[0002] The wheel hub is a metal component that supports the tire's inner profile. It is divided into two categories based on the material: steel wheel hub and aluminum alloy wheel hub. Aluminum alloy wheel hubs have the advantages of light weight, high manufacturing precision, high strength, low inertial resistance, strong heat dissipation ability and beautiful appearance, but have disadvantages such as high manufacturing cost and poor durability. Especially when used as a wheel core drive system or a hub drive system, the wheel hub usually adopts a cup-shaped structure, which will bring higher manufacturing costs in order to meet and achieve the requirements of reliability, bending moment resistance and strength. Steel wheel hubs have the advantages of meeting and achieving the requirements of reliability, bending moment resistance and strength at a lower cost, and are not easily deformed by impact loads and have strong durability.
[0003] Therefore, please refer to the Chinese utility model patent application number 2024205961199.

While ensuring the structural strength, the weight is greatly reduced to meet the lightweight design requirements and have better anti-collision performance.
[0004] However, the applicant found in production that each spoke or spoke plate must be welded in sequence, and the inner and outer ends need to be welded to the hub and rim respectively. Not only does it involve many welding steps and low production efficiency, but it is also extremely difficult to ensure the coaxiality of the hub and rim after welding, resulting in an extremely low yield rate. In addition, the above-mentioned combined steel hub has many and scattered welding points, which leads to the problem of difficult baking paint process.

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a combined steel wheel hub that is easy to ensure high processing accuracy mainly includes a wheel hub 1, a rim 2 and a spoke 3. The wheel hub 1, the rim 2 and the spoke 3 are all made of steel, which has the advantages of low cost, high durability, and low deformation and wear. Among them, the rim 2 is coaxially arranged on the outer side of the wheel hub 1, and the spoke 3 is connected between the wheel hub 1 and the rim 2.
[0028] In this embodiment, a circle of wheel axle hub connecting disk 11 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the wheel axle hub 1 in a radially protruding manner. The wheel axle hub connecting disk 11 is a disc structure. The center position of the spoke 3 has a spoke connecting disk 31 that is compatible with the wheel axle hub connecting disk 11. The spoke connecting disk 31 is also a disc structure. The outer surface of the spoke connecting disk 31 is in contact with the inner surface of the wheel axle hub connecting disk 11, and the spoke connecting disk 31 is locked with the wheel axle hub connecting disk 11 by multiple rivets 4 distributed circumferentially.
[0029] Therefore, the wheel axle hub 1 and the spoke 3 are matched with the wheel axle hub connecting disk 11 of the disc structure and the spoke connecting disk 31 of the disc structure, with a high degree of fit, and then locked by multiple rivets 4. It is not only simple and reliable in process, easy to implement, and has high production efficiency, but also can ensure the coaxiality of the wheel axle hub 1 and the spoke 3, with high processing accuracy, not prone to deformation problems, and high yield rate.
[0030] Furthermore, the rivets 4 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction, which further improves the reliability of the connection between the spoke connecting disc 31 and the axle hub connecting disc 11 .
[0031] In this embodiment, the outer edge of the spoke 3 has a connecting steel ring 32 that is compatible with the rim 2. The connecting steel ring 32 is a circular thin plate structure, and the circumferential outer wall of the connecting steel ring 32 is in contact with the circumferential inner wall of the spoke 3. At the same time, the connecting steel ring 32 and the spoke 3 are fixedly connected by a welding process.
[0032] Therefore, the rim 2 and the spoke 3 are in contact through annular surfaces with a high degree of fit, and are then fixed through ring welding, which not only ensures the coaxiality of the rim 2 and the spoke, but also has high processing accuracy, is not prone to deformation problems, has a high yield rate, and has high welding efficiency, further improving production efficiency.
[0033] In this embodiment, the rim 2 is a traditional structure. Specifically, the rim 2 includes a bead seat 21 in an annular groove structure and a deepened groove bottom 22 recessed at the groove bottom of the bead seat 21, so as to ensure reliable installation of the tire. At the same time, the circumferential outer wall of the connecting steel ring 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the deepened groove bottom 22 by welding, which is easy to weld and fix, stable, reliable and durable.
[0034] Furthermore, the inner edge of the spoke 3 is folded inward along the axial direction to form a supporting flange 33, and the supporting flange 33 is supported on the circumferential outer wall of the axle hub 1, which can not only reliably limit the axle hub 1 and the spoke 3, but also further improve the coaxiality of the axle hub 1 and the spoke 3 to avoid the problem of processing deformation.
[0035] Furthermore, the spoke connection disk 31 protrudes outward near the support flange 33 to form a connection step surface 311 adapted to the axle hub connection disk 11, the outer surface of the connection step surface 311 is in contact with the inner surface of the axle hub connection disk 11, and the connection step surface 311 and the axle hub connection disk 11 are locked by a plurality of rivets 4 distributed in the circumferential direction, and the support flange 33 is formed on the inner edge of the connection step surface 311. Through such a design, not only can the structural strength of the connection step surface 311 be effectively improved, but also the installation positioning function is played, and the processing accuracy is improved.
[0036] Furthermore, the outer edge of the wheel axle hub connecting plate 11 is flush with the outer edge of the connecting step surface 311, which is easy to align during processing, further improving the processing accuracy.
[0037] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the wheel axle hub connecting plate 11 has a plurality of bolt connection seats 12 evenly distributed along the circumferential direction, each bolt connection seat 12 is provided with a first bolt through hole 121, and the connecting step surface 311 is provided with second bolt through holes 312 connected to each first bolt through hole 121, so that it can be matched with the counterpart through bolts, which is simple, reliable and easy to assemble.
[0038] Furthermore, each bolt connection seat 12 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of one end of the wheel axle hub 1 , thereby further improving the structural strength of each bolt connection seat 12 .
[0039] In this embodiment, the spoke connecting plate 31 protrudes from one side of the rim 2, and the connecting steel ring 32 is connected to the spoke connecting plate 31 by a plurality of bent spokes 34, so that the wheel axle hub 1, the rim 2 and the spokes 3 are surrounded by a powertrain installation space 4 with a groove-shaped structure. The powertrain installation space 4 is used to accommodate the powertrain. The powertrain can adopt a hub motor system or a wheel core motor system, which has good versatility and can be applied to ordinary two-wheeled vehicles, three-wheeled vehicles, agricultural machinery, engineering machinery, aerospace and automobiles.
[0040] Furthermore, the spokes 34 are all recessed to form reinforcing rib grooves 341 extending along the length direction thereof, thereby effectively improving the structural strength of the spokes 34 and further improving the structural strength of the spokes 3 .
