Abstract: The carcass structure of a tire comprises one or more carcass plies each formed of strip lengths comprising longitudinal thread elements incorporated in a layer of elastomer material. The strip elements have respective crown portions disposed circumferentially in mutual side-by-side relationship, and side portions extending radially at the tire sidewalls. The side portions of each carcass ply are each at least partly covered with at least one of the side portions belonging to an adjacent deposition length. Associated with the carcass plies are annular structures comprising a pair of inextensible inserts in the form of an annulus which are anchored to the first and second carcass plies respectively and axially separated by an elastomeric filling body. A belt structure, a tread band, and sidewalls are combined with the carcass structure to define the tire.

Abstract: A tread for motor vehicle tires having circumferential grooves (3) and transverse grooves (4), a plurality of tread blocks (5, 6) circumferentially spaced apart to form two shoulder rows (5) and at least one central row (6) located between the shoulder rows. Each block (5, 6) is provided with one or more sipes or slits (11, 12) that are rectilinear and inclined with respect to the axis of rotation of the tire (2). The sipes (11, 12) of the blocks (5, 6) which constitute each of the shoulder and central rows are parallel to one another. The sipes (12) of the central rows (6) have an inclination, with respect to the axis of rotation, that is greater than the inclination of the sipes (11) of the blocks (6) which constitute the shoulder rows. This arrangement of the sipes (11, 12) substantially reduces the rolling noise of the tire.

Abstract: In the manufacture of a tire having a metal bead core, a covering structure (6) is associated with each bead core, which structure consists of a sheet (7) made of unvulcanized elastomeric material wrapped around the bead core and a strip of unvulcanized rubberized fabric (8), reinforced with heat-shrinkable material cords, wound around the elastomeric material sheet (7). The bead cores (3) are subsequently assembled with other tire components, and afterwards a tire vulcanization step is carried out. During this step the chemical bonding between the elastomeric sheet (7) and the bead core (3) is achieved, which bonding is promoted by the simultaneous shrinkage of the cords provided in the rubberized fabric strip (8).

Abstract: A method of molding and curing tires for vehicle wheels includes the steps of disposing a tire being processed on a toroidal support, enclosing the tire and the toroidal support inside a molding cavity defined in a vulcanization mould, pressing the outer surface of the tire against the molding cavity walls, and administering heat to the tire to cause molecular crosslinking of the tire. The pressing step includes the steps of compressing side portions of the tire between the molding cavity walls and the outer surface of the toroidal support, concurrently with the closing step, and imposing an expansion to a radially-outer portion of the tire to bring the radially-outer portion of the tire against the walls of the molding cavity.

Abstract: A method for determining the force at the hub of a wheel of a vehicle while traveling. The wheel includes a rim and at least one deformation sensor directly associated with the rim in at least one predetermined position and arranged according to at least one predetermined orientation. The method includes the steps of detecting at least one deformation component of the rim during travel through the at least one deformation sensor; applying to the at least one deformation component, during travel, a correlation parameter characteristic of the rim, between the force at the hub and the relative deformation of the rim to determine at least one force component at the hub correlated with the at least one deformation component of the rim. The determining of the correlation parameter preferably takes place through experimental tests that include the steps of providing a sample wheel having a rim substantially the same as that of the wheel and determining at least one correlation coefficient between at least one force component acting upon the sample wheel at the hub along at least one predetermined direction and at least one respective deformation component of the rim of the wheel.
