  • Patent number: 9168787
    Abstract: Provided is a steel cord for reinforcing rubber articles which has both rubber penetration and productivity and which allows to reduce the weight of a tire without compromising the strength of the tire when applied to a tire, and a pneumatic tire using the same. The steel cord for reinforcing rubber articles of the present invention is a steel cord for reinforcing rubber articles comprising a core formed by arranging two core filaments in parallel without twisting the filaments together, and six sheath filaments twisted around the core. Letting the diameter of the core filament dc (mm), the diameter of the sheath filament ds (mm) and sheath filament twist pitch p (mm), an average sheath filament interval D represented by the following Formula (I): D=[L?6ds{1+(L/p)2}1/2]/6??(I), (where L=(?+2)dc+?ds) is from 25 to 80 ?m.

  • Publication number: 20100319830
    Abstract: Provided is a pneumatic tire for heavy loads in which durability and a desired rigidity in circumferential direction are simultaneously attained while achieving a reduction in the tire weight. The present invention is a pneumatic tire for heavy loads having at least one layer of steel belt in which a plurality of steel cords 1, each of which is constituted by a plurality of intertwisted filaments 11, are arranged in parallel in the form of bundles. In the pneumatic tire for heavy loads, the height of cord bundles 2, that is, the minor axis (A) (mm) of the steel cords 1 and the bundle width (B) (mm), satisfy the relationship represented by the following Formula (1): B/A?2.0??(1), and at the same time, the value of S=B/(B+D), which is defined by the bundle width (B) (mm) of the cord bundles 2 and the distance (D) (mm) between the cord bundles, satisfies the relationship represented by the following Formula (2): 0.60?S?0.80??(2).
