Abstract
A cable bead comprising an annular core and a side wire spirally wrapped up around the annular core, wherein the annular core is made up of a round steel wire made to circle once or made, without being stranded, to circle 2 to 10 times side by side, and wherein the side wire is a round steel wire consecutive from the annular core. This provides a high-strength cable bead that can press a tire main body against a wheel without fail even if a tire is charged with a high load.
Claims7
A cable bead comprising:
- an annular core;
- and
- a first side wire spirally wrapped up around the annular core,
- wherein the annular core is formed of a round steel wire made to circle once or made, without being stranded, to circle 2 to 10 times side by side,
- the round steel wire, which forms the first side wire, continuously extends from the annular core without cutting the round steel wire that forms the annular core, and
- the cable bead satisfies 0≤(Do−Di)/Wm≤√3/2, where:
- Di (mm) is a cable bead inner radius at an inner side, along a tire width direction, of the cable bead;
- Do is a cable bead outer radius at an outer side, along the tire width direction, of the cable bead;
- and
- Wm is a maximum width of a cross section of the cable bead.
