Abstract:
A tire (1) comprising over at least part of its surface at least one applique (8). The applique (8) includes a first layer (9) in contact with the air and constituting the upper layer of the applique, and a second layer (10) in contact with the tire (1) and constituting the lower layer of the applique (8), said lower layer (10) of the applique including a bielastic fabric. The fabric used is preferably a bielastic knitted fabric, that is to say a mesh fabric of which the loops which form the mesh are capable of moving relative to one another in the knit direction and perpendicular to the knit direction.
Abstract:
A tire has a toroidal-shaped carcass and an airtight layer which contains at least one ductile metal layer. In one embodiment the airtight layer is a deformable metal layer having a thickness less than or equal to 5 &mgr;m applied on the interior surface of the tire carcass by a support carrier on which the metal layer has been deposited. The support carrier may be retained as part of the tire or removed after applying the metal layer on the interior surface of the tire carcass.
Abstract:
A decorative laminate for articles of elastomeric material in which a layer of pigments is sandwiched between an adhesive covering and a protective vering. The two coverings are produced from aqueous emulsions of at least one homopolymer or a copolymer having a base of at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylic, methacrylic and vinyl esters, and having a glass transition temperature less than 0.degree. C.
Abstract:
A process for cross-linking/expanding at least one cross-linkable, expandable blank, which is intended to form all or part of an elastomeric safety support for a tire in which: the cross-linking consists of curing the expandable or expanded blank in a bath of fluid at excess pressure which is contained in an enclosure, such that the blank interacts with the bath independently of the enclosure, the temperature of the bath having a maximum value of between 110° C. and 210° C. and the absolute pressure of said bath having at least a value equal to or greater than 14 bar, and the expansion consists of curing the cross-linkable or cross-linked blank in the bath, the temperature of the bath having a maximum value of between 110° C. and 210° C., and the absolute pressure of the bath having at least a value equal to or greater than 5 bar and a final pressure-relief value substantially equal to 1 bar, for expanding the blank such that its increase in volume is unlimited with respect to the enclosure.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for anti-ozone protection of at least a part of the outer surface of a vulcanized tire, where the composition of the tire is based on essentially unsaturated dienic elastomers. The present method comprises: (1) subjecting the surface of the vulcanized tire to a treatment in order to polarize and functionalize the elastomers of the surface; (2) applying at least one layer comprising an aqueous polyurethane dispersion to this treated surface; and (3) allowing this layer to dry until a protective coating is formed. The present invention further relates to a tire comprising an anti-ozone protective coating, where the protective coating is formed according to the method described above.
Abstract:
A zinc electrode comprising at least one active portion is improved due to the fact that the active portion has an open porosity of at least 60% and comprises electron-conductive fibers and due to the fact that the active material or materials are distributed practically uniformly throughout the active portion.
Abstract:
A tire is provided, on a surface thereof, an applicaiton having a top layer exposed to the air and a bottom layer in contact with the tire. The top layer can be a rigid element and/or a marking covering, or a device for measuring or monitoring the tire. The bottom layer is a foam having a void ratio of at least 40%, a thickness of at least 0.5 mm, and a density ranging from 0.02 g/cm3 to 0.5 g/cm3.

Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method of measuring the wear on at least one tire (20) mounted on a wheel (10) and comprising tread pattern elements (27, 28), and a tire (20), wheel (10), and a tire/wheel assembly (1) for implementing this method. According to the invention, the wear measurement method includes detecting electromagnetic energy transmitted through a transmission element disposed in at least one tire tread element to an internal space of the tire, the energy detected representative of a wear condition of the tread element or elements (27, 28). A tire (20) according to the invention comprises at least one device for transmitting electromagnetic radiation (50, 60), which device is disposed in at least one of tread element (27, 28) to conduct incident radiation striking the external surface to the tire (20) to the internal space, the transmission devices (50, 60) becoming exposed to the external surface upon a predetermined amount of wear of the tread element (27, 28).
