Solid tire manufacturers talk about the past and present life of tires



Tires are an indispensable part of a car. If a car is compared to a man, the wheels are equivalent to feet. We drove off with our tires moving everywhere. So how is the "foot" of a car made? What interesting tips do you have?



When it comes to tyres, we should say that the raw material for making tyres is rubber. Back more than 500 years ago, Columbus's fleet finally set foot on the South American continent after wandering at sea for a long time. He saw that the local Indian children often played a kind of pinball, which could bounce very high and would not be soaked by water. After some inquiry, I knew that this highly elastic ball was made of hardened rubber tree sap. Explorers brought marbles back to Europe as treasures, which was the first time that Europeans came into contact with rubber.



Over the next 300 years, rubber and tire have not been closely linked. It was not until the 1930s that a poor American inventor Goodyear developed the rubber vulcanization technology, which overcame the stubborn disease that rubber products became hard in cold weather and soft in hot weather. In fact, Goodyear himself was neither a chemist nor a scientist, but it was he. Even though he was poor and in debt, he was optimistic about the future of rubber commercialization. He took his home as his laboratory and continued to explore, and Z finally succeeded.



The application of rubber vulcanization technology is gradually reflected in the manufacture of daily necessities. In 1845, R · w · Thomson, a civil engineer born in Scotland, invented the pneumatic tire and won a patent from the British government under the title of "Improvement of Wheels of Wagons and Other Vehicles". The first pneumatic tire was born on December 10 of the same year. The first person who bought pneumatic tires was Luo Lie, an aristocrat. The total price of four tires was forty-four pounds and two shillings. In 1847, Science America magazine introduced Thomson's pneumatic tire, calling it an epoch-making improvement. In 1845, vulcanized rubber solid tire was developed.



The tire Z was white at first, because the rubber was white, and later developed into a common black; Tires were smooth at the beginning, without tattoos, but now they are full of tattoos.



With the development of science and technology, cars are developing towards a more intelligent direction. The intelligent development of tires has never stopped.



At the 2017 "Michelin Pioneering" Summit, Michelin demonstrated the innovative concept of VISION tires. This tire uses materials and 3D printing technology, which can change the tread according to the driving state and is renewable. In 2019, Goodyear's brand new concept tire was unveiled at the Geneva International Auto Show. It is a tire product that combines the needs of traditional road driving and flight driving.
