辐条是从车轮中心的轮毂(即与轴相连的地方)辐射出来的杆、条等,它把轮毂和圆形的轮圈连接起来。
历史
[编辑]辐条轮的出现使车辆更加轻便。辐条最早出现在公元前2000年的安德罗诺沃文化中。不久之后,高加索地区的游牧民族就使用了装有辐条轮的马战车,持续将近三个世纪。他们随后开始迁移,深入希腊半岛,与当地的地中海民族汇合,在米诺斯文明消亡之后建立了古典希腊(后被斯巴达吞并)。凯尔特人则在公元前几百年就在战车车轮外加上了铁圈。这种辐条轮一直沿用至1870年代,这时钢丝轮和橡胶轮胎问世了。[1]
类型
[编辑]辐条的材质可以是木头、金属、合成纤维等,这取决于辐条是受拉还是受压。
压缩辐条
[编辑]木质辐条轮最早用于马车和马拉的货车。早期的机动车用的通常是装在炮架上的木质辐条轮。
简易的木质轮轮毂受压时,轮圈靠近地面的地方会略有凹陷,最低的一根木质辐条因受压而变短,而其他的辐条则没有明显变化。
木质辐条常沿半径方向安装,同时呈向外的碟形,以避免车辆摇晃。通过增加碟形的程度还能抵消辐条因受潮而产生的膨胀。[2]
张力辐条
[编辑]自行车的车轮不是笨重的木质辐条轮,而是钢丝轮。这种车轮更加轻便,它的辐条是拉紧但可调节的金属丝。轮椅、摩托车、汽车也用这种车轮。
类型
[编辑]有些车轮的辐条可以一根根取下,若有弯曲或折断便能更换。自行车和轮椅车轮的辐条就是这样。质量高的自行车所配的常规车轮用的是不锈钢辐条,而比较便宜的自行车用的是镀锌或镀铬的辐条。高质量的辐条可承受225千克力,不过实际使用时负载只有它的几分之一以避免疲劳损坏。因为自行车和轮椅的辐条只会处于拉伸状态,其材质也可以是柔韧性强的材料(如合成纤维)。[3]
对负载的反应
[编辑]当编得很好的钢丝辐条轮承受径向负载(如车手坐在自行车上)时,车轮与地面接触处附近会略有凹陷,其余部分则基本保持圆形。[4][5][6][7] 所有辐条的张力都没有显著增加,轮毂正下方的辐条张力还有所降低。[8][9][10][11] 对如何描述这种情形存在争议。[12] 有人认为轮毂“站”在正下方那根张力减小的辐条上,[6][8] 还有人认为轮毂“挂”在正上方那根张力较大的辐条上。[10][13]
虽然钢丝轮的辐条又细又柔韧,但沿半径方向却是刚性的,所以辐条的悬挂随动与高压自行车轮胎相比都不值一提。 [14][15][16][17]

I conclude that it is perfectly reasonable to say that the hub stands on the lower spokes, and that it does not hang from the upper spokes.

A little known semantic debate ... has been raging on the usenet newsgroups for quite some time. The point of contention in this debate is whether or not a loaded bicycle wheel "stands" on the bottom spokes or "hangs" from the top ones?

The system of load transmission is analogous to that of a cycle wheel where the hub hangs by the steel wire spokes from the top of the rim, which is loaded at the bottom.

Radial Stiffness: There's almost -no- vertical compliance in your wheel and people who insist that they can feel the vertical stiffness or “harshness” of a wheel are mistaken. The radial stiffness of a bicycle wheel is ~ 3-4000 N/mm. This equals a deflection of 0.1 mm under a 40 kg load. Sorry princess, but that gets obscured by the amount of deflection in the tires, fork, saddle, handlebar tape, frame, and even your gloves.

radial wheel stiffness (N/mm): 2500-5000
- ^ Ian. Spoke Patterns. astounding.org.uk. 2002 [2012-06-25]. (原始内容存档于2021-04-14).
A radially spoked wheel is about 4.6% stiffer than a tangentially spoked one. Alternatively, if you apply 1000N (about 100kg, 220lb) to each of the wheels, the tangential (four-cross) spoked one deflects 0.0075mm (0.0003 inch) more than the radial spoked. Since the tyre is likely to deflect several millimetres at least (if 3mm, that's 400 times more deflection) I conclude the spoking is unlikely to make a discernible difference to the vertical stiffness of the wheel.

There is no change in radial elasticity between a radial and crossed spoke wheel with the same components, other than the length of the spokes. A 290 mm spoke is 3% stiffer than a 300 mm spoke of the same type. Since spokes stretch elastically about 0.1mm on a hard bump (not ordinary road ripples), the elastic difference between the radial and cross-three wheel is 3% x 0.1mm = 0.003 mm. Copier paper is 0.075 mm thick, and if you can feel that when you ride over it on a glassy smooth concrete surface, please let me know. You have greater sensitivity than the lady in "the princess and the pea" fable.
