Abstract: A bead wire for a tire includes a core, an outer layer, and at least one intermediate layer. The core includes at least one yarn of a multifilament textile fiber embedded in an organic matrix. The outer layer includes an outer-layer metal wire wound around the core. Each intermediate layer includes an intermediate-layer metal wire wound around the core. Each intermediate layer is disposed between the core and the outer layer.

Abstract: A multilayer laminate, which is usable as a reinforcing element for a finished article or for a semifinished product made of rubber, such as a tire, includes at least one polymer film having, in any tensile direction in the film's plane, a Young's modulus that is greater than 500 MPa. The film is positioned between and in contact with two layers formed of a rubber composition, such as natural rubber. Each layer formed of the rubber composition exhibits, in a crosslinked state, a secant modulus that, in extension at 10% elongation, is greater than 30 MPa, with between 30 and 150 MPa being preferable for the secant modulus.

Abstract: A tire carcass comprises two sidewalls (2) and a crown region (3) suitable for receiving, radially externally, a tread (4), the internal surface of the sidewalls and of the crown forming an internal wall (10), and also comprises a circumferential tread support surface (6) provided with a layer of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).

Abstract: A tire tread (4), comprising an inner face and an outer face, comprises a supporting surface (8) covered with a layer of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).

Abstract: A single-layer bead wire for a tyre includes a core and an outer layer. The core includes at least one yarn of a multifilament textile fibre embedded in an organic matrix. The outer layer includes a metal wire wound around and in contact with the core.

Abstract: Tire comprising at least one carcass-type reinforcing structure (6) anchored on each side of the tire. The anchoring includes a turning up of the carcass-type reinforcing structure around a bead core (15) in such a way as to form a turned-up section (8). The tire also includes at least one circumferential bielastic reinforcing element (10) made of a bielastic fabric, in which the fabric employed is a bielastic knitted fabric, that is a stitched fabric in which the loops forming the stitches are capable of moving relative to each other. The at least one bielastic reinforcing element (10) being arranged so as to extend substantially parallel along a portion of the reinforcing structure (6) which is situated in that region of the bead (4) of the tire that is axially outward relative to the reinforcing structure, in the immediate vicinity of the latter.

Abstract: A tire comprising a carcass reinforcement radially surmounted by a crown reinforcement comprising at least one layer of reinforcements, the tire furthermore comprising a bielastic reinforcing element extending circumferentially and comprising a bielastic fabric, the bielastic reinforcing element being, at least in part, radially adjacent to a portion of at least one reinforcing layer of the crown reinforcement, in the immediate proximity of an axial end of this reinforcing layer of the crown reinforcement.

Abstract: Tire comprising at least one carcass-type reinforcing structure (6) anchored on each side of the tire in a bead (4). The anchoring includes a turning up of said carcass-type reinforcing structure around a bead core (15) in such a way as to form a turned-up section (8) ending in a free end (13). The tire also includes at least one circumferential bielastic reinforcing element (10) made of a bielastic fabric, in which said fabric employed is a bielastic knitted fabric, that is to say a stitched fabric, the loops forming the stitches of which are able to move relative to each other in the knitting direction and in the direction perpendicular to the knitting. The at least one bielastic reinforcing element (10) is arranged so as to extend along the end region of the turned-up section of the carcass-type reinforcing structure.
