Abstract: A method for reducing the working temperature of a tire tread for vehicles utilizing a tire tread comprising a first portion and a second portion. The first portion comprising 100 parts by weight of an elastomeric material, 40-120 parts by weight of a filler, comprising from 50 to 100% by weight of carbon black and from 0 to 50% of silica, and 3-40 parts by weight of at least a conventional additive. The second portion comprising 100 parts by weight of an elastomeric material, 40-120 parts by weight of a filler, comprising from 30 to 100% by weight of silica and from 0 to 70% of carbon black, and 3-40 parts by weight of at least a conventional additive. However, the silica content in the second portion is at least 20% higher than in the first portion. Tires wherein the area of the first portion exceeds 37.1% of the total area of the tire tread are also disclosed.

Abstract: A tire tread band for medium/heavy duty motor-vehicles having circumferential grooves confining three pairs of respectively center, intermediate and shoulder ribs. Respective tread blocks are defined along the center and intermediate ribs and they are confined by transverse cuts. The center cuts impart a cusp-shaped end conformation and a hollow-shaped end conformation to the respective blocks, and the shapes of said end portions mutually match. The intermediate cuts run in the linear extension of the center cuts to give the respective blocks a rhomboidal configuration. The tire can be alternately associated with a driving axle or a driven axle, by merely reversing its direction of rotation, so that the following results are selectively achieved: an increase in the traction capability by the intermediate blocks or an increase in the directional capability as a result of the mutual wedging between the center blocks at the ground-contacting area.

Abstract: A method of designing a tread unit that may be repeated in succession about the circumference of a tire to produce an acoustically acceptable tread pattern. The impact of an initial design of a tread unit on a road surface is simulated so that a determination of the number of pulses contained in the impact may be made. An analysis is then performed, based on the number of pulses, as to whether the tread unit design satisfies a predetermined acoustic criteria. If the tread unit design satisfies the acoustic criteria, it may be incorporated into the tire tread pattern. Otherwise, the method may be repeated with a modified tread unit design until the predetermined acoustic criteria is satisfied.

Abstract: A very soft polyurethane composition is provided having a low level of an aromatic phosphate or phosphonate plasticizer that will perform well as a self-sealing liner to flat-proof pneumatic tires, and will withstand the high temperatures of the tire retread process and still be functional. The liner is produced by a method of meter-mixing an isocyanate component and a high molecular weight polyol component system that can be poured directly into the tire to be lined as it is being rotated to spread the material uniformly in the tire until it sets up and will not cold flow. Also, the meter-mixed liner material can be poured on a flat surface of release paper to form sheet stock that can be cut into strips and then applied to the inner lining of the tire at a later time.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire and a method of manufacturing the tire are disclosed. The tread portion is provided with a bag-like portion filled with a puncture sealant. The bag-like portion is formed by interposing an anti-adhesive sheet for preventing adjacent tire materials from bonding each other. The sealant includes a substance which dissolves the anti-adhesive sheet, whereby the bag-like portion is filled with the sealant including the anti-adhesive sheet in solution. The sealant may include water and propylene glycol, and in this case, a water soluble plastics film which is, for example, made of polivinyl alcohol obtained by hydrolyzing polyvinyl acetate is preferably used as the anti-adhesive sheet.
