TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of tire technology, in particular to an n+2 cavity mechanical bionic buffer air cavity hollow tire and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of shared bicycles and shared electric vehicles, the market's requirements for vehicle durability and maintenance costs are increasing, and non-pneumatic tires are therefore receiving increasing attention. One of the core challenges faced by shared bicycle and shared electric vehicle operations is high tire maintenance costs. Although pneumatic tires have the advantages of light weight, small rolling resistance, good cushioning performance, etc. At the same time, they also have fatal shortcomings such as easy air leakage, easy tire burst, not resistant to puncture, frequent maintenance requirements, etc. The main advantage of non-pneumatic tires is that they do not need to be inflated, and only use the tire's own materials and structure to achieve support and cushioning performance, with the advantages of not being afraid of being punctured, good elasticity, wear resistance, small rolling resistance, etc. The service life is more than 3 times that of pneumatic tires, and is becoming an important development direction of the industry. It is estimated that in the next five years, the demand for non-pneumatic tires in the shared travel field will grow at an average annual rate of more than 15%. However, non-pneumatic tires are generally not as good as pneumatic tires in terms of shock absorption and comfort. In particular, in the field of shared electric vehicles, the vehicle weight and speed are higher, and the reliability and safety of non-pneumatic tires are also subject to stricter requirements.
[0003] To ensure load-bearing performance, existing non-pneumatic tires often use denser support structures, resulting in increased weight, and cushioning is mainly dependent on material deformation. At high speeds or on bumpy roads, the cushioning effect is not as good as that of pneumatic tires, affecting vehicle range and riding experience. For example, solid tires are not accepted by the market due to their poor comfort, heavy weight, and durability; using a sponge foamed inner tire body is relatively soft, so it deforms a lot during use, generates a lot of heat, and the heat at the center of the inner tire body is not easily dissipated, which can exceed the material's temperature limit due to heat accumulation, causing the molecular chain to break and the tire to be damaged. Hollow tires have different internal structures, and the thickness, shape, hardness, etc. of the materials in each part have a great impact on tire performance. For example, when the thickness is thin, comfort is improved, but load capacity is reduced; when the hardness is increased, load capacity is increased, but comfort is reduced, and it is also prone to cracking. Therefore, the number and size of the internal structures need to be set through comprehensive evaluation of various aspects, such as tire and rim specifications, customer requirements for tire size, etc. to invent a product that meets customer needs.
[0004] A Y-shaped support structure maintenance-free hollow tire and its preparation method are disclosed in Chinese invention patent (publication number: 120439713A, publication date: 2025-08-08). A Y-shaped support structure maintenance-free hollow tire is prepared, which includes an outer contour, an inner hole, a support structure, an air inlet hole, and a vent hole. The support structure is located between the inner holes, the air inlet hole is arranged at the top of the hollow tire and communicates with the inner holes, and the vent hole is arranged inside the support structure between the inner holes. By adjusting the size and position of each part of the hollow tire internal cavity structure during preparation, both good comfort and high tire body strength can be maintained.
[0005] Mechanical bionics is an important branch of bionics, which draws inspiration from biology, studies the relationship between the macro / micro structure of living organisms and their mechanical properties, and applies these mechanical principles to the design and innovation of engineering structures. It is not just a simulation of shape, but also a deep reference to the efficient and energy-saving mechanical principles of biological systems, aiming to solve engineering problems such as "how to achieve optimal mechanical properties with the least amount of material". In the design of multi-cavity hollow tires, bionic patterns can provide direct geometric models for design, guiding the design of tire body internal structures with light weight, high load capacity, and good cushioning performance. The Reuleaux triangle has a triangular main frame with three corners that are smoothly transitioned. It is a closed curve formed by drawing arcs with the vertices of the equilateral triangle as the center and the side length as the radius, combining the stability of the triangle and the smoothness of the circle. The culvert arch can generate horizontal thrust under vertical load, thereby achieving the downward and outward dispersion of pressure, showing good mechanical load-bearing performance. The semispherical surface and longitudinal lines of the chestnut shell form a typical thin shell structure that can evenly distribute external pressure to the entire surface, avoiding local stress concentration. This uniform curvature achieves the "soft overcomes hard" load-bearing effect through geometric curvature.
[0006] A non-inflatable hollow structure has been designed and developed, which can not only highly simulate the elasticity and strength performance of inflatable tires, but also form an effective mechanical dispersion system to reduce tire load and stress concentration during use, providing users with good driving comfort while extending the service life of the tire. It has become a top priority in the field of non-inflatable tires. SUMMARY

15. A method for preparing an empty tire in an n+2 cavity biomimetic buffer air cavity, comprising the following steps: 1) Extrusion molding: The compounded rubber is extruded through an extruder with an inner die and an outer die to obtain a long strip of semi-finished tire tube; 2) Cutting: Cut the long strip of semi-finished tire tube obtained in step 1) to the set length; 3) Butt joint: The cut long strip semi-finished tire tubes are pressure-jointed together using a heat joint machine to form a ring-shaped semi-finished product; 4) Vulcanization: The annular semi-finished product is placed into the mold cavity to obtain a hollow tire.
