Tire with electrically non-conductive tread which contains a self locking electrically conductive rubber strip extending through said tread to its running surface

摘要

This invention relates to a tire (1) having an electrically non-conductive tread (2) which contains an electrically conductive rubber strip (11-17) which extends through at least a portion of the tread to its running surface in a wave configured shape, and therefore not a continuous straight line within said tread, in which at least a portion of the rubber strip is in a shape of, for example, a substantially sinusoidal, cycloidal and/or zigzag form, to thereby provide a mechanical self-locking configuration between tread segments through which the rubber strip extends and divides. In particular, said tread is composed of a cap/base (2/3) configuration.
