PNEUMATIC TYRES FOR MOTOR VEHICLES

摘要

A pneumatic tire is disclosed having a top belt under the tread, which belt comprises two superimposed plies made of cables having a high modulus of elasticity. The upper ply is narrower than the lower ply. Lateral strips, which are co-extensive with the circumferential length of the plies, are joined to each of the edges of the two plies. Each lateral strip is co-extensive with the ply to which it is joined and constitutes a layer of flexible circumferentially extending cables embedded in rubber and is joined end-to-end on a bias whose angle is the same as that of the respective plies to which they are joined.
