A tire comprises a sealing layer comprising a junction () extending in a main direction (D) forming, with the circumferential direction (Z) of the tire: in a portion (S) of the sealing layer extending axially in radial line with the working layer, an angle (ES) ranging, in absolute value, from 20° to 60°, and in a portion (F) of the sealing layer extending radially in each sidewall, an angle (EF), in absolute value, strictly greater than the angle (ES) of the main direction (D) of the junction () in the portion (S) of the sealing layer extending axially in radial line with the working layer.

Low-noise tire and method for manufacturing same

A method for marking a tire having a tread and two sidewalls delimiting the tread, by inflating the tire mounted on a rim, and when in the inflated state, making, on at least one of the sidewalls, at least one marking which is at least partially colored, wherein during the inflation, the tire is inflated to a pressure greater than the nominal inflation pressure of the tire.

Method for marking a tire, in particular by color printing

Tire () comprising a tread (), the tire comprising at least one groove (), at least one wear indicator () disposed in the groove (), the wear indicator comprising a contact face () intended to come into contact with a roadway when the tire reaches a wear limit, the groove () comprising a texture () produced integrally with a bottom () of this groove (), said texture () surrounding the wear indicator () and contrasting with the contact face () of the wear indicator.

Tire comprising a textured tread

A method for processing inflation defects of a tyre of a vehicle is disclosed, the tyre being equipped with sensors for measuring the pressure and the temperature of the internal cavity of said tyre. The pressure and the temperature of the internal cavity of the tyre are measured periodically and, as soon as an inflation defect of a tyre is detected, an alert is signalled to the driver of the vehicle, in which there is also transmitted to the driver of the vehicle a maximum speed setpoint: which, when the measured inflation pressure of the tyre is greater than or equal to a first inflation pressure threshold value p, is a first maximum speed setpoint value V; and which, when the measured inflation pressure of the tyre is less than said first pressure threshold value pand greater than or equal to a second pressure threshold value p, decreases as a function of said measured inflation pressure of the tyre.

Method for exploiting pressure and temperature measurements of a vehicle tire

A tire made of rubbery material comprises tread () and two sidewalls () delimiting the tread, at least one of the sidewalls comprising at least one texture () that contrasts with the rest of the sidewall. The texture is divided into a plurality of adjacent patterns () of identical external shape. All or some of the patterns comprise a plurality of texture elements arranged to form in the pattern a plurality of rows that extend in the same direction of extension. For a given pattern of the texture, the rows of texture elements in each pattern adjacent to the given pattern have a direction of extension different from the direction of extension of the rows of texture elements of the given pattern. The lightness of the rest of the sidewall, which is not textured, is at least 5 units greater than the lightnesses of the patterns of the texture.

Tire provided with a texture on a sidewall

Tire () having sidewalls (), a substantially electrically insulating crown block () and a substantially insulating tread (), the tire () also having at least one conductive peg () that is oriented in the radial direction and positioned under the tread () of the tire so as to create an electrically conductive path between the ground and a rim on which the tire is able to be mounted.

Tire comprising a conductive cord

A tire suitable for running flat comprises a crown, two sidewalls and two beads, a carcass reinforcement with at least one carcass ply anchored in each bead and a sidewall insert placed axially internally relative to at least the carcass ply, wherein the tire is equipped with an electronic device comprising at least one radiofrequency transponder and wherein, each bead comprising a bead wire of revolution about a reference axis and H being one of the points of the bead wire closest to the axis of revolution, the electronic device is placed axially in a zone of the tire bounded by at least one of the beads and one of the sidewalls and radially externally at a radial distance larger than 20 mm from the point H.

Tire suitable for running flat equipped with an electronic member

A mounting wheel () for a motor vehicle comprising an internal surface () and an external surface (), the internal surface () not being visible when the mounting wheel () is mounted on the motor vehicle, and at least one fixing element () configured to attach the mounting wheel () to the motor vehicle. The fixing element () is arranged on the internal surface () of the mounting wheel () so that the fixing element () is not visible when the mounting wheel () is mounted on the motor vehicle.

Mounting wheel for motor vehicle and mounted assembly comprising such a mounting wheel

A method of detecting a leak from a tire of a vehicle, the tire including a member for measuring the pressure and the temperature having a driving operating mode and a stationary operating mode, comprising determining that the vehicle is stationary; and then launching the stationary operating mode to detect when the vehicle is stationary the presence or the absence of a leak of inflating gas from the tire.

Method for detecting a leak in a tire of a stationary vehicle

A tire comprising a tread, this tread comprising at least one channel and at least one wear indicator that is disposed on the bottom of the channel. The wear indicator has a contact face which is intended to come into contact with a road surface when the tire reaches a wear limit. The contact face has a texture that contrasts with the bottom of the channel.

A tire () comprising a tread (), this tread comprising at least one channel (), at least one wear indicator () disposed on the bottom of the channel (), the wear indicator comprising a contact face () intended to come into contact with a road surface when the tire reaches a wear limit, the channel () comprising a texture () surrounding the wear indicator () and contrasting with the contact face () of the wear indicator.

A tire made of rubber material includes a sidewall and a marking protruding from this sidewall. The tire has a texture, which has a plurality of strands protruding from the sidewall, these strands being distributed at a density at least equal to five strands per square millimeter (mm), each strand having a mean cross section between 0.0007 mmand 0.06 mmand/or the texture having a plurality of substantially mutually parallel lamellae protruding from the sidewall, the spacing of the lamellae being less than or equal to 0.5 mm, each lamella having a mean width between 0.03 mm and 0.3 mm.
