  • External patch for puncture or slice on sidewall or tread section of a tire
    Patent number: 11305500
    Abstract: A method and/or article is used for repairing of a worn, damaged, punctured or sliced but otherwise functional vehicle tire, for example on the sidewall of the tire. An external patch includes a layer of adhesive applied directly to the slice or puncture and a patch portion that is applied to an exterior surface of a vehicle tire. A separate adhesive affixes the patch portion to the exterior surface of the tire. The adhesive is in contact with a contact surface of the patch portion and also with the exterior surface of the tire. The adhesive may not form a continuous layer, but may hold the patch to the tire by discrete anchor points of adhesive, the anchor points being separated by adhesiveless areas.
