METHOD OF DETERMINING POTENTIAL CAUSE OF TIRE FAILURE BY MEASURING THE TIRE TEMPERATURE ACHIEVED DURING OPERATING CONDITIONS
摘要
<p>The invention provides a tire and a method for analyzing the temperature exposure to the tire (2). The tire and the method allow an investigator to determine the maximum temperature the tire experienced during its operation. This information offers a potential cause for the tire failure by allowing the investigator to determine a maximum temperature experienced by an area of the tire by reviewing a non-reversible, temperature-indicating label positioned at a location in the tire. The information may be used to identify a potential cause of a tire failure after the failure has occurred. The information may also be used to identify a damaged tire before the tire fails.</p>
