The solid tire improves the heat generation function of the tire, so that the heat generation of the tire is greatly reduced. The solid tire and the rim are press-fitted together through an interference fit. The excessive heat generation of the carcass will cause the tire slip ring to expand.Ordinary tires and all-season tires are wear-resistant, but in winter, especially below zero degrees Celsius, the traction of the tires will be relatively reduced, and there will be slippage in the face of icy and snowy roads. The rubber composition is higher and not wear-resistant.Solid tires have the advantages of good rigidity, high hardness, good stiffness, small deformation, small expansion coefficient, and low heat generation, so the slip ring phenomenon caused by the expansion of the hub caused by the heat generation of the tire is basically eliminated. A tire anti-skid ring is a tire anti-skid device provided for cars driving on ice and snow roads.It utilizes the protruding tufts of the tread and the circular dimples on the tread, which greatly improves the grip between the tire and the ground, and has the characteristics of good anti-skid effect, no damage to the road surface, convenient installation and use, low cost and simple structure.In addition to more protection work in vehicle design and configuration, careful operation is the key to preventing slippage when encountering special road conditions. Solid tires on slippery roads should be controlled more gently, always alert to possible accidents and emergencies ahead. When driving on the road in the rain, your shoes can get wet and easily slip off the pedals when you step on them. The soles of the shoes should be dried on the car carpet before starting the engine, and all car drivers should regularly check that the headlights, taillights, brake lights, and turn signals are in normal condition.

The solid tire is a kind of tire corresponding to the pneumatic tire (hollow tire). The earliest tires are solid tires. Solid tires are currently only used for high-load vehicles or machinery that travel at low speeds, and are also used for fixed-position machinery.Solid tires are generally divided into two types: bonded and non-bonded. The former refers to tires whose rubber is directly vulcanized on the rim, and the latter refers to tires that are vulcanized and then fixed on the rim. According to the shape, it is divided into cylindrical solid tire and inclined bottom solid tire; according to the application, it is divided into antistatic, conductive, oil-resistant, high-load solid tire, and environmentally friendly non-marking solid tire.Solid tires are generally used under high load, and the rubber compound is required to have sufficient pressure resistance and wear resistance, high enough tensile stress, high hardness, low permanent deformation and good wear resistance.Solid tire is an industrial tire suitable for running vehicles under low-speed and high-load harsh conditions. Its safety, durability and economy are obviously superior to pneumatic tires, and are widely used in various industrial vehicles, military vehicles, construction machinery. , towed vehicles in ports and airports, etc.

Is the performance of solid tires affected by temperature?In fact, the influence of the outside air temperature on the working temperature in the tire is very small, because when the vehicle is running normally, the air temperature inside the tire will increase significantly, and the influence is much greater than that of the outside temperature.If your car is equipped with tire pressure monitoring, you might as well verify it yourself. Next time you drive, pay attention to observe the changes in tire pressure. You will find that even on a hot day, from a cold car to driving for a long time, the tire pressure is very high. There will be no particularly noticeable changes.There are also studies that show that when the tire temperature changes by 50 degrees Celsius, the tire pressure change is only 0.5bar, while the safe tire pressure value of our car is generally 2.2bar-2.8bar, so as long as we follow the standard tires on the door frame Pressure to operate, a change of 0.5bar will not let it exceed the safe value at all.The temperature of the tire will increase after a period of driving, and the temperature of the tire is higher than the ambient temperature, so the influence of the ambient temperature on the tire pressure can be ignored. That is to say, the tire pressure in the hot tire state will not be affected by the seasonal ambient temperature. That is, the tire pressure in the working state will not be affected by the seasonal ambient temperature.However, it should be noted that the problem of tire temperature is undoubtedly a fatal weakness for long-distance bus drivers and large truck drivers. Long-distance driving will accelerate the wear of tires, and excessive temperature will accelerate the aging of tire rubber and the softening of steel wires. Overheating will be directly fed back to the tread surface, which is the pattern. The pattern will speed up the wear, but a good tire has a strong ability to dissipate heat. Therefore, when the temperature is high, the quality of the tire rubber can be tested, and the material of the pattern is the tire rubber.

Tires play a very important role in various parts of automobiles, and have a great impact on various driving performances of automobiles. The use of polyurethane tires is becoming more and more popular. Today, Zhejiang Kunrong Rubber Technology Co., Ltd will introduce to you why polyurethane tires are called green tires. Rubber tires are exposed to short service life, poor wear resistance and tear strength during use, especially truck tires, which often lead to tire blowouts due to their limited load capacity.In order to make up for the shortcomings of rubber tires, polyurethane tires are produced. The reason why polyurethane tires can make up for the shortcomings of rubber tires is that polyurethane elastomers are ideal materials for green tires.In terms of its Young's modulus, polyurethane elastomer is a polymer composite material with high hardness of plastic and high elasticity of rubber, mainly including polyurethane compound rubber, polyurethane casting rubber, polyurethane water latex and polyurethane heat. plastic. Compared with rubber, polyurethane elastomers have superior wear resistance, higher tear strength and elongation and a wide range of hardness. In particular, the cast polyurethane elastomer is the most wear-resistant elastomer at present. It has the advantages of high wear resistance, colorability, high cutting resistance, excellent oil resistance and chemical resistance, and is non-toxic to the human body. It is not necessary to add carbon black, so polyurethane is an ideal material for making tire treads.In addition, polyurethane tires have good vibration absorption and shock absorption effects, very large load capacity, and extremely ideal resistance to oil and other chemicals. Because polyurethane elastomers have special physical and mechanical properties that other polymers do not have, they are widely used in many aspects such as national defense, light textiles, transportation, oil fields, mining, machinery, construction, and medical care.
