Abstract: The invention relates to a pneumatic radial tire for heavy duty vehicles such as trucks, buses etc., having an improved reinforced structure of bead section, which can be effectively improved in the durability under very heavy load conditions and can be recapped two or three times without damaging the base tire.The radial tire for heavy duty, comprises: a carcass ply (2) of a radial or a semi-radial construction composed of at least one rubberized metal cord ply; a first metallic cord reinforcing layer (4) disposed at the outside of the turned up portion (2') of the carcass ply (2); and a second fiber cord reinforcing layer (6) secured to the inner surface of the carcass ply main portion.The radially inner portion of the second reinforcing layer (6) is interposed by a given width (L) between the turned up portion (4') of the first reinforcing layer (4) and the main portion of the carcass ply in bead base portion.

Abstract: A pin diode having an incident layer which includes 1 to 10% of microcrystallized silicon is formed in a condition where a molar ratio of hydrogen to monosilane is 5:1 to 100:1 and applied power is 0.001 to 0.05 W/cm.sup.2. The pin diode as well as a contact image sensor comprising the same as excellent photoelectric transfer efficiency.

Abstract: A radial tire for heavy loads, comprises: a pair of bead cores; a carcass the ends of which are turned up around the bead cores to form a carcass main part and a carcass turned up part on the axially inside and the outside of the bead core, respectively; a metallic cord reinforcing layer turned up around the bead core to form (a) an outside part extending along the axially outside of the carcass turned up part and (b) an inside part extending along the axially inside of the carcass main part; an outside reinforcing layer of organic fiber cords disposed axially outside the outside part of the metallic cord reinforcing layer; an inside reinforcing layer of organic fiber cords disposed on the axially inside of the carcass main part; a bead apex between the carcass main part and the turned up part extending radially outwardly beyond the radially outer end of the outside reinforcing layer; a rubber chafer disposed outside the outside reinforcing layer; and an inner sidewall disposed between the outside reinforcing
