5results about "Aircraft tyres" patented technology

The present disclosure provides an inflation system for inflating inflatable objects, such as aircraft tires. The inflation system includes a flow sensor arranged to sense a flow rate of pressurized air supplied to an inflatable object by way of a supply path. The inflation system also includes a computing system. The computing system is configured to inflate, using feedback from the flow sensor, the inflatable object with a learned volume of pressurized air specific to the inflatable object.

The present disclosure provides an inflation system (100) for inflating an inflatable object, such as an aircraft tire (104). The inflation system (100) includes a flow sensor (118) arranged to sense a flow of pressurized air supplied to the inflatable object through a supply path (112). The inflation system (100) also includes a computing system (130). The computing system (130) is configured to use feedback from the flow sensor (118) to inflate the inflatable object with an acquired volume (148) of pressurized air specific to the inflatable object.

A tire management apparatus (10) includes a remaining tread amount acquisition unit (12) configured to acquire a remaining tread amount of tires, a traveling information acquisition unit (13) configured to acquire traveling information of moving objects to which the tires are attached, a replacement time calculation unit (14) configured to calculate a replacement time of the tires in accordance with the remaining tread amount and the traveling information, and a notification unit (15) configured to notify a particular notification target of information on the number of the tires to be replaced at the replacement time when the number exceeds a threshold.

A pneumatic tire (8) is disclosed comprising a tread (12), a carcass (30) positioned radially inward of the tread (12) and comprising a carcass ply (34a) having a first concave portion, and a belt structure (40) positioned radially inward of the tread (12) and radially outward of the carcass (30) and comprising a belt ply (44a) having a second concave portion. A radial distance (d1) is constant or substantially constant between the carcass ply (34a) and the belt ply (44a), including the first and second concave portions, respectively.
