Each of at least two layers of a carcass reinforcement has a breaking force per unit width higher than 2250 daN/dm. The minimum strength per unit width, measured for an elongation of less than 10%, of a second layer of carcass reinforcement is strictly greater than a value equal to 20% of the minimum strength per unit width, measured for an elongation of less than 10%, of a first layer of carcass reinforcement. The reinforcing elements of the two layers of carcass reinforcement have a thread count of less than 750 tex. The elongation of the reinforcing elements of the second layer of carcass reinforcement is greater than 4% under a force of 20 daN, and the secant elastic modulus values under tension at 10% elongation, Mt, Mj, satisfy the relationship Mt/Mj1.

A tire includes a bead portion with a bead core having a main bead filler and an auxiliary bead filler, and a carcass ply wrapped around a portion of the main bead filler. An end of the carcass ply is located axially outside the main bead filler and radially below an apex of the main bead filler. The auxiliary bead filler is located axially outside the carcass ply end, with an apex of the auxiliary bead filler being located above an apex of the main bead filler.

A pneumatic tire includes one carcass including a folded up portion and a reinforcing layer between the folded up portion and a bead filler. The folded up portion has an end portion in a region inward of a belt layer in a radial direction and inward of the belt layer in a lateral direction. The bead filler has an outer end portion distanced from a bead heel portion from 20% or more to 40% or less of a tire cross-sectional height. The reinforcing layer has an outer end portion outward of the outer end portion of the bead filler in the radial direction and inward in the radial direction with respect to a position of a tire maximum width position in the radial direction. A sidewall portion is formed of a side rubber having tan at 60 C. of from 0.04 or more to 0.10 or less.

In a tire 2, a length from a center in an axial direction of a boundary between a core 30 and an apex 32 of each bead 10 to an outer end PA of the apex 32 is not less than 10 mm and not greater than 15 mm In a state where the tire 2 is mounted on a normal rim and an internal pressure of the tire 2 is adjusted to a normal internal pressure, a shape of a main body portion 36, of a carcass ply 34, which is located in a zone from a boundary portion between a tread 4 and each sidewall 6 to the outer end PA of each apex 32 is represented by a single circular arc, and a diameter of the circular arc is not less than 75% and not greater than 90% of a cross-sectional height of a carcass 14.

A run-flat tire includes side reinforcing rubber between a carcass layer and an innerliner layer in sidewall portions, first bead filler rubber arranged inside folded back portions of the carcass layer, and second bead filler rubber arranged outward of the folded back portions of the carcass layer in a lateral direction. In a meridian cross-section, a radial-direction height of the first bead filler rubber is 15% or greater and 40% or less of a cross-sectional height, a radial-direction height of the second bead filler rubber is 35% or greater and 55% or less of the cross-sectional height, a linear distance from a radial-direction outer end to a radial-direction inner end of the second bead filler rubber is 20% or greater and 45% or less of the cross-sectional height, and the second bead filler rubber has a larger cross-sectional area than the first bead filler rubber.

A tire includes a pair of beads; a carcass that is extended on and between the beads on both sides; and a pair of strips that extend almost outward from the beads along the carcass in the radial direction. The beads include cores, first apexes, and second apexes. The carcass includes a carcass ply, and the carcass ply includes a main portion and turned-up portions. The turned-up portions are disposed between the first apexes and the second apexes. The turned-up portions contact with the main portion in portions radially outward of outer ends of the first apexes. A position of an outer end of each strip is equal, in the radial direction, to a position Pb at which the maximum width is obtained, or the outer end of each strip is disposed radially inward of the position Pb at which the maximum width is obtained.

The present invention discloses a pneumatic tire.

The pneumatic tire includes a bead portion and a rim flange provided outside the bead portion. The rim flange is made of a rubber resistant to ozone and fatigue and a hardness reinforcing rubber portion is interposed between the rim flange and the bead portion. The pneumatic tire of the present invention avoids a change in the physical properties of the flange rubber, ozone cracks caused by ozone present in the air, and fatigue cracks caused by frequent flexion and extension to achieve improved handling stability and straight ahead ability.

The environmental footprint of a tire for a construction plant vehicle is improved. To do so, the elastomer compounds derived from non-fossil resources represent a mass content greater than or equal to 65% of the total mass of the compounds of the tire, at least 75% of the total mass of the compounds of the tire is made up of elastomer compounds each of which has a viscoelastic loss, measured in terms of tan(), less than or equal to 0.065, and an electrical resistivity greater than or equal to 1E+10 .Math.cm.

A pneumatic tire is provided. A bead filler is disposed on an outer circumferential side of each bead core in bead portions, a side reinforcing layer having a crescent-shaped cross-section is disposed on an inner side in a tire width direction of a carcass layer in a sidewall portion, and as physical properties of a rubber that constitutes the side reinforcing layer and a rubber that constitutes the bead filler, a modulus at 100% elongation is in a range from 8.4 MPa to 10.2 MPa, a tan at 60 C. is in a range from 0.04 to 0.08, and JIS hardness at 20 C. is in the range from 75 to 79.

A tire includes a circumferential tread, a pair of sidewalls, and a pair of bead portions. Each bead portion includes a bead and a bead filler having an apex. The tire also has a body ply extending from bead portion to bead portion. The body ply includes a pair of turn up portions radially outside of a respective bead portion. The tire further has a pair of wire reinforcements. Each wire reinforcement wraps around a respective bead and at least a portion of the body ply. The tire also includes a pair of reinforcement fillers. Each reinforcement filler has an inner surface in contact with an outer surface of a respective bead filler. A bottom end of each reinforcement filler is disposed radially above a top end of a respective wire reinforcement. The tire further includes an electronic device disposed radially below the apex of the bead filler of one of the pair of bead portions.
