  • Patent number: 11535070
    Abstract: A design method for an outer contour structure of a tire capable of reducing tire wind resistance, including the following steps: step 1, establishing an initial tire model; step 2, building an tire aerodynamic drag calculation model; step 3, designing a testing scheme using tire five contour parameters; step 4, building a function relationship between tire five outer contour parameters and an aerodynamic drag coefficient values, and verifying the accuracy of the function relationship; and step 5, obtaining tire five outer contour parameters when the aerodynamic drag coefficient value is smallest by using an optimization algorithm. The design method effectively avoids the blindness problem in the design process of the tire outer contour structure and can effectively reduce the design cycle number of the tire outer contour structure, thereby improving the improvement efficiency, meanwhile, it is benefit to reduce tire aerodynamic drag and improve vehicle economy and reduce harmful emissions.

  • Patent number: 10994578
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for improving the construction process of a wide-base radial truck tire, and the improvement of the tire construction process is realized by the design of carcass ply, the tire belt drum and the tire semi-finished components. The invention solves the problem of carcass bending, and provides theoretical guidance and technical support for improving the performance of wide-angle radial tires. The design method of the belt drum of the tire molding machine effectively controls the cords elongation of the belt. In addition, the problem of uneven force in the cords of the belt is eliminated, which dispels the abnormal flow of the wide-base tire shoulder rubber to the center of the crown during the shaping process, thus improving the durability and operability of the tire.
