摘要:
The subject invention relates to a method of preparing a tire inner surface to attain better adhesion of balance pads, puncture sealants, and noise reduction foams. In this method a strip of multi-axially stretchable film is adhered to the inner surface of an uncured tire with a pressure-sensitive adhesive. Then a release agent coating is applied to the film strip on the inner surface of the uncured tire which is subsequently cured in a suitable mold at an elevated temperature. The cured tire is then removed from the mold and after allowing the cured tire to cool the annular circumferential film strip is removed from the inner surface of the tire to provide a circumferential release coating-free tire inner surface onto which balance pads, puncture sealants, and noise reduction foams can be adhered.

A method of preparing a tire inner surface includes providing an uncured tire having an inner surface, placing a strip of multi-axially stretchable blend film on a circumferential surface of the inner surface, wherein one end of the overlapped splice joined by a pressure-sensitive adhesive for easy removal of the strip from the inner surface, applying a release agent coating to the annular, circumferential film strip and the inner surface of the uncured tire, shaping and curing the uncured tire with the release coating on the annular circumferential film strip and inner surface in a suitable mold at an elevated temperature, removing the cured tire from the mold and allowing the cured tire to cool, and removing the annular circumferential film strip with its release coating by use of a film strip to provide a circumferential release coating-free tire inner surface of the cured tire for adhering balance pads, puncture sealants, and noise reduction foams.

A self-balancing pneumatic tire is provided having a built-in balancing gel system. In one embodiment, the tire, before cure, includes a green pneumatic tire assembly having an uncured tread defining an outermost layer; a first barrier layer; a second barrier layer situated adjacent the first barrier layer and intermediate the first barrier layer and the tread; and first and second gel precursors. The gel precursors are non-flowable prior to cure but flowable after cure. The gel precursors are respectively contained within spaced-apart first and second circumferential regions defined by confronting, non-contacting surfaces of the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer, each circumferential region further situated proximate opposing sidewalls of the tire and having a width of about 5 percent to about 25 percent of a final tread width obtained upon curing of the uncured tire assembly. In one example, the first and/or second barrier layers can be discontinuous.

The present invention is directed to a pneumatic tire with a built-in sealant layer composite where the composite is composed of polyurethane with a thin layer of at least one of particulate filler, short fibers and non-woven microfiber. In one embodiment, said polyurethane sealant composite is comprised of a plurality of circumferentially extending layers comprised of a first polyurethane sealant layer, a second polyurethane sealant layer and a thin layer of polyurethane sealant-containing non-woven microfiber positioned between said first and second polyurethane layers. In another embodiment, said polyurethane sealant is a composite comprised of a polyurethane sealant layer containing a thin layer of at least one of particulate filler and short fibers.

A pneumatic tire and a method of making a tire are provided. The tire includes a tire tread, a tire layer, and a barrier layer. The tire layer is circumferentially disposed inwardly of the tire tread and includes a first end and a second end situated adjacent each other to define a butt joint. The barrier layer includes a first end and a second end, a portion of the first end of the barrier layer overlaps the second end by about 1.5 cm or more to define a lap joint, and where the first end of the barrier layer is received between and extends beyond the butt joint such that the first end of the tire layer is sandwiched between the lap joint.

The present invention is directed to a method for making a tire having a foam noise damper, comprising the steps of: pressing a barrier layer onto an exposed virgin surface of a green tire innerliner to adhere the barrier layer to the virgin surface and thereby form a protected green innerliner; curing the protected green innerliner; removing the barrier layer to reveal the virgin surface; and securing a foam noise damper to the virgin surface.
