Provided is a composite film for attachment to an elastomeric substrate. The composite film comprises the following layers, in the order below: an elastomeric layer comprising a thermoplastic polyurethane; an ink layer; and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer comprising a styrenic block copolymer blended with a phenolic resin. Advantageously, the provided composite films can withstand harsh outdoor environments and stresses while providing high anchorage to elastomeric substrates, such as car tires, for a long service life.

The present invention aims at solving tire storing information problems by providing a method and system for identifying sets of tires. the system of identification comprises a band made of resilient yet flexible material comprising identification information related to a tire, such as the owner's or a garage contact information, the installation localization of the tire and so on. The band may be secured to a tire, with or without rim, by an attachment mechanism, such as hook and loops or quick release clips. The information may be affixed to the band by sewing another piece of fabric material, installing a paper into a plastic cover or by pinning a pin. The information may be in the form of text, images, colors or code bars. The invention is not limited to warehouses, as it may further be used in home storage and garages.

A signage support for vehicle tires for attaching objects such as signage to the sidewall area of unmounted vehicle tires. The signage support for vehicle tires generally includes a cross member having a first end and a second end, a first connector attached to the first end and a second connector attached to the second end. The first connector and second connector are configured to connect to the inner edge of the side opening of a vehicle tire. The cross member is configured to extend or retract to allow for connection to various sizes and types of vehicle tires. Signage or other objects are attached to the cross member or extended members extending from the connectors.

A device for displaying data is disclosed. The device includes a mount, and enclosure with two outward-sloped walls, and two video displays within the enclosure each facing outward through windows in the outward-sloped walls of the enclosure. A shield optionally couples to the enclosure via a post. Also, optionally, a solar battery couples to the solar cell to store energy from the solar cell. Further, a panel optionally couples to the enclosure, e.g., via a hinge, track system, etc. so the panel may selectively cover and not cover at least one of the video displays in the windows of the enclosure.

A thermoluminescent tire safety indicator structure includes a vehicle wheel and at least one luminescent indicator. The vehicle wheel includes a tire and a wheel disk. The luminescent indicator includes a styling pattern formed on the tire and/or the wheel disk and a thermoluminescent coating layer provided on the styling pattern. The thermoluminescent coating layer includes compounds with nano-scale thermoluminescent crystals and thermosetting polyester resins. The thermoluminescent coating layer on the vehicle wheel fluoresces for aesthetics as well as safety and warning effects when temperature on the tire and/or the wheel disk of a running vehicle increases.
