Pneumatic tire and method of manufacturing same
In a pneumatic tire, a partial tie rubber layer is disposed between a carcass layer and an innerliner layer in a limited manner across an entire region excluding end portions near a pair of bead portions; end surfaces on both sides in a tire lateral direction of the partial tie rubber layer are inclined surfaces that form an acute angle with respect to a surface of the partial tie rubber layer on the carcass layer side; and an inclination angle of the inclined surfaces with respect to the surface of the partial tie rubber layer on the carcass layer side is from 20° to 60°.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
In a pneumatic tire, a belt cover disposed on an outer side in a radial direction of a belt layer includes a cover portion having a width equal to a width of the belt cover, and edge cover portions layered on the cover portion at two locations on both sides of the cover portion. Of the edge cover portions at the two locations, one of the edge cover portions is located on a radially inner side of the cover portion, and the other of the edge cover portions is located on a radially outer side of the cover portion. The belt cover is a single strip material having a band-like shape spirally wound about a tire rotation axis, and the cover portion at least partially includes a portion where circumferential portions adjacent in the width direction of the strip material that is spirally wound overlap in the radial direction.
TIRE
A tread of a tire can include a cap layer and a base layer. A loss tangent of the cap layer at 30° C. may be not greater than 0.30, and a loss tangent of the base layer at 30° C. may be less than the loss tangent of the cap layer at 30° C. The base layer can be inward of a reference end of the tread in an axial direction A fixing layer can be between the cap layer and a carcass in a radial direction. A first end of the fixing layer can be outward of an end of the base layer in the axial direction, or a position of the first end of the fixing layer can coincide with a position of the end of the base layer in the axial direction. Adhesiveness of the fixing layer can be higher than adhesiveness of the cap layer.
HEAVY DUTY PNEUMATIC TIRE
A tire 2 includes a reinforcing layer 20 located between a tread 4 and a carcass 12. The reinforcing layer 20 includes a band 38 and a belt 40. The band 38 includes a full band 42 and a pair of edge bands 44. The full band 42 has an end 42e located axially outward of a shoulder circumferential groove 28s. The belt 40 includes a third belt ply 46C located radially inward of the pair of edge bands 44. A distance Y between each edge band 44 and the full band 42 or the third belt ply 46C is not less than 2.2 mm and not greater than 4.0 mm. A ratio of a tire thickness E at an end PE of a tread surface 22 to a tire thickness D at an equator plane is not less than 1.2 and not greater than 2.0.
Heavy load pneumatic radial tire with cap tread rubber, base tread rubber, and reinforcing rubber layer
Heavy load pneumatic radial tire according to the present invention includes: tread rubber 6 having laminated structure of cap rubber 5 and base rubber 4; and four or more belt layers 3a-3e disposed radially inward of tread rubber 6. A radially outer side of a width direction side edge of at least one of radially outermost belt layer 3e and widest-width belt layer 3c is covered by reinforcing rubber layer 7 that terminates on a radially inner side of tread rubber 6 without reaching tire equatorial plane E. Relative relation between reinforcing rubber constituting reinforcing rubber layer 7 and base rubber 4 in terms of modulus of rebound elasticity satisfies the condition: reinforcing rubber<base rubber 4.

RUN-FLAT TIRE
A run-flat tire has a belt-end reinforcing layer provided between the tread portion and a width outside end of the belt layer, and formed of a resin material. The belt-end reinforcing layer is annular along a tire circumferential direction, has a predetermined width along the tire width direction, and is provided in the tire width direction so as to cover a radial outside end of a side reinforcing rubber and a width outside end of the belt layer.
RUN-FLAT TIRE
A run-flat tire is provided with a belt layer having a circumferential cord extending along the tire circumferential direction covered with a resin material, a first resin reinforcing layer provided on the outside of the belt layer of the tire radial direction and formed of a resin material, and a second resin reinforcing layer provided on the inside of the belt layer of the tire radial direction and formed of a resin material, wherein the first resin reinforcing layer and the second resin reinforcing layer have a predetermined width along the tire width direction and are provided so as to sandwich the tire radial direction outside end of a side reinforcing rubber from the outside of the tire radial direction and the inside of the tire radial direction.
TIRE HAVING A CONDUCTIVE PATH IN A SIDEWALL
A tire includes a circumferential tread disposed in a crown region of the tire and an undertread disposed below the circumferential tread. The tire also has a pair of bead regions, including a first bead region and a second bead region, and a body ply extending from the first bead region to the second bead region. The tire further has a pair of sidewalls, including a first sidewall extending between the first bead region and the circumferential tread and a second sidewall extending between the second bead region and the circumferential tread. The tire also has a sidewall antenna adjacent to the first sidewall. The sidewall antenna has a first end contacting the undertread and a second end contacting the body ply.
