Publication number: 20100065184Abstract: A pneumatic tire includes a tread, two annular bead portions, a carcass ply having two turnup end portions, a first reinforcing structure disposed at one of the bead portions, and an annular first cap structure encompassing a first end portion of the first reinforcing structure. Each turnup end portion is wrapped around one of the annular bead portions. The first reinforcing structure is disposed at one of the bead portions. The first cap structure encompasses the first end portion of the first reinforcing structure. The first cap structure has a U-shaped cross-section for surrounding the first end portion. The first cap structure is constructed of reinforced fabric with fibers oriented in the range from ?45° to +45° with respect to a radial direction of the pneumatic tire.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2008Publication date: March 18, 2010Inventors: Osama Hamzeh, Mingliang Du, Ding Xu, Mahesh Kavaturu, Nizar Toumni, Olivier de Barsy

Patent number: 7523774Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2005Date of Patent: April 28, 2009Assignee: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber CompanyInventors: Jean-Claude Lahure, Olivier de Barsy, Xavier Sebastien Benolt Fraipont

Publication number: 20090095387Abstract: A tread 10 for a tire 2 has a plurality of tread elements or ribs 6, the shape of these tread ribs 6 is defined by a plurality of open grooves 12. The tread 10 has at least one full depth groove 12. The full depth groove 12 has a radially innermost groove bottom 14 providing a measuring location to establish the distance between the groove bottom 14 and outer surface of the tread 10 defining the tread depth. At least one tread rib 6 adjacent the at least one full depth groove 12 has one or more sipes 21, 22, 22A, or 24 extending radially inwardly from a radially outermost surface of the tread rib 6 inwardly to a depth greater than the distance X. The distance X defines a fully worn tread depth level extending radially above the full depth groove bottom 14. Preferably the location X is defined by a tread wear indicator (TWI) molded into the tread indicating the location of the distance X relative to the groove bottom 14 which defines the fully worn tread depth.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2007Publication date: April 16, 2009Applicant: THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER CO.Inventor: Olivier De Barsy
