Pneumatic tire comprising specified hoop reinforcer element

The invention relates to a tyre (10) comprising a hooping ply (19) comprising at least one textile wire-like hoop reinforcer element making an angle strictly less than 10 with the circumferential direction (Z) of the tyre (10). The bonded textile wire-like reinforcer element has, before the step of production of the hooping ply (19), a tangent modulus less than or equal to 5 cN/tex/% for any elongation less than or equal to 3%. The textile wire-like hoop reinforcer element has, once extracted from the tyre (10), a tangent modulus greater than or equal to 5 cN/tex/% for any elongation greater than or equal to 4%.

Tire comprising specified hooping ply

A tire (10) comprises a crown (12) comprising a tread (20), a crown reinforcement (14), a carcass reinforcement (32), two side walls (22), two beads (24), each side wall (22) linking each bead (24) to the crown (12), the crown reinforcement (14) extending in the crown (12) in a circumferential direction (Z) of the tire (10). The textile wire-like hoop reinforcer element (48), the wire-like working reinforcer elements (46) and the wire-like carcass reinforcer elements (44) are arranged so as to define, in projection on the equatorial circumferential plane (E), a triangular mesh. The textile wire-like hoop reinforcer element comprises a core composed of a first strand comprising at least one monofilament, and a layer comprising at least two second strands, each second strand comprising at least one monofilament, each second strand of the layer being helically wound around the core.

Pneumatic vehicle tire with specified belt bandage

A pneumatic vehicle tire for passenger cars comprises a carcass, a tread, and a belt which has belt plies and which is covered radially outwardly by a belt bandage having strengthening elements oriented approximately in the circumferential direction, the belt bandage comprising at least one belt bandage ply each consisting of a central section and two lateral sections each arranged next to the central section without overlapping the central section, the strengthening elements of the central section being x1 construction and the strengthening elements of each lateral section being identical cords of x2 or higher construction, the density of the strengthening elements in the central section being less than the density of the strengthening elements in the lateral sections, and the axial distance of each lateral section inner end from the closest end of the widest belt ply being 5-30 mm.
