Abstract:
A retreaded pneumatic truck tire includes a used carcass having a uniform annular attachment area and a retread element. The retread element secures to the attachment area of the used carcass. The retread element has a tread pattern comprising a first circumferential groove separating the tread pattern into a first shoulder rib and an intermediate rib and a second circumferential groove separating the tread pattern into the intermediate rib and a second shoulder rib. The tread pattern further comprises a first plurality of identical arcuate notches extending axially and circumferentially across the first circumferential groove and a second plurality of identical arcuate notches extending axially and circumferentially across the second circumferential groove. The first plurality of arcuate notches are offset circumferentially from the second plurality of arcuate notches.
Abstract:
An instrument (2, 3) for the introduction of an osteochondral transplant (P) which is removed form a harvest location, or of an implant which is correspondingly prepared in vitro at an implantation location, has a passage (201, 301) in which the transplant is received and a piston (31) for the pressing out of the transplant (P) from the distal end of the passage into a depression which is prepared at the implantation location. A space for the reception of a buffer medium (F) with a high conformability and an elasticity which is dimensioned in such a manner that no bodily contact between the piston (31) and the transplant (P) or the implant respectively exists during the pressing out of the transplant (P) is provided between the end surface (311) of the piston (31) facing the transplant (P) and the surface of the transplant (P) facing the piston (31).
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a pneumatic radial ply truck tire having a tread with a tread depth D, at least two circumferential grooves dividing the tread into at least a first shoulder circumferential rib, an intermediary circumferential rib, and a second shoulder circumferential rib, the tire being characterized by the tread having a base region disposed at depth D and a cap region over the base region, the base region and the cap region adjoining along a boundary, the cap region comprising a cap rubber composition having properties measured at 23° C. of: elongation of 400 to 500%, true tensile of 77 to 83 MPa, 300% modulus of 9 to 11 MPa, tensile strength of 14 to 15 MPa, shore A hardness of 63 to 68, rebound of 20 to 25%; and the base region comprising a base rubber composition having properties measured at 23° C. of: elongation of 470 to 520%, true tensile of 135 to 150 MPa, 300% modulus of 13 to 15.5 MPa, tensile strength of 22 to 25 MPa, shore A hardness of 63 to 67, rebound 50 to 55%.
