Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tires, in particular to a tire with a multi-layer continuously woven carcass cord layer structure. Background Art
[0002] Traditional radial tires have a single carcass ply structure, providing good lateral flexibility but limited resistance to impact and high loads, making them susceptible to damage or even failure in harsh road conditions. Tires with multiple carcass ply structures offer increased stiffness and impact resistance, extending their service life in harsh road conditions. These tires are used in applications such as aviation and off-highway tires.
[0003] The carcass ply of a traditional tire is made of cord and rubber through calendering, cutting and splicing. A series of cutting points will be generated at the cutting point of the ply (such as Figure 1 This results in interfacial bonding defects in the carcass breakpoint area. During tire use, the cord breakpoint area experiences intense shearing with the rubber, leading to holes and cracks in this area early in life, significantly reducing the tire's service life. The cord discontinuity in this area severely limits the tire's load-bearing capacity.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a tire with a multi-layer continuously woven carcass cord layer structure has become a technical problem that those skilled in the art urgently need to solve. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the defects brought about by the existing carcass cord layer manufacturing process and improve the high-speed performance, impact resistance and load capacity of the tire, the present invention proposes a tire with a multi-layer continuously woven carcass cord layer structure. The tire has multiple layers of continuously woven carcass cord layers, which can suppress the standing wave phenomenon formed by the tire under high-load and high-speed conditions, thereby improving the high-speed performance, impact resistance and load capacity of the tire and significantly increasing the service life of the tire.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a tire having a multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure, comprising a bead ring structure, an apex rubber layer, and a multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure, wherein the bead ring structure and the apex rubber layer are both disposed within the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure, and the apex rubber layer is coated on the outside of the bead ring structure;
[0007] The multi-layer continuous woven carcass ply structure includes n layers of continuously woven carcass ply units, the first layer of continuously woven carcass ply unit is located at the center of the multi-layer continuous woven carcass ply structure, the second layer of continuously woven carcass ply unit is wound and bonded to the first layer of continuously woven carcass ply unit with an adhesive layer attached thereto, and so on, each layer of continuously woven carcass ply units is bonded in sequence, wherein the first layer of continuously woven carcass ply unit is a single-layer continuously woven carcass ply, and the second to n-layer continuously woven carcass ply units are inner and outer double-layer continuously woven carcass ply, ultimately forming a multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure with 2n-1 layers of continuously woven carcass ply in the radial direction of the tire.
[0008] It also includes a shoulder rubber pad layer, a sidewall rubber layer and a bead rubber protection layer. The inner side of the multi-layer continuous woven carcass cord layer structure is provided with an airtight layer, and the outer side of the multi-layer continuous woven carcass cord layer structure is provided with a multi-layer belt cord layer structure; the shoulder rubber pad layer, the sidewall rubber layer and the bead rubber protection layer are all bonded to the multi-layer continuous woven carcass cord layer structure, and the multi-layer belt cord layer structure is attached with a tread lower layer, a tread upper layer and a cap layer.
[0009] Furthermore, the first layer of continuously woven carcass cord layer unit is a first layer of carcass cord tube formed by continuously and evenly covering and zigzagging the cords on the apex rubber layer and the wire ring structure after being coated with rubber.
[0010] Furthermore, the 2nd to nth layer of continuously woven carcass cord layer units are formed by continuously and evenly winding in a zigzag shape with a certain tension and angle on the outer surface of the first layer of continuously woven carcass cord layer with an adhesive layer after the cords are coated with rubber, and no spacing is retained between each section of the cords. At the same time, an extrusion roller is used to calender each layer of cords to form the 2nd to nth layer of carcass cord tubes.
[0011] Furthermore, the angle between the arrangement direction of a single cord of a single-layer continuously woven carcass ply in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure and the tire axial direction is 0.1° to 3° or -0.1° to -3°.
[0012] Furthermore, the inner and outer double-layer continuous woven carcass cord layers in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass cord layer structure have inner and outer cord arrangement angles that are parallel or symmetrical to the outer angles, the dividing point between the inner and outer sides is located at the bottom center of the wire ring, and the angle between the single cord arrangement direction and the tire axial direction is 0.1° to 3° or -0.1° to -3°.
[0013] Furthermore, after the rubber-coated cords in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure are arranged in a continuous zigzag pattern, the starting point and the end point are connected by butt-jointing or overlapping.
[0014] Furthermore, the positions of the connection points generated by the continuous zigzag arrangement of the rubber-coated cords in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure are determined by a finite element method or a tension calculation formula;
[0015] The stress distribution of a tire with a multi-layer continuous woven carcass ply structure under inflation and load conditions is calculated using the finite element method, and the position where the cord tension is minimum is selected as the location of the cord connection point.
[0016] Furthermore, the thickness of the zigzag-shaped rubber-coated cords in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure is 0.5-2 times the cord diameter D.
[0017] Furthermore, the multi-layer continuously woven carcass cord layer structure adopts a single rubber-coated cord or a cord tape composed of multiple rubber-coated cords, which is continuously and evenly arranged in a zigzag shape on the apex rubber layer and the wire ring structure to form a carcass cord tube.
[0018] Furthermore, the cords in the cord tape composed of the plurality of rubber-coated cords are evenly distributed, and the number of the cords is 2 to 8; the width of the rubber-coated cord tape is 1 to 20 mm.
[0019] Furthermore, the cords used in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure are steel wire, nylon, aramid, a blend of nylon and aramid, polyester or carbon fiber material.
[0020] Furthermore, the continuously woven carcass ply units are bonded together;
[0021] Alternatively, the cords are connected by an adhesive layer, wherein the thickness H of the adhesive layer is greater than the diameter D of the cords.
[0022] Furthermore, the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure is made by arranging a single cord or cord tape;
[0023] Alternatively, each layer of the continuously woven carcass ply is arranged in a zigzag pattern, and the starting points of the continuously woven carcass ply units of each layer are evenly distributed within a 360° angle.
[0024] Furthermore, the number of layers of the continuously woven carcass ply units in the multi-layer continuously woven carcass ply structure is 2 to 10.
[0025] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0026] The present invention discloses a tire having a multi-layer continuous woven carcass cord ply structure. This structure eliminates the continuous cut points produced by conventional carcass cord ply manufacturing processes such as calendering, cutting, and splicing. This eliminates the inability to effectively bond with the rubber due to the lack of a coating at the cut points. This prevents damage such as holes and cracks at the cut points during tire operation, and cord pullout when the tire is subjected to impact loads. This improves the tire's load-bearing capacity and service life. This not only enhances the tire's stiffness and impact resistance, but also suppresses standing waves generated during high-speed rotation, thereby increasing the tire's service life during high-speed operation.
[0027] The present invention proposes a tire with a multi-layer continuously woven carcass cord layer structure, which can be composed of a single cord coated with rubber, or a cord belt composed of multiple cords coated with rubber, which is continuously woven and continuously and evenly arranged on the apex rubber layer and the steel bead structure to form a carcass cord tube, thereby establishing a stable and continuous force transmission structure, strengthening the force transmission between the carcass and the steel bead structure, improving the stiffness of the cord layer, reducing the weight of the tire, and improving the manufacturing efficiency of the carcass cord layer.
