Abstract

The configuration of the 22.5 × 9.00 hot-stamped lightweight wheel was optimized based on finite element stress analysis in this article. To reach the goal of reducing working stress and meeting the experimental requirements along with the experimental enhancement coefficient, under the optimized condition for the wheel weight being 28 kg, the finite element stress analysis was carried out on the following three optimizations: increasing the spoke’s thickness, modifying the shape and size of the windows, and setting up 3 mm-depth recessed structures between the windows. With the experimental enhancement coefficient of the bending fatigue test as 1.1 and the experimental enhancement coefficient of the radial loading fatigue test as 1.6, the numerical simulation results showed that the wheel’s stress under bending and radial loading conditions decreased by 35.9% and 26.83% respectively after configuration optimization, which successfully achieved the requirements of the 28 kg lightweight wheel.
