Abstract: A chain to be used on vehicle wheels is provided to improve the tire grip in rugged ground and protect the tire against ground roughness. The chain is formed of special links. Each link has a U-shaped profile with a crossbar and lateral pillars. Top inner portion of each of the lateral pillars have a projection facing the central axis of the link which provides a male plug and defines a gap that provides a female cavity between the crossbar and the projection. A link at a position of 0° has a U-shaped flat profile. A link at a position of 180° has an inverted flat U-shaped profile.

Abstract: Configurations and installation methods for vehicle tire chains which provide tire chains especially easy to mount, and provide improvements in performance and vendor supply.

Abstract: A tire anti-skid apparatus has a plurality of non-metallic anti-skid members adapted to be arranged along a peripheral direction of a tire, the anti-skid members including: an anti-skid tread portion; and a plurality of connecting portions extending from the anti-skid tread portion in a direction perpendicular to the peripheral direction; and linking portions adapted to be disposed on a vehicle outside portion and a vehicle inside portion of the tire and linking the connecting portions of the anti-skid members, the linking portions including a linking member provided in the anti-skid member and linking the adjacent connecting portions of the anti-skid member which are situated in the tire peripheral direction. The linking member, the connecting portions and the anti-skid tread portion are formed integrally with one another. The linking member is formed expandable and compressible, and the connecting portion is formed deformable in the tire peripheral direction.

Abstract: The stay member for a tire chain has a base member including a base portion and a wear portion. The base member has a longitudinal center plane. The base member has at least one connecting opening for receiving connecting members of the tire chain. The base portion includes a tire contact surface opposite the wear portion. The wear portion projects at least partly laterally past the base portion and has a wear surface and lateral surfaces. The wear surface includes grooves extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal center plane. The lateral surfaces extend at such an angle to one another that ring members received in neighboring ones of the stay members are spaced from one another when the stay members touch one another.

Abstract: An elastic element useful for constructing shock-absorbing devices, is elongated and continuously curved into an endless double-loop formation including an outer loop merging with an inner loop located within and offset from the plane of the outer loop. Also described are a number of applications for such elastic elements, including a non-pneumatic vehicle tire having an outer elastomeric body, and a plurality of said elastic elements within the outer elastomeric body for cushioning the shock applied thereto.

Abstract: A net-like device which has plurality of crossed cords or straps that are attached to the outer surface of a vehicle tire. A suction cup is attached where the cords or straps cross each other in order to increase the traction of the vehicle tire.

Abstract: A chain net comprises a plurality of warp strands (1.1) with mutually equal links (1.2) which at intersections lock round links (1.5) of weft strands (1.4) having mutually equal links. The links of the warp strands have dimensions such that they first allow the insertion of weft strands and, after plastic or elastic deformation, lock links of the weft strands. The plastic deformation is provided by elongating the warp strands. The elastic deformation is provided by the warp strand links being first expanded to allow the insertion of weft strands, after which the warp links are elastically re-deformed for locking round weft links.

Abstract: In a tire chain, at least one junction point has a horizontal link having the form of a shackle with a main part and with outward-directed ends adjoining this. The hardness of the main part is greater than the hardness of the ends facing one another, these being joined to one another by means of a connecting part which is mushroom-shaped. The connecting part in turn has a hardened head and a hardened foot which are connected to one another via a soft shank.

Abstract: At the nodal points of the chain net in a tire chain, components (1) are provided which have at least one T-shaped section, the transverse bar (3,4) of which forms holding arms (5) for chain links (6) to be hung in; in these components, the ends, forming locking pins (9), of a closure element (8) mounted in a bore (7) in the middle of the longitudinal bar of the T-shaped section serve to secure the chain links (6) hung into the hook-shaped holding arms (5) (FIG. 1).

Abstract: A tire protector device with a covering, especially formed by plates, which exhibits at its ends next to the outside of the tire connector parts for fastening a chain net which covers the side wall of the tire. The edge of said chain net remote from the connector parts being connected to a holding strand via connection parts which are formed of tension devices which have at least one tension spring forming a store of tensional force and/or which exhibits each a connector member carried movably on the holding strand.

Abstract: A vehicle traction device for passenger cars and alike including a flexible belt-like traction mat with transverse corrugations on one side and substantially smooth on the other side. One end of the mat is pivotally secured to anchoring means including a flexible anchoring pad and ground gripping element.In use, the traction mat is first arranged to form a loop relative to the anchoring means. With its corrugations facing a tire and its smooth side facing the ground the traction mat will easily be drawn under a spinning wheel until that end of it, which is secured to the anchoring means becomes choked by the anchoring means. The tractive effort then developed causes the anchoring means to become wedged and thus assuring its fixed position, whereby the traction mat is prevented from being propelled away by the driven wheel.

Abstract: An annular meshwork to cover the tread and part of the sidewalls of a tire includes a plurality of flexible, nonstretchable strands extending around the tire, each strand being connected to adjacent strands at spaced apart points to form an annular meshwork or network to improve traction and steering. The sides of the meshwork are defined by end rings, at least one of which is extensible, e.g., elastic, to allow mounting on the tire. The strands adjacent the end rings are fixedly attached to the end rings. The meshes are formed by the strands with a significantly longer dimension in the circular direction of the annular meshwork than in the transverse direction. The connections can be made using clamping devices of which specific embodiments are disclosed. The clamping devices can be provided with a protective layer on the tread-facing (inner) side. The outer side can be provided with projections in the nature of short spikes to enhance traction.
