PNEUMATIC TIRE
In a pneumatic tire including a bead core, a first bead filler on an outer circumference of the bead core, a carcass turned up from an inner side to an outer side around the bead core and the first bead filler, and a second bead on an outer side of a turned up portion of the carcass, a height of an upper end of the first bead filler is 10%-30% of a cross-sectional height, a turned up end of the carcass is on a radially outer side of a maximum width position, an upper end of the second bead filler is between the upper end and the turned up end, the second bead filler has a shape tapered toward the radially outer side, and thicknesses G1 to G3 of the second bead filler at predetermined positions satisfy 0.5<G2/G1<0.8 and 0.4<G3/G1<0.6.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
A pneumatic tire has a bead portion provided with a bead core and a bead apex rubber. The bead apex rubber extends radially outward from the radially outer surface of the bead core, and has a radially outer end not positioned in a first region. The first region is defined between a first radial line and a second radial line. The first radial line extends straight through a radially outer end of a contact area where the bead portion comes into contact with a flange of a wheel rim. The second radial line extends straight through a position spaced 10 mm axially outward from the radially outer end of the contact area.
Bias tire
Provided is a bias tire including: bead cores; a bead filler disposed outward of each of the bead cores in a radial direction; and a carcass layer stretching between the bead cores, wrapping around end portions of the bead cores, the carcass layer having opposite ends turned back to be fixed, wherein in a cross section in a meridian direction, a cord on an innermost side of the carcass layer in a tire lateral direction has a curved shape projecting laterally outward at a height from 0.9 times to 1.6 times a height of a flange of a rim on which the bias tire is assembled, and in the cross section in the meridian direction, a cord on an outermost side of the carcass layer in the lateral direction has a curved shape projecting laterally outward at a height from 1.1 times to 1.6 times the height of the flange.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire includes a pair of bead portion, a pair of bead cores, a carcass extending between the pair of bead cores, and a pair of bead apex rubbers. Each bead core includes a core inner surface on an inner side in the tire radial direction of the bead core. In a pre-assemble state, each core inner surface has an angle of 20 degrees plus/minus 2 degrees to the tire axial direction, and is inclined outwardly in the tire radial direction toward an outer side in the tire axial direction. The bead apex rubber includes a first rubber portion arranged so as to cover a circumference of the bead core and having a circular or substantially elliptical outline, and a second rubber portion tapering outwardly in the tire radial direction from the first rubber portion. The first rubber portion is greater in hardness than the second rubber portion.
TRUCK TIRE WITH STIFF OUTER BEAD PRODUCTS
A heavy truck tire is provided with a bead design that has a bead core and a reinforcement ply that wraps around a section of the bead core and has a return casing ply. Bead filler is present that has a portion radially outward from the bead core and axially inboard from the return casing ply. A stiffener layer is present that has a portion located outboard from the return casing ply. The bead has a first bead layer with a portion between the return casing ply and the stiffener layer, and a second bead layer that has a portion outboard from the stiffener layer. The stiffness of the first and second bead layers is 8 MPa to 14 MPa. The stiffness of the bead filler is less than the stiffness of the first and second bead layers.
PNEUMATIC TIRE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A pneumatic tire includes a pair of bead portions, a pair of bead cores each disposed in a respective one of the pair of bead portions, a carcass extending between the pair of bead cores, the carcass including a carcass ply that includes a main portion extending between the pair of bead cores and a pair of turn-up portions each turned up around a respective one of the pair of bead cores from axially inside to outside of the tire and extending outwardly in a tire radial direction, and a reinforcing rubber layer disposed in each bead portion and being adjacent to an axially outside of the turn-up portion, wherein the reinforcing rubber layer has a laminated body in which a plurality of sheet-shaped rubber members having different radial lengths are laminated in the tire axial direction.
RUN-FLAT TIRE
Provided is a run-flat tire. A first bead filler is disposed on an outer circumferential side of a bead core, a second bead filler is disposed on an outer side in a tire width direction of a turned up portion of the carcass layer along the turned up portion of the carcass layer, and a thickness G on a first reference line of a side reinforcing layer, a thickness G1 on a second reference line of the side reinforcing layer, and a thickness G2 on a third reference line of the side reinforcing layer satisfy the relationships of 0.8×G≤G1≤1.0×G and 0.5×G≤G2≤0.7×G.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
A pneumatic tire includes a pair of bead portion, a pair of bead cores, a carcass extending between the pair of bead cores, and a pair of bead apex rubbers. Each bead core includes a core inner surface on an inner side in the tire radial direction of the bead core. In a pre-assemble state, each core inner surface has an angle of 20 degrees plus/minus 2 degrees to the tire axial direction, and is inclined outwardly in the tire radial direction toward an outer side in the tire axial direction. The bead apex rubber includes a first rubber portion arranged so as to cover a circumference of the bead core and having a circular or substantially elliptical outline, and a second rubber portion tapering outwardly in the tire radial direction from the first rubber portion. The first rubber portion is greater in hardness than the second rubber portion.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire comprises: a bead portion provided with an inside bead apex rubber disposed between a turned up portion and a main portion of a carcass ply, and an outside bead apex rubber disposed axially outside the turned up portion and having a radially outer edge; and a the sidewall portion provided with a sidewall reinforcing cord layer disposed axially outside the carcass and having a radially inner edge which is spaced apart from the radially outer edge of the outside bead apex rubber by a radial distance of not less than 5% of a tire section height.
Pneumatic tire with bead filler applied with multiple rubber layer
A pneumatic tire with a bead filler has a side wall curved at both sides of a tread that is a thick rubber layer that comes in direct contact with a road surface, a bead core seated on a rim of a vehicle, and a bead part having a difference of rubber hardness. The pneumatic tire includes a carcass that is an internal frame of the tire and is provided to be turned up around the bead core of the bead part, in which the bead part includes: a first bead filler that is surrounded by the carcass and a turned-up carcass inside the tire; and a second bead filler that is disposed between the outer side of the turned-up carcass, the side wall, and the rim, and is applied with multiple rubber layers composed of different kinds of rubber layers to reduce weight and improve rolling resistance.
