Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/038629
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A tire noise reduction device capable of improving vibration of a tire with durability
of the tire secured and noise of the tire further reduced, and a pneumatic tire.
The tire noise reduction device (1) has two main sound absorbing materials (3)
for changing, in the circumferential direction of the tire, the cross-sectional
area of the tire cavity (15) and also has two auxiliary sound absorbing materials
(4) disposed between the main sound absorbing materials (3). The sound absorbing
materials (3, 4) are formed of a porous material. Each main sound absorbing material
(3) has a first sound absorbing part (3A) positioned on the tread inner surface
(11a) side and also has a second sound absorbing part (3B) positioned on the side
away from the tread inner surface (1a).The second sound absorbing part (3B) has
lower density than the first sound absorbing part (3A). The auxiliary sound
absorbing material (4) has higher density than the second sound absorbing part
(3B) and less thickness than the main sound absorbing material (3).
