Abstract:
A safety tire having an inner tire defining a first tire chamber therein and a tubeless outer tire defining a second tire chamber between the inner and outer tires, which second chamber is isolated from the first chamber. A breaker consisting of rubberized cord plies is disposed on crown portion of the inner tire, so as to produce a sufficient cornering power for running at 100 Km/hour or faster even after breakdown of said outer tire.
Abstract:
A system for transmitting information of reduced pneumatic pressure of tires comprising an electromagnetic wave radiation mechanism of an electric field excitation system and at least one receiver antenna of an electromagnetic field sensing type for sensing a polarized wave of an electromagnetic field radiated from the radiation mechanism. The radiation mechanism includes an electromagnetic wave radiation member consisting of a substantially concentric metal body opposedly and substantially provided on each axle of a plurality of tire wheels for actuating as an electric dipole together with the wheels and an oscillator electrically coupled to the radiation member and energized by a switch actuated in response to reduced pneumatic pressure of tire. The receiver antenna is provided in the space between the ground surface and the lower surface of the bottom plate of the car body in order to screen external noise waves.
Abstract:
A pneumatic safety tire for motorcycles, which includes a pair of elastic reinforcing layers disposed along the carcass plies of the tire, so as to extend from the proximity of tire beads to tire inner surface under the tread rubber. The Shore A hardness of the reinforcing layer is 45 or more, so that the safety tire can run at a high-speed even after puncture, while providing excellent handling characteristics under normal conditions.
