  • Publication number: 20140141190
    Abstract: A method of repairing a composite material is provided in which a frustum-shaped portion of a composite material is removed, and the composite material and a repair material are bonded with each other while evacuating. The repair method includes step S2 of removing a damaged part 11 from the front side so as to pass through in the thickness direction while leaving a support wall protruding inward in the radial direction from the periphery of the top face of the frustum-shaped portion; step S3 of sealing the back side by placing a sealing plate, which is inserted from the front side into a through hole formed by the removing step, on the support wall; step S5 of placing the repair material through an adhesive on the composite material where the frustum-shaped portion has been removed; and step S6 of evacuating in a state in which the front side is sealed.

  • Publication number: 20110303333
    Abstract: Two open sipes are formed at a tire circumferential direction central side of a block, and closed sipes are formed in the block at both tire circumferential direction sides of the two open sipes. The depth of the open sipes is set in a range of 50 to 70% times the depth of a first circumferential direction main groove, and the depth dimension of the closed sipe is set in a range of 105 to 140% times the depth dimension of the open sipes. Accordingly high performance on ice is obtained while securing block rigidity.
