Abstract: |
ln this study, the forces on the tire rim were analyzed. By using finite element analysis software Ansys, the stress state of the tire rim was simulated. Based on this , the material strength was evaluated and the parameters of rim were optimized. The results showed that, existing rim material 7A04 and 40Cr could be replaced by aluminum alloy ZL107, and the utilization ratio of material was improved from 30% to 80% by using casting process. After the optimization,the number of manufacturing steps and production cost were significantly reduced. |
