Provided are tractor wheels for a downhole tractor. An example tractor wheel comprises a series of continuous springs disposed on the circumference of the tractor wheel, wherein the individual continuous springs in the series of continuous springs are separated by a gap, and a void disposed on the interior of the tractor wheel and that is continuous about the circumference of the tractor wheel.

The present invention provides a simulated inflatable wheel including a rim, a filler tire mounted on the rim, and a tire casing covering the filler tire and having a rolling portion in rolling contact with the external environment and an abutting portion extending from two sides of the rolling portion. The abutting portion is located between the rim and the filler tire. The abutting portion abuts against the rim and the filler tire respectively. A recessed portion is formed on at least one position of an outer surface of the filler tire. The present invention utilizes the recessed portion of the filler tire to generate space between the filler tire and the rim (or the tire casing), for providing a buffer when the filler tire is deformed and improving elasticity of the filler tire. The present invention further provides a stroller including the simulated inflatable wheel.

A wheel includes: a hub; and a running wheel body, which includes a tread on an outer periphery thereof. The tread includes segments. The segments are essentially planar. First segments of the segments are inclined toward one end face of the running wheel body and second segments of the segments are inclined toward an other end face of the running wheel body.

The invention solves the problem of creating a rubber composition that can be used in a solid tyre of an extremely simple and manufacturable design to provide safe and hygienic operation of the tyre without accumulating a static electric charge and without leaving black marks on a floor surface. An electrically conductive rubber composition for non-marking solid tyres is proposed, which composition comprises (1) a rubber or a mixture of at least two rubbers, (2) oxide fillers and modifiers, (3) organic plasticisers and modifiers, (4) a curing system and (5) carbon nanotubes, wherein the total amount of carbon nanotubes and carbon of other allotropic modifications constitutes from 0.05 to 1.5 wt % relative to the amount of rubber. A non-marking solid tyre made from the electrically conductive rubber composition is also proposed.

There is provided a non-pneumatic tire (1), which includes an attachment body (11) that is attached to an axle, a ring-shaped body (13) that surrounds the attachment body (11) from an outside in a tire radial direction, a connection member (15) that displaceably connects the attachment body (11) and the ring-shaped body (13) to each other, and a cylindrical tread member (16) that is externally mounted on the ring-shaped body (13), in which the tread member (16) includes a base rubber portion (41) that is positioned at an inside in the tire radial direction, and a cap rubber portion (42) that is positioned at an outside of the base rubber portion (41) in the tire radial direction, and in which the rigidity of the base rubber portion (41) is lower than the rigidity of the cap rubber portion (42).

A support assembly for a vehicle includes at least two spherical tires travelling on a road surface and rotating relative to the road surface and the vehicle and a drive system magnetically driving rotation of the tires relative to the drive system itself such that no portion of the drive system physically contacts the tires or the road surface.

A support assembly for a vehicle includes at least two spherical tires travelling on a road surface and rotating relative to the road surface and the vehicle and a drive system magnetically driving rotation of the tires relative to the drive system itself such that no portion of the drive system physically contacts the tires or the road surface. The tires each have an outer tread layer comprising a material having a first stiffness when dry and a second stiffness when wet, the first stiffness being greater than the second stiffness.

In regions, divided by the tire equator, on both sides of the tread surface of a tire, the tire includes a grip area along the entire circumference of the tread, the grip area including a plurality of recessed lines, with a shape recessed toward an inner side of the tire from the outline of the tread surface, that extend from the tread edge side in a direction inclined relative to the tire equator and are arrayed in parallel, and a plurality of sipes that extend toward the tire equator in a direction inclined relative to the tire equator, starting in the grip area and terminating before the tire equator. The negative ratio in the grip area is higher than the negative ratio closer to the tire equator than the grip area.

A tyre for electric skateboards includes a hub and a tyre casing. The hub is sleeved with the tyre casing. The tyre casing is fixedly connected to the hub. An annular cavity is formed in the tyre casing in a circumferential direction of the tyre casing. A deformable shock absorption and noise reduction ring is fixedly disposed in the annular cavity.

Provided is a pneumatic tire comprising a tread, sidewalls, a belt, and dimpled patterns, wherein each dimpled pattern is adapted to modify air flow and temperature. The tread defines the outward surface of the tire and extends in a radial direction, a circumferential direction, and a lateral direction. Each sidewall extends radially inwardly along a curved path from the tread to a bead and defines a lateral surface having maximum lateral extent. The belt extends under the tread. Each dimpled pattern is a surface treatment etched from a sidewall maximum lateral extent over a belt edge and onto the tread. Each dimpled pattern surface treatment modifies air flow at 180 mph over the tire to turbulent flow, and reduces steady state operating temperatures of the sidewalls.
