[0027] The one-piece hub for an airless tire in this embodiment includes a left hub A and a right hub B. The left hub A is connected to the right hub B, and the left hub A and the right hub B are symmetrically arranged.
[0028] Both the left hub A and the right hub B in this embodiment include an inner ring 1, an outer ring 2, a hub body 3, and a clamping piece 4. A plurality of positioning posts 5 for limiting the airless tire C are provided on the clamping piece 4. The plurality of positioning posts 5 are arranged in a circumferential array, and positioning holes 9 corresponding to the positioning posts 5 are provided on the airless tire C.
[0029] The inner ring 1, the outer ring 2, and the clamping piece 4 in this embodiment are all integrally provided on the hub body 3. The inner ring 1, the outer ring 2, and the clamping piece 4 are all coaxially arranged with the hub body 3, and the inner ring 1, the outer ring 2, and the clamping piece 4 are arranged in sequence from the center of the hub body 3 outward.
[0030] A connecting seat 6 for connecting the left hub A and the right hub B and a reinforcing rib 8 for enhancing the strength are provided on the hub body 3 in this embodiment. A connecting hole 7 is provided on the connecting seat 6. Bolts pass through the connecting holes 7 of the hub body 3 in both the left hub A and the right hub B. The reinforcing rib 8 includes a rectangular reinforcing rib and an annular reinforcing rib. The inner ring 1 and the outer ring 2 are connected by the rectangular reinforcing rib, and the plurality of connecting seats 6 are connected by the annular reinforcing rib.
[0031] Specifically, the one-piece hub for an airless tire includes a left hub A and a right hub B. The inner ring 1, the outer ring 2, the clamping piece 4, the connecting seat 6, and the reinforcing rib 8 in both the left hub A and the right hub B are all integrally structured with the hub body 3 (i.e., the "one-piece" in this application). When in use, the airless tire C is installed between the left hub A and the right hub B, and then bolts are passed through the connecting holes 7, and thus the left hub A and the right hub B can be fixed.
[0032] A clamping piece 4 is arranged on the hub body 3, and the tire can be clamped between the two clamping pieces 4. A positioning post 5 is arranged on the clamping piece 4, and the positioning post 5 is inserted into the positioning hole 9 of the non-pneumatic tire C, so as to prevent the tire from displacing and sliding between the two clamping pieces.
[0033] By arranging the clamping piece 4 on the hub body 3, the two clamping pieces 4 clamp the non-pneumatic tire C. Therefore, the rubber material of the non-pneumatic tire C can be made softer, more elastic and more conforming to the contact surface of the hub. The middle part of the non-pneumatic tire C is designed as a concave structure. When the non-pneumatic tire C is installed on the left hub A and the right hub B, a hollow part D will exist between the concave structure of the non-pneumatic tire C and the integrated hub. This hollow part D can increase the hollow space to absorb the vibration amplitude.
[0034] In addition, it should be noted that for the specific embodiments described in this specification, the shapes and names of the components can be different.
