Abstract: In a thermoplastic elastomer having a matrix phase of a thermoplastic resin and a domain phase of rubber particles at least a part of which is crosslinked, use is made of rubber particles at least a part of which is conductive to provide a conductive thermoplastic elastomer composition having a volume resistivity that can be controlled over a wide range of from a conductive region (104 ((&OHgr;·cm) or less) to an insulting region (1013 (&OHgr;·cm) or more).

Abstract: A belt-shaped member cut into a predetermined length is fed from a feeding devices to a tire forming drum and is wound on its cylindrical peripheral surface. Center portions of the opposite ends of the belt-shaped member are pushed to be joined to each other and the side portions of at least one of the opposite ends of the belt-shaped member are held by upper and lower holding pawls. Such holding pawls are swung along an arcuate path so that both side portions of the opposite ends of the belt-shaped member are drawn near each other to abut against each other. The abutting end portions are pushed toward the peripheral surface of the drum by pushing devices for joining them together.

Abstract: A pneumatic radial tire to be fitted on a wheel in which a position wherein a disc is joined to a rim is offset from the center of the width of the rim toward the outer surface of said wheel, characterized in that the tire comprises an asymmetric structure in which a belt layer is provided between a tread and a carcass layer, an outer circumferential portion of the belt layer being covered with at least one belt covering layer, the at least one belt covering layer being disposed so that an average position of the center(s) of the width(s) thereof from the equator of the tire is deviated toward the opposite side of the offset side of the disc, a ratio e/w of the deviating distance e to the width w of a ground contacting portion of the tread being set to 0.05-0.13.

Abstract: A pneumatic radial tire formed so that, when the tire is inflated from a non-inflated state, in which the inner pressure thereof is 5% of a normal lever, to a normal inner pressure, a central region of the outer surface of the tread in a meridional cross section of the tire which is between two points P.sub.1, P.sub.1 ' spaced from the center P.sub.0 of a tread width to left and right along the outer surface of the tread by a distance L, which is expressed by the formula 0.25TW.ltoreq.L<0.50TW, with respect to a width TW of a ground contacting portion of the bread grows outward in the radial direction of the tire, shoulder regions on both outer sides of the two points P.sub.1, P.sub.1 ' contracting inward in the radial direction of the tire, with a radius of curvature R.sub.2 of a region, which is formed between two intermediate points P.sub.2, P.sub.2 ', which are positioned halfway respectively between the center P.sub.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire wherein a plurality of pitches different from each other in the length constitute the whole circumference of a tread surface, the total period length of each period is divided into a former half period length and a latter half period length, and (1) in every period, the ratio of either of the two half period lengths to the total period length is 15 to 30%, or (2) in the whole circumference of the tread surface, the average value of the ratio of a smaller half period length to the total period length is 15 to 30%.

Abstract: A method of synthesizing D-myoinositol-1-phosphate from 1,2-(R.sup.1)-3-R.sup.2 -myoinositol compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is a bridging type protective group bonded to two oxygen atoms at the 1- and 2-position, and R.sup.2 is a protective group coupled to the oxygen atom at the 3-position. D-Myoinositol-1-phosphate is useful as an intermediate for the production of inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate.

Abstract: An improved wire with an excellent adhesion with rubber is disclosed for reinforcing rubber goods, made by a diffusion process wherein oxides formed on the surface of plated metal during diffusion are removed before drawing.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a dynamic absorber with pneumatic springs, which absorber is adapted for absorbing a vibration of a machine caused by an excitation force generated in the machine. The dynamic absorber comprises a pair of pneumatic springs disposed to be spaced apart from one another along a preselected spring action line, a weight means supported between the pair of pneumatic springs and capable of vibrating, and a pressurized air pipeline circuit for introducing a pressurized air into the absorber and for exhausting the pressurized air from the absorber. The internal pressure of the pneumatic springs is remotely and adjustably regulated by a pressure regulating valve disposed in the pressurized air pipeline circuit.

Abstract: During the process of manufacturing tires, vulcanized tires are classified by the utilization of radiations into the white tire having a white rubber compound layer, or a white ribbon, and the black tire having no such white ribbon, while those tires are classified according to the external dimensions such as an inside diameter. More specifically, a radiation source provided on the side of one wallside of a tire emits radiations to the tire at a predetermined angle of inclination, while a radiation detector provided on the side of the other wallside of the tire detects the intensity of radiations which have passed through the tire, whereby the classification of tires is carried out according to the comparison of two outputs which the radiation detector produces at two predetermined relative positions of the tire and the radiation source.
