TIRE
A belt of a tire is configured with two resin-covered cords that are wound in a spiral pattern onto a carcass ply. Each of the resin-covered cords is configured by covering a reinforcing cord with a covering resin, and has a cross-section profile in a tire axial direction that is trapezoidal shape. The belt is configured by winding one of the resin-covered cords with its upper base side at a tire radial direction outer side, and winding the other of the resin-covered cords with its upper base side at the tire radial direction inner side between portions of the one of the resin-covered cords. Thus, join portions that are inclined toward different sides in the tire axial direction are alternately formed at a tire radial direction inner side along the tire axial direction in the belt.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
A pneumatic tire has a tread reinforcing layer comprising a net structure formed from a tape of rubber coated reinforcing cord(s). The net structure comprises first oblique segments and second oblique segments of the tape which intersect with each other, forming interspaces therebetween. The first oblique segment has a first axial outer part in which the angle of the tape with respect to the tire circumferential direction decreases toward one end in the tire axial direction of the net structure. The second oblique segment has a second axial outer part in which the angle of the tape with respect to the tire circumferential direction decreases toward the above-said one end of the net structure. The first axial outside part is connected to the second axial outside part directly or through a circumferential segment of the tape.
HOOPING REINFORCEMENT FOR A TIRE OF A HEAVY DUTY CIVIL ENGINEERING VEHICLE
A hooping reinforcement of a tire for a heavy duty civil engineering type vehicle is disclosed. The crown reinforcement (3) of the tire (1), radially on the inside of a tread (2), comprises a protective reinforcement (6), a working reinforcement (5) and a hooping reinforcement (7).

Each hooping layer (71, 72) is made up of an axial juxtaposition of contiguous turns of the strip (8), which are circumferentially wound around the working layer (51). Each strip (8) is at least 35 mm and at most 250 mm thick, and its distributed breaking tension is at least equal to 100 daN/mm.
NON-PNEUMATIC WHEEL COMPRISING A CIRCUMFERENTIAL REINFORCEMENT STRUCTURE
Non-pneumatic wheel (1) with an annular reinforcing structure (10) produced from at least one elastomer compound, arranged radially on the inside of a tread (7), the structure (10) having a plurality of reinforcing strips (12, 14) arranged in layers, the strips (12, 14) of each of the layers being arranged in juxtaposition in a substantially circumferential direction, the strips being coated with an elastomer composition (13), the structure (10) made of at least three layers of strips (12, 14), wherein the strips are formed of a laminate of at least two composite layers, each composite layer has fibres coated in a polymer matrix, the fibres making an angle with the circumferential direction, the difference in values of the said angles from one layer to the next being approximately 90.
Pneumatic tire
In a tire 2, a band 14 has a helically wound structure in which a strip 26 having a cord 28 is wound in a circumferential direction. The band 14 includes a center portion C disposed at a center in an axial direction, and a shoulder portion S disposed outward of the center portion C in the axial direction. A pitch Pc of the strip 26 in the center portion C is not less than 2.0 times a width W of the strip 26 and not greater than 2.5 times the width W. A pitch Ps of the strip 26 in the shoulder portion S is not less than 0.8 times the width W of the strip 26 and not greater than 1.2 times the width W.
Pneumatic tire and method for manufacturing pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire excellent in high speed stability and turning ability is provided. In a band of a tire, a center portion located in an axial center has a helically wound structure in which a first band body including a first cord is wound. A shoulder portion located on an axial outside of the center portion has a meshed structure formed by a second band body including a second cord. The shoulder portion includes a plurality of first portions, a plurality of second portions and a plurality of third portions. Each first portion is inclined and extends from an axially inner end of the shoulder portion to an axially outer end of the shoulder portion. Each second portion is inclined in an opposite direction from the first portion and extends from the axially inner end of the shoulder portion to the axially outer end of the shoulder portion.
MANUFACTURING METHOD OF PNEUMATIC TIRE
A manufacturing method of a pneumatic tire of the present disclosure is a manufacturing method of a pneumatic tire to manufacture the pneumatic tire comprising a resin-coated belt comprising a wire coated with a coating resin, the pneumatic tire comprises a base ring that comes in contact with a tire widthwise outer end of the resin-coated belt on an inner side of the resin-coated belt in a tire radial direction, and the manufacturing method comprises a base ring forming step of winding a ribbon member about a tire axis, to form the base ring.
Crown reinforcement for an aircraft tire
Crown reinforcement of an aircraft tire comprises a working reinforcement (2) radially inside of tread (3) and radially outside of carcass reinforcement (4). Working reinforcement (2) comprises two working bi-plies (21, 22) radially superposed with respective axial widths (L.sub.1, L.sub.2), from first axial end (I.sub.1, I.sub.2) to second axial end (I.sub.1, I.sub.2). Each working bi-ply (21, 22) comprises two working layers (211, 212; 221, 222) radially superposed and respectively made up of axially juxtaposed portions of strip (5) of axial width W extending circumferentially in periodic curve (6) that forms, in the equatorial plane (XZ) of the tire and with the circumferential direction (XX) of the tire, a non-zero angle A and has a radius of curvature R at its extrema (7). The difference DL between the respective axial widths (L.sub.1, L.sub.2) of the radially superposed working bi-plies (21, 22) is at least equal to 2(W+(RW/2)(1cos A)).
TIRE
A tire includes a tire case (tire frame member) formed in a ring shape, and a belt layer that is provided at an outer periphery of the tire case (tire frame member), and in which a resin-covered cord, which is configured by covering a reinforcing cord with a covering resin is wound onto the outer periphery of the tire case (tire frame member) in a spiral pattern around a tire circumferential direction, and is bonded to the tire case (tire frame member).
