Abstract: A system for detection of non-pneumatic tire loading includes a non-pneumatic tire. The non-pneumatic tire includes a ground-contacting annular tread, a central rim, and at least one spoke disk disposed between the rim and the tread. The spoke disk includes an inner ring mounted on the central rim, an outer ring, and spokes extending radially between the inner ring and the outer ring. A shear band is disposed between the outer ring of the spoke disk and the tread. A flange is disposed on an outboard surface of the spokes of the spoke disk. Indicating means are formed on the outboard surface of the plurality of spokes of the spoke disk radially outwardly of the flange. The flange interfaces with the indicating means when the tire is in an overloaded state or is in need of replacement.

Abstract: The present disclosure regards Y-shaped spokes for non-pneumatic tires. Various embodiments described herein include a non-pneumatic tire that comprises a spoke extending along a radial direction between a shear band and a hub. The spoke comprising a first leg and a second leg extending from the shear band to an intersection point. The spoke further comprises a third leg extending from the hub to the intersection point. The first leg and the third leg are oriented along the same direction, which is oriented at an angle to an orientation of the second leg. Further, the first leg, the second leg, and the third leg meet at the intersection point to form a Y-shaped architecture.
