    摘要: A tire comprises a crown reinforcement comprising: a working reinforcement comprising a single working layer and a hoop reinforcement arranged radially outside the working reinforcement and comprising at least one hooping filamentary reinforcing element (170) wound circumferentially helically so as to extend axially from one axial edge to the other axial edge of the hoop reinforcement. The or each hooping filamentary reinforcing element (170) consists of: two multifilament strands (1701, 1702) of aromatic polyamide or aromatic copolyamide and one multifilament strand (1703) of aliphatic polyamide or of polyester, or three polyester multifilament strands, each multifilament strand (1701, 1702, 1703) being wound in a helix around a main axis (W) common to the three multifilament strands (1701, 1702, 1703). The hoop reinforcement has a tangent modulus at 1.3% elongation ranging from 200 to 650 daN/mm.

    摘要: Provided is a tire in which low rolling resistance is improved by using reinforcing cords containing polyamide multifilaments as reinforcing cords of a reinforcing member of the tire. In a tire (10) that includes at least one belt reinforcing layer (3) covering the full width of a belt (2), the belt reinforcing layer (3) includes, as a constituent, a rubber-cord composite that is formed of a rubber and reinforcing cords containing multifilaments of a semi-aromatic polyamide composed of a polycondensate of an aromatic dicarboxylic acid-containing dicarboxylic acid and a non-aromatic diamine, or a polycondensate of a non-aromatic dicarboxylic acid and an aromatic diamine-containing diamine acid; and, when the width of a maximum-width belt layer constituting the belt (2) is defined as W, a region of at least more than 0.35 W from a tire equatorial plane is a sparse region in terms of the end count of the reinforcing cords in the belt reinforcing layer (3), while regions on the tire width-direction outer side of the sparse region are dense regions.

    摘要: A tire for a two-wheeled motorized vehicle includes a tread joined by two sidewalls to two beads, the tread having first and second elastomer compositions, crown reinforcement, radially inside tread having a crown layer having mutually parallel circumferential reinforcers forming an angle at most equal to 5° to the circumferential direction, a carcass reinforcement, radially inside crown reinforcement, having turnup. Carcass reinforcement includes mutually parallel reinforcers, and wrapped, in each bead, from the inside to the outside of the tire, about bead wire in order to form turnup having free end E2. Carcass reinforcement includes crown portion and lateral portion, crown portion extending axially between first and second ends E2, E′2, E2 and E′2 being symmetric to equatorial plane P of the tire, lateral portion extending symmetrically to equatorial plane P radially towards the inside, from radially outermost end E2 to fourth end E4 disposed at the bead wire.

    摘要: A pneumatic tire comprises a mesh reinforcing layer formed from a tape wound circumferentially of the tire plural turns while repeating a zigzag unit comprising two inclined portion so that a number N of the repeated zigzag units are arranged while shifting in the tire circumferential direction and partly overlapping with each other. The amount of positional shift between the circumferentially adjacent zigzag units is in a range from 0.7 to 1.3 times a value of 360/N in terms of the angle α around the tire rotational axis.

    摘要: A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass layer, a belt layer disposed on an outer side of the carcass layer in a tire radial direction, and a tread rubber disposed on the outer side of the belt layer in the tire radial direction. The belt layer formed by laminating an angle belt having a belt angle ≥45° and ≤70° in absolute values, a pair of cross belts, having belt angles of ≥10° and ≤45° in absolute values and having belt angles of mutually opposite signs, and a circumferential reinforcing layer having a belt angle within a range of ±5° with respect to a tire circumferential direction. A tread width TW and a cross-sectional width Wca of the carcass layer have a relationship such that 0.82≤TW/Wca≤0.92. A width Ws of the circumferential reinforcing layer and a cross-sectional width Wca of the carcass layer such that 0.60≤Ws/Wca≤0.70.

    摘要: A pneumatic tire includes a tread portion, a pair of sidewall portions, a pair of bead portions, a carcass extending between the bead portions through the tread portion and the sidewall portions, a belt layer disposed radially outwardly of the carcass, a band layer disposed radially outwardly of the belt layer, and a pair of belt-edge rubbers disposed between the belt layer and the band layer to cover axially outer edges of the belt layer. The band layer includes a full band and a pair of edge bands covering the axially outer edges of the belt layer. The pair of edge bands includes one or more organic fiber cords each having restraining force in a range from 5 to 35 N at radially outward locations of the outer edges of the belt layer.
