AI Technical Summary
In tire burst pressure tests, the contact area of the wheel hub drum is prone to shrinkage due to high pressure deformation, which can cause the pressure ring to come off and the live steel ring to come off, affecting the success rate of the test.
A thickened and extended section is designed at the rear end of the hub drum, and an annular protrusion is formed on the inner wall of the thickened section to enhance the deformation resistance of the contact area and prevent the contact area from shrinking inward.
This improves the deformation resistance of the contact area between the rear end of the wheel hub drum and the pressure ring and live steel ring, preventing the pressure ring from coming off and the live steel ring from coming off, thus ensuring the smooth conduct of the burst pressure test.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] This embodiment provides a wheel hub drum for tire burst pressure testing, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first end of the wheel hub drum 1 is provided with a drum rim 101 for limiting one side of the tire bead. The rear end of the wheel hub drum 1 includes a thickened section 102, and the outer wall of the thickened section 102 is provided with a pressure ring groove 104 for the pressure ring 3 to be partially embedded and positioned. The inner wall of the thickened section 102 bulges radially inward to form an annular protrusion, thereby increasing the thickness of the wheel hub drum 1 where the pressure ring groove 104 is located. This strengthens the contact area between the wheel hub drum 1, the live steel ring 2, and the pressure ring 3, improves the deformation resistance of the contact area, prevents the diameter of the contact area of the wheel hub drum 1 from shrinking, and thus prevents the pressure ring 3 from coming off and causing the live steel ring 2 to break off, ensuring the successful conduct of the burst pressure test.
[0027] By adopting this wheel hub drum 1, while retaining all the original functions, the deformation resistance of the wheel hub drum 1 can be significantly improved through some minor local design improvements. This avoids the problem of local deformation causing the live steel ring 2 to come off the ring, resulting in damage to the wheel hub drum 1 and rendering it unusable.
[0028] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the thickness of the annular protrusion is 5mm to 10mm, meaning that the thickness of the thickened section 102 is 5mm to 10mm thicker than other parts of the wheel hub drum 1. The thickness of a conventionally designed drum varies depending on the tire size, ranging from approximately 15mm to 40mm. However, other parts of the wheel hub drum 1 in this case still use a conventional design thickness of 15mm to 40mm. After the protrusion forms an annular protrusion, the total thickness of the thickened section 102 is equal to 15mm to 40mm plus 5mm to 10mm, which is 5mm to 10mm thicker than before.
[0029] For example, if the original design thickness of the drum body is 35mm, and the drum body 1 of this wheel hub is still 35mm, and the annular protrusion formed by the inner convexity of the thickened section 102 is 5mm, then the total thickness of the thickened section 102 is 40mm. Compared with the conventionally designed drum body of the same size, the area of the pressure ring groove 104 of the wheel hub drum body 1 with the thickened section 102 (that is, the contact area between the wheel hub drum body 1 and the pressure ring 3 and the live steel ring 2) is thickened by 5mm, thereby enhancing the deformation resistance of the contact area.
[0030] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the rear end of the wheel hub drum 1 also includes an extended section 103, which is located at the rear end of the thickened section 102. The axial length of the drum in a conventional design varies depending on the tire size. The portion of the wheel hub drum 1 before the extended section 103 (from the beginning of the wheel hub drum 1 to the end of the thickened section 102) is equivalent to the overall axial length of a drum of the same specification under a conventional design. Therefore, the wheel hub drum 1 with the extended section 103 has an increased axial length compared to a conventionally designed drum of the same specification, thereby enhancing the deformation resistance of the contact area between the wheel hub drum 1 and the pressure ring 3 and the live steel rim 2.
[0031] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the axial length of the extended section 103 is 5mm to 20mm, which means that the length is increased by 5mm to 20mm compared with the conventionally designed drum body of the same specification.
[0032] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the outer wall of the extended section 103 is flush with the outer wall of the thickened section 102, and the inner wall of the extended section 103 is flush with the raised surface of the annular protrusion (i.e., the inner wall surface of the thickened section 102). Therefore, the thickness of the extended section 103 is equal to the total thickness of the thickened section 102. For example, if the drum body is originally designed to be 35mm thick, the annular protrusion is 5mm thick, and the total thickness of the thickened section 102 is 40mm, then the thickness of the extended section 103 is 40mm.
[0033] In one implementation, such asFigures 1 to 4 As shown, apart from the thickened section 102 and the extended section 103, the thickness of the remaining parts of the wheel hub drum 1 (the thickness of non-critical load-bearing parts) can be reduced compared to the thickness of the drum in a conventional design, thus achieving a lightweight design for the wheel hub drum 1. For example, if the original design thickness of the drum is 35mm, the total thickness of the thickened section 102 is 40mm, then the thickness of the extended section 103 is 40mm, and the thickness of the remaining parts of the wheel hub drum 1 is 30mm.
[0034] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the annular protrusion and the inner wall of the hub drum 1 are connected by a chamfer, and the tail end of the extended section 103 and the inner wall are connected by a chamfer to avoid abrupt changes in shape and reduce local stress concentration.
[0035] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the pressure ring groove 104 and the outer wall of the hub drum 1 are connected by a chamfer to reduce local stress concentration.
[0036] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the hub drum 1 is provided with a water inlet 106, which is located between the drum rim 101 and the thickened section 102. A water pipe connector 107 is installed at one end of the water inlet 106 inside the hub drum 1. A water injection pipe can be connected through the water pipe connector 107, so that water can be injected into the inner cavity of the tire mounted on the hub drum 1 through the water pipe connector 107 and the water inlet 106.
[0037] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the thickened section 102 is provided with a sealing ring groove 105 for the installation of the sealing ring 4. The sealing ring groove 105 is located between the drum body rim 101 and the pressure ring groove 104, which improves the sealing performance between the live steel ring 2 and the hub drum body 1.
[0038] Example 2
[0039] This embodiment provides a wheel hub for tire burst pressure testing, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the wheel includes the hub drum 1, the movable steel ring 2, and the pressure ring 3 as in Embodiment 1. The outer wall of the movable steel ring 2 has a movable steel ring rim 201 at its tail end, and the inner wall of the movable steel ring 2 has a pressure ring groove 202 at its tail end, with the groove wall extending to the tail end face of the movable steel ring 2. After the movable steel ring 2 is fitted onto the hub drum 1 and pressed tightly, the pressure ring groove 202 of the movable steel ring 2 corresponds exactly to the pressure ring groove 104.
[0040] Test procedure: Place the wheel hub drum 1 horizontally on the ground or platform, with the drum rim 101 of the wheel hub drum 1 in contact with the ground or platform. Then, put the tire on the wheel hub drum 1, with one side of the tire bead fitting against the drum rim 101. Place the live steel ring 2 with the first end facing the ground on the wheel hub drum 1, with the other side of the tire bead fitting against the live steel ring rim 201. Then, put the pressure ring 3 on the wheel hub drum 1. The inner ring of the pressure ring 3 is embedded in the pressure ring groove 104, and the outer ring of the pressure ring 3 is embedded in the pressure ring slot 202, thereby holding the live steel ring 2 in place. This completes the assembly of the wheel hub and tire. The wheel hub can then be sent to the test site for tire burst pressure testing.
[0041] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the inner walls of the pressure ring groove 202 and the live steel ring 2 are transitioned by chamfering.
[0042] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 4 Figures 1 to 4 Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it also includes a sealing ring 4, which is used to be fitted into the sealing ring groove 105.
[0043] This utility model uses specific examples to illustrate its principles and implementation methods. The above description of the embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the idea of this utility model. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
