Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a method of building a tire having at least one cord reinforced belt ply. The method is comprised of layering various tire components on a tire building drum. Prior to placing the belt ply on the building drum, at least one belt ply is longitudinally cut, forming a plurality of belt ply segments. The belt ply segments are placed onto the building drum and the cords in each belt ply segment are oriented in the same direction. Also disclosed is a longitudinal cutter for dividing belt ply material into the plurality of belt ply segments. The cutter has at least a pair of shear cutters and a cutting surface against which the shear cutters rotate to cut the continuous belt ply. The shear cutters are mounted on a rail and are moveable along the length of the rail.

Abstract: The present technology provides a method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire. The method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire uses a laminated sheet having a predetermined length and an inner liner layer formed from the laminated sheet through a step of cure-molding the tire with end portions of the laminated sheet lap-spliced. In the method, when at least the sheet made of thermoplastic resin or a thermoplastic resin composition obtained by blending the thermoplastic resin and the elastomer is cut into the predetermined length, the cutting is performed by using an edge tool having a non-sharp edge under a temperature condition not lower than 60° C. and not higher than a melting point of the thermoplastic resin.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire for use on a vehicle includes a pair of beads, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a tread. Sidewall plies form portions of respective sidewalls. The plies extend around respective beads to form respective inside turn-ups. Central plies extend between and overlap the sidewall plies. The overlap of the plies forms overlap regions proximate respective shoulders sized to protect the tire from penetration by road debris during use of the tire. The tire may be belt-less. A tire set includes tires differing in section width and/or section height. At least one of the sidewall plies in the set is substantially the same width as the corresponding sidewall ply in another tire in the set. A method of making tires of different section width and/or section height includes using a source of plies used for supplying at least one of the plies in each tire in the set.
