Concept tire future tire development direction


Tires are the only parts that contact the ground for cars, and they are the only bridge between the car and the road. In order to adapt to different environments, tire manufacturers have also continuously researched and developed tires. Of course, the invention of some tires with big brain holes is dazzling.

For the tire industry, what are the implications of these concept-filled tires for future cars?

Maxplo <br> <br> concept tire Kumho Tire introduced a concept called Maxplo of a tire. This tire can change its shape according to different driving environments.

It is understood that Maxplo tires can change shape for different conditions such as mud, snow or water. When the road surface is relatively dry, the Maxplo tires will automatically smooth the surface and increase driving speed. When the road surface is slippery, it will automatically switch over to prevent slipping through special grooves. When in the snow or When driving on the ice, the tire will automatically pop up and increase the grip.

Not only that, during driving, if the tire is off the road, Maxplo tires will increase the contact area to increase the attractiveness. To power the deformation of the tire, the inside of this tire is equipped with a hydrogen-powered electric hub motor.


The Maxplo concept tire measures 700 x 700 x 250 mm and weighs 26.4 pounds. Kumho company said that this kind of tires will take several years to design and develop, and it is not practical to assemble vehicles. However, it is certain that the function of automatically changing the texture of the tire surface will become the focus of many tire manufacturers in the future.

The TripleTube tire Triple Tube tire is a three-balloon tire that was developed by Goodyear and was exhibited for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show. TripleTube tires are based on traditional tires and have an extra layer of packages on the outside, divided into three separate air chambers.

In order to satisfy the grip under different conditions, this tire has a built-in air pump that can adjust the air pressure of each air chamber in real time. According to the difference of air pressure in each air chamber, three different modes of safety, movement and wetland can be realized.


In the safe mode, the three air chambers are filled and the air pressure inside the three air chambers is ensured to reach the maximum value. By optimizing the tire rigidity distribution, the rolling resistance of the tire is reduced, and the economic performance of the vehicle is improved.

In the sport mode, the air pressure on both sides of the tire will be separately reduced according to the direction of the vehicle's cornering, thereby forming a cross section that is the same as the direction of the body tilt, increasing the grip area of ​​the tire and increasing the laterality of the tire. Grip.

In the wet state, the pressure in the central air chamber reaches its maximum and the pressure on both sides of the air chamber is reduced, thereby pushing out the special pattern on the center of the tire to achieve greater pattern depth and drainage performance and improving the wet grip performance of the tire.

In the event of a puncture, even if multiple airbags leak, the air pump can continue to supply air to ensure that the vehicle can travel at a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour for 80 kilometers.

BH-03 tire BH-03 tire is an environmentally friendly tire, which can achieve the vehicle's energy recovery through active methods, and it has a bright future in the application of new energy vehicles.


The energy that can be collected by BH-03 mainly includes heat and kinetic energy of tire deformation. When the tire is stopped or running, it generates a lot of heat, which is dissipated in the current car tires, and it is also a loss to the tire. The BH-03 Concept Tire can be used internally to allow tires to absorb heat and convert it into electrical energy for storage, providing power support for electric vehicles, thereby providing improvements to the sensitive battery life of electric vehicles.

In the case of parking, the BH-03 concept tire heat collection device can absorb the ground heat. During the driving process, the heat collecting device collects the heat generated by the ground and the tire, converts the thermal energy into electricity by the thermoelectric material and stores it in the power battery of the vehicle to provide power for the electric vehicle. When the tire is deformed under pressure, the piezoelectric material converts the kinetic energy in the deformation of the tire into electrical energy that is stored in the vehicle's power battery.

There are many concept tires, such as magnetic suspension tires, retractable tires, etc., but they are still in the conceptualization stage. With the current technology and the concept of display, it is still impossible to achieve mass production. Concept tires make car tires more technologically sensible. Perhaps some of these attempts are the direction of future tire development.
