AI Technical Summary
Heavy duty tires with integrated RFID tags face challenges in creating a good communication environment while minimizing the risk of damage to the RFID tag, especially due to the presence of metal components like steel cords and the bending stresses in the tire design.
The heavy duty tire design includes a tag member with an RFID tag positioned in contact with the sidewall and outer apex of the tire, radially outward of the midpoint of the recess on the tire side surface. This placement reduces the influence of bending stresses and keeps the RFID tag away from metal components, enhancing communication efficiency and reducing damage risk.
This design achieves a good communication environment for the RFID tag and reduces the risk of damage while also contributing to mass reduction through the strategic placement of the RFID tag and the incorporation of a recess in the tire side surface.
