摘要:
A pneumatic tire has a carcass structure extending through a pair of opposing bead portions and an inner liner located inward of the carcass structure, each bead portion comprising a bead core about which is wrapped the carcass structure and a toeguard. Each bead portion has a bead toe, a bead base, and a bead heel, the bead base extending between the bead toe and the bead heel. The bead heel has a profile corresponding to a sector of an ellipse or approximates a sector of an ellipse by having a dual radius structure. The bead base may have a dual taper configuration. The bead core may be substantially centered in the bead portion, as determined by the material thickness at three locations about the bead core.

A pneumatic radial ply tire for heavier load conditions having a reduced weight, high durability bead area. The pneumatic tire includes a tire bead and a carcass ply folded about the bead to define a main body portion and a turnup portion. The turnup portion is folded around the bead and located adjacent the main body portion radially outward of the bead. The turnup portion has a turnup height of approximately 35-45% of the total section height. A thin rubber strip associated with the bead is disposed between the main body portion and the turnup portion and has an insert height of approximately 25% of the total section height. The pneumatic tire further includes a chafer having a maximum chafer gauge of not more than approximately 1.5 times the thickness of the tire side wall.

A heavy duty tire comprises a tread portion, a pair of sidewall portions, a pair of bead portions each with a bead core therein, the bead core with an aspect ratio (HC1/WC) of from 0.43 to 0.58, and a carcass comprising a carcass ply of cords extending between the bead portions and turned up around a bead core in each bead portion from the inside to outside of the tire so as to form a pair of turnup portions and a main portion therebetween, the turnup portion comprising a turnup main-part extending along an axially inner surface, a radially inner surface and an axially outer surface of the bead core smoothly, and a turnup sub-part extending from the turnup main-part toward the main portion near the radially outer surface of the bead core.

A heavy duty tire comprises a bead core disposed in each bead portion, and a carcass ply of steel cords extending between the bead portions. The edges of the carcass ply are winded around the bead cores from the axially inside to outside of the tire to form a pair of winded portions and a main portion therebetween. The winded portion around the bead core comprises an axially inwardly extending turnback part above the bead core, and a base part under the bead core. The base part is curved concavely so as to form a space between the base part and the bead core, and an anchor rubber having a complex elastic modulus of from 20 to 80 MPa is disposed in the space to tightly pinch the carcass cords between the anchor rubber and the bead seat of the wheel rim.

The invention can firmly fix both ends of a carcass ply while maintaining a weight saving and an effect of inhibiting a bead damage high. A pneumatic tire is provided with a bead core (5) constituted by core separated pieces (20U, 20L) separated into upper and lower sides in a radial direction, a bead apex rubber (8) extending from an upper surface thereof to an upper side in the radial direction, and a carcass ply (6A) having a ply lock portion (11) locked to the bead core (5). The ply lock portion (11) is provided with an apex and core horizontal ply portion (31) pinched between the bead core (5) and the bead apex rubber (8), or a core lower ply portion (32) extending along a lower surface of the lower core separated piece (20L), or a lower middle vertical ply portion (33Lm) pinched between separated portions (20Li, 20Lo) formed by separating the lower core separated piece (20L) into inner and outer portions in a tire axial direction, in addition to a separated piece horizontal ply portion (30) pinched between the core separated pieces (20U, 20L).

A tire bead core has an annular body formed by annularly winding and bundling one bead wire in the form of a quadrangle in cross section which has two pairs of opposing sides substantially parallel to each other. The annular body comprises a plurality of winding portions radially stacked, each of which comprises sections of the bead wire annularly wound so as to align in a widthwise direction of the bead core. A winding portion of the annular body located radially outward is displaced to one side of the widthwise direction with respect to a winding portion of the annular body located radially inward.

A pneumatic tire has a compact bead configuration, and high interlocking forces between the carcass ply cords and the bead cords. The carcass ply is formed from one or more cords wound continuously between a first end and a second end, wherein the at least the first end of the carcass ply is located in one tire bead portions. In the bead portion of the tire, the carcass ply cords are interwoven among a plurality of bead wires. The interwoven carcass ply cords follow a zigzag path.

A tire/wheel assembly, wherein a run-flat support body (3), comprising an annular shell (4) having an outer peripheral side as a support surface and an inner peripheral side formed in fork-shaped open legs and elastic rings (5) supporting the ends of the legs on a rim, is inserted into a hollow part of a pneumatic tire (2), and wherein the height (A) of the run-flat support body (3) in the cross section thereof is 50 to 60% of the height (SH) of the pneumatic tire (2) in the cross section thereof, and wherein the cross sectional area of the bead cores (7) of the pneumatic tire (2) is 25 to 40 mm2.

A tire carcass structure includes at least one carcass ply and a pair of annular reinforcing structures. The at least one carcass ply includes a first and second series of strip segments. Each strip segment extends around a cross-section profile of the carcass structure to define two lateral portions and an annulus portion. Each annular reinforcing structure includes at least one primary portion and at least one additional portion. The at least one primary portion includes a first circumferentially-inextensible annular insert and a filling body. The at least one additional portion includes at least one second circumferentially-inextensible annular insert. The first annular insert and the at least one second annular insert include one or more elongated elements extending in substantially-concentric turns. A radial extension of the at least one second annular insert is less than a radial extension of the first annular insert.

The invention provides an assembly of a pneumatic tire and a rim. The tire has at least one carcass ply 2 and a belt layer 8. The ply 2 is composed of ply cords and has end portions. The belt layer 8 is composed of belt cords provided outside of the ply 2. Each belt cord extends in a direction intersecting the ply cord. Each of the end portions is held in the rim 12. The width of the tire is maximum in a circumferential cross section “T” with a cylindrical shape with respect to the center axis “D” of the tire. The cross section “T” extends through the rim 10. When the tire is rolled under a load and a stress is applied on the tire as an arrow “X”, a neighboring portion 2d near the end portions 2a, 2b is considerably bending-deformed as arrows “Y” to absorb the stress. The roundness of the belt layer 8 is thus preserved to reduce the rolling resistance of the tire considerably.
