Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of wheel hubs, in particular to a lightweight wheel hub. Background Art

[0002] The automobile wheel hub is the intermediate component that fixes the tire and connects the tire to the axle. It is an important part of automobile parts. It is responsible for carrying the weight of the vehicle, transmitting power, supporting the tire, etc., and as a rotating moving part, the wheel hub must meet the technical conditions of light weight, fatigue resistance, and dynamic balance under the premise of having a certain rigidity. With the increasing urgency of energy conservation and emission reduction, automobile lightweighting has become a new direction for the development of the automobile industry. Lightweight design is to optimize the design of the automobile structure to reduce the weight of the automobile under the premise of ensuring that the automobile meets the basic rigidity and strength. The existing authorized patent (Announcement No.: CN214564335U) is a lightweight wheel hub. Although the lightweight wheel hub reduces the weight of the wheel hub, it reduces the energy consumption of the automobile, improves product performance, and reduces production costs.

[0003] However, the bolt holes on the lightweight hub mounting plate lack a sealing and waterproof structure. When the hub is connected to the axle through the mounting plate, the nut is exposed and easily susceptible to moisture and water ingress. Currently, a hub cover is used and installed on the hub through a snap-on structure to protect the nut from rust and waterproofing. The hub cover with a snap-on structure has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble and assemble, but there is a certain probability that the snap-on structure may be pried open and damaged when it is removed. Therefore, in view of the current situation, it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0018] Depend on Figures 1 to 5The utility model comprises a wheel hub 1, triangular hollow spokes 2 and a wheel axle hub 3. The triangular hollow spokes 2 are fixedly connected to the inside of the five wheel hub 1 at equal intervals in an annular manner. The hollow design of the triangular hollow spokes 2 can effectively reduce the weight of the wheel hub. The wheel axle hub 3 is fixedly connected between one ends of the five triangular hollow spokes 2. Bolt holes 4 are opened in an annular manner at equal intervals in the middle of the wheel axle hub 3. A ring opening 6 is opened at one end of the wheel axle hub 3. A clamping rubber ring 7 is installed inside the ring opening 6. A five-pointed star hub cover 5 is installed between the wheel axle hub 3 and one side of the five triangular hollow spokes 2. The five-pointed star hub cover 5 is made of plastic, so as to effectively reduce the weight. Connecting components 8 are provided between the five corners of the five-pointed star hub cover 5 and the five triangular hollow spokes 2; the five connecting components 8 each comprise a pair of sliding rods 9. The pair of sliding rods 9 are installed on the inner sides of the five corners of the five-pointed star hub cover 5 and are located in the middle of the triangular hollow spokes 2. A T-shaped sliding rod is slidably installed between the pair of sliding rods 9. Block 10, a hook mouth 11 is fixedly connected in the middle of one end of the T-shaped slider 10, and a groove 12 is provided at one end of the middle part of the triangular hollow spoke 2, and the hook end of the hook mouth 11 is movably inserted in the inside of the groove 12, so that it can be effectively fixed; the middle part of the inner side of the five corners of the five-pointed star hub cover 5 is provided with a mounting groove 13, and a cylindrical block 14 is slidably installed on the upper part of the mounting groove 13, and the cylindrical block 14 is provided with an arc groove 15 on one side of the hook mouth 11, and a connecting pin 16 is fixedly connected inside the arc groove 15, and a connecting rod 17 is rotatably connected to the surface of the connecting pin 16, and the top of the connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the hook mouth 11, and a corrugated sleeve 18 is fixedly connected between the bottom of the cylindrical block 14 and the bottom of the mounting groove 13, and a spring 19 is provided inside the corrugated sleeve 18, and the two ends of the spring 19 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylindrical block 14 and the bottom of the mounting groove 13, so that the hook mouth 11 can be effectively connected to the inside of the groove 12;

[0019] Through the elastic force of the spring 19, the cylindrical block 14 can be stably located at the upper part of the installation groove 13, so that the connecting rod 17 pushes the hook mouth 11 to be stably inserted into the inside of the groove 12, so that the five-pointed star hub cover 5 can be stably installed between the wheel axle hub 3 and the five triangular hollow spokes 2. At the same time, when the five-pointed star hub cover 5 is installed, the middle part of the five-pointed star hub cover 5 will be sleeved on one end of the wheel axle hub 3, and at the same time, the clamping rubber ring 7 will be squeezed to play a sealing and protective role.

The rotation of the cylindrical block 14 will drive the stopper 21 to rotate, so that the stopper 21 rotates to the passage in the middle of the inverted U-shaped through groove 20, and the rotation of the cylindrical block 14 will drive the corrugated sleeve 18 and the spring 19 to be tightened, and then the cylindrical block 14 is pressed down, so that the cylindrical block 14 drives the stopper 21 to move to the lower part of the inverted U-shaped through groove 20 and compress the tightened corrugated sleeve 18 and spring 19, and then the cylindrical block 14 is rotated in the opposite direction, so that the cylindrical block 14 drives the stopper 21 to stably snap into the notch at the lower part of the inverted U-shaped through groove 20;

[0022] The rotation of the cylindrical block 14 will not drive the connecting rod 17 to rotate through the arc groove 15 and the connecting pin 16, but the downward movement of the cylindrical block 14 will drive the connecting rod 17 to move downward, and the downward movement of the connecting rod 17 will drive the hook mouth 11 and the T-shaped slider 10 to move downward, so that the hook mouth 11 is withdrawn from the inside of the groove 12 and the T-shaped slider 10 slides downward on the surface of a pair of slide rods 9; then the five-pointed star hub cover 5 can be disassembled.

[0023] The lightweight wheel hub has an effective protective structure, which can seal, shield and protect the connected bolt holes, and effectively make the bolt holes waterproof, moisture-proof and rust-proof. At the same time, the lightweight wheel hub cover avoids the disassembly and assembly damage caused by the use of a snap-on structure, effectively prolonging the service life of the wheel hub cover. In addition, the lightweight wheel hub has a simple structural design, is convenient and easy to use and operate, and is stable and reliable to install and protect. Its performance can meet people's usage needs.
