Abstract:
A pneumatic safety tire having a ground-engaging tread portion, a pair of sidewall portions, a pair of bead portions, a carcass structure which extends from bead portion to bead portion, a tread-reinforcing belt structure placed circumferentially about the carcass structure and beneath the tread portion. Each sidewall is provided with reinforcing means which extend circumferentially and uninterruptedly along the internal surface of the tire from a point radially below the maximum section width of the tire to a point beneath the tread portion before reaching the mid-circumferential plane of the tire. The surface of the reinforcing means facing the tire cavity have generally a corrugated cross-sectional configuration as viewed in a plane perpendicular to the tire surface and radial plane of the tire. The corrugations lie in a plane substantially perpendicular to the mid-circumferential plane of the tire.
Abstract:
The wheel includes a tire, a rim, two groups of supporting members. The tire is coupled to the rim. The groups of supporting members are oppositely positioned and received in the tire. Each group of supporting members are separately positioned from each other. The supporting members of each group are coupled to an inner surface of the tire by injection method. Central axes of the supporting members of each group are coincident or parallel. A central axis of each supporting member is coincident with or parallel to a central axis of a central axis of the tire.
Abstract:
A runflat tire includes a tire body, a carcass extending from a tread portion through sidewall portions of the tire body to bead cores in bead portions of the tire body, and sidewall-reinforcing rubber layers having cross-sectional crescent shapes and positioned on inner sides of the carcass along the sidewall portions, respectively. The tire body has height Ha in range of 8˜17 mm where the height Ha is measured from a rim line of the tire body to inner edge of an innermost dimple/fin row of the tire body in radial direction of the tire body, the innermost row is formed in dimple/fin forming region including one or more dimple/fin rows having dimple/fin portions arrayed in circumferential direction of the tire body, and the dimple/fin forming region is formed on external surface of a sidewall portion on outer side of the rim line in the radial direction.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire 1 according to the present invention has turbulence generating protrusions on a tire surface, each of the turbulence generating protrusions having a sharp edge part. In the pneumatic tire, the following relationships are satisfied: 0.015≦H/√R≦0.64; 1.0≦p/H≦50.0; 0.1≦H/e≦3.0; 1.0≦L/H≦50.0; and 1.0≦(p−w)/w≦100.0, where “R” is a tire radius, “H” is a protrusion maximum height, “p” is a protrusion circumferential-direction interval, “e” is a protrusion radial-direction interval, “L” is a protrusion radial-direction length, and “w” is a protrusion circumferential-direction length.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire 1 in which turbulent-flow generating projections 10 each extending from an inner circumference side to an outer circumference side are provided on a outer circumferential face 3a which is tire surface of tire side portion 3 at intervals in a tire circumferential direction. Each of the turbulent-flow generating projections 10 includes an edge portion 10g when being viewed in a cross-sectional shape taken along a direction perpendicular to an extending direction thereof, and a front wall angle θ formed between a front wall face 10a of each turbulent-flow generating projection 10 and the tire surface (outer circumferential face 3a) is set in the range of 70° to 110°, the front wall face being hit by an airflow.

A runflat tire includes a tire body, a carcass extending from a tread portion through sidewall portions of the tire body to bead cores in bead portions of the tire body, and sidewall-reinforcing rubber layers having cross-sectional crescent shapes and positioned on inner sides of the carcass along the sidewall portions, respectively. The tire body has height Ha in range of 8˜17 mm where the height Ha is measured from a rim line of the tire body to inner edge of an innermost dimple/fin row of the tire body in radial direction of the tire body, the innermost row is formed in dimple/fin forming region including one or more dimple/fin rows having dimple/fin portions arrayed in circumferential direction of the tire body, and the dimple/fin forming region is formed on external surface of a sidewall portion on outer side of the rim line in the radial direction.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire comprises a sidewall reinforcing rubber disposed axially inside the carcass in each of the sidewall portion, and in order improving the ride comfort during normal running without deteriorating runflat performance, the axially inner surface of the sidewall reinforcing rubber is provided with a circumferentially extending groove. When the tire is deflated, the groove in the ground contacting patch is closed and the sidewall reinforcing rubber supports the tire load. When the tire is inflated-normally, as the sidewall portion can be bent around the groove, the ride comfort is improved.
