Description
本明細書に開示される技術は、車両用ホイールに関する。
The technology disclosed in this specification relates to a vehicle wheel.
例えば繊維強化樹脂材料等の樹脂により形成されたホイール本体を備える車両用ホイールが知られている。このような樹脂製のホイール本体は、アルミニウム合金やマグネシウム合金などの軽合金により形成された従来のホイール本体に比べて軽いため、車両の軽量化への貢献が期待されている。
For example, a wheel for a vehicle having a wheel body formed of a resin such as a fiber reinforced resin material is known. Since such a resin wheel body is lighter than a conventional wheel body formed of a light alloy such as an aluminum alloy or a magnesium alloy, it is expected to contribute to weight reduction of the vehicle.
樹脂製のホイール本体を、車両のハブに連結するための従来の構成は、次の通りである。すなわち、ホイール本体のハブ取付部に形成された各ボルト孔に対して、ホイール表面側から筒状の固定ワッシャが装着されている。固定ワッシャは、フランジを有している。このフランジは、ボルト孔に対してホイール表面側に位置しており、フランジの外径はボルト孔の径より大きい。また、固定ワッシャに対してホイール表面側には固定ナットが配置される。固定ナットは、ハブに設けられたホイールスタッドであって、固定ワッシャの貫通孔を貫通したホイールスタッドの先端部に螺合により締結されている。固定ナットとホイールスタッドとの締結により、固定ナットとハブとの間に、ホイール本体のハブ取付部と固定ワッシャとが挟み込まれることにより、ホイール本体がハブに連結される。また、固定ナットからの軸方向の応力は、固定ワッシャを介して間接的に樹脂製のホイール本体に付与される(下記特許文献1参照)。
The conventional configuration for connecting the resin wheel body to the hub of the vehicle is as follows. That is, a tubular fixed washer is attached to each bolt hole formed in the hub mounting portion of the wheel body from the wheel surface side. The fixed washer has a flange. This flange is located on the wheel surface side with respect to the bolt hole, and the outer diameter of the flange is larger than the diameter of the bolt hole. Further, a fixing nut is arranged on the wheel surface side with respect to the fixed washer. The fixing nut is a wheel stud provided on the hub and is screwed to the tip of the wheel stud that penetrates the through hole of the fixing washer. By fastening the fixing nut and the wheel stud, the hub mounting portion of the wheel body and the fixing washer are sandwiched between the fixing nut and the hub, so that the wheel body is connected to the hub. Further, the axial stress from the fixing nut is indirectly applied to the resin wheel body via the fixing washer (see Patent Document 1 below).
しかし、従来の構成では、固定ナットとホイールスタッドとで締結した際、固定ワッシャは、固定ナットからの押圧力を受けることにより何らの規制もなくホイール裏面側に押し込まれる。このため、樹脂製のホイール本体に過剰な軸方向の応力がかかる。その結果、例えば、締結による軸方向の応力によって樹脂製のホイール本体が損傷するおそれがある。
However, in the conventional configuration, when the fixing nut and the wheel stud are fastened, the fixed washer is pushed to the back side of the wheel without any restriction by receiving the pressing force from the fixing nut. Therefore, excessive axial stress is applied to the resin wheel body. As a result, for example, the resin wheel body may be damaged by the axial stress caused by fastening.
本明細書では、上述した課題の少なくとも一部を解決することが可能な技術を開示する。

本明細書に開示される技術は、以下の形態として実現することが可能である。
The technology disclosed in this specification can be realized in the following forms.
(1)本明細書に開示される車両用ホイールは、締結部材で締結することにより車両本体のハブに連結される車両用ホイールであって、前記車両用ホイールは、前記締結部材が挿入されるボルト孔が貫通形成されると共に樹脂材料により形成されたハブ取付部と、前記ボルト孔のホイール表面側に配置され、前記締結部材が挿入される第1の挿入孔が形成された表側部材と、前記ボルト孔のホイール裏面側に配置され、前記締結部材が挿入される第2の挿入孔が形成された裏側部材と、を備え、前記表側部材は、外径が前記ボルト孔の径よりも大きい第1のフランジと、ホイール軸方向において前記締結部材の一部と対向し、前記締結部材で締結した際に前記締結部材から前記ホイール裏面側に向かう押圧力を受ける第1の対向部と、を有し、前記裏側部材は、外径が前記ボルト孔の径よりも大きい第2のフランジと、前記ホイール軸方向において前記ハブの一部と対向し、前記締結部材で締結した際に前記ハブから前記ホイール表面側に向かう押圧力を受ける第2の対向部と、を有し、前記表側部材と前記裏側部材とは、前記締結部材で締結した際に、前記表側部材の一部と前記裏側部材の一部とが前記ホイール軸方向で互いに突き当たるよう構成されている。
(1) The vehicle wheel disclosed in the present specification is a vehicle wheel that is connected to a hub of a vehicle body by fastening with a fastening member, and the fastening member is inserted into the vehicle wheel. A hub mounting portion formed through the bolt holes and made of a resin material, and a front side member arranged on the wheel surface side of the bolt holes and formed with a first insertion hole into which the fastening member is inserted. The front side member includes a back side member which is arranged on the wheel back surface side of the bolt hole and has a second insertion hole into which the fastening member is inserted, and the outer diameter of the front side member is larger than the diameter of the bolt hole. A first flange and a first facing portion that faces a part of the fastening member in the wheel axial direction and receives a pressing force from the fastening member toward the back surface side of the wheel when the fastening member is fastened. The back side member faces a second flange having an outer diameter larger than the diameter of the bolt hole and a part of the hub in the wheel axial direction, and when fastened with the fastening member, the hub is used. It has a second facing portion that receives a pressing force toward the wheel surface side, and when the front side member and the back side member are fastened with the fastening member, a part of the front side member and the back side member are used. Is configured to abut against each other in the wheel axial direction.
本車両用ホイールでは、締結部材で車両本体のハブに車両用ホイールを締結した際に、表側部材の第1の対向部が締結部材からホイール裏面側に向かう押圧力を受ける。また、裏側部材の第2の対向部が締結部材からホイール表面側に向かう押圧力を受ける。そして、その押圧力によって、車両用ホイールのハブ取付部におけるボルト孔の周囲部分が、表側部材の第1のフランジとハブとの間に挟み込まれることにより、車両用ホイールをハブに取り付けることができる。さらに、本車両用ホイールでは、締結部材で締結した際に、ボルト孔内において表側部材の一部と裏側部材の一部とがホイール軸方向で互いに突き当たる。これにより、本車両用ホイールによれば、表側部材と裏側部材とが互いに突き当たらない構成に比べて、締結部材による締結によって車両用ホイールにおける樹脂製のハブ取付部に過剰な軸方向の応力がかかることを抑制することができる。
In this vehicle wheel, when the vehicle wheel is fastened to the hub of the vehicle body with the fastening member, the first facing portion of the front side member receives a pressing force from the fastening member toward the back surface side of the wheel. Further, the second facing portion of the back side member receives a pressing force from the fastening member toward the wheel surface side. Then, due to the pressing force, the peripheral portion of the bolt hole in the hub mounting portion of the vehicle wheel is sandwiched between the first flange of the front side member and the hub, so that the vehicle wheel can be mounted on the hub. .. Further, in the wheel for this vehicle, when fastened with the fastening member, a part of the front side member and a part of the back side member abut each other in the wheel axial direction in the bolt hole. As a result, according to the present vehicle wheel, an excessive axial stress is applied to the resin hub mounting portion of the vehicle wheel by fastening with the fastening member, as compared with the configuration in which the front side member and the back side member do not abut against each other. This can be suppressed.
(2)上記車両用ホイールにおいて、前記表側部材と前記裏側部材とは、前記締結部材で締結した際に、前記ボルト孔内において前記表側部材の一部と前記裏側部材の一部とが前記ホイール軸方向で互いに突き当たるよう構成されている。これにより、本車両用ホイールによれば、例えば、表側部材と裏側部材とがボルト孔の外で突き当たる構成に比べて、表側部材と裏側部材とのホイール軸方向に垂直な方向における相対的な位置ズレを抑制することができる。
(2) In the vehicle wheel, when the front side member and the back side member are fastened with the fastening member, a part of the front side member and a part of the back side member are in the bolt hole. It is configured to abut each other in the axial direction. As a result, according to the wheel for the present vehicle, for example, the relative positions of the front member and the back member in the direction perpendicular to the wheel axis direction are compared with the configuration in which the front member and the back member abut each other outside the bolt holes. The deviation can be suppressed.
(3)上記車両用ホイールにおいて、前記表側部材と前記裏側部材とは、前記ボルト孔内において互いに保持する構成としてもよい。本車両用ホイールによれば、表側部材や裏側部材がボルト孔から脱落することを抑制することができる。
(3) In the vehicle wheel, the front side member and the back side member may be configured to hold each other in the bolt holes. According to the wheel for this vehicle, it is possible to prevent the front side member and the back side member from falling out from the bolt holes.
(4)上記車両用ホイールにおいて、上記車両用ホイールにおいて、前記車両用ホイールは、前記ハブ取付部の前記ホイール裏面側に配置されるハブプレートを、さらに備え、前記ハブプレートは、前記締結部材で締結した際に、前記ハブ取付部と前記ハブとに前記ホイール軸方向で接触し、前記ホイール軸方向において前記裏側部材の前記第2のフランジと前記ハブ取付部とで挟持されている構成としてもよい。本車両用ホイールでは、締結部材で締結した際に、ハブプレートがハブ取付部とハブとにホイール軸方向で接触するため、締結部材の締結による応力が、裏側部材だけでなく、ハブプレートに分散される。これにより、本車両用ホイールによれば、ハブプレートを備えない構成に比べて、締結部材の締結による応力が裏側部材に集中的にかかることを抑制することができる。また、本車両用ホイールによれば、ハブプレートは、ホイール軸方向において裏側部材の第2のフランジとハブ取付部とで挟持されているため、例えば締結部材による締結前においてハブプレートが脱落することを抑制することができる。
(4) In the vehicle wheel, in the vehicle wheel, the vehicle wheel further includes a hub plate arranged on the back surface side of the wheel of the hub mounting portion, and the hub plate is a fastening member. When the wheels are fastened, the hub mounting portion and the hub are in contact with each other in the wheel axial direction, and are sandwiched between the second flange of the back member and the hub mounting portion in the wheel axial direction. Good. In this vehicle wheel, when the wheel is fastened with the fastening member, the hub plate comes into contact with the hub mounting portion and the hub in the wheel axial direction, so that the stress caused by fastening the fastening member is distributed not only to the back side member but also to the hub plate. Will be done. As a result, according to the wheel for this vehicle, it is possible to prevent the stress due to the fastening of the fastening member from being concentrated on the back side member as compared with the configuration without the hub plate. Further, according to the wheel for this vehicle, since the hub plate is sandwiched between the second flange of the back side member and the hub mounting portion in the wheel axial direction, for example, the hub plate may fall off before fastening with the fastening member. Can be suppressed.
なお、本明細書に開示される技術は、種々の形態で実現することが可能であり、例えば、車両用ホイール、その製造方法等の形態で実現することが可能である。
The technology disclosed in the present specification can be realized in various forms, for example, a vehicle wheel, a manufacturing method thereof, and the like.

インナーフランジ420は、ホイール軸方向視で円環状の部分であり、インナー本体410に対してインナー側に隣接して配置されている。インナーフランジ420の外径は、ボルト孔224の径より大きい。インナーフランジ420は、ボルト孔224の外であって、かつ、ボルト孔224に対してインナー側に配置される。このため、インナーフランジ420は、ホイール軸方向において、ハブ取付部220におけるボルト孔224の周囲部分に対向する第1のインナー対向面404を有する。なお、本実施形態では、ボルト孔224の周囲部分と第1のインナー対向面404との間には、ハブプレート500におけるハブ貫通孔504の周囲部分が介在する。すなわち、ハブプレート500は、ホイール軸方向において、インナーブッシュ400のインナーフランジ420とハブ取付部220との間に挟持される。
The inner flange 420 is an annular portion in the direction of the wheel axis, and is arranged adjacent to the inner body 410 on the inner side. The outer diameter of the inner flange 420 is larger than the diameter of the bolt hole 224. The inner flange 420 is arranged outside the bolt hole 224 and on the inner side with respect to the bolt hole 224. Therefore, the inner flange 420 has a first inner facing surface 404 facing the peripheral portion of the bolt hole 224 in the hub mounting portion 220 in the wheel axial direction. In the present embodiment, the peripheral portion of the hub through hole 504 in the hub plate 500 is interposed between the peripheral portion of the bolt hole 224 and the first inner facing surface 404. That is, the hub plate 500 is sandwiched between the inner flange 420 of the inner bush 400 and the hub mounting portion 220 in the wheel axial direction.
また、インナーブッシュ400は、ホイール軸方向において、ハブ1の一部と対向する第2のインナー対向面403を有する。具体的には、第2のインナー対向面403は、インナーブッシュ400におけるインナー側の端面である。第2のインナー対向面403は、ホイール軸方向において、ハブ1におけるベース部2と対向する。ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とで締結した際には、第2のインナー対向面403は、ハブ1におけるベース部2に接触し、ベース部2からアウター側に向かう押圧力を受ける。なお、第2のインナー対向面403は、特許請求の範囲における第2の対向部に相当する。
Further, the inner bush 400 has a second inner facing surface 403 facing a part of the hub 1 in the wheel axial direction. Specifically, the second inner facing surface 403 is an end surface on the inner side of the inner bush 400. The second inner facing surface 403 faces the base portion 2 of the hub 1 in the wheel axial direction. When the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened together, the second inner facing surface 403 comes into contact with the base portion 2 of the hub 1 and receives a pressing force from the base portion 2 toward the outer side. The second inner facing surface 403 corresponds to the second facing portion in the claims.
さらに、インナーブッシュ400は、ハブ取付部220のボルト孔224内において、アウターブッシュ300の第3のアウター対向面306と対向する第3のインナー対向面406を有する。第3のインナー対向面406は、ホイール軸方向において、アウターブッシュ300のインナー側の第3のアウター対向面306と対向する。ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とで締結した際には、第3のインナー対向面406は、アウターブッシュ300の第3のアウター対向面306に突き当たる。ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4との締結前では、第3のインナー対向面406とアウターブッシュ300の第3のアウター対向面306とは互いに離間していてもよいが、接触していてもよい。
Further, the inner bush 400 has a third inner facing surface 406 facing the third outer facing surface 306 of the outer bush 300 in the bolt hole 224 of the hub mounting portion 220. The third inner facing surface 406 faces the third outer facing surface 306 on the inner side of the outer bush 300 in the wheel axial direction. When the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened together, the third inner facing surface 406 abuts on the third outer facing surface 306 of the outer bush 300. Before fastening the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4, the third inner facing surface 406 and the third outer facing surface 306 of the outer bush 300 may be separated from each other, but are in contact with each other. May be good.
また、車両用ホイール100では、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4との締結前において、アウターブッシュ300とインナーブッシュ400とが互いに保持するよう構成されている。具体的には、インナーブッシュ400におけるアウター側の先端部は、アウターブッシュ300におけるインナー側の先端部内に挿入可能とされている。また、インナーブッシュ400におけるアウター側の先端部の外周面には、溝408が形成されている。一方、アウターブッシュ300におけるインナー側の先端部の内周面には、該溝408に挿入可能な突部308が形成されている。このため、図3に示すように、アウターブッシュ300が弾性変形することにより、突部308が、インナーブッシュ400におけるアウター側の先端を乗り越えて溝408内に入り込む。これにより、アウターブッシュ300は、インナーブッシュ400を保持することができる。
Further, in the vehicle wheel 100, the outer bush 300 and the inner bush 400 are configured to hold each other before the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened. Specifically, the tip portion on the outer side of the inner bush 400 can be inserted into the tip portion on the inner side of the outer bush 300. Further, a groove 408 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the tip portion of the inner bush 400 on the outer side. On the other hand, a protrusion 308 that can be inserted into the groove 408 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the tip portion of the outer bush 300 on the inner side. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the outer bush 300 is elastically deformed so that the protrusion 308 gets over the tip of the inner bush 400 on the outer side and enters the groove 408. As a result, the outer bush 300 can hold the inner bush 400.

以上説明したように、本実施形態の車両用ホイール100では、図4に示すように、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とで締結した際に、アウターブッシュ300の第2のアウター対向面303がナット部材4からインナー側に向かう押圧力を受ける。また、インナーブッシュ400の第2のインナー対向面403がハブ1からアウター側に向かう押圧力を受ける。そして、その押圧力によって、ホイール本体101のハブ取付部220におけるボルト孔224の周囲部分が、アウターブッシュ300とハブ1との間に挟み込まれることにより、ホイール本体101をハブ1に取り付けることができる。さらに、本車両用ホイール100では、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とで締結した際に、インナーブッシュ400の第3のインナー対向面406が、アウターブッシュ300の第3のアウター対向面306に突き当たる。これにより、本実施形態によれば、第3のインナー対向面406を備えない構成に比べて、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4との締結によってホイール本体101の樹脂製のハブ取付部220に過剰なホイール軸方向の応力がかかることを抑制することができる。 A-2. Effect of this embodiment:
As described above, in thevehicle wheel 100 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, when the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened, the second outer facing surface of the outer bush 300 is used. 303 receives a pressing force from the nut member 4 toward the inner side. Further, the second inner facing surface 403 of the inner bush 400 receives a pressing force from the hub 1 toward the outer side. Then, due to the pressing force, the peripheral portion of the bolt hole 224 in the hub mounting portion 220 of the wheel body 101 is sandwiched between the outer bush 300 and the hub 1, so that the wheel body 101 can be mounted on the hub 1. .. Further, in the wheel 100 for this vehicle, when the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened, the third inner facing surface 406 of the inner bush 400 becomes the third outer facing surface 306 of the outer bush 300. Hits. As a result, according to the present embodiment, as compared with the configuration not provided with the third inner facing surface 406, the resin hub mounting portion 220 of the wheel body 101 is fastened by fastening the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4. It is possible to suppress excessive stress in the wheel axial direction.
以上説明したように、本実施形態の車両用ホイール100では、図4に示すように、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とで締結した際に、アウターブッシュ300の第2のアウター対向面303がナット部材4からインナー側に向かう押圧力を受ける。また、インナーブッシュ400の第2のインナー対向面403がハブ1からアウター側に向かう押圧力を受ける。そして、その押圧力によって、ホイール本体101のハブ取付部220におけるボルト孔224の周囲部分が、アウターブッシュ300とハブ1との間に挟み込まれることにより、ホイール本体101をハブ1に取り付けることができる。さらに、本車両用ホイール100では、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とで締結した際に、インナーブッシュ400の第3のインナー対向面406が、アウターブッシュ300の第3のアウター対向面306に突き当たる。これにより、本実施形態によれば、第3のインナー対向面406を備えない構成に比べて、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4との締結によってホイール本体101の樹脂製のハブ取付部220に過剰なホイール軸方向の応力がかかることを抑制することができる。 A-2. Effect of this embodiment:
As described above, in the
また、本実施形態によれば、アウターブッシュ300とインナーブッシュ400とは、ハブ取付部220に形成されたボルト孔224内において互いに突き当たる構成である(図3参照)。これにより、例えば、アウターブッシュ300とインナーブッシュ400とがボルト孔224の外(ボルト孔224に対してインナー側またはアウター側の位置)で突き当たる構成に比べて、アウターブッシュ300とインナーブッシュ400とのホイール軸方向に垂直な方向における相対的な位置ズレを抑制することができる。
Further, according to the present embodiment, the outer bush 300 and the inner bush 400 have a configuration in which they abut against each other in the bolt holes 224 formed in the hub mounting portion 220 (see FIG. 3). As a result, for example, the outer bush 300 and the inner bush 400 are compared with the configuration in which the outer bush 300 and the inner bush 400 abut on the outside of the bolt hole 224 (the position on the inner side or the outer side with respect to the bolt hole 224). Relative positional deviation in the direction perpendicular to the wheel axis direction can be suppressed.
また、本実施形態によれば、アウターブッシュ300は、インナーブッシュ400を保持する突部308を備えるため、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4との締結前において、アウターブッシュ300やインナーブッシュ400がボルト孔224から脱落することを抑制することができる。また、本実施形態では、インナーブッシュ400におけるアウター側の先端部は、アウターブッシュ300におけるインナー側の先端部内に挿入可能とされている。このため、アウターブッシュ300とインナーブッシュ400との軸ずれを抑制することができる。
Further, according to the present embodiment, since the outer bush 300 includes a protrusion 308 for holding the inner bush 400, the outer bush 300 and the inner bush 400 are provided before the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened. Can be prevented from falling out of the bolt hole 224. Further, in the present embodiment, the tip portion on the outer side of the inner bush 400 can be inserted into the tip portion on the inner side of the outer bush 300. Therefore, the misalignment between the outer bush 300 and the inner bush 400 can be suppressed.
また、本実施形態では、ハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とにより締結した際に、ハブプレート500がハブ取付部220とハブ1とにホイール軸方向で接触するため、締結による応力が、インナーブッシュ400だけでなく、ハブプレート500に分散される。これにより、本実施形態によれば、ハブプレート500を備えない構成に比べて、締結による応力がインナーブッシュ400に集中的にかかることを抑制することができる。しかも、本実施形態では、ホイール軸方向視で、ハブプレート500は、ハブ取付部220におけるインナーブッシュ400の周囲部分に全周に亘って接触する(図2参照)。このため、締結による応力がインナーブッシュ400の周囲部分に均等に分散される。これにより、締結による応力がインナーブッシュ400に集中し、ハブ取付部220の特定箇所に過剰なホイール軸方向の応力がかかることを、より効果的に抑制することができる。また、本実施形態によれば、ハブプレート500は、ホイール軸方向においてインナーブッシュ400のインナーフランジ420とハブ取付部220とで挟持されている。このため、例えばハブ1のセレーションボルト3とナット部材4とによる締結前においてハブプレート500が脱落することを抑制することができる。
Further, in the present embodiment, when the serration bolt 3 of the hub 1 and the nut member 4 are fastened, the hub plate 500 comes into contact with the hub mounting portion 220 and the hub 1 in the wheel axial direction, so that the stress due to the fastening is reduced. It is dispersed not only in the inner bush 400 but also in the hub plate 500. As a result, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent the stress due to fastening from being concentrated on the inner bush 400 as compared with the configuration without the hub plate 500. Moreover, in the present embodiment, the hub plate 500 comes into contact with the peripheral portion of the inner bush 400 in the hub mounting portion 220 over the entire circumference in the direction of the wheel axis (see FIG. 2). Therefore, the stress due to fastening is evenly distributed in the peripheral portion of the inner bush 400. As a result, it is possible to more effectively suppress the stress due to fastening from being concentrated on the inner bush 400 and the excessive stress in the wheel axial direction being applied to a specific portion of the hub mounting portion 220. Further, according to the present embodiment, the hub plate 500 is sandwiched between the inner flange 420 of the inner bush 400 and the hub mounting portion 220 in the wheel axial direction. Therefore, for example, it is possible to prevent the hub plate 500 from falling off before being fastened by the serration bolt 3 and the nut member 4 of the hub 1.
