发明名称 Puncture-proof structure for tire
摘要 A puncture-proof structure for tires is provided. The structure forms a spare tire body that can be assembled rapidly and adapted to various tire types by being finely tuned. A tire using the spare tire body is puncture-proof such that when punctured by sharp articles or knifes, the tire can still work to make safe arrival at a nearby repair workshop. This saves a car driver who has a damaged tire from the trouble of shoving the car and from the danger of endangering his/her life, in turn ensuring the public traffic safety.

主权项 1. A puncture-proof structure for tires, the puncture-proof structure comprising: a tire, having two top inner edges thereof formed with hooked portions and being reinforced by cords arranged therein; two C-shaped holding pieces, each having a C-shaped body formed with plural through holes and notches; a C-shaped lining piece, having a C-shaped body formed with a plurality of through holes; a plurality of connecting members, each having plural pivot holes at two ends thereof; an adjusting member, having two ends thereof each formed with plural notches, wherein above each of the notches there is an engaging hole provided; a bridging member, having two ends thereof each formed with a pivot hole, wherein above each of the pivot holes there is a bulge; a plurality of hasps, each having two ends thereof formed with a pivot hole and an indentation, respectively; a pressing shaft, having two ends thereof formed with threaded holes, and including a through hole running radially therethrough, the pressing shaft being configured to fit in a through hole of a first locking block; a pressing bolt, having two ends thereof formed with threaded holes and including a threaded retaining hole running radially therethrough, the pressing bolt being configured to fit in a through hole of a second locking block; a pressing screw bolt, having plural positioning holes; a check nut; a combining block, having two lateral sides thereof provided with through holes and with a top thereof formed as an engaging valley, wherein the combining block has two lengthwise ends thereof diagonally formed with projecting portions and an engaging rib is formed above each of the through holes at the two sides of the combining block; the first locking block and the second locking block each having through holes formed at two sides thereof and having an engaging valley formed at a top thereof, wherein the locking block has two lengthwise ends thereof diagonally formed with projecting portions and a depressed portion is formed on one said side of the locking block; and a patch member, having an axial through hole and an engaging valley at a top thereof, wherein the patch member having two lengthwise ends thereof diagonally formed with projecting portions and is configured to work with two sleeves, the two sleeves axially sandwiching the patch member therebetween; the C-shaped lining piece being configured to be inserted into the combining block so that the through holes of the C-shaped lining piece are aligned with the through holes on the combining block, the two C-shaped holding pieces being such placed that the through holes thereof are aligned with the through holes on the combining blocks, so that screw bolts passing through the through holes of the C-shaped lining piece, the C-shaped holding pieces and the combining blocks hold the components together to form a C-shaped spare tire body, the two engaging ribs provided at the two sides of the combining block being engaged with notches formed on the C-shaped holding pieces, the spare tire body having front and rear ends thereof jointed by the locking blocks as a circle, the hollow locking block allowing the C-shaped lining piece to pass therethrough, the through holes of the locking block being aligned with the through holes of the C-shaped lining piece and the C-shaped holding pieces; the spare tire body and the tire being combined by engaging the engaging valleys of the combining blocks and the locking block with the hooked portions of the tire, and by having the through holes of the locking block that shapes the spare tire body and of the C-shaped holding pieces and of the C-shaped lining piece aligned with the pivot holes of the connecting member, of the bridging member, and of the hasp, so as to allow screws to pass all the holes and hold all the components together, the connecting member and the bridging member that connect two ends of the spare tire body having their pivot holes each aligned with one said threaded hole of the pressing shaft fixedly held by the through hole of one of the locking block or the threaded hole of the pressing bolt fixedly held by the through hole of the other of the locking block, the through hole of the pressing shaft receiving a pressing screw bolt, and the threaded retaining hole of the pressing bolt being configured to receive the pressing screw bolt that passes through the through hole of the pressing shaft; by screwing the pressing screw bolt in or out with respect to the threaded retaining hole, the spare tire body being finely tuned to fittingly engaged with the hooked portions of the tire; the check nut being screwed into the end of the pressing screw bolt to prevent looseness and ensure firm combination; therein, the depressed portions of the locking block leaving space that allows a jig to access and screw the pressing screw bolt and the check nut; one said adjusting member straddling the two connecting members, and a bolt passing the notch of the adjusting member, the pivot hole of the connecting member and the threaded holes of the pressing shaft and the pressing bolt holding the components together; additionally, another said adjusting member straddling two said hasps and a threaded bolt that passes a notch of the adjusting member, the indentation of the hasp, the pivot hole of the bridging member and the threaded holes of the pressing shaft and the pressing bolt holding the components together and being retained in the positioning hole of the pressing screw bolt; and the spare tire body thus being combined with the hooked portions of the tire; and the bulge on the bridging member abutting against an upper edge of the hasp so as to retain the hasp from escaping, and being configured to be fittingly inserted into the engaging hole of the adjusting member for enhanced firmness.
