[0009] [1] Characteristics of the tire according to the present invention First, the features of the tire according to the present invention will be described.

[0010] 1. Overview The tire according to the present invention is a tire including a tread portion, a bead portion including a bead apex and a bead core, and a carcass layer, and an electronic component is provided between the bead apex and the carcass layer. The complex modulus of elasticity of the bead apex measured under the conditions of a temperature of 70°C, a frequency of 10Hz, an initial strain of 5%, and a dynamic strain rate of 1%, in a deformation mode of tension, is 70°C E * The BA (MPa) is more than 30 MPa, and further, the loss tangent of the clinch 70°C tan δCA measured under the conditions of a temperature of 70°C, a frequency of 10 Hz, an initial strain of 5%, and a dynamic strain rate of 1%, in a deformation mode of tension, and the length L (mm) of the electronic component in the tire circumferential direction satisfy the following (Formula 1). 70℃tanδCA×L<12 (Formula 1)

[0011] These characteristics can improve the durability of a tire equipped with electronic components while the tire is in motion, as described below.

[0012] 2. Mechanism of effect manifestation in the tire according to the present invention The mechanism by which the above-mentioned effects are exhibited in the tire according to the present invention is believed to be as follows.

[0013] As described above, in the tire according to the present invention, the electronic component is provided between the bead apex and the carcass layer.

[0014] The carcass layer is a tire component that forms the tire's framework and has a much higher elastic modulus than other tire components. Since the carcass layer that forms the tire's framework is the center of tire deformation, it is considered that the amount of deformation near the carcass layer during running is smaller than that of the surrounding area.

[0015] On the other hand, since the bead portion consisting of the bead apex and the bead core is fixed to the rim, it is considered that the deformation amount of the bead apex connected to the bead core fixed to the rim during running is small.

[0016] For this reason, if an electronic component is provided between the bead apex and the carcass layer, the amount of deformation around the electronic component during running can be reduced, suppressing the occurrence of peeling of the electronic component within the tire. As a result, it is believed that damage to the tire can be suppressed and the durability of a tire with electronic components attached during running can be improved.

[0017] As described above, the amount of deformation of the bead apex during running is thought to be small, but it still deforms along with the carcass layer while the tire is rolling, which generates heat.

[0018] If the bead apex generates too much heat, it may deform and heat up significantly, which may cause the electronic components to peel off from inside the tire. For this reason, it is considered necessary to increase the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex.

[0019] That is, the complex modulus of elasticity is a parameter that indicates the rigidity of the rubber layer, and it is believed that by increasing the complex modulus of elasticity (rigidity), deformation and heat generation of the bead apex can be suppressed.

[0020] Specifically, the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex measured under the conditions of temperature 70°C, frequency 10Hz, initial strain 5%, dynamic strain rate 1%, and deformation mode: tension. * If BA (MPa) exceeds 30 MPa, it is considered that deformation and heat generation of the bead apex can be sufficiently suppressed, peeling of the electronic components inside the tire can be suppressed, and the durability of the tire equipped with electronic components during running can be improved.

[0021] In addition, the clinch located on the outer side of the bead apex in the tire width direction is likely to transmit heat generated by rubbing against the rim during rolling to the inside of the tire. For this reason, it is considered necessary to appropriately control the relationship between the loss tangent of the clinch and the tire circumferential length of the electronic component.

[0022] That is, the loss tangent tanδ is a viscoelastic parameter that indicates the energy absorption performance, and the larger the value, the more energy is absorbed, the more heat is generated, and the more deformation occurs. On the other hand, the smaller the length of the electronic component in the tire circumferential direction, the easier it is to release heat, and the more heat generation can be suppressed.

[0023] For this reason, if the product of the loss tangent of the clinch and the length of the electronic component in the tire circumferential direction can be controlled to a certain value or less, it is possible to appropriately suppress heat generation in the area where the electronic components are in contact, sufficiently prevent the occurrence of peeling of the electronic components, and improve the durability of the electronic components attached to the tire when it is in motion.

[0024] Specifically, if the product (70°C tan δCA x L) of the loss tangent of the clinch (70°C tan δCA) measured in a deformation mode of tension under conditions of a temperature of 70°C, a frequency of 10 Hz, an initial strain of 5%, and a dynamic strain rate of 1%, and the product of the loss tangent of the clinch (70°C tan δCA) and the tire circumferential length L (mm) of the electronic component is less than 12, it is believed that heat generation and deformation of the clinch can be appropriately suppressed, peeling of the electronic component can be sufficiently prevented, and the durability of the tire to which the electronic component is attached during running can be improved. A value of 8 or less is more preferable.

[0025] As described above, in the tire according to the present invention, electronic components are provided between the bead apex and the carcass layer, the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex is increased, and the product of the loss tangent of the clinch and the tire circumferential length of the electronic components is controlled to a certain value or less, thereby reducing the amount of deformation around the electronic components during running and suppressing peeling and damage to the electronic components within the tire. Therefore, it is believed that the durability of a tire equipped with electronic components during running can be improved.

[0026] In the above, the complex elastic modulus and the loss tangent (tan δ) can be measured using a viscoelasticity measuring device such as "IPLEXER (registered trademark)" manufactured by GABO.

[0027] [2] More preferred embodiments of the tire according to the present invention The tire according to the present invention can achieve even greater effects by adopting the following aspects.

[0028] 1. Radial distance from the top of the bead core to the electronic component As the tire radial distance D2 from the upper end of the bead core to the electronic component increases, the bead apex becomes more likely to deform and generate heat. Therefore, it is preferable to increase the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex relative to the tire radial distance from the upper end of the bead core to the electronic component.

[0029] Specifically, the 70°C E for the tire radial distance D2 (mm) from the top end of the bead core to the electronic component * BA ratio (70℃E * If BA / D2) exceeds 0.85, it is considered that deformation and heat generation of the bead apex can be sufficiently suppressed, and the durability of the tire equipped with electronic components during driving can be further improved.

[0030] In this case, the larger D2 is, the smaller 70°C tan δBA can be made to suppress heat generation in the bead apex. By controlling the product of 70°C tan δBA and the tire radial distance D2 (mm) from the upper end of the bead core to the electronic component to be equal to or less than a predetermined value, it is believed that heat generation can be suppressed and the durability of the tire equipped with electronic components during running can be further improved.

[0031] Specifically, when the product of 70°C tan δBA and the tire radial distance D2 (mm) from the upper end of the bead core to the electronic component is 8.5 or less, it is believed that heat generation can be appropriately suppressed and the durability of the tire equipped with the electronic component during running can be further improved.

[0032] The height of the bead apex, i.e., the ratio (D2 / H) of D2 (mm) to the distance H (mm) from the upper end of the bead core to the tip top of the bead apex, is preferably greater than 0.2 and less than 0.8. By arranging the electronic components in such a position, heat generation can be appropriately suppressed and peeling can be suppressed.

[0033] In the above description, the "upper end of the bead core" refers to the outer edge of the bead core in the tire radial direction.

[0034] 2. Loss tangent of the tread In the present invention, the loss tangent 30°C tan δTR of the tread portion measured in the deformation mode: tension under the conditions of a temperature of 30°C, a frequency of 10 Hz, an initial strain of 5%, and a dynamic strain rate of 1%, is preferably less than 0.25. In this way, by setting 30°C tan δTR to a small value, the amount of heat generated in the tread portion during running can be reduced and the temperature rise of the entire tire can be suppressed, which is considered to further improve the durability of a tire equipped with electronic components during running.

[0035] In this case, it is more preferable that the loss tangent 0°C tan δTR of the tread portion measured in the deformation mode: tension under the conditions of a temperature of 0°C, a frequency of 10 Hz, an initial strain of 5%, and a dynamic strain rate of 1%, exceeds 0.50. In this way, by increasing the loss tangent tan δ at low temperatures, it is possible to suppress vibrations caused by the influence of the road surface during driving at the surface of the tread portion, and therefore it is believed that it is possible to sufficiently suppress deformation of the bead portion caused by vibrations at the surface of the tread portion, and further improve the durability of the tire equipped with electronic components during driving.

[0036] The "tread portion" refers to the component of the area that forms the contact surface of the tire, and refers to the portion radially outward of the components that contain fiber materials, such as the carcass, belt layer, and belt reinforcing layer. The tread portion may be formed of only one layer of cap rubber, or may be formed of two layers by providing a base rubber layer inside the cap rubber layer, or may be formed of three layers, or may be formed of four or more layers. In this case, the thickness of the cap rubber layer in the entire tread portion is preferably 10% or more. It is more preferable that the thickness of the cap rubber layer in the entire tread portion is 70% or more.

[0037] The thickness of the cap rubber layer and the thickness of the base rubber layer described above can be calculated by adding up the thickness of the cap rubber layer and the thickness of the base rubber layer in the thickness of the tread portion measured in a cross section cut out radially from the tire with the bead portion aligned to the normal rim width.

[0038] Here, the term "genuine rim" refers to a rim that is determined for each tire by the standard system that includes the standard on which the tire is based, such as the standard rim for the applicable size described in the "JATMA YEAR BOOK" for JATMA (Japan Automobile Tire Manufacturers Association), the "Measuring Rim" described in the "STANDARDS MANUAL" for ETRTO (The European Tire and Rim Technical Organisation), and the "Design Rim" described in the "YEAR BOOK" for TRA (The Tire and Rim Association, Inc.), and refers to JATMA, ETRTO, and TRA in that order, and follows the standard if there is an applicable size at the time of reference. In the case of a tire not specified in the standard, it refers to a rim that can be assembled to a rim and can hold internal pressure, that is, a rim that does not leak air from between the rim and tire, with the smallest rim diameter and the next narrowest rim width.

[0039] 3. Tire weight and maximum load capacity In the present invention, the ratio of the tire weight (kg) to the tire's maximum load capacity (kg) (tire weight / maximum load capacity) is preferably less than 0.0150. In this way, a tire with a small tire weight compared to the tire's maximum load capacity has a relatively thin rubber thickness, which is thought to sufficiently suppress the temperature rise of the entire tire and further improve the durability of the tire equipped with electronic components during running.

[0040] In the above, "tire weight (kg)" refers to the weight of the tire alone, excluding the weight of the rim.

[0041] The "maximum load capacity (kg)" can be calculated as WL from the following formula, where Wt (mm) is the tire section width, Ht (mm) is the tire section height, and Dt (mm) is the tire outer diameter measured under normal conditions. Here, the tire section width Wt is the maximum width between the outer surfaces of the sidewalls under normal conditions, excluding any patterns or letters on the side of the tire. The tire section height Ht is half the difference between the tire outer diameter and the nominal rim diameter. V = {(Dt / 2) 2 -(Dt / 2-Ht) 2}×π×Wt WL=0.000011×V+100

[0042] In the above description, "normal state" refers to a state in which the tire is mounted on a normal rim, inflated to normal internal pressure, and unloaded. Note that "normal internal pressure" refers to the air pressure specified for each tire by each standard in the standard system including the standard on which the tire is based, and refers to the maximum value listed in the table "TIRE LOAD LIMITS AT VARIOUS COLD INFLATION PRESSURES" for TRA, referring to JATMA, ETRTO, and TRA in that order, and following the standard if there is an applicable size at the time of reference. In the case of a tire not specified in the standard, it refers to the normal internal pressure (250 KPa or more) of another tire size (specified in the standard) that is specified with the above-mentioned normal rim as the standard rim. Note that if multiple normal internal pressures of 250 KPa or more are specified, it refers to the minimum value among them.

[0043] 4. Relationship between the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex and the circumferential length of the electronic components When the circumferential length of the electronic component is increased, the contact length of the electronic component with the surroundings is increased, which is thought to facilitate stress concentration and to facilitate the occurrence of peeling starting points. On the other hand, as described above, it is thought that deformation and heat generation of the bead apex can be suppressed by increasing the complex modulus of elasticity of the bead apex. For this reason, it is preferable to suppress the concentration of stress by increasing the complex modulus of elasticity of the bead apex relative to the circumferential length of the electronic component.

[0044] Specifically, 70°C E * Ratio of BA to L (mm) (70℃E * If the ratio BA / L is 0.6 or more, it is believed that the concentration of stress can be sufficiently suppressed, and the durability of a tire equipped with electronic components during running can be further improved.

[0045] 5. Relationship between loss tangent of bead apex and clinch and circumferential length of electronic components As mentioned above, since the bead apex is a part fixed to the rim, the amount of deformation during running is thought to be small, but even so, it deforms and generates heat while the tire is rolling. On the other hand, since the clinch is also a part fixed to the rim, the amount of deformation during running is thought to be small, but even so, it deforms and generates heat while the tire is rolling.

[0046] For this reason, by controlling the product of the sum of the heat generation (loss tangent) of the bead apex and clinch and the length of the electronic component in the tire circumferential direction to a certain value or less, it is possible to suppress heat generation and heat accumulation around the electronic component, thereby suppressing the occurrence of deformation and further improving the durability of tires equipped with electronic components while they are in motion.

[0047] Specifically, if the product of the sum of 70°C tan δBA and 70°C tan δCA (70°C tan δBA + 70°C tan δCA) and the tire circumferential length L (mm) of the electronic component ((70°C tan δBA + 70°C tan δCA) × L) is controlled to be 25 or less, it is believed that heat generation and heat accumulation around the electronic component can be suppressed, thereby suppressing the occurrence of deformation and further improving the durability of tires equipped with electronic components when in motion.

[0048] 6. Relationship between the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex and clinch and the circumferential length of the electronic components (1) As described above, it is believed that the longer the length of the electronic component in the tire circumferential direction, the longer the length of the electronic component in contact with the surroundings, making it easier for peeling to occur. However, by increasing the ratio of the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex to the complex elastic modulus of the clinch and by increasing that ratio relative to the tire circumferential direction length of the electronic component, it becomes easier to suppress the occurrence of deformation at the contact area between the electronic component and its surroundings, and therefore it is believed that the durability of a tire equipped with electronic components while in motion can be further improved.

[0049] Specifically, 70°C E * 70°C to CA * BA ratio (70℃E *BA / 70℃E * CA) L (mm) ratio ((70℃E * BA / 70℃E * It is considered that if the ratio CA) / L) is 0.055 or more, the occurrence of deformation in the contact area between the electronic component and its surroundings is suppressed, and the durability of the tire equipped with the electronic component during running can be further improved.

[0050] (2) As the length of the electronic component in the tire circumferential direction increases, the length of contact between the electronic component and the surroundings increases, which is thought to make it easier for stress to concentrate and easier for peeling to occur. For this reason, it is preferable to increase the sum of the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex and the clinch relative to the length L to suppress the concentration of stress.

[0051] Specifically, 70°C E * BA and 70℃E * CA and harmony (70℃E * BA+70℃E * Ratio of CA to L (mm) (70℃E * BA+70℃E * It is considered that if the ratio CA) / L) is 0.8 or more, the concentration of stress can be sufficiently suppressed, and the durability of the tire equipped with electronic components during running can be further improved.

[0052] 7. Electronic Components In the present invention, it is preferable to use an RFID or a sensor as the electronic component, and an RFID is more preferable considering that it can store a large amount of information and can be read without contact, and can store tire manufacturing information, management information, customer information, etc. in addition to data such as pressure and temperature. Specific examples of the sensor include a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, an acceleration sensor, a magnetic sensor, and a groove depth sensor.

[0053] It is preferable that the surface of the electronic component is provided with an adhesive layer or a plating layer for improving adhesion to the rubber, thereby making it possible to sufficiently prevent the electronic component from peeling off.

[0054] As a specific adhesive layer, a known metal-rubber adhesive can be used, which can be purchased from LORD Corp., etc. As a plating layer, it is preferable to include, for example, copper, and it is preferable to alloy it with tin, nickel, iron, zinc, cobalt, aluminum, magnesium, or the like.

[0055] In addition, it is preferable that an electronic component coating layer having a thickness of 0.5 mm or more is provided on the surface of the electronic component. In this way, by providing an appropriate gap between the electronic component and the adjacent bead apex or carcass layer, the electronic component is less susceptible to the influence of deformation at the interface, and peeling of the electronic component can be sufficiently suppressed.

[0056] As a specific example of the electronic component covering layer, a rubber composition or a thermoplastic elastomer composition can be used, such as the rubber compositions described in this specification or rubber compositions known in the field of tires.

[0057] The product (D1×W) of the shortest distance D1 (mm) to the tire outer surface and the weight W (g) of the electronic component is preferably 2.5 or less. By controlling D1×W to such a value, deformation around the electronic component can be sufficiently suppressed, and peeling can be suppressed.

[0058] In the present invention, the longitudinal length of the electronic component (including the antenna) is preferably 80 mm or less, and more preferably 50 mm or less. This size makes it possible to suppress the occurrence of local stress concentration and to properly align and adhere the electronic component to the tire components, thereby sufficiently suppressing peeling and further improving the durability of the tire to which the electronic component is attached during running.

[0059] [3] Implementation form Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the embodiments.

[0060] 1. Tire according to the present embodiment 1 and 2 are schematic cross-sectional views showing the structure of a tire according to an embodiment of the present invention. In Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, 1 is a tire, 2 is a bead portion, 3 is a sidewall portion, 4 is a tread portion, 31 is a sidewall, 32 is a carcass layer, 33 is an inner liner, and 34 is an electronic component. The carcass layer 32 is folded back from the inner side in the tire width direction to the outer side at the lower end of the bead core 21 along the bead core 21 and the bead apex 22 that constitute the bead portion 2, and then bonded to the inner carcass layer 32. A chafer 24 is provided on the inner side in the tire width direction of the bead portion 2, and a clinch 23 that extends to the chafer 24 is provided on the outer side in the tire width direction.

[0061] 1 and 2, in this embodiment, the electronic component 34 is provided between the bead apex 22 and the carcass layer 32. Here, "the electronic component is provided between the bead apex and the carcass layer" means that the electronic component is provided between the surfaces opposite to the surfaces where the bead apex and the carcass layer are in contact with each other, and also includes the case where the electronic component is embedded in the bead apex carcass layer or the carcass layer.

[0062] For example, in FIG. 1, an electronic component 34 is provided between the bead apex 22 on the inner side in the tire width direction and the carcass layer 32, and in FIG. 2, an electronic component 34 is provided between the bead apex 22 on the outer side in the tire width direction and the carcass layer 32.

[0063] 3A and 3B are schematic plan views showing the configuration of the electronic component used in this embodiment, showing two examples (a) and (b). As shown in Fig. 3A and 3B, the electronic component 34 is composed of a main body 34a made of an IC chip and an antenna 34b.

[0064] With this configuration, the bead apex 22, the clinch 23, and the tread portion 4 satisfy the above-mentioned parameters, so that the amount of deformation around the electronic components can be sufficiently reduced and breakage and damage to the electronic components can be suppressed, thereby improving the durability of the tire to which the electronic components are attached while it is in motion.

[0065] 2. Rubber composition In this embodiment, each of the rubber compositions constituting the above-mentioned bead apex, clinch, and tread (hereinafter referred to as the "rubber composition for the bead apex", the "rubber composition for the clinch", and the "rubber composition for the tread", respectively) can be obtained by kneading various compounding materials such as a rubber component, a reinforcing material, an antioxidant, oil, a resin material, an antioxidant, and additives.

[0066] (1) Compounding materials (a) Rubber component In each rubber composition, the rubber component is not particularly limited, and for example, diene rubbers such as natural rubber (NR), isoprene rubber (IR), butadiene rubber (BR), styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), chloroprene rubber (CR), and butyl rubber (IIR) can be used. These may be used alone, or two or more types may be used in combination. For example, a combination of isoprene rubber and SBR is preferable for a rubber composition for a bead apex, a combination of isoprene rubber and BR is preferable for a rubber composition for a clinch, and a combination of isoprene rubber, SBR, and BR is preferable for a rubber composition for a tread.

[0067] (a) Isoprene rubber Examples of isoprene-based rubber include natural rubber (NR), isoprene rubber (IR), modified NR, modified NR, and modified IR, with NR being preferred from the standpoint of excellent strength.

[0068] As the NR, for example, SVR-L, SIR20, RSS♯3, TSR20, etc., which are common in the tire industry, can be used. As the IR, there is no particular limitation, and for example, IR2200 manufactured by Zeon Corporation, etc., which are common in the tire industry, can be used. As the modified NR, deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR), highly purified natural rubber (UPNR), etc. can be used. As the modified NR, epoxidized natural rubber (ENR), hydrogenated natural rubber (HNR), grafted natural rubber, etc. can be used. As the modified IR, epoxidized isoprene rubber, hydrogenated isoprene rubber, grafted isoprene rubber, etc. can be used. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0069] In the rubber composition for a bead apex, the content of the isoprene-based rubber in 100 parts by mass of the rubber component is preferably 75 parts by mass or more, and more preferably 80 parts by mass or more, and is preferably 95 parts by mass or less, and more preferably 90 parts by mass or less.

[0070] In the rubber composition for clinching, the content of the isoprene-based rubber in 100 parts by mass of the rubber component is preferably 35 parts by mass or more, more preferably 55 parts by mass or more, and is preferably 70 parts by mass or less, more preferably 65 parts by mass or less.

[0071] In the rubber composition for tread, the content of the isoprene-based rubber in 100 parts by mass of the rubber component is preferably 5 parts by mass or more, more preferably 8 parts by mass or more, and is preferably 15 parts by mass or less, more preferably 12 parts by mass or less.

[0072] (b) SBR The weight average molecular weight of SBR is, for example, more than 100,000 and less than 2,000,000. The styrene content of SBR is, for example, preferably more than 5% by mass, more preferably more than 10% by mass, and even more preferably more than 15% by mass. On the other hand, it is preferably less than 40% by mass, more preferably less than 35% by mass, and even more preferably less than 30% by mass. The vinyl content (amount of 1,2-bonded butadiene units) of SBR is, for example, preferably more than 5% by mass, more preferably more than 10% by mass, and even more preferably more than 15% by mass. On the other hand, it is preferably less than 70% by mass, more preferably less than 40% by mass, and even more preferably less than 30% by mass. The structure identification of SBR (measurement of styrene content and vinyl content) can be performed, for example, using a JNM-ECA series device manufactured by JEOL Ltd.

[0073] There are no particular limitations on the SBR, and for example, emulsion-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber (E-SBR), solution-polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber (S-SBR), etc. can be used. The SBR may be either unmodified SBR or modified SBR. In addition, hydrogenated SBR obtained by hydrogenating the butadiene portion of SBR may be used, and hydrogenated SBR may be obtained by subsequently hydrogenating the BR portion of SBR, or a similar structure may be obtained by copolymerizing styrene, ethylene, and butadiene.

[0131] The method for confirming whether or not acylglycerol is contained in the rubber composition is not particularly limited, but may be any of the following methods: 1 It can be confirmed by H-NMR measurement. For example, a rubber composition containing triacylglycerol is immersed in deuterated chloroform at room temperature (25°C) for 24 hours, the rubber composition is removed, and then 1H-NMR is measured at room temperature. When the signal of tetramethylsilane (TMS) is set to 0.00 ppm, signals are observed around 5.26 ppm, around 4.28 ppm, and around 4.15 ppm. These signals are presumed to be signals derived from hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms adjacent to oxygen atoms of ester groups, and therefore the inclusion of acylglycerol can be confirmed. Here, "around" refers to a range of ±0.10 ppm.

[0182] And the complex modulus (E * The complex modulus (E) can be adjusted by adjusting the amount of the curable resin component. The amount of carbon black and sulfur can also be adjusted. * Specifically, the complex modulus (E * However, increasing the amount of carbon black increases the heat generation property, while increasing the amount of sulfur decreases the heat generation property. Therefore, it is preferable to adopt a method in which first, after determining whether or not to use a curable resin component and the blending amount, the amount of sulfur is adjusted, and finally the amount of carbon black is adjusted. This makes it possible to obtain the desired complex modulus of elasticity (E * ) can be achieved.

[0183] (2) Preparation of each rubber composition Each rubber composition can be prepared by a general method, for example, a manufacturing method including a base kneading step of kneading a rubber component with a filler such as carbon black, and a finish kneading step of kneading the kneaded product obtained in the base kneading step with a crosslinking agent.

[0184] The kneading can be carried out using a known (internal) kneading machine such as a Banbury mixer, a kneader, or an open roll.

[0185] The kneading temperature in the base kneading step is, for example, more than 50° C. and less than 200° C., and the kneading time is, for example, more than 30 seconds and less than 30 minutes.

[0187] The rubber composition for a bead apex, the rubber composition for a clinch, and the rubber composition for a tread obtained as described above can then be extruded into a predetermined shape to be molded into a bead apex, a clinch, and a tread, respectively.

[0188] 3. Tire manufacturing The tire according to the present embodiment can be manufactured by a normal method, except that the electronic components are embedded during the molding process. First, the rubber compositions obtained as described above are molded into a predetermined shape to manufacture the bead apex, clinch, and tread. Next, the rubber compositions are combined with other rubber components on a tire building machine to manufacture an unvulcanized tire.

[0189] Specifically, an inner liner as a member for ensuring airtightness of the tire, a carcass as a member for enduring the load, impact, and filling air pressure received by the tire, and a belt member as a member for tightening the carcass and increasing the rigidity of the tread are wound around a forming drum, both ends of the carcass are fixed to both side edges, and beads as members for fixing the tire to the rim are arranged, and after forming into a toroidal shape, a tread is attached to the center of the outer periphery and a sidewall is attached to the radially outer side to form the side portion, thereby producing an unvulcanized tire. During this unvulcanized tire production process, electronic components are embedded in predetermined positions.

[0190] The unvulcanized tire produced as described above is then heated and pressurized in a vulcanizer to obtain a tire. The vulcanization step can be carried out by applying a known vulcanization method. The vulcanization temperature is, for example, more than 120°C and less than 200°C, and the vulcanization time is, for example, more than 5 minutes and less than 15 minutes.

[0191] As described above, the tire obtained as described above has electronic components provided between the bead apex and the carcass layer, and the complex elastic modulus of the bead apex is increased. Furthermore, the product of the loss tangent of the clinch and the length of the electronic components in the tire circumferential direction is controlled to a certain value or less, thereby reducing the amount of deformation around the electronic components during running and suppressing peeling and damage to the electronic components within the tire. As a result, the durability of the tire to which the electronic components are attached during running can be improved.

[0192] The tire according to the present invention can be suitably used as a passenger car tire, a large passenger car tire, a large SUV tire, a truck / bus tire, a motorcycle tire, a racing tire, a studless tire (winter tire), an all-season tire, a run-flat tire, etc., and is particularly preferably used as a passenger car tire.

Furthermore, the thickness direction of the test specimen shall be aligned with the radial direction of the tire for the tread, and with the width direction of the tire for the bead apex and clinch. If the thickness of each component is less than 1 mm, a test specimen of a certain thickness shall be taken from the thickest location on the tire equatorial plane of that component. For example, if the thickness on the tire equatorial plane is 0.5 mm, a test specimen with a length of 20 mm x width of 4 mm x thickness of 0.5 mm shall be used for the measurement.

[0209] 3. Tire manufacturing Next, the bead apex, clinch, and tread obtained above are laminated together with other tire components in the combinations shown in Tables 4 to 9 to form an unvulcanized tire, and the unvulcanized tire is press-vulcanized for 10 minutes under a condition of 170°C to produce each test tire shown in Tables 4 to 9.

[0210] When forming an unvulcanized tire, an electronic component (RFID) with the size (weight W (g), tire circumferential length L (mm), longitudinal length (mm)) shown in Tables 4 to 9 is embedded in the embedding position shown in Tables 4 to 9. At this time, a plating layer containing copper and nickel is formed in advance on the surface of the electronic component, and a rubber coating layer with a thickness of 0.5 mm is provided.

[0211] In Tables 4 to 9, embedding position 1 indicates embedding the electronic component between the bead apex on the inner side in the tire width direction and the carcass layer (see FIG. 1), embedding position 2 indicates embedding the electronic component between the bead apex on the outer side in the tire width direction and the carcass layer (see FIG. 2), embedding position 3 indicates embedding the electronic component on the outer side in the tire width direction, outside the carcass layer (see FIG. 4), and embedding position 4 indicates embedding the electronic component between the carcass layer and the sidewall portion on the outer side in the tire width direction (see FIG. 5).

[0212] 4. Calculation of parameters Next, for each test tire (different from the tire from which the test specimens were taken), the tire weight (kg), section height H (mm), and outer diameter Dt (mm) are measured, and the maximum load capacity (kg) is calculated based on these. In addition, the shortest distance D1 (mm) from the electronic component to the outer surface of the tire and the radial distance D2 (mm) from the top end of the bead core to the electronic component are measured, and (D2 / H) is calculated.

[0213] And 70℃ tanδ CA×L, 70℃ E * BA / D2, tire weight / maximum load capacity, 70℃ tan δBA×D2, 70℃E * BA / L, (70℃tanδBA+70℃tanδCA)×L, (70℃E * BA / 70℃E * CA) / L, (70℃E * BA+70℃E * Calculate CA) / L and D1×W.

[0214] 5. Performance evaluation test (evaluation of tire durability during driving) Each test tire is fitted to all wheels of a vehicle (a domestic FF vehicle with a 2000cc engine displacement) and the internal pressure is inflated to 230kPa. The vehicle is then driven overloaded on a test course. The test involves alternating between driving over bumps on the road surface and normal driving. The vehicle starts at a speed of 50km / h, and the speed is gradually increased with each repetition, with the driving speed recorded just before the driver senses something is wrong.

[0215] Next, the results of Comparative Example 1 (Comparative Example 1-1, Comparative Example 2-1, Comparative Example 3-1) for each study were set as 100, and indexed based on the following formula to evaluate the durability of the tire during running. A larger value indicates better durability of the tire during running. Tire durability during driving = [(Test tire results) / (Comparative example 1 results)]×100
