Abstract

Abstract A tire body of elastomeric material, terminating in two beads on opposite sides of its cavity, has a sole free of reinforcing cords carrying a tread on its outer surface and a belt of elastomeric material disposed either between the tread and the body or on the inner body surface. The belt has a stress/strain ratio at 20° C and with 50% elongation which is at least 30% higher than the corresponding stress/strain ratio of the tire body.

A pneumatic vehicular tire comprising: a toroidal body of a first elastomeric material with sidewalls integrally interconnected by a sole carrying a tread, said sidewalls terminating in a pair of beads, said body being provided with reinforcing cords only in said beads; and a substantially cylindrically curved belt of a second elastomeric material extending along the periphery of said body inwardly of said tread;
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 64 words
A pneumatic vehicular tire comprising: a toroidal body of a first elastomeric material with sidewalls integrally interconnected by a sole carrying a tread, said sidewalls terminating in a pair of beads, said body being provided with reinforcing cords only in said beads; and a substantially cylindrically curved belt of a second elastomeric material extending along the periphery of said body inwardly of said tread;
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 64 words
1 said second elastomeric material having a stress/strain ratio, at 20° C and with 50% elongation, exceeding the corresponding stress/strain ratio of said first elastomeric material by at least 30%; said stress/strain ratio of said first elastomeric material ranging between substantially 30 and 135 kg/cm 2 , said stress/strain ratio of said second elastomeric material ranging between substantially 120 and 400 kg/cm 2 .
Claim 4
