Abstract:
The joining force between a tire frame member and a bead core (18) is improved. A tire (10) includes: a tire frame member formed in a ring shape from a frame resin material, and including a pair of bead sections (12) disposed separated from each other along the tire width direction, a pair of side sections (14) that extend from the pair of bead sections (12) toward the tire radial direction outside, and a crown section (16) that connects together the pair of side sections (14); a ring shaped bead core (18) that is embedded in and joined to each of the bead sections (12), and that is formed by a single strand, or plurality of strands, of bead cord (18B) extending in the tire circumferential direction, and covered with, and joined to, a covering resin material; and an extension portion (100) that extends from each of the bead cores (18) in a direction that intersects with the tire circumferential direction when viewed from a tire side face, and that is joined to the tire frame member.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a non-pneumatic tire which is provided with an attachment body (11) attached to an axle, a ring-shaped body (13) which surrounds the attachment body (11) from the outside in a tire radial direction, and a coupling member (15) which displaceably couples the attachment body (11) and the ring-shaped body (13), wherein the coupling member (15) is formed of a synthetic resin material and a reinforcing member is embedded in the coupling member (15).
Abstract:
A non-pneumatic tire (1) of the present invention includes an attachment body (11) attached to an axle, an outer cylindrical body (13) which surrounds the attachment body (11) from the outside in a tire radial direction, a tread portion (16) which surrounds the outer cylindrical body (13) from the outside in the tire radial direction, and a coupling member (15) which displaceably couples the attachment body (11) to the outer cylindrical body (13), wherein, a spiral reinforcing layer (20) formed by spirally winding an element wire body in which one cord (42) or a plurality of cords (42) parallel to each other are embedded in a covering body on an outer circumferential surface of the outer cylindrical body (13) is bonded to the outer circumferential surface of the outer cylindrical body (13).
Abstract:
A tire that may improve pressure resistance and cut resistance. The tire (10) is provided with a tire carcass member (12) fabricated of resin and a reinforcing layer (14). The tire carcass member (12) includes a bead portion (20) covering a bead core (26), a side portion (22) extending to a tire radius direction outer side from the bead portion (20), and a crown portion (24) extending to a tire width direction inner side from the side portion (22). The reinforcing layer (14) is provided with a plurality of cords (34) that are covered with resin or rubber, extends from the bead portion (20) of the tire carcass member (12) toward the side portion (22), and covers at least an outer periphery face of the side portion (22).
Abstract:
A tire manufacturing method includes: a frame forming process of forming a tire frame member using a resin material; an unvulcanized rubber placement process of disposing unvulcanized rubber so as to span from an outer face of a side portion across to an inner face of a bead portion of the tire frame member; and a vulcanization process of vulcanization molding the unvulcanized rubber using a vulcanization machine in which a recessed portion is formed in an inner side mold face among mold faces for vulcanization molding the unvulcanized rubber, the inner side mold face being for vulcanization molding part of the unvulcanized rubber disposed on the inner face of the bead portion.
Abstract:
The objective is to reduce the rolling resistance of a tire. A tire (10) includes: a tire frame member (12) that is made from a resin material and is provided with side portions (18) positioned at each tire axial direction side, shoulder portions (20) that are connected to the tire radial direction outside end portions of the side portions (18) and that are curved so as to protrude toward a tire outside in a tire axial direction cross-section, and a flat crown portion (22) connected to the shoulder portions (20); a reinforcing layer (14) that is provided along an outer surface (22A) of the crown portion (22), and that has tire axial direction outside end portions (14A) that are positioned further toward a tire axial direction inside than tire axial direction outside end portions of the flat crown portion (22); and a tread (16) that is provided at a tire radial direction outside of the crown portion (22) and the reinforcing layer (14).
Abstract:
Tire frame step portions 18 are formed to a tire frame member 17. The tire frame step portions 18 are formed further toward the tire equatorial plane side than tire axial direction end portions 30A of a tread member 30. Covering layers 24 are formed at the outside of the tire frame member 17 so as to span from bead portions to the tire frame step portions 18.
