WHEEL FOR MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

The wheel for a motor vehicle is composed essentially of a fiber composite material, wherein the spokes of the wheel are each formed with a longitudinally extending cavity and said cavity is fluidically connected to a rim well or to a tire-rim space formed by the rim well and a mounted tire via an air passage opening, with the result that both monitoring of the hollow spokes for damage and in the case of tire damage is possible by a tire pressure monitoring device arranged in the wheel.

主权项

1. A wheel for a motor vehicle having air openings, which are arranged between wheel spokes of a rim spider, a rim well extending from the wheel spokes, a rim flange with an adjoining rim hump extending from the rim well, wherein the vehicle wheel with the rim spider and the rim well is composed of a fiber composite material and the wheel spokes are embodied as hollow spokes having longitudinally extending cavities, which are each fluidically connected via air passage openings to a tire-rim space formed by the rim well and a mounted vehicle tire such that the longitudinally extending cavities are subjected to an air pressure prevailing in the tire-rim space, and the air pressure in the longitudinally extending cavities and in the tire-rim space is in fluid communication with a tire pressure monitoring device arranged in the wheel.
