TIRE
A tire includes a tire frame member made of a resin material; a top tread disposed outside the tire frame member in a tire radial direction; and a belt layer disposed between the tire frame member and the top tread, the belt layer constituting of a center area at a middle in a tire width direction and shoulder areas at both sides of the center area in the tire width direction, a width dimension BCW of the center area in a tire axial direction being in a range of from 85 to 105% of a ground width dimension TW of the top tread. In a case in which Hc represents stiffness of the center area, and Hs represents stiffness of the shoulder area, Hc>Hs.
BRAIDED TIRE MATERIAL
The various embodiments relate to pneumatic tires including a cap ply of braided strands of yarn. Various embodiments relate to strands of yarn that are fiberglass filaments or steel. The braided strands may include a tight braid or a loose braid. Various embodiments include braids having 1 to 5 stitches per cm.
ULTRA SUPER SINGLE TIRE FOR HEAVY DUTY
An ultra super single tire for heavy duty includes a tread that contacts the road surface; a carcass that constitutes the skeleton of the tire; and a belt layer that is disposed between the tread and the carcass, in which the belt layer is composed of a first belt to a fourth belt that are laminated sequentially from the carcass toward the tread, the first belt includes an extender belt, and the second belt is a wide spiral coil belt. Thus, an excessive increase in weight, the occurrence of excessive heat generation, and deterioration of durability can be prevented, while enhancing the ground contact length at the ground contacting center, and further enhancing the durability at belt layer edges.
Pneumatic tire
In a tire 2, a difference Fs (((DdDe)/W)100) in an amount of protrusion is greater than 0.4 and less than 0.5. A sum Fa (((Dd+De)/W)100) of amounts of protrusions for a sidewall 6 satisfies mathematical expressions (3) and (4) in which an aspect ratio A is used, and a difference Gs (((DaDh)/W)100) in an amount of protrusion for a tread 4 satisfies mathematical expressions (6) and (7).

Pneumatic radial tire
Pneumatic radial tire (1) having improved high speed durability and low flatspot feature, and which has polyethylene terephthalate cap ply reinforcement layer (6). The objective is to provide a pneumatic radial tire (1) wherein the pressure on the belt package (5) is increased at high speed and high temperature by increasing the thermal shrinkage force of the cap ply cord.
Pneumatic Tire
Provided is a pneumatic tire with an annular-shaped tread portion extending in a tire circumferential direction, a pair of sidewall portions disposed on both sides of the tread portion, and a pair of bead portions disposed inward of these sidewall portions in a tire radial direction. This pneumatic tire is also provided with a reinforcing member which includes a plurality of reinforcing cords oriented in at least three directions, and has a mesh-like structure with at least three of the reinforcing cords oriented in different directions joined together at at least a portion of intersecting locations of the reinforcing cords.
Pneumatic Tire
A pneumatic tire includes a tread portion; sidewall portions; bead portions; a carcass layer disposed extending between the pair of bead portions; a belt layer of a plurality of layers disposed on an outer circumferential side of the carcass layer in the tread portion; and a band-like noise absorbing member adhered to a region corresponding to a tire inner surface of the tread portion along the tire circumferential direction interposed by an adhesive layer. The pneumatic tire further includes a belt cover layer being disposed on an outer circumferential side of the belt layer across an entire width of the belt layer, the belt cover layer including organic fiber cords arranged in the tire circumferential direction; and a rate of change of a dynamic loaded radius when traveling at 270 km/h with respect to a dynamic loaded radius when traveling at 30 km/h being restricted to 2.0% or less.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
At a pneumatic tire (11), in a pneumatic tire in which a reinforcing layer (11) is structured from at least one reinforcing ply (53) in which are embedded plural reinforcing cords (54) that are formed from steel and are inclined with respect to a tire equator S, an inclination angle A of the reinforcing cords (54) with respect to the tire equator S is within a range of 40 to 90, and a compressive rigidity F per 50 mm width of a reinforcing layer (52) in a direction parallel to the reinforcing cords (54) is within a range of 1000 to 2400 N.
Tire Comprising Working Layers Formed by Individual Wires
Tire comprising a crown reinforcement formed of three working layers having between ends thereof two layers of rubber compound Ci. Thickness of the three working layers is <5 mm with individual metal wires as reinforcing elements of diameter <0.50 mm and a distance therebetween being strictly <1 mm. The axial width of each working layer is >60% that of the tread. Distance d.sub.i between two working layers separated by a layer of rubber compound Ci and measured at the end of the axially narrowest working layer in contact therewith is such that 0.5<d.sub.i<2.5 mm, and, in a meridian plane, the thickness of at least one layer of rubber compound Ci is substantially constant over the axial width between the axially inner end of a layer of rubber compound Ci and the end of the axially narrowest working layer in contact therewith.
Pneumatic tire
In an internal pressure state where an internal pressure that is 0.05 times a normal internal pressure P has been increased to the normal internal pressure P, amounts of protrusions at points Pa, Ph, Pd, and Pe are represented as Da (mm), Dh (mm), Dd (mm), and De (mm), respectively. A sum Fa (((Dd+De)/W)100) of the amounts of protrusions for each sidewall 6 satisfies mathematical expressions (2) and (3) in which an aspect ratio A is used, and a difference Gs (((DaDh)/W)100) in the amount of protrusion for a tread 4 satisfies mathematical expressions (5) and (6).
