TRUCK TIRE
A pneumatic tire for use on trucks, the tire comprising: a tread which includes a belt reinforcement structure, the belt structure including a pair of working belts, wherein the angle of the working belts range from about 10 degrees to about 50 degrees, and wherein the first working belt has an angle of the reinforcements different that the angle of the belt reinforcements of the second working belt. The belt package further includes a low angle belt that is preferably positioned between of the working belts, wherein the angle of the low angle belt is less than 5 degrees. The working belts and the low angle belt are extensible, and preferably made of high elongation wire. The pneumatic tire further includes a wherein the tread is formed of a treadcap compound having a tensile at break greater than 18 MPa, and an elongation at break greater than 450%.
FABRIC STRUCTURE FOR A TIRE
A tire includes a carcass ply, a tread disposed radially outward of a crown region of the carcass ply, a belt structure having an overall axial width substantially equal to a tread width interposed between the tread and the crown region in circumferential surrounding relation to the carcass ply, and a fabric layer including a single flat monofilament wrapped with one or more multifilament cords, the monofilament being nylon, the multifilaments being a material consisting from the group of aramid, glass, and carbon.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
In a pneumatic tire, a tread average thickness A in a tire width direction region of a center land portion where a center cover layer is disposed, a tread average thickness B in a tire width direction region of the center land portion where the center cover layer is not disposed, and a tread average thickness C in tire width direction regions where second land portions located further on an outer side than the center land portion in a tire width direction and adjacent to the center land portion are defined and formed satisfy a relationship A<B<C.
PNEUMATIC RADIAL TIRE
A pneumatic radial tire is provided that includes belt layers disposed on an outer circumferential side of a carcass layer in a tread portion, and a belt cover layer disposed on an outer circumferential side of the belt layers, the belt cover layer including organic fiber cords helically wound along a tire circumferential direction, the belt layers including steel cords arranged at an incline with respect to the tire circumferential direction in such a manner as to intersect one another between the layers, each of the belt layers having a bending rigidity of 16500 N.Math.mm.sup.2/.sub.50 mm or less per 50 mm width in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the steel cords, and the belt cover layer including organic fiber cords having an elongation of 2.0% to 4.0% under a load of 2.0 cN/dtex, the organic fiber cords being helically wound along the tire circumferential direction.
TIRE SET AND TRICYCLE
A tire set for a tricycle having one first wheel and two second wheels includes one first tire to be mounted on the first wheel and two second tires to be mounted on the second wheels. Each of the second tires has a cornering power of 50% or more and less than 100% of a cornering power of the first tire.
Run-Flat Tire
A run-flat tire includes a belt reinforcing layer outward of a belt layer in a tire radial direction and reinforcing rubber in sidewall portions. Where a center region is a region of a tread portion in which a center land portion corresponding to a land portion included in land portions in a tread portion and located closest to a tire equatorial plane is positioned, the belt reinforcing layer includes a center reinforcing portion in which more pieces of the belt reinforcing layer are layered at a position of the center region than at positions other than the position of the center region, and in the belt reinforcing layer, a width Wc of the center reinforcing portion in a tire lateral direction with respect to a thickness Gr of the side reinforcing rubber at a tire maximum width position is within a range of 0.5 Gr≤Wc≤2.0 Gr.
LOW-NOISE TIRE
The tire (10) for a passenger vehicle has an axially central portion and axially lateral portions. The axially central portion and each axially lateral portion satisfies just one of conditions I, II, III: I—the portion comprises no transverse cut (90, 90′), II—the portion comprises N transverse cuts (90, 90′) arranged in such a way that π×OD/N≥40 mm, III—the portion comprises N transverse cuts (90, 90′) arranged in such a way that π×OD/N≤24 mm, condition I or II being satisfied by the axially central portion or by an axially lateral portion, and condition III being satisfied by the axially central portion or by an axially lateral portion.
PNEUMATIC RADIAL TIRE
In a pneumatic tire, a plurality of belt layers disposed on an outer circumferential side of a carcass layer in a tread portion are formed of steel cords each having a 1×M structure formed of a number of wire strands. The number of wire strands corresponds to one to six wire strands. A tensile modulus of elasticity of the steel cords under 5 N to 50 N load is 130 GPa or more. The steel cords are arranged inclined with respect to a tire circumferential direction to intersect each other in layers of the belt layers. The belt cover layer disposed on an outer circumferential side of the belt layers is formed of organic fiber cords having elongation of 2.0% to 4.0% under 2.0 cN/dtex load. The organic fiber cords are wound helically along the tire circumferential direction.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
A pneumatic tire has a rubber hardness higher than a rubber hardness of a rim cushion rubber, and includes a reinforced rubber between a turned back portion of a carcass layer and a sidewall rubber and between the turned back portion and the rim cushion rubber. A height H1 of a bead filler based on a measuring point of a rim diameter has a relationship of 0.10≤H1/SH≤0.23 with respect to a tire cross-sectional height SH. A height H2 of the reinforced rubber based on the measuring point of the rim diameter has a relationship of 0.40≤H2/SH≤0.55 with respect to the tire cross-sectional height SH. A cross-sectional area S2 of the reinforced rubber in a cross-sectional view in a tire meridian direction has a relationship of 1.10≤S2/S1≤2.70 with respect to a cross-sectional area S1 of the bead filler.
