Title:
SUPPORT BODIES FOR IN-TIRE DEVICES, TIRE, AND TIRE ASSEMBLY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/093255
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Support bodies which, in the hollow space within a tire, stably hold for a long period of time a system, etc. for reducing the noise of the tire are configured so that the support bodies can be mass-produced, are simple, and are low cost.
A tire (01) is mounted to a wheel (02). The black-filled portions in the figure represent support bodies of a first invention, adapted to support in-tire devices. The support bodies (03) for in-tire devices are affixed by being sandwiched between the bead sections (04) of the tire and the rim (05) of the wheel. A portion sandwiched between the rim and each of the bead sections is called a sandwiched section. Among portions of each of the support bodies for in-tire devices, a portion which is connected to or is formed integrally with the sandwiched section and which protrudes to the inner side of the tire is called a device support section. A quiet system (06) for reducing the noise of the tire is affixed to the device support sections. Thus, the support bodies for in-tire devices enable the devices, such as tire quiet system, etc., to be stably supported in the hollow space within the tire.
