Tire comprising a protective reinforcement

The invention relates to a tire with a radial carcass reinforcement comprising a crown reinforcement, itself radially capped with a tread comprising at least two circumferentially continuous cutouts, the said tread being connected to two beads via two sidewalls. According to the invention, the crown reinforcement comprises at least one axially discontinuous layer consisting of at least two bands each formed of at least one multilayer laminate, the said laminate comprising at least one multiaxially stretched thermoplastic polymer film positioned between and in contact with two layers of rubber composition, and, in a meridian plane, the axial ends of each of the said bands being respectively axially on the outside of each of the axially outermost points of one same circumferentially continuous cutout.

TIRE COMPRISING A CORRUGATED CROWN LAYER AND A SIDEWALL STIFFENING INSERT

A tire (10) not suitable for running flat comprises a crown block (12), two beads (32), and two sidewalls (30) connecting each bead (32) to the crown block (12). The crown block (12) comprises a crown reinforcement (16) comprising a corrugated crown layer (24, 26, 28) comprising corrugations. The sidewall (30) comprises a sidewall insert (90) comprising an elastomeric composition (92) referred to as a rigid elastomeric composition having a modulus at 10% extension greater than or equal to 6 MPa and a maximum thickness (Emax) less than or equal to 5.0 mm.
