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.

A method for manufacturing a tire having a sensor container and a tire manufactured by the manufacturing method, and more particularly, a method for manufacturing a tire having a sensor container for preventing the sensor container from falling off during high-speed driving, and a tire manufactured by the manufacturing method are proposed. 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.

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.

An assembly (100) for an inner tube (110) for a tire or of an inner tube (110) for a tire, includes a base film (101, 201), which is forming a part of the inner tube (110) or configured to be attached to the inner tube (110). The assembly (100) includes a ring (102), which is inserted into a hole through the base film (101, 201), the ring (102) having internal threads of a fasten mechanism. The assembly (100) has a plug (103), which is removably insertable in the ring (102), the plug (103) including external threads of the fasten mechanism, a first end having a first surface (103a) adapted to face outwards a cavity of the inner tube when inflated, and a second end having a second surface (103b) adapted to face inwards the cavity of the inner tube and adapted for attaching a module (104) having an electronic device.

A tire including a rubber sheet which covers an end of the carcass ply which has been folded back and an RFID tag serving as an electronic component provided between the bead filler and the rubber sheet, in which the bead filler is formed in an annular shape, the rubber sheet is formed in an annular shape by one end side and another end side of a long sheet being joined, and the RFID tag serving as the electronic component is disposed between the bead filler and the rubber sheet at a joint part which is a portion of the rubber sheet which is joined.

A pneumatic tire mounted with surface fastener members for attaching an object to a tire inner surface, comprises: at least eight surface fastener members having an intermittent arrangement on a tread inner circumferential surface, the surface fastener members having a uniform cross-sectional dimension, an overall band-like shape, and a length in a tire axial direction from 50% to 120% of a maximum belt width of the pneumatic tire; wherein an angle θ between a longitudinal direction of the surface fastener members and the tire axial direction is from 0 degrees to 45 degrees; and an installation period in a tire circumferential direction is from 80% to 150% of the length in the tire axial direction of the surface fastener members.

The present invention is relative to a method for building tyres for vehicle wheels and to a transfer device (16) of an apparatus for building tyres for vehicle wheels. The centring device (16) comprises: an annular support structure (18); gripping elements (19) arranged as a ring on the annular support structure (18) and having gripping surfaces (20) directed radially towards a longitudinal axis (Z-Z) of the transfer device (16); a measurement device (30) mounted on the annular support structure (18). The measurement device (30) is configured for detecting the centring between the transfer device (16) and a drum (12, 13) situated within the transfer device (16). The transfer device (16) is configured for picking up the tyre being processed (14, 15) from the drum (12, 13) on which the tyre being processed is arranged or for depositing a tyre being processed (14, 15) on the drum (12, 13).
