  • 1. What Is Uptis and What Advantages Does It Offer?
    Frequently Asked Questions 1. What is Uptis and what advantages does it offer? Uptis (acronym standing for “Unique Puncture-proof Tire System”) is an assembled airless wheel structure. Uptis has been made possible through Michelin’s mastery and expertise with tire mechanics and high-tech materials. It also represents an evolution of Michelin’s expertise in TWEEL technology. Uptis can be thought of as the first in a new generation of airless solutions. This technology for passenger vehicles offers a number of advantages: ▪ Car drivers feel safer and more secure on the road due to the reduced risk of flat tires and other air loss failures that result from punctures or road hazards. ▪ Fleet owners and professional vehicle drivers optimize their business productivity (no downtime from flats, near-zero levels of maintenance). ▪ Raw material use is reduced, which in turn reduces waste. 2. Why do car drivers feel more at ease with Uptis? Uptis is designed to be impervious to traditional tire failures due to air loss. It does not use compressed air. It therefore eliminates the need for regular inflation pressure maintenance. 3. What is the strategy behind Uptis? Uptis represents Michelin’s vision for the future of mobility. Michelin illustrated its vision of sustainable mobility through the Vision concept1, which the Group unveiled at the Movin’On World Summit on Sustainable Mobility in 2017. Uptis shows how Michelin is adhering to its roadmap for research and development, which comprises these four main pillars of innovation: Airless, Connected, 3D-printed and 100% Sustainable (i.e., renewable or bio-sourced materials).

  • The History of the Wheel and Bicycles
    NOW & THE FUTURE THE HISTORY OF THE WHEEL AND BICYCLES COMPILED BY HOWIE BAUM OUT OF THE 3 BEST INVENTIONS IN HISTORY, ONE OF THEM IS THE WHEEL !! Evidence indicates the wheel was created to serve as potter's wheels around 4300 – 4000 BCE in Mesopotamia. This was 300 years before they were used for chariots. (Jim Vecchi / Corbis) METHODS TO MOVE HEAVY OBJECTS BEFORE THE WHEEL WAS INVENTED Heavy objects could be moved easier if something round, like a log was placed under it and the object rolled over it. The Sledge Logs or sticks were placed under an object and used to drag the heavy object, like a sled and a wedge put together. Log Roller Later, humans thought to use the round logs and a sledge together. Humans used several logs or rollers in a row, dragging the sledge over one roller to the next. Inventing a Primitive Axle With time, the sledges started to wear grooves into the rollers and humans noticed that the grooved rollers actually worked better, carrying the object further. The log roller was becoming a wheel, humans cut away the wood between the two inner grooves to create what is called an axle. THE ANCIENT GREEKS INVENTED WESTERN PHILOSOPHY…AND THE WHEELBARROW CHINA FOLLOWED 400 YEARS AFTERWARDS The wheelbarrow first appeared in Greece, between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE. It was found in China 400 years later and then ended up in medieval Europe. Although wheelbarrows were expensive to purchase, they could pay for themselves in just 3 or 4 days in terms of labor savings.

This new structure builds upon seals, and energy absorption components previous work related to airless tires that were designed for rovers that may offer advantages used in planetary exploration. The use of SMAs capable of over conventional systems undergoing high strain as load bearing components results in a tubular structure that can withstand excessive deformation without permanent damage. These structures are capable of performing similarly to traditional pneumatic tires but with no risk of puncture or loss of tire pressure. The new technology is an extension of previous nonpneumatic metal-mesh tire designs developed at GRC, but with a structural pattern that improves manufacturability and offers design flexibility for customization. The innovation has been prototyped for use as a bicycle tire, but this SMA structure can be used in a wide range of applications including, off-road vehicles, aircraft landing gear, military ground vehicles, agricultural machinery, seals, and technology energy absorbers.

  • Design and Analysis of Air Less Tires
    Ramachandra .R, International Journal of Advance Research, Ideas and Innovations in Technology. ISSN: 2454-132X Impact factor: 4.295 (Volume3, Issue5) Available online at www.ijariit.com Design and Analysis of Air less Tires Dr. R. Ramachandra 1 Principal and Professor Department of Mechanical Engineering Sri Krishnadevaraya Engineering College, Gooty, Andra Pradesh [email protected] Abstract: An airless tire is a solitary unit supplanting the pneumatic tire, in getting assembly. It replaces every one of the segments of a regular outspread tire and is comprised of an unbending center point, associated with a shear band by methods for adaptable, deformable polyurethane spokes and a tread band, all working as a solitary unit. The Tweel, a sort of airless tire, however, discovers its nonspecific application in military and earth moving applicant particles because of its level confirmation configuration can render the pneumatic tire out of date in do mastic autos. Our project includes outline an investigation of an airless tire for doing mastic autos; this will be followed by an anxiety examination contemplate.

They are used in small vehicles, for example, riding yard cutters and mechanized golf trucks. They are additionally used in overwhelming hardware, for example, excavators, which are required to work on locales, for example, building obliteration, where the danger of tire punctures is high.
