Abstract
A tire includes: a pair of beads having bead cores and a bead filler extending to an outer side in a tire-radial direction of the bead core; a carcass ply extending from one of the bead core of one bead to the bead core of the other bead, and folded back around each of the bead cores; a first pad disposed at an outer side in a tire-width direction of a folding end of the carcass ply which is folded back; a second pad disposed at an outer side in the tire-width direction of the first pad; and rim strip rubber disposed at least at a part on an outer side in the tire-width direction of the second pad, in which an electronic component is provided to interpose the second pad and the rim strip rubber.
Claims15
A tire comprising:
- a pair of beads each having annular bead cores and a bead filler extending to an outer side in a tire-radial direction of the bead core;
- a carcass ply extending from one of the bead cores to another of the bead cores, and folded back around each of the bead cores;
- a first pad disposed at an outer side in a tire-width direction of a folding end of the carcass ply;
- a second pad disposed at an outer side in the tire-width direction of the first pad;
- and
- a rim strip rubber disposed at least at a part on an outer side in the tire-width direction of the second pad,
- wherein:
- a steel chafer is provided so as to cover at least part of the carcass ply, and the rim strip rubber is provided at an inner side in the tire-radial direction of the steel chafer;
- an electronic component is provided to interpose the second pad and the rim strip rubber;
- the electronic component is disposed at a position distanced at least 5 mm from the folding end of the carcass ply;
- in the tire-radial direction, the entire electronic component is disposed inside a tire-radial direction outside end of the bead filler and outside the folding end of the carcass ply;
- a tire-radial direction inside end of the first pad is located between the carcass ply and the steel chafer, closer to an inner side in the tire-radial direction than a tire-radial direction outer surface of the bead core;
- a tire-radial direction outside end of the first pad is located closer to an outer side in the tire-radial direction than a tire-radial direction outside end of the rim strip rubber;
- and
- a tire-radial direction inside end of the second pad is located closer to an inner side in the tire-radial direction than a tire-radial direction inside end of the first pad.
A tire comprising:
- a pair of beads each having annular bead cores and a bead filler extending to an outer side in a tire-radial direction of the bead core;
- a carcass ply extending from one of the bead cores to another of the bead cores, and folded back around each of the bead cores;
- a first pad disposed at an outer side in a tire-width direction of a folding end of the carcass ply;
- a second pad disposed at an outer side in the tire-width direction of the first pad;
- a rim strip rubber disposed at least at a part on an outer side in the tire-width direction of the second pad, and
- a steel chafer is provided so as to cover at least part of the carcass ply, and the rim strip rubber is provided at an inner side in the tire-radial direction of the steel chafer;
- a side-wall rubber located at an outer side in the tire-width direction of at least part of the rim strip rubber and the second pad,
- wherein an electronic component is provided to interpose the second pad and the rim strip rubber;
- the electronic component is disposed at a position distanced at least 5 mm from the folding end of the carcass ply and inward of the folding end of the carcass ply in the tire-radial direction,
- a tire-radial direction inside end of the first pad is located between the carcass ply and the steel chafer, closer to an inner side in the tire-radial direction than a tire-radial direction outer surface of the bead core;
- a tire-radial direction outside end of the first pad is located closer to an outer side in the tire-radial direction than a tire-radial direction outside end of the rim strip rubber;
- a tire-radial direction inside end of the second pad is located closer to an inner side in the tire-radial direction than a tire-radial direction inside end of the first pad, and
- a tire-width direction inner surface of the electronic component is disposed, in order, proximate the second pad, first pad, and carcass ply toward an inner side in the tire-width direction.
