Abstract: A pneumatic tire comprising a belt formed of two inclined belt layers formed of a rubberized layer of cords extending in a manner inclined with respect to a tire circumferential direction, the cords crossing each other between the layers, wherein: the two inclined belt layers have different tire widthwise widths W1 (mm) and W2 (mm); a ratio W2/W1 satisfies a relation expression 0.25?(W2/W1)?0.8; a tire radial outer side of the belt further includes a reinforcing belt formed of one or more circumferential belt layers formed of a rubberized layer of cords extending along the tire circumferential direction; and a circumferential rigidity of the reinforcing belt in a tire widthwise region between an end of the one inclined belt layer and an end of the other inclined belt layer is higher than a circumferential rigidity of the reinforcing belt in a tire widthwise inner side of the region.

Abstract: The pneumatic tire for passenger vehicle includes on a tread portion a main belt formed of at least two inclined belt layers formed of a rubberized layer of cords extending in a manner inclined with respect to a tire circumferential direction, and a reinforcing belt formed of at least one circumferential belt layer formed of a rubberized layer of cords extending along the tire circumferential direction, the reinforcing belt arranged on a tire radial outer side of the main belt, the main belt and the reinforcing belt arranged spanning from a tire equatorial plain of the tread portion to shoulder portion sides, wherein a thickness between the cords of two of the inclined belt layers adjacent to each other is larger in the shoulder portions than in a central portion of the tread portion.

Abstract: An electromagnetic type retarder comprises a main portion consisting of a stator having a plurality of magnetic coils arranged along a circle and spaced apart from one another, and of a steel rotor surrounding the stator and rotated according to the rotation of a tire; a driving device for the main portion to be controlled by an operation signal; and an output terminal for an additional device; the magnetic coils consisting of three-phase or two-phase connections. Each of the magnetic coils is connected with a capacitor so as to form a resonance circuit, respectively. The driving device has transistors connected in series to each of the connections and controlled so as to be opened and closed by the operation signal. The revolution speed of a rotary magnetic field generated by AC voltage induced in the magnetic coils forming the resonance circuits by the rotation of the steel rotor is set smaller than the revolution speed of the steel rotor.
