APERFEICOAMENTO EM SUPORTE DE SEGURANCA PARA PNEUMATICO

摘要

A tire safety support for mounting on a wheel rim to support a pneumatic tire in a deflated condition including a ring member mounted on the wheel rim inside the tire. The ring member has a tread support portion spaced radially outward from the rim which is radially deflectable when a radial load is applied to a deflated tire. A deflection limiting member is mounted on a rim-engaging portion of the ring and extends radially outward to a supporting surface spaced a predetermined distance from the tread support portion of the ring member to limit deflection of the tread support portion upon deflation of the tire.
