Description

Technical Field

[0002] In vehicles, spare tires are usually used in emergencies and stored in the trunk or bottom of the vehicle. When the main tire is damaged, the driver needs to stop the car to replace it. However, this spare tire is idle in most cases, and its space and weight resources are not fully utilized. At the same time, for some special-purpose vehicles, such as amphibious vehicles such as floating vehicles on water, higher requirements are placed on propulsion capabilities in specific environments (such as waters). In summary, the defects of the prior art are: 1. Traditional spare tires are idle in most cases, and their space and weight resources are not fully utilized; 2. Traditional spare tires cannot provide vehicles with propulsion capabilities in specific environments (such as waters).

[0003] The prior art has a technology named "spare tire installation structure" and a publication (announcement) number "CN102470895A", in which the rim width (1) between the inner rim collar (17a) and the outer rim collar (18a) of the spare tire wheel (11) is substantially equal to the general total height (h1) of the tire body (12) placed substantially horizontally. The inner rim collar (17a) and the outer rim collar (18a) are respectively arranged on the inner drum part (17) and the outer drum part (18), and the inner drum part (17) and the outer drum part (18) are joined at a joint (19).

The wheel crack promotion member (20) protrudes from the rear surface (6a) of the rear cross member toward the spare tire installation area (9), and its acute angle end (20a) faces the inner drum part (17). When the spare wheel (11) is broken by the rear cross member (6) at the joint (19), the wheel breakage promoting member (20) easily deforms the inner drum part (17). However, this technology does not involve the technical problems and technical solutions of the present application. Summary of the invention

A driving motor is arranged at one end of the coupling, and the connecting component connects the upper positioning part and the lower positioning part. The connecting component is clamped at the other end of the coupling. The screw moves through the lower positioning part.

The wheel hub is used to install the tire, and the propulsion propeller is connected to the driving motor. When the driving motor is controlled to rotate, the driving motor can drive the propulsion propeller to rotate. In this way, when the amphibious vehicle needs to travel on land, the control screw is rotated in one direction, and the screw drives the coupling to rise to the highest position, then the spare tire / navigation propulsion device rises to the highest position, will not touch the ground, and will not affect the vehicle's land travel. The wheel hub and the tire are connected to form a tire, and the tire is connected to the driving motor through the wheel hub, so that the tire and the switching device are fixedly connected, and it can be easily connected and disassembled, and used as a spare tire. When the amphibious vehicle needs to travel on the water, the control screw is rotated in another direction, and the screw drives the coupling to drop to the lowest position, then the spare tire / navigation propulsion device drops below the water surface, and then the control drive motor is started, and the driving motor drives the propulsion propeller to rotate, generating power, and realizing the vehicle's water surface travel propulsion. In the structure of the present invention, the vehicle body is connected to the switching device, and the switching device drives the coupling to move up and down relative to the screw through the servo motor, one end of the coupling is connected to the driving motor by bolts, and the front end of the driving motor is connected to the tire by bolts, and the propulsion propeller is located inside the tire and fixedly connected to the end of the driving motor shaft. When an amphibious vehicle enters the water, the switching device controls the spare tire to the lowest point through the servo motor to ensure that the spare tire is immersed in the water, and drives the propulsion propeller to rotate through the drive motor to provide additional propulsion force for the vehicle. Compared with the background technology, the structure of the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. When an amphibious vehicle is traveling on the water, the switching device and the removable spare tire both increase the rearward tilt angle of the amphibious vehicle in the water and reduce water resistance, thereby improving the passability of the amphibious vehicle in the water. 2. When the amphibious vehicle is traveling on land, the servo motor in the switching device lifts the connecting piece to the highest point through the screw rod. If there is a sudden damage to the wheel, the spare tire can be removed and replaced with the required tire. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
