摘要:
A pneumatic tire for passenger cars has a tread and left and right beads, the beads each having a bead core embedded therein with a bead filler disposed on the outer circumferential side of the bead core, at least one carcass ply being arranged to extend between the beads, the carcass ply having reinforcing cords which extend in a width direction of the tire and are aligned at a predetermined interval along a circumferential direction of the tire, and two belt plies being disposed on the outer circumferential side of the carcass ply in the tread. An average of residual strain of the reinforcing cords of an innermost carcass ply is set to −10% to 5% in each side region located between an outer circumferential end of the bead filler and an end of an overlapping portion of the two belt plies.

Provided are a pneumatic radial tire production method which enables to improve uniformity of a tire and also to prevent a separation failure caused by trapped air, and a belt tread assembly transfer apparatus used for the method. A pneumatic radial tire production method includes the steps of forming a primary green tire including a carcass layer; forming a cylindrical belt tread assembly including belt layers; transferring the belt tread assembly to the outer peripheral side of the primary green tire by use of a transfer apparatus; and pressure-bonding the belt tread assembly to the primary green tire inflated in a toroidal shape. In the method, the primary green tire and the belt tread assembly are pressure-bonded to each other in a state where the transfer apparatus allows a center portion of the belt tread assembly to swell while holding both sides of the belt tread assembly.

A pneumatic radial tire for a passenger vehicle, characterized in that at least a portion of a carcass line extending radially outwardly from the maximum width position in a carcass line of a tire fitted to a normal rim and inflated up to its normal internal pressure is configured so as to substantially conform to an equilibrium carcass line expressed by the following equations (1) and (2) calculated by using an internal pressure allotment ratio g(y) of a carcass layer at the tread portion that is obtained by setting the distributional configuration index .alpha. of the following equation (3) at 4 or more, and that the width of the belt layer extending radially outwardly of the tire is made to range from 105 to 120% of the ground-contacting width of the tread portion when loaded with a designed normal load, wherein: ##EQU1## wherein, provided that a line drawn vertically downwardly from the center of the tread portion to the axle of the tire is y axis of coordinates with the axle of the tire being z axis of coordinates, yA, yD, yC, yB and .eta. denote as follows:yA: y axis of coordinates for the carcass line at the center of the tread portion;yD: y axis of coordinates for the carcass line at the effective width end portion of the belt layer;yC: y axis of coordinates for the carcass line at the maximum width position in a tire carcass line;yB: y axis of coordinates for the carcass line at the bead portion; and.eta.: the internal pressure allotment ratio of the carcass layer at the center of the tread portion.

摘要:
A radial tire for passenger cars comprising a turnup portion of a carcass layer provided along the body of the carcass layer at a bead portion which has not been folded back and an upper bead filler provided outside the turnup portion, wherein the upper bead filler has a textile cord layer on both of its inside and outside, thereby holding the upper bead filler between the textile cord layers.
