Abstract:
Adapter for a rolling assembly having an axis of rotation comprising a tire having two beads, a rim with rim well (13) between two rim seats (12) each with an axially outer end, and width W between axially outer ends of these rim seats. The adapter, coupled between each bead and each rim seat, has two axially outer ends (2) each comprising seat (3) and bearing face (4) in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation. Body (5) connects outer axial ends (2) and comprises a main reinforcement, face (16) in contact with each seat (12) and with well (13) and positioned radially on the inside. The adapter has a total axial width L between each seat (3), and 60%≧W/L≧20%. Body (5) comprises immobilizing element (8) to wedge the adapter in the rim well (13).
Abstract:
Adapter providing the connection between one tire bead and the rim. An axially inner end of the adapter is mounted on the rim seat, an axially outer end is mounted on the rim seat, a body connects said outer end to said inner end, a substantially cylindrical adapter seat receives one of said beads, and an adapter bearing face is substantially contained in a plane perpendicular to the axis. The reinforcer element of the axially outer end is entirely situated axially outside the bearing face. The body comprises, opposite the adapter seat, an annular seat protuberance, said protuberance comprising at least one rubber composition.
Abstract:
Adapter for rolling assembly comprising tire and rim to provide the connection therebetween. The adapter has axially inner end with inner reinforcing element, axially outer end with outer reinforcing element, and a body. The outer reinforcing element, axially outside of bearing face (21), is a bead wire made of three layers (23, 24, 25) of metal threads and concentric. First layer (23) includes metal thread of diameter D1, 0.8≤D1≤5 mm, second layer (24) has metal thread of diameter D2, D2≤1.4×D1, and wound in a helix at angle A2, 2°≤A2≤10°, and third layer (25) has metal thread of diameter D3 and wound in a helix around second layer (24) at angle A3, 2°≤A3≤10°, and of opposite sign to A2.
Abstract:
An adapter for a rolling assembly having a rotation axis and comprising a tire having two beads, a rim, said adapter having an axially inner end to be mounted on the rim seat and comprises an inner reinforcer element, an axially outer end to be mounted on the rim seat and comprises an outer reinforcer element, a body that connects said outer end to said inner end so as to form a single piece and comprises a main reinforcement connecting said outer reinforcer and said inner reinforcer, a substantially cylindrical adapter seat receiving one of said beads, an adapter bearing face substantially contained in a plane perpendicular to the rotation axis. The reinforcer of the axially outer end is entirely outside the bearing face, and the body comprises, opposite the adapter seat, an annular seat reinforcer having a compression modulus greater than or equal to 1 GPa.
Abstract:
A running set comprising: a tire (10) comprising two beads (20); a mounting rim (500) of which the width is greater than or equal to 55% and less than or equal to 80% of the maximum axial width of the tire inflated to its service pressure; and at least one adapter (100) which provides the connection between the mounting rim and a bead of the tire.
Abstract:
Adapter for a rolling assembly intended to be fitted to a passenger vehicle, with improved mountability and a high capacity for absorbing large deformations in the event of pinch shocks. The adapter has reinforcing element (15) of the axially outer end (9) wholly situated axially on the outside of bearing face (21) and radially on the outside of adapter seat (18), and a main reinforcement (17) having a radial superposition of at least two layers of reinforcers, the reinforcers being mutually parallel within one and the same layer and crossed with one another from one layer to the next. Each of the layers of main reinforcement (17) comprises reinforcers which make, with a circumferential direction (XX′) of the tire, an angle at least equal to 30°, and coated with a polymer material having an elastic modulus at 10% elongation at most equal to 70 MPa.
Abstract:
An adapter for a rolling assembly comprising a tire having two beads (B), a rim (J) with two rim seats (7), said adapter connecting one of the beads and the rim. The adapter has an axially inner end (10) comprising inner reinforcer element (16), and an axially outer end (15) comprising outer reinforcer element (15), respectively mounted on a rim seat (7). Body (11) connects said outer end (9) to said inner end (10). Main reinforcement connects said outer reinforcer (15), and said inner reinforcer (16), a substantially cylindrical adapter seat (18) receiving one of said beads (B), an adapter bearing face (21) substantially contained in a plane perpendicular to the rion otataxis. The reinforcer element (15) of the axially outer end (9) is entirely situated axially outside the bearing face (21), and in that the body (11) comprises, opposite the adapter seat (7), an annular seat reinforcer (19).
