Non-pneumatic tire and wheel assembly and a fabrication method

摘要

A non-pneumatic tire and wheel assembly incorporates a tire tread (22) and a conventional vehicle wheel (26) with an elastomer tire body (10) element molded for engagement intermediate the tread and wheel. The tire body element includes multiple concentric layers (12,14) with alternating spokes (16). A bonded multilayer cover (52) may be employed which is received within a recess in an outer surface of the tire body element from the tire tread. A mounting plate (50) is engaged to the cover and attached to the wheel.
