Bead structure for a pneumatic tire

摘要

A pneumatic tire includes a carcass ply extending from one bead structure to another bead structure. Each bead structure includes a plurality of circumferentially wound metal wires defining a cross-sectional profile of a bead. The profile has a radial height to axial width ratio greater than 1.0 and a bead orientation angle between 30 degrees and 60 degrees.
