    摘要: A non-pneumatic tire and rim assembly is disclosed comprising a rim having a first and second bead ring holder (1000); and a non-pneumatic tire (100, 2000) having a shear band (300) and tread (200) forming a tread band, and a first and second sidewall region (400). The first and second sidewall regions (400) each extend from the tread band and terminate into a first and second respective bead area (420). A carcass ply (500) extends under a crown portion of the non-pneumatic tire (100), into the first and second sidewall regions (400) and to the first and second bead area (420). The first and second bead area (420) are each mounted on the first and second bead ring holder (1000). The carcass ply (500) is tensioned when each bead area (420) is mounted on the respective bead ring holder (1000) of the rim.

    摘要: A method for forming a tire composite tread (100, 110, 120, 130) is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: selecting a first tread compound having at least one first desired property, and selecting a second, different tread compound having at least one second desired property, forming a composite tread (100, 110, 120, 130) by winding a dual layer strip (210) having a first layer (212) formed of the first tread compound and a second layer (214) formed of the second compound, wherein the composite tread (100, 110, 120, 130) has a first and second zone, wherein each zone is formed by spirally winding the dual layer strip (210), wherein the first zone is formed of said dual layer strip (210) having a strip ratio of the volumetric proportion of the first tread compound to the second tread compound used to form the dual layer strip (210), and wherein the second zone has a different strip ratio of the volumetric proportion of the first tread compound to the second tread compound used to form the dual layer strip (210) than the first zone by varying the volumetric proportion of the first tread compound to the second tread compound. Also, tire having a component, preferably a tread, is disclosed. The component (100, 110, 120, 130) is formed from a continuous spiral winding of a dual layer strip (210) having a first layer (212) formed of a first compound, and a second layer (214) formed of a second, different compound, wherein the cross-sectional shape of the first layer is at least substantially triangular.

    摘要: A tire with a tread (108) formed with tread elements (124) including a dual angled chamfer (132) id disclosed. The tire (100) comprises a pair of sidewalls (106) extending radially outward to a tread (108) for ground engagement; a plurality of circumferentially extending grooves (118) extending about the tread (108) and defining a plurality of ribs (120); a plurality of laterally extending grooves (122) cooperating with the circumferential grooves (118) to divide the ribs (120) into tread elements (124); and a plurality of selected tread elements (124) being formed with a dual angled chamfer (132). Each of the selected tread elements (124) includes a body (126), a radially outer surface (128) for ground-engagement, a chamfer side (130) and a dual angled chamfer (132) being formed in the body (126) between the radially outer surface (128) and the chamfer side (130).
