A pneumatic tire mountable on a 15° tapered specified rim includes a bead core, a carcass, a steel cord reinforcing layer, a bead rubber layer, and a first reinforcing rubber layer. A distance from a second line segment to a third line segment is from 4 mm to 12 mm, a complex modulus of the first reinforcing rubber layer is from 6 MPa to 10 MPa, an elongation at break of the first reinforcing rubber layer is from 300% to 450%, a complex modulus of the second reinforcing rubber layer is from 10 MPa to 15 MPa, and a complex modulus of a shock absorbing rubber layer is from 2 MPa to 6 MPa.

In a pneumatic tire, a bead filler is on an outer circumference of a bead core, a carcass turned up end is inward of an outer diameter side end of the bead filler, the carcass end is spaced from a carcass body, a steel reinforcement is in each bead, a sidewall rubber extends from the sidewall to the bead, and a support layer is between the bead filler and the sidewall rubber to cover the carcass end and an end of the steel reinforcement, the support layer extending toward an outer diameter side and contacting the carcass body on an outer diameter side of the bead filler outer diameter side end, and a 100% modulus of the support layer is at least 1.5 times that of the bead filler, and the sidewall rubber, the bead filler and the sidewall rubber being adjacent to the support layer.

In a pneumatic tire, a bead filler is radially outward of a bead core, a carcass turned up end is radially inward of an outer side end of the bead filler, the turned up end is spaced from a carcass body, a reinforcement layer is laterally outward of the bead filler, a sidewall rubber extends from a sidewall to the bead, an inner rubber reinforcing layer is between the bead filler and the reinforcement layer and adjacent to the turned up end, a crack suppression layer is between the reinforcement layer and the sidewall rubber, the crack suppression layer extends 5 mm or more from where the crack suppression layer overlaps, the reinforcement layer contacts the carcass body radially outwardly of the bead filler, and a 100% modulus Kc.sub.M100 of the crack suppression layer is at least 1.5 times that of the sidewall rubber.

The invention is a tyre comprising, in the central part of its crown, at least one undulation (51) of the radially outermost crown layer, having a radial amplitude A at least equal to 1 mm. At least one bead comprises, aside from the radial carcass layer and the bead wire, a radial reinforcing element that is such that the axial distance between the radial reinforcing element and the axially innermost carcass layer is at least equal to 1 mm and at most equal to 12 mm at the point of the radial reinforcing element that is situated 30 mm from the radially innermost point of the bead wire, for a better trade-off between the stiffness of the undulating crown and of the bead.

A pneumatic tire has a turned-up carcass ply and a non-turnup carcass ply. The turned-up carcass ply is turned up around bead cores in respective bead portions from the inside to outside of the tire so as to form a pair of turned up portions extending radially outwardly on the axially outsides of the respective bead cores, and a main portion extending between the turned up portions. The non-turnup carcass ply extends between the bead portions and terminates to have edges positioned on the axially outsides of the respective turned up portions. The bead portions are each provided on its outer surface with vent lines protruding therefrom and extending continuously in the tire circumferential direction. The vent lines include a radially outer vent line formed radially outside the edges of the non-turnup carcass ply, and a radially inner vent line formed radially inside the edges of the non-turnup carcass ply.

The invention relates to a two-wheeled vehicle pneumatic tire (1), preferably bicycle tire, particularly preferably racing bike tire (1), having a tread (2), a tire carcass, tire side walls (3) and two bead regions (4), each with a tire bead with a core (5), wherein the tire carcass comprises two carcass inlays (6,6′) wherein the two carcass inlays (6, 6′) extend from a zenith region (17) of the two-wheeled vehicle pneumatic tire (1) over the tire side walls (3) as far as the two bead regions (4) and are looped there around the respective core (5) from axially on the inside axially outward and end with carcass inlay ends (7,7′) and wherein the two bead regions (4) each have a bead protective strip (8) arranged on the carcass from the outside as protection against chafing.

The problem addressed is that of improving the rolling resistance.

The problem is solved in that the carcass inlay ends (7′) of the inner carcass inlay (6′) are covered from the outside by the respective bead protective strip (8), wherein the inner carcass inlay (6′) is formed by that carcass inlay of the two carcass inlays (6, 6′) which is the radially inner carcass inlay in the zenith region (17). The invention furthermore relates to a two-wheeled vehicle having a tire of said type.

A tire including a bead core, a bead filler extending to an outer side in a tire-radial direction of the bead core, and a carcass play extending from the bead core to another bead core and folded back around the bead core, further including a steel chafer arranged so as to cover the carcass ply around the bead core, a first pad which covers outside in the tire-width direction of a folding end of the carcass ply at the outside in the tire-radial direction of an end part of the steel chafer, and a second pad which covers the outer side in the tire-width direction of the first pad, in which an electronic component is provided between the first pad and second pad.

A tire including a bead core; bead filler; upper ply; reinforcement ply which is provided to overlap a tire-radial direction inside portion of the upper ply; and down ply which overlaps a turnup part of the upper ply and reinforcement ply, and extends from an outer side in the tire-radial direction to an inner side in the tire-radial direction so as to encompass the bead core and bead filler together with the upper ply, in which an electronic component is embedded in a region of substantially triangular shape in a cross section surrounded by the turnup part of the upper ply, down ply and an end part of the reinforcement ply.

Provided is an aircraft tire which has both satisfactory light weight and satisfactory separation durability of carcass ply ends. An aircraft tire (10) includes a pair of bead cores (1), and a carcass (2) extending between the pair of the bead cores (1). In this aircraft tire (10), the carcass (2) includes at least one layer of a turn-up ply (2a) which is composed of a main body (2aa) and folded portions (2ab), and at least one layer of a down ply (2b) which covers a tire width-direction outer side of the respective folded portions (2ab) of the turn-up ply (2a) and extends to at least a tire radial-direction inner side of the respective bead cores (1); rubber-cord reinforcing members (6) are each arranged between the main body (2aa) of an outermost turn-up ply (2a) and the folded portion (2ab) of the turn-up ply (2a) extending to a tire radial-direction outermost side, and between the folded portion (2ab) of the turn-up ply (2a) extending to the tire radial-direction outermost side and an innermost down ply (2b); and cords of the rubber-cord reinforcing members (6) have an elongation at break of not less than 30%.
