The invention relates to a pneumatic rubber tire having an outer, circumferential tread wherein said tread has a tread configuration comprised of significantly spaced apart, raised lugs designed to be shock absorbingly ground engaging. For such tire, it is intended that, in the field, normally few tread lugs actually engage the ground at any one time in a manner that individual lugs have a relatively significant shock absorbing responsibility. Said tread and associated tread lugs are comprised of a shock dampening closed cellular rubber composition. The rubber for such cellular rubber composition for said tread of spaced apart lugs is comprised of conjugated diene-based elastomers or comprised of elastomers selected from butyl rubber, halogenated butyl rubber or brominated copolymer of isobutylene and paramethylstyrene rubber. Said butyl rubber is a copolymer of isobutylene and a minor amount of a diene monomer such as isoprene. Preferably the rubber for the cellular tread rubber composition is an isobutylene copolymer. Thus, such tread is a combination of structural configuration of spaced apart lugs together with a closed cellular rubber composition of selected elastomer(s) to create a shock absorbing effect for the tire tread lugs.

A combination air supply system for a work vehicle, includes a work vehicle compressor configured to be mounted on the work vehicle, wherein the work vehicle compressor is configured to compress a first supply of ambient air and to output a first compressed air supply via a compressed air line, wherein the compressed air line is configured to receive a second compressed air supply from an implement compressor via a compressed air connection line, wherein the implement compressor is configured to be mounted on an implement towed by the work vehicle, wherein the compressed air connection line is configured to couple the implement compressor to the compressed air line via a coupler, and a tire inflation system fluidly coupled to the compressed air line and configured to selectively increase and decrease an air pressure within a tire of the work vehicle, wherein the tire inflation system is configured to distribute the first compressed air supply, the second compressed air supply, and a combination air supply of the first and second compressed air supplies to the tire.

This invention relates to off-road tires, more specifically off-road tires for use with all-terrain vehicles, agricultural equipment, and construction equipment. A plurality of elongated pads are interposed between circumferentially adjacent lugs, preventing damage to the tire's inner tread without impeding the soil shedding characteristics of the tire's soil discharge channels. The width of the puncture prevention pads may vary to compensate for the greater spacing between circumferentially adjacent lugs at the shoulder region of the tire.

A pneumatic tire has an axis of rotation. The pneumatic tire includes a carcass having at least one reinforced ply, a tread disposed radially outward of the carcass, and a belt structure disposed radially between the carcass and the tread.

An air supply system on a vehicle having a tire. The system includes a compressor having a supply mode for supplying air to a consumer connected to the compressor. The consumer is provided with a reservoir and the compressor switches to an idle mode when the pressure of the reservoir attains a first predetermined reservoir pressure.
