200, i.e., a clamping plate, is used to position the array of multiple sensors 5 in the sensor assembly 4. The selection of the positioning element 200, i.e., the clamping plate, depends on the number of sensors 5 in the array design, enabling rapid array arrangement of the sensors 5.

[0057] In step 100, the card plate is placed in the inner cavity 2 of the tire along the axial direction Y of the tire 1, and the card plate is attached to the inner wall of the inner cavity 2. Each slot 210 of the card plate reserves space on the inner wall of the corresponding inner cavity 2 as a receiving slot for the sensor 5. Since multiple slots 210 are evenly arranged on the card plate along the length direction of the card plate, the card plate can arrange multiple sensor 5 arrays of each group of sensor assembly 4 in the predetermined position when the inner cavity 2 is filled. The position of the card plate in the inner cavity 2 is changed one by one while keeping the card plate set along the axial direction Y. Similarly, the card plate is attached to the inner wall of the inner cavity 2. The card plate can arrange multiple sensor 5 arrays of other groups of sensor assembly 4 in the predetermined position of the inner cavity 2.

[0058] Step 200: Adjust the position of the mounting piece 100 by adjusting the adjustment component 300, and attach the sensor 5 array of the sensor assembly 4 into the tire cavity 2;

[0059] In step 200, in some embodiments, a 6×6 array is used as an example. Based on the designed sensor array arrangement, the position of the slip ring 312 in the slide rail 311 is adjusted. Each group of sensor components 4 has six sensors 5, and adjacent sensors 5 in each group of sensor components 4 are evenly spaced. Furthermore, six groups of sensor components 4 are evenly arranged around the radial direction R inside the tire cavity 2. First, the sliding member 310 is fixed at the 0° position using the locking member 330. The slip ring 312 is then locked to the slide rail 311 using the locking member 330. Through the cooperation of the connecting rod 321 and the pivot pin 322, the mounting member 100 is placed at the 0° position. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the sensor array 5 is attached to the inner cavity 2 of the tire.

[0060] In step 200, the above steps are repeated. The sliding member 310 is placed in the tire bead 3. The outer extension of the sliding member 310 is fixed and locked to the bead 3 by the locking member 330. Specifically, a locking clip is designed at the lower part of the slide rail 311. After the adjusting component 300 is placed in the tire bead 3, it is reinforced by the locking clip to prevent the adjusting component 300 from falling off the tire bead 3. Next, the angle of the slip ring 312 relative to the slide rail 311 is adjusted. Since a 6×6 array is used in this specific embodiment, the tire cavity 2 is divided into 6 equal parts around the radial direction R in the circumference of the tire cavity 2. The slip ring 312 is moved along the slide rail 311 to the 60° position and locked. The operation is repeated until the sensor 5 is arrayed and attached to the tire cavity 2. This process is repeated until the sensor 5 is arrayed and attached to the entire circumference of the tire cavity 2.

[0061] The method of using the positioning adjustment device provided by the present invention involves selecting a film 400, spreading the film 400 and laying it in the tire cavity 2, and providing a sensor assembly 4 to the tire cavity 2. The sensor assembly 4 has multiple sensors 5 arranged in an array. The film 400 can better make the sensor 5 array fit into the tire cavity 2. Furthermore, the positioning member 200, i.e., the clamping plate, can position the array position of the multiple sensors 5 of the sensor assembly 4, and the array arrangement of the sensors 5 can be quickly realized. Then, by adjusting the adjustment component 300, specifically adjusting the angular position of the sliding component 310 on the tire bead 3 around the radial direction R, and by adjusting the rotating component 320, adjusting the angular position of the mounting component 100 within the tire cavity 2 around the radial direction R, the position of the mounting component 100 can be precisely adjusted. The tire cavity 2 is divided equally around the circumference of the tire cavity 2 around the radial direction R. The slip ring 312 moves along the slide 311 to a certain angle and is locked by the locking component 330. The operation is repeated until the sensor array of the sensor assembly 4 is attached to the tire cavity 2. Therefore, multiple sensors 5 can be precisely arrayed and embedded in the tire cavity 2. Thus, the sensors 5 are directly attached to the tire cavity 2, which can directly ensure the tire air tightness. This avoids the phenomenon that the tire inner wall needs to be ground to prevent damage to the tire air tightness layer when the existing sensors are attached to the tire cavity 2.
