Abstract: A tire has a tread portion including a first shoulder land region. The first shoulder land region is provided with first shoulder sipes. Each of the first shoulder sipes is provided with a chamfered portion over an entire lengthwise range from a first longitudinal edge to a first tread edge. Each of the chamfered portions includes a first chamfered portion defined between a shoulder center position and the first longitudinal edge and a second chamfered portion defined between the shoulder center position and the first tread edge. The second chamfered portion has a chamfer volume smaller than a chamfer volume of the first chamfered portion.

Abstract: A winter tire includes a tread portion with a ground contact surface. The ground contact surface of the tread portion is provided with a recess. The recess is provided with a hole for fixing a stud pin and at least one projection extending radially outwardly and arranged at a location apart from the hole.

Abstract: Provided is a tire for winter of which on-snow performance can be improved without compromising anti-wandering performance. A tire for winter comprises a tread part The tread part is provided with: a plurality of first inclined major grooves extending at an incline from one tread end beyond a tire equator and ending without reaching another tread end; first inclined minor grooves provided between the first inclined major grooves; a plurality of second inclined major grooves extending at an incline from the other tread end, in a direction opposite the first inclined major grooves, beyond the tire equator and ending without reaching the one tread end; second inclined minor grooves provided between the second inclined major grooves; a plurality of first longitudinal grooves dividing first land parts; and a plurality of second longitudinal grooves dividing second land parts.

Abstract: A winter tire includes a tread portion with a designated rotational direction. The tread portion is provided with at least one central block on a tire equator. The central block includes a first tapered portion. The first tapered portion includes an axial width gradually decreasing toward the rotational direction and a leading edge extending along an axial direction of the tire. The first tapered portion is provided with a hole for installing a stud pin.

Abstract: A winter tire includes a tread portion provided with first inclined main grooves extending from a first tread edge near a tire equator, second inclined main grooves extending from a second tread edge near the tire equator, a first inner longitudinal groove connecting a pair of first inclined main grooves at the vicinity of the tire equator and a second inner longitudinal groove connecting a pair of second inclined main grooves at the vicinity of the tire equator. Each of the first inclined main grooves includes an axially first inner end portion extending along an axial direction of the tire to the second inner longitudinal groove, and each of the second inclined main grooves includes an axially second inner end portion extending along the axial direction of the tire to the first inner longitudinal groove.

Abstract: Downlink is achieved by point-to-multipoint communication. There is provided a radio communication system 1 that provides information to a mobile terminal 3 via a radio communication device 2 that performs radio communication with the mobile terminal 3. The mobile terminal 3 is capable of receiving first downlink information that has been transmitted by point-to-multipoint radio communication receivable by a plurality of the mobile terminals 3, and capable of receiving second downlink information that has been transmitted by point-to-point communication. The mobile terminal 3 is capable of transmitting uplink information by point-to-point radio communication. The first downlink information and the second downlink information are formed such that information to be used in the mobile terminal 3 is obtained when the mobile terminal 3 performs information processing by using both the first downlink information and the second downlink information.

Abstract: A mold pin fixed to a tread mold for a tire tread and forming a stud hole is disclosed. The mold pin is provided at one end of its main shaft portion with an expanded portion having a larger outer diameter. The expanded portion comprises a supporting part formed integrally with the main shaft portion, and an outer-shell part disposed on the outer surface of the supporting part to define the maximum outer diameter of the expanded portion. When a force directed from the main shaft portion toward the expanded portion is applied to the outer-shell part, the outer-shell part is moved so as to reduce the maximum outer diameter.
