20100038001 | PNEUMATIC TIRE - The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire | 02-18-2010 |
20100180994 | PNEUMATIC TIRE - A pneumatic tire | 07-22-2010 |
20110041971 | PNEUMATIC TIRE - Provided is a pneumatic tire including at least a turbulent flow generation projection configured to generate a turbulent flow, the turbulent flow generation projection being arranged in a range from a maximum tire width position to an outside bead position, the maximum tire width position being a position on a tire surface with maximum tire width, and the outside bead position being a position on an outside of a bead portion in a tire radial direction, the bead portion configured to be in contact with a rim flange. The turbulent flow generation projection includes a radial projection extending along the tire radial direction, and a circumferential projection extending in an approximately circular arc shape along a tire circumferential direction. | 02-24-2011 |
20110073228 | SELF-PUMPING VENT HOLES FOR COOLING SOLID RUBBER TIRE AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION - A solid rubber tire with a multiplicity of self-pumping vent holes formed into opposed spaced apart sidewalls of the solid rubber tire. The self-pumping vent holes each extend from the side walls into the solid rubber tire about one-half the spaced apart distance and parallel to the rotation axis of the tire. Each of the multiplicity of self-pumping vent holes has a maximum cross-sectional dimension of between 0.5% and 1.5% of the maximum tire diameter. Any and all parts of the solid rubber material in the tire are at a distance of less than 12% of the original maximum diameter of the tire from any one of the multiplicity of self-pumping vent holes so that heat that may result in the solid rubber tire from its use is dissipated and temperature of the rubber in the tire is reduced by pumping of air into and out of the multiplicity of self-pumping vent holes upon rolling contact with the ground. | 03-31-2011 |
20110108174 | PNEUMATIC TIRE | 05-12-2011 |
20110308676 | PNEUMATIC TIRE - A pneumatic tire comprises a tread portion provided with an asymmetrical tread pattern comprising a pair of crown circumferential grooves defining a crown rib therebetween. The crown rib is provided with: a central narrow circumferential groove subdividing the crown rib into a crown-rib outside portion and a crown-rib inside portion; cooling slots extending from the crown circumferential grooves; and cooling holes. | 12-22-2011 |
20120067475 | VEHICLE - Disclosed is a vehicle equipped with air-filled tires, wherein heating of the air-filled tires during driving is minimized, and the durability of said tires is increased. Either many dimples are formed on the outside surface of at least one sidewall of the air-filled tires, or at least part of the outside surface of the sidewalls is formed using a good-thermal-conductivity rubber having a thermal conductivity of at least 0.40 W/(m·K). The vehicle is also provided with a cooling device that blows a gas that cools the air-filled tires from the outside. | 03-22-2012 |
20150007915 | Tire Cavity Air Flow Features - Provided is a pneumatic tire comprising an annular interior surface having a circumference, and an air flow feature. The annular interior surface is adapted for engagement with a wheel, defines an interior surface circumferential direction along the annular interior surface in the direction of the circumference, defines an interior surface meridinal direction tangent to the annular interior surface and perpendicular to the direction of the circumference, and defines an interior surface normal direction mutually perpendicular to both other directions. The air flow feature is engaged with the annular interior surface, adapted to direct a flow of inflation air into a non-circumferential direction, and comprises an air flow feature surface comprising a portion that extends in the interior surface normal direction and the interior surface meridinal direction, and either extends more than 2 millimeters in the interior surface normal direction, or extends in the interior surface circumferential direction. | 01-08-2015 |
20160082774 | TIRE WITH DIRECTIONAL HEAT CONDUCTIVE CONDUIT - This invention relates to a tire containing at least one directional heat conductive rubber element positioned to promote directional heat dissipation from the tire. | 03-24-2016 |
