Abstract: A tube-type tire to be mounted on the rim of a (e.g., spoke-type) wheel such as that commonly used by a bicycle or a motorcycle, whereby the tube-type tire will operate without a conventional inner tube and as if it were tubeless. The tire includes a main tire section that is seated upon the generally flat shelf of the rim and a pneumatic sealing ring having an inner tube that is seated upon the beadwell of the rim. An air chamber of the inner tube of the sealing ring is inflated to a greater pressure than an air chamber of the main tire section so as to isolate the air chamber of the main tire section from the rim and force the main tire section against the vertical lip of the rim. The sealing ring also has an outer inflatable liner that is located in surrounding engagement with the inner tube to separate the inner tube from the air chamber of the main tire section. The outer liner has one or more O-ring seals projecting outwardly from the side walls thereof and a centering lip projecting downwardly from the side walls. The O-ring seals are moved into sealing engagement with the inside of the main tire section when the air chamber of the inner tube is inflated and the liner is expanded. The centering lips of the liner are seated upon the beadwell of the rim to cause the liner to be automatically centered over the inner tube.

Abstract: A run flat tire that includes a tire casing and an inner support fitted within which tire casing, with the inner support to support the tire casing load upon run flat tire deflation. The tire casing and inner support are for mounting to a rim, the tire casing side wall bead ends to fit against side wall ends of the inner support that are maintained against rim interior stepped sections. The inner support is formed from an elastomeric material, preferably by casting or molding methods, to include an interior arch shaped cavity centered under the inner support outer surface having at least one hundred forty (140) degrees and not more than one hundred eighty (180) degrees of arc, and has a uniform thickness between the inner support inner and outer surfaces that is selected to support a particular anticipated load, after tire deflation, to support, in compression, the tire load for a target distance and speed. The run flat tire includes a valve stem that passes air into the inner support that travels through holes formed through the inner support side walls.

Each of the inside and outside walls has a generally circular shape and has a central area having a circular opening therein. An inner peripheral wall extends between and is integrally coupled to an edge of each of the openings such that a generally airtight interior of the tire is defined. Each of a plurality of intermediate walls is positioned within the tire. Each of the intermediate walls extends between and is attached to the inner peripheral wall and the outer peripheral wall such that the intermediate walls radiate outwardly from the inner peripheral wall to the outer peripheral wall. Each of the intermediate walls extends between the inside wall and the outside wall such that each of a plurality of substantially air-tight chambers is defined between a pair of adjacent intermediate walls. The tire and the intermediate walls comprise an elastonmeric material.
