    专利说明:

    The invention relates to an adapter for a wheel assembly comprising a tire and a rim, said adapter being intended to ensure the connection between the tire and the rim. It also relates to a roller assembly comprising said adapter.
    A tire is a ring structure whose axis of revolution is the axis of rotation of the tire, comprising a tread intended to come into contact with a ground, two sidewalls and two beads intended to come into contact with a tire. rim, the two beads being connected to the tread by the two sides.
    The following are the definitions used in the present invention: - "axial direction": direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the tire, - "radial direction": direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the tire, - "radial plane"; plane which contains the axis of rotation of the tire and defined by the radial and axial directions, "circumferential direction": direction perpendicular to a radial plane, - "equatorial plane": plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation and passing through the middle of the tread of the tire.
    In the application WO2015091618, it is already known to insert, between the beads of a tire and a rim, a connecting element or adapter. This adapter, consisting of reinforced rubber compounds, is elastically deformable at least in both radial and axial directions and comprises an axially inner end and an axially outer end. Such an adapter makes it possible to dissociate the portion of the roller assembly that can be considered as actually working as a tire, the part of the roller assembly that can be considered to work as a rim.
    [0005] But, if such a rolling assembly allows the tire to perform its usual functions, and in particular a drift thrust response following the application of a tire drift angle which thus confers on the rolling assembly a flexibility sufficient to protect the tire from any degradation, it may be the cause of the appearance or even the propagation of cracks in the outer reinforcement constituting the axially outer end, due to multiple repeats of shocks "pothole" type.
    Indeed, the adapter of the state of the art referenced above, ensuring the connection of each bead of the tire with the rim, does not have the optimum mechanical characteristics, mainly in terms of stiffness, allowing absorb large deformations during the passage of the rolling assembly in potholes. This may result in residual plastic deformation, or even breakage, of said adapter, and, consequently, damage to the rolling assembly.
    In addition, no suggestion is given in this document on developments in the design of the adapter to overcome the previously described disadvantages.
    The inventors have also set themselves the goal of proposing a new adapter more resistant to shocks, and high demands when using the assembly on roads in poor condition, while reducing the rigidity still too much. high of the outer end of the adapter. The invention therefore relates to an adapter for a roller assembly having an axis of rotation (YY '), the rolling assembly comprising: - a tire having two beads, - a j ante having two edge rims, for each bead, said adapter providing Injunction between the bead and the rim, said adapter comprising: an axially inner end connected to the rim. an axially outer end comprising an outer reinforcing element and intended to come into contact with an axially inner, substantially radial face, or bearing face, with a bead; a body connecting the axially outer end with the end; axially inner to form a unitary piece, comprising at least one main reinforcing armature providing the connection between the outer reinforcing member and the inner reinforcing member, and comprising a substantially axial adapter seat for contacting. with a bead.
    The adapter is characterized in that the outer reinforcing element is entirely axially external to the bearing face, and in that the outer reinforcing element is a substantially annular structure, called rod, section polygonal, comprising a unitary wire of diameter Dl, said wire being coated with an elastomeric composition and being wound contiguously about a support at least three times in an axial direction and at least two times in a radial direction.
    The wire is wound so as to form turns.
    An adapter, connecting element between the tire and the rim, allows a rolling assembly, in rolling, to have sufficient radial deformations at the bead of the tire to allow the desired protection vis-à-vis shocks side.
    The use of a metal wire in the outer reinforcing element having a large diameter makes it possible to satisfy the resistance to compressive force during inflation of the tire and, consequently, to avoid the phenomenon of buckling thanks to a better cohesion between each turn of threads.
    It is recalled that the phenomenon of buckling of the rod has the consequence of generating a pressure loss of the assembled assembly.
    Furthermore, the fact of using a fully coated metal wire of elastomer composition allows to greatly reduce the volume of empty spaces of the axially outer end, and thus enhance the resistance without damage to shocks through an increase rigidity, compared to the use of a partially coated elastomer yarn. This increase in rigidity is explained by the fact that the structure of the outer reinforcing element has a greater degree of cohesion.
    In addition, because of its stability the outer reinforcement of the invention provides a slight ovalization of the outer end of the adapter, optimizing the operation of the tire during travel.
    The axially outer end of the adapter defines axially a portion of the adapter body, called adapter seat, and intended to receive a tire bead. The adapter seat performs the same function as a rim seat, which is the substantially axial portion of a rim flange. In the axial direction, the bearing surface of the axially outer end serves to support the bead of the tire like a rim hook, which is the substantially radial portion of a rim flange. The tire is then immobilized axially by the inflation pressure, and is pressed against the bearing face of this axially outer end, as in the usual case of a tire bead applied against a rim hook.
    The axially inner end of the adapter could be called "adapter bead" since it may be intended to hang the adapter on the edge of a rim, as in the usual case of a bead of pneumatic leaning on a rim flange.
    Preferably, the axially inner end is connected to a rim edge, such as a rim hook by any fastening means, such as by the conventional technique of clamping, gluing, crimping, screwing, with one or more centering grooves with or without reinforcement for clamping on a rim hook.
    Thus, during its use, the tire is substantially immobilized axially relative to the rim. More precisely, the beads of the tire are immobilized axially with respect to the rim, as for a conventional roller assembly in which the beads of the tire are mounted directly on the rim flanges. On the other hand, the beads of the tire are not immobilized radially with respect to the rim. More precisely, the beads of the tire have a possibility of radial displacement relative to the rim. In standard rolling, the radial deformation of the adapter is negligible. On the other hand, during an impact, the radial deformation of the adapter can be significant, which contributes to reducing the mechanical forces on the rolling assembly.
    Preferably, the axially inner end comprises an inner reinforcing member to be mounted on a rim flange.
    [0021] Preferably, the elastomeric composition coating the unitary wire has an average thickness of between 0.05 mm and 0.3 mm.
    This elastomer composition may be chosen from elastomer compositions conventionally used in the field of tires.
    Preferably, the diameter DI of the unit wire is between 0.5 mm and 5 mm. Preferably, the wire is wound between 3 and 10 times in the axial direction, and between 2 and 9 times in the radial direction.
    The winding of the wire in the form of contiguous turns and in different layers in the radial direction results in a structure similar to that of nested webs in each other in the form of layers. Such a winding in the axial and radial directions makes it possible to adjust the radial height and the axial width of the successive layers.
    The winding of the wire according to different layers can be defined by the following relationship: Ni Ni x Dfu Where Dfii represents the diameter of the wire used, and Ni the number of wires of the index layer "i".
    The wire is coated with an elastomeric composition ensuring the cohesion of the reinforcement according to the invention by limiting the possible displacements between the son after vulcanization. The wire used is preferably steel.
    Preferably, the wire used is characterized by its resistance Rm between 1000 and SOOOMPa, and preferably between 1400 and 2800MPa, and the nature of its coating selected from zinc, brass or bronze.
    Preferably, the adapter may comprise a single assembly comprising two axially outer ends disposed on either side of the rim disk. It may also consist of two independent parts, arranged on each rim hook with each axially inner end.
    The invention is described with reference to the following Figures 1 to 6, schematic and not necessarily to the scale: - Figure 1: radial section of an unassembled adapter, according to a first embodiment of the invention, - Figure 2: radial section of an unassembled adapter, according to a second variant of the invention, - Figure 3: radial section of an unassembled adapter, according to a third embodiment of the invention, - Figure 4: radial section of an unassembled adapter, according to a fourth variant of the invention, - figure 5: radial section of an unassembled adapter, according to a fifth variant of the invention, - figure 6: radial section of a rolling assembly, comprising two adapters.
    [0030] Figure 1 shows an adapter not mounted on a rim, according to a first variant of the invention. This adapter comprises an axially outer end 9 comprising an outer reinforcing member 15, an axially inner end 10 comprising an inner reinforcing member 16, and a body 11 comprising a main reinforcing armature 17. The main reinforcing armature 17 is constituted by a single reinforcing layer which wraps respectively around the inner reinforcing member 16 of the axially inner end 10 and around the outer reinforcing member 15 of the axially outer end 9. At the body 11 the forward and return portions of said reinforcing layer thus constitute a substantially radial stack of at least two reinforcing layers. The main reinforcing armature 17 is wrapped with a layer of elastomeric material 20. The body 11 further comprises an adapter seat 18 for engaging a tire bead. The body has an axial width L, measured between the axially inner face 21 of the axially outer end 9 and the axially outer face 26 of the axially inner end 10. In this first embodiment of the invention.
    In Figure 1, the outer reinforcing member 15 is an annular structure, called rod, being constituted by a type of construction (3 + 4 + 5 + 4 + 3). Each number represents the number of turns of wire on a layer. The first NI layer is disposed on the radially innermost portion. The layers N2 to N5 are progressively located on the radially outer layers. Thus, in this example, the NI layer comprises 3 turns of wires, the N2 4-turns layer, the N3 5-turns layer, the N4 4-turns layer and the N5 3-turns layer. The first layer of wire is wrapped around a substantially circular support.
    The wire used is a steel wire diameter 2.15 mm fully coated with a substantially uniform layer of elastomer composition of about 0.14 mm.
    Figure 2 differs from Figure 1 by a construction of the different wire winding. In this figure, 6 successive layers of son are arranged in the radial direction. The first layer NI comprises 4 turns of wire, the layer N2 5 turns of wire, the layer N3 4 turns of wire, the layer N4 5 turns of wire, the layer N5 4 turns of wire and the layer N6 3 turns of wire.
    The wire used is a steel wire diameter 2.00 mm fully coated with a substantially uniform layer of elastomer composition of about 0.14 mm.
    Figure 3 differs from Figures 1 and 2 in that the axially inner end 10 is held on the rim flange 8 by a simple hooking of known type, when the tire is pressurized.
    FIG. 4 shows an attachment of the adapter by bonding the axially inner end 10 to the rim flange 8.
    FIG. 5 shows an attachment of the adapter by crimping the inner end 10 in the rim flange 8.
    FIG. 6 shows a radial section, in a plane YZ, of a wheel assembly comprising a tire P, a rim J and, for each bead B, an adapter A ensuring the junction between the bead B and the rim J. The tire P comprises a tread (not referenced) extended radially inwards by two sidewalls 1, themselves extended radially inwards by two beads B. In each bead B, the carcass reinforcement 2 s wraps around a circumferential reinforcing element or bead wire 3, to form a separate upturn 4 of the carcass reinforcement 2 by a filling element 5. The rim J comprises, in a median portion, a mounting groove 6, intended to facilitate the mounting of the beads B of the tire P, and at its axial ends, two rim flanges 8 each comprising a substantially radial portion or rim hook 7a and a substantially axial portion or seat of j ante 7b. The adapter A comprises an axially inner end 10 comprising an inner reinforcing element 16 and intended to be mounted on a rim flange 8, an axially outer end 9 comprising an outer reinforcing element 15 and intended to come into contact with each other. an axially inner, substantially radial face, or bearing face 21, with a bead B, and finally a body 11, connecting the axially outer end 9 with the axially inner end 10 so as to form a unitary piece comprising minus a main reinforcing armature 17 providing the connection between the outer reinforcing element 15 and the inner reinforcing element 16, and comprising a substantially axial adapter seat 18 intended to come into contact with a bead B.
    Example 1: Compression test
    In this example, the adapter is mounted between a 245/40 R 18 size tire and a 6B17 size rim. The inner end of the adapter has a dimension of 17 "and the outer end of 18".
    Table I below collates the test pressure measurement results of the same tire size mounted on adapters differentiated by the number and the wire diameter which constitutes the external reinforcement. Experience shows that the inflation pressure of the tire solicits the outer reinforcement ring compression against the deformation experienced by the reinforcements tested.
    Table I
    From this table, it can be seen that the increase in the diameter of the wire, and therefore its unit section can effectively increase the test pressure (adapters 2 and 3 - 15% increase) in compared to an increase in the number of wires (adapters 2 and 4 - increase of 32%) in comparison with increases in the size or the height of the external reinforcement which correspond respectively to 15% (adapter 3) and 32% (adapter 4).
