There is provided a method for producing a recycled material, whereby a recycled material can be efficiently obtained from a tire. The method for producing a recycled material according to the present invention includes a step of subjecting a tire to a gasification treatment to generate a gas containing a C1 gas from the tire, and a step of obtaining a recycled material containing at least one species selected from the group consisting of isoprene, butadiene, a butanediol compound, a butanol compound, a butenal compound, succinic acid, and polymers of these compounds by using the gas containing the C1 gas.

An apparatus for building and for checking a continuous elongated element during the building of a tyre for vehicle wheels. A beam of an electromagnetic radiation is projected on a section of the continuous elongated element dispensed by a dispensing head and interposed between the dispensing head and a first contact area of the continuous elongated element with a radially outer surface of a tyre being processed. An image of a radiation reflected by the section is acquired. A first parameter related to the image is detected, and the first parameter is compared with a second reference parameter.

The aim of the disclosed solution is to present a method of inserting an insert to a tread a tire such that the insert, particularly a fragile insert such as an insert comprising electronic components, may be protected against gripping and impact forces during its insertion. The disclosed solution is premised on an insert being housed, at least partially, in a sleeve upon and during its installation to a tread of a tire. Thus, the sleeve may be employed to provide protection for the insert against gripping and/or impact forces during the insertion of the insert into the tread a tire.

Provided is a container structure for attaching sensors to tires and, more particularly, to a container structure for attaching sensors to tires, the container structure being able to prevent sensors attached to tires from being damaged by intense heat. The container structure can include: a bottom container that is attached to the inner liner of a tire; a top container that extends from the top of the bottom container and has an insertion space in which a sensor can be inserted; and a channel part that is formed on the inner side of the top container, in which the channel part is provided such that air can cool the sensor by flowing inside and outside with the sensor inserted in the top container.

The method for manufacturing a tire having a sensor container, includes the steps of a) curing a container unit; b) forming a dummy by filling an inside of the cured container unit with a dummy material in which urethane and a curing agent are mixed; c) attaching the container unit including the dummy formed by curing to a tire; d) curing the tire to which the container unit is attached; e) removing the dummy included in the container unit attached to the cured tire; and f) mounting a sensor at a position where the dummy is removed.

Disclosed is a transport device, an applicator and a method for transporting a tire component in a transport direction. The transport device includes at least three conveyors extending mutually parallel in the transport direction and side-by-side in a lateral direction perpendicular to the transport direction to form a combined conveying surface for conveying the tire component in the transport direction, wherein the at least three conveyors include an intermediate conveyor, a first side conveyor on a first side of the intermediate conveyor in the lateral direction and a second side conveyor on a second side of the intermediate conveyor in the lateral direction, opposite to the first side, wherein the intermediate conveyor, the first side conveyor and the second side conveyor are movable at different speeds with respect to each other in a direction parallel to the transport direction.

The invention relates to a method and a system for the processing of an end-of-use pneumatic tyre that is provided with an inner lining (SAL) layer manufactured with a sealing agent intended to seal any punctures and at least partially applied to the surface of an inner cavity (2) of the end-of-use pneumatic tyre; the system (1) comprises an applicator device (6), which is provided with at least one nozzle (13) which dispenses a cryogenic fluid, preferably liquid nitrogen, upon the (SAL) layer of sealing agent in such a way that the (SAL) layer of sealing agent reaches the solid state; a device (14) for the removal of the (SAL) layer of solid sealing agent that is provided with a tool (16) for removing the (SAL) layer of solid sealing agent by means of mechanical abrasion; and a circuit (17) for suctioning the solid sealing agent removed by the tool (16).

Abstract: A label (1; 50) for a tyre (100) of vehicle wheels comprises: at least a first layer (4) which is made of an elastomer material which is compatible with the elastomer material of a sidewall (102) of the tyre, an external surface (2) which is intended to remain visible when the label is coupled to the sidewall, a plurality of recesses (10) which are formed at the external surface (2) and which are capable of generally defining at least one portion of information which is set out on the label (1; 50). The elastomer material of which the first layer (4) is made comprises a quantity of a halogenated isobutylene polymer greater than 5 phr.

The disclosed technology generally relates to an installation structure for installing a sensor module, and more particularly relates to an installation structure for installing a sensor module on a tire, and to a method of manufacturing the installation structure. In one aspect, the installation structure includes a sensor module housing configured to accommodate a sensor module and at least one sensor patch each comprising a bonding portion configured to attach to an inner side of a tire and a pressing portion configured to place and maintain the sensor module housing in contact with an installation position on the inner side of the tire. The pressing portion is configured to apply a downward pressure on a top portion of the sensor module housing by elastically extending and contracting.

Disclosed is a guiding device having a guide roller that is rotatable about a roller axis and that has an exterior guide surface extending in a circumferential direction about the roller axis, wherein the guide roller includes a plurality of roller segments juxtaposed in an axial direction along the roller axis for forming the exterior guide surface, wherein the plurality of roller segments are movable relative to each other to enable the guide roller to be positioned in a maximum bend state in which the roller axis extends along an arc, wherein the plurality of roller segments are interlocked to rotate together about the roller axis in a maximum bend state, wherein the plurality of roller segments extend over an arc length along the arc of the roller axis, wherein the arc length is at least ninety degrees in the maximum bend state.
