A non-pneumatic tire has a crown region and a pair of sidewall regions, including a first sidewall region and a second sidewall region. The non-pneumatic tire includes a pair of beads, including a first bead and a second bead, and a toroidal element. The toroidal element includes an inner region, an outer region, and a central region. At least a portion of the central region is more elastic than the inner and outer regions. The toroidal element includes a crown portion extending across the crown region of the non-pneumatic tire, a first sidewall portion extending along at least a portion of the first sidewall region of the non-pneumatic tire, and a second sidewall portion extending along at least a portion of the second sidewall region of the non-pneumatic tire. The toroidal element is pre-stressed such that when the non-pneumatic tire is mounted to a rim, the first sidewall portion of the toroidal element exerts a first axially outward force of at least 1000 pounds against the rim, and such that the second sidewall portion of the toroidal element exerts a second axially outward force of at least 1000 pounds against the rim.

The invention relates to a tire having at least one carcass reinforcement (2) comprising reinforcers, surmounted radially on the outside by a crown reinforcement (3) comprising two axial ends S, itself radially on the inside of a tread (4), said crown reinforcement (3) being made up of at least one layer of reinforcement elements, said tread (4) being connected to two beads (5) by way of two sidewalls (6), said beads (5) being intended to come into contact with a rim flange having a rim flange top C, each bead having at least one circumferential reinforcement element (7) known as a bead wire, said carcass reinforcement (2) comprising an end (8) at each bead (5), the end (8) of the carcass reinforcement (2) being turned up once in an outward radial direction of the tire and about said bead wire, so as to form a turnup, then being folded in the radially outward direction so as to form a fold of the carcass ply (2), said fold forming a radially external end (12a) and three adjacent parts along an axial axis made up of a central part (10), of an axially internal lateral part (11), and of an axially external lateral part (0), the fold being executed in an outward axial direction with respect to the center of the tire, characterized in that a decoupling elastomer composition (14) having a secant modulus at 10% extension of greater than or equal to 10 MPa and preferably greater than or equal to 30 MPa and less than or equal to 60 MPa is present between the axially internal lateral part and the central part of said turnup, and at the radially external end (12a) of said turnup (12), said elastomer composition being present along a radial length comprised between the radially external end of the turnup and a radially internal point F with respect to the end of said turnup, said point being situated on the sidewall and at a distance from said radially external end by a length greater than 10 mm, and in that the radially external end (12a) of the turnup (12) is disposed between the rim flange top C and a point D, said points C and D being situated at the surface of the sidewall (6) and disposed on either side of a point E situated on the sidewall corresponding to the nominal section width, said point D being disposed at a maximum radial length equal to 85% of the length present between the axial end S of the crown reinforcement (3) and the rim flange top C.

A tire includes at least one body defining a plurality of body ply layers, and a toroidal element located between the body ply layers. The toroidal element includes inner and outer regions formed by the body ply layers, and a central region formed by an inner rubber component located between the body ply layers. At least a portion of the central region is more elastic than the inner and outer regions. The toroidal element includes a first sidewall portion extending along at least a portion of the first sidewall region of the tire, and a second sidewall portion extending along at least a portion of the second sidewall region of the tire. The toroidal element is pre-stressed such that the first sidewall portion of the toroidal element exerts a first axially outward force, and such that the second sidewall portion of the toroidal element exerts a second axially outward force.

The invention relates to a tire having at least one carcass reinforcement comprising reinforcers, surmounted radially on the outside by a crown reinforcement, itself radially on the inside of a tread, said crown reinforcement being made up of at least one layer of reinforcement elements, said tread being connected to two beads by way of two sidewalls, said beads being intended to come into contact with a rim flange having a rim flange top C, each bead having at least one circumferential reinforcement element, said carcass reinforcement comprising an end at each bead, the end of the carcass reinforcement being turned up once in an outward radial direction of the tire and about said bead wire, so as to form a turnup, then being folded in said radially inward direction so as to form a fold forming a radially external end and three adjacent parts along an axial axis made up of a central part, of an axially internal lateral part, and of an axially external lateral part. The tire is characterized in that the radially external end of the turnup is disposed between the rim flange top C and a point D, said points C and D being situated at the surface of the sidewall and disposed on either side of a point E situated on the sidewall corresponding to the nominal section width, said point D being disposed at a maximum radial length equal to 85% of the length present between the axial end S of the crown reinforcement and the rim flange top C.

A pneumatic tire 2 includes a buttress reinforcing layer 22. A carcass 12 includes a first ply 38 and a second ply 40. The first ply 38 and the second ply 40 each have a main portion that is extended on and between beads 10 on both sides. The buttress reinforcing layer 22 extends along the first ply 38 and the second ply 40 between the first ply 38 and the second ply 40. An outer end 22a of the buttress reinforcing layer 22 is disposed inward of a shoulder region S of a tread 4 in a radial direction. An inner end 22b of the buttress reinforcing layer 22 is disposed at a maximum width position of the tire or disposed outward of the maximum width position of the tire in the radial direction.
