Abstract:
The invention relates to a collapsible tyre for a vehicle, comprising at least one carcass reinforcement (5) surmounted radially from the outside by an inextensible crown reinforcement (4), itself radially on the inside of a tread (2), the said reinforcements (4, 5) each consisting of at least one layer of reinforcing elements, the said tread (2) being connected to two beads (6) by two sidewalls (8), the said beads (6) being intended to come into contact with a rim, each bead (6) comprising at least one circumferential reinforcing element (3) called a bead wire, the said bead wire (3) defining a mean line forming a substantially circular closed curve in a circumferential plane.The bead wire (3) of each bead (6) is flexible and comprises at least one concave part Pc of smaller radius Rc and of centre of curvature Cc.The invention also relates to a method of collapsing the tyre and to a use of the tyre.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tyre includes an internal sealing layer, which partially delimits an internal volume (V) of the pneumatic tyre, and a self-sealing layer formed of at least a self-sealing product. The self-sealing layer is positioned radially on an inside region with respect to the internal sealing layer, and has a creep resistance indicator that increases axially from a median plane outwards, i.e., towards outside of the pneumatic tyre.
Abstract:
Tubeless tyre in the form of a torus open radially inwards with an outer wall and an inner wall, characterized in that at least part of the inner wall is covered with a self-sealing layer comprising a thermoplastic styrene (TPS) elastomer having a Shore 0 hardness of less than 35.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tyre includes an internal sealing layer, which partially delimits an internal volume of the pneumatic tyre, and a self-sealing layer formed of a self-sealing product. The self-sealing layer is positioned radially on an inside region with respect to the internal sealing layer, and has a creep resistance indicator that decreases radially outwards, i.e., towards outside of the pneumatic tyre.
Abstract:
Tire comprising at least two sidewalls, a crown provided radially externally with a tread, a carcass-type reinforcing structure and a crown reinforcement, the inner surface of the sidewalls and of the crown forming an inner wall of the tire, at least one portion of said wall being covered with a self-sealing layer comprising a thermoplastic stirene (TPS) elastomer and the tire being able to be inflated to a given service inflation pressure Pi. For any temperature within a given temperature range, between +30° C. and +100° C., the self-sealing layer has a loss factor tan δ of less than 0.2 and a dynamic modulus G* of less than Pi, tan δ and G* being measured at a frequency of 10 Hz.
Abstract:
A process for the manufacture of a tire the beads of which are without anchoring bead wires and are reinforced by complexes of layers of reinforcement elements of low angle, around which complexes the radial carcass reinforcement is anchored by winding, said process being characterized in that each complex is produced independently of the carcass reinforcement blank, the manufacture of said complex including using at least one raw blank of reinforcement elements which are oriented at a higher angle than the angle to be obtained in the vulcanized state, subjecting said ply to pre-extension before formation of a two-layer sleeve, the pitch, angle and width characteristics of which are obtained by pantograph effect upon a second extension.
Abstract:
A tire with a built-in self-sealing layer includes an external rubber tread, a carcass reinforcer, a gastight layer arranged towards an inside location relative to the carcass reinforcer, an anti-tack layer arranged furthest towards the inside, location and a self-sealing layer adjacent to the anti-tack layer and arranged towards the inside location relative to the gastight layer. The anti-tack layer includes particles with a shape factor (F=L/E) higher than 5. L represents a first dimension, and E represents a second dimension normal to the first dimension, with L being a longer dimension than E.

Abstract:
Pneumatic tyre with built-in self-sealing layer comprising an outer rubbery tread, a carcass reinforcement, a gastight layer positioned on the inside relative to the carcass reinforcement, a protective layer positioned innermost and a self-sealing layer adjacent to the protective layer and positioned on the inside relative to the gastight layer, characterized in that said protective layer is a chlorinated thermoplastic polymer film.
Abstract:
Inner tube for a pneumatic tyre, notably for a bicycle, characterized in that it has an elastomeric gastight layer consisting of an elastomeric composition comprising at least one styrene/isobutylene/styrene thermoplastic elastomer (called “SIBS”) and in that it includes a self-sealing material disposed inside the cavity formed by the airtight elastomeric layer.
Abstract:
Each bead of a pneumatic tire has the following characteristics:a) it has no bead wire and has an annular element whose tensile strength isppreciably less than that necessary for a bead wire;b) at least two reinforcing plies are placed in contact with or near this annular element;c) the combination of reinforcing plies has a tensile strength at least equal to that which would be necessary for a bead wire;d) the carcass ply is wrapped around the annular element;e) the outer region of the bead includes a rubber having an elastic loss modulus G" of less than 1 MPa and/or it includes a rubber whose thickness is at most equal to 2 mm.
