Abstract: |
The advantages of pneumatic tires,such as lower energy loss when rolling on rough pavement,and smaller vertical stiffness,contact pressure and load quality,as well as the defects of burst,non-puncture resistance and unstable operation are described.The structure and mechanical properties of two kinds of typical non-pneumatic tires namely,spoke-type non-pneumatic tires and honeycomb-type non-pneumatic tires are introduced.Compared with traditional pneumatic tires,not only the vertical stiffness and contact pressure of non-pneumatic tires can be decoupled,but also the vertical stiffness,lateral stiffness and torsional stiffness are no longer strongly coupled,which greatly expands the variable space in the tire design.And the non-pneumatic tires performance can be effectively optimized only by adjusting the structure and geometric parameters of the shear band and spokes.However,there are many problems with non-pneumatic tires,which are still in the experimental stage.In the future,the market demand of non-pneumatic tires will continue to expand,and its structure and mechanical properties will continue to improve,and these will make non-pneumatic tires a major variety in the field of tire. |
