Publication number: 20200009927Abstract: A self-inflating tire assembly includes an air tube mounted within a tire sidewall groove. The air tube is in contacting engagement with opposite angled groove surfaces surrounding the air tube. A segment of the air tube is flattened from an expanded diameter to a flat diameter by bending and compression of the groove in a rolling tire footprint to force air evacuated from the flattened segment along a tube air passageway. The sidewall groove extends into an annular, axially extending, sidewall surface such as an axially oriented surface of a tire chafer protrusion located in non-contacting relationship with the rim. The air tube is extruded from a rubber composition, the rubber composition comprising: a diene based rubber; from 0.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 4, 2019Publication date: January 9, 2020Inventors: Andreas FRANTZEN, Carolin Anna WELTER, Anne Therese PERONNET-PAQUIN, Mingliang DU, Stephan RODEWALD, Betul BUEHLER, Benjamin Isaiah GARN, Daniel VOJTKO, Jungmee KANG, Dinesh CHANDRA

Publication number: 20140150945Abstract: A system includes a tire having a tire cavity, first and second sidewalls extending respectively from first and second tire beads to a common tire tread, and a compression actuator means mounted to the tire within the tire cavity for delivering air to the tire cavity. The compression actuator means includes a hollow containment body formed from a resilient deformable material and containing a quantity of a non-compressible medium. The hollow containment body reciprocally deforms or transforms between a deformed state and a non-deformed state responsive to deformation and recovery of the tire while rotating. The hollow containment body in the deformed state displaces a quantity of the non-compressible medium for generating a compression force from which a volume of air is delivered to the tire cavity. The hollow containment body is shaped to facilitate pivoting during rotation of the tire.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2012Publication date: June 5, 2014Applicant: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber CompanyInventors: Kundan Kumar, Anne Therese Peronnet-Paquin, Edwin Deerenberg, Daniel Paul Luc Marie Hinque
