Abstract:
A pneumatic bias tire including a two-ply carcass layer comprising an inner carcass ply and an outer carcass ply, which respectively comprise cords of an aromatic polyamide fiber and cords of nylon, the cords of the inner carcass ply crossing the cords of the outer carcass ply, the outer carcass ply having a cord angle .beta. to the circumferential direction of the tire which is smaller than a cord angle .alpha. of the inner carcass ply to the tire circumferential direction.
Abstract:
A tire for a two-wheeled vehicle, particularly, a bicycle intended for a racing purposes having an improved running stability, superior durability and impact resistance, and reduced weight. The tire includes a carcass layer formed by arranging cord belts with a rubber paste coated thereon in such a manner that the cords of the cord belts cross each other. A tube is fitted to the inside of the carcass layer, and a rubber tread portion is bonded to the outer periphery of the carcass layer. The cord belt is produced in bias form with alternately arranged cords superior in durability and impact resistance and cords superior in adhesion with rubber. The two types of cords may be equal in number, or a majority of one of the two types of cords employed, depending upon the precise application of the tire and the conditions under which it is intended for use.
Abstract:
A space saving spare tire usually stored in a vehicle and used in the case of emergency travel on road when a puncture failure or the like is induced in a tire mounted on the vehicle and run on road. The spare tire comprises an internal pressure penetration preventive cord layer superimposed about the crown portion of a toroidal carcass and a cushion rubber layer interposed between the internal pressure penetration preventive cord layer and the toroidal carcass and having a gauge which is at least equal to that of a coating rubber interposed between the carcass plies.
Abstract:
A safety pneumatic tire which can run under its punctured condition.The tire is provided between a sidewall reinforcing layer and a tread wall reinforcing layer with a reduced thickness portion which can easily susceptible to bending deformation so as to notify a driver by his bodily sensation that the tire is punctured.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire for high speed running vehicles having an aspect ratio of 0.25 to 0.75 and a carcass composed of at least two plies each formed of a textile cord layer including parallel cords crossed with those of the other ply. The carcass satisfies the following conditions:(1) The cord has an initial modulus of at least 100 g/denier;(2) The cords are embedded in rubber having a modulus of elasticity at 300% elongation of 100 to 250 kg/cm.sup.2 ;(3) The cords are inclined at an angle of 20.degree. to 40.degree. with respect to the equatorial plane of the tire;(4) The cords have a gap ratio in each ply of 10 to 65% and a gap ratio between adjacent plies of 22 to 83%.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire having a lug pattern is disclosed. The tire comprises a breaker composed of a plurality of plies superimposed one upon the other and each having an offset projected from the equatorial plane of the tire and a textile cord cover layer superimposed about the breaker and extending across two sidewalls. The cords of the breaker plies are disposed along two directions crossed through the textile cord cover layer at an angle of a range between 50.degree. and 130.degree. with respect to the axial direction of the lug.
Abstract:
A bias tire having numerous carcass plies reinforced with nylon cords and a pair of breaker strips embedded in the carcass plies in the area of the tread of the tire. The breaker strips are reinforced with wire cords. The wire cords of the breaker strips and the nylon cords of the carcass plies are disposed at substantially the same angles. A cap strip covers the breaker strips and carcass plies in the area of the tread. The cap strip is a single layer of nylon cords which are disposed at substantially the same angles as the cords of the carcass plies and breaker strips. The ends of the cap strip extend into the sidewalls of the tire.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire for off-road vehicles, which is highly durable under heavy load conditions is disclosed. The tire makes use as its breaker of a reinforcing element formed of material having a high cut resistant property such as steel or glass. The least possible number of those plies of a plurality of rubberized ply layers of a carcass body which extend from a crown portion of the tire through both side portions up to both bead members and which can substantially withstand internal pressure applied to the tire and external force subjected thereto is determined on the basis of a fundamental safety factor .xi. and which lies within a range of a correction safety factor .eta. which depends on the use and type of the tire and the depth of tread groove.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an improvement in a pneumatic tire for construction vehicles. The improved tire makes use of a steel cord breaker, but can prevent mechanical and thermal separations in the tire. Breaker rubberized cords are designed to have a gap ratio given by ##EQU1## preferably 0.72 to 0.80, for the purpose of restraining the mechanical separation, where D is a distance between centers of two adjacent cords and d is a diameter of the cord. A tread rubber layer is designed to have a ratio R of a skid base S to a tire section height H given by ##EQU2## FOR THE PURPOSE OF RESTRAINING THE THERMAL SEPARATION.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tire having three plies of continuous tire cord fabric extending at successively alternating bias angles with respect to the centerplane and from bead to bead with one ply having extra high denier cords and being sandwiched between the other two plies which have normal denier cords.The foregoing abstract is not to be taken as limiting the invention of this application, and in order to understand the full nature and extent of the technical disclosure of this application, reference must be made to the accompanying drawings and the following detailed description.
