专利说明:

The invention relates to a tire assembly, a tire and a method of manufacturing a tire.
[002] The invention relates to the field of tires for equipping vehicles. The tire is designed preferentially for passenger vehicles, but can be used on any other type of vehicle such as two-wheeled vehicles, heavy goods vehicles, agricultural vehicles, civil engineering vehicles or aircraft or, more generally, on any device rolling.
[003] A conventional tire is a toric structure, intended to be mounted on a rim, pressurized by an inflation gas and crushed on a ground under the action of a load. The tire has at all points of its rolling surface, intended to come into contact with a ground, a double curvature: a circumferential curvature and a meridian curvature. By circumferential curvature is meant a curvature in a circumferential plane, defined by a circumferential direction, tangent to the running surface of the tire according to the rolling direction of the tire, and a radial direction, perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the tire. By meridian curvature is meant a curvature in a meridian or radial plane, defined by an axial direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the tire, and a radial direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the tire.
[004] In the following, the expression "radially inner, respectively radially outer" means "closer to, respectively farther from the axis of rotation of the tire." The expression "axially inner, respectively axially outer" means "closer or farther away from the equatorial plane of the tire", the equatorial plane of the tire being the plane passing through the middle of the running surface of the tire and perpendicular to the tire. rotation axis of the tire.
[005] It is known that the flattening of the tire on a horizontal ground, in a circumferential plane and in a meridian plane, is conditioned by the values of the respectively circumferential and meridian radii of curvature, at the points of the surface of the surface. bearing positioned at the limits of the contact area of the tire with the ground. This flattening is all the more facilitated as these radii of curvature are large, that is to say that the curvatures are small, the curvature at a point, in the mathematical sense, being the inverse of the radius of curvature. It is also known that the flattening of the tire impacts the performance of the tire, in particular rolling resistance, adhesion, wear and noise.
[006] Therefore, a person skilled in the art, tire specialist, seeking to obtain the right compromise between the expected performance of the tire such as, in a non-exhaustive manner, wear, adhesion, endurance, resistance. rolling and noise, has developed alternative solutions to the conventional tire to optimize its flattening.
[007] A conventional tire of the state of the art generally has a large meridian curvature, that is to say a small radius of meridian curvature, at the axial ends of the tread, called shoulders, when the pneumatic, mounted on its mounting rim and inflated to its recommended operating pressure, is subject to its service charge. The mounting rim, operating pressure and service load are defined by standards, such as, for example, the standards of the European Tire and Rim Technical Organization (ETRTO).
[008] A conventional tire carries the load applied, essentially by the axial ends of the tread, or shoulders, and the flanks connecting the tread to beads ensuring the mechanical connection of the tire with its mounting rim. It is known that a meridian flattening of a conventional tire, with a small meridian curve at the shoulders, is generally difficult to obtain.
[009] US 4235270 discloses a tire having an annular body of elastomeric material, comprising a radially outer cylindrical portion, at the periphery of the tire, which may comprise a tread, and a radially inner cylindrical portion intended to be mounted on a rim. A plurality of walls, circumferentially spaced, extend from the radially inner cylindrical portion to the radially outer cylindrical portion, and provide load bearing. In addition, flanks may connect the two cylindrical portions respectively radially inner and radially outer, to form, in association with the tread and the sidewalls, a closed cavity and thus allow the pressurization of the tire. Such a tire, however, has a high mass, compared to a conventional tire, and, because of its massive nature, is likely to dissipate high energy, which can limit its endurance, and therefore its lifetime.
[010] WO 2009087291 discloses a pneumatic structure comprising two annular rings, respectively internal, or radially inner, and outer, or radially outer, connected by two sides and by a supporting structure. According to this invention, the carrier structure is pressurized and shares the annular volume of the tire into a plurality of compartments or cells, and the flanks are connected or integrated with the carrier structure. In this case, the load applied is carried by both the carrier structure and the sidewalls. The pressure distribution in the contact area is not homogeneous in the axial width of the contact area, with overpressures at the shoulders due to the meridian flattening difficulty due to the connection between the flanks and the supporting structure. These overpressures at the shoulders are likely to generate significant wear of the shoulders of the tread.
[011] WO 2005007422 discloses an adaptive wheel comprising an adaptive band and a plurality of radii extending radially inwardly from the adaptive band to a hub. The adaptive strip is intended to adapt to the surface of contact with a soil and to cover the obstacles. The spokes transmit the load carried between the adaptive strip and the hub, thanks to the tensioning of the spokes which are not in contact with the ground. Such an adaptive wheel requires an optimization of the distribution of the spokes to ensure a substantially cylindrical periphery. In addition, an adaptive wheel has a relatively high mass compared to a conventional tire.
The present invention aims to provide a tire assembly for an improved flattening of the tread, when the tire is subjected to a load.
[013] Tire assembly according to the invention [014] For this purpose, the invention relates to a tire assembly, comprising: - an assembly comprising: a first impregnated woven or knitted structure comprising a first fabric or knit and a first layer of a first polymeric composition, the first fabric or knit being impregnated at least in part with the first polymeric composition; - a second impregnated woven or knitted structure comprising a second fabric or knit and a second layer of a second polymeric composition, the second fabric or knit being impregnated at least in part with the second polymeric composition; a support structure comprising carrying elements connecting the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) them; at least one sacrificial means for temporarily holding the first and second woven or knitted structures impregnated with respect to each other, connecting the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) with each other, the sacrificial means being arranged in order to break before the carrier elements when the first and second impregnated woven or impregnated structures are separated from each other.
[015] The principle of a tire assembly according to the invention is to have a bearing structure comprising carrier elements connecting the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s), and capable, once arranged together in the tire, to carry the load applied to the tire by the tensioning of a part of the carrier elements positioned outside the contact area, the load-bearing elements positioned in the contact area being subjected to buckling as subject to a compressive force and therefore not involved in the carrying of the applied load.
The sacrificial means makes it possible, during the various steps of the method of manufacturing the tire comprising the assembly according to the invention, to maintain the assembly in a constant geometrical shape, in particular the relative position of the first and second woven or knitted structures. impregnated relative to each other. Contrary to the load-bearing elements which, at the end of the manufacturing process of the tire, have a load-carrying function, the sacrificial means has a temporary holding function because this function disappears after breaking of the means, this rupture taking place at the moment timely during the manufacturing process of the tire, that is to say from the moment when maintaining the assembly in a constant geometric shape is no longer required.
[017] Each first and second structure of the assembly may comprise a fabric or a knit impregnated with the corresponding polymeric composition. Thus, several embodiments can be envisaged. In a preferred embodiment, each structure comprises a fabric impregnated with the corresponding polymeric composition. In another embodiment, each structure comprises a knit impregnated with the corresponding polymeric composition. In yet another embodiment, the first structure comprises a fabric impregnated with the first polymeric composition and the second structure comprises a knit impregnated with the second composition. In yet another embodiment, the first structure comprises a knit impregnated with the first polymeric composition and the second structure comprises a fabric impregnated with the second composition.
By "impregnated" it is meant that each polymeric composition penetrates at least the surface of the fabric or knit. One can therefore have a unifacial impregnation with a cover of one side of the fabric or knit by the polymeric composition or a bifacial impregnation with a covering of both sides of the fabric or knit by the polymeric composition. In both cases, the impregnation makes it possible to create a mechanical anchoring thanks to the penetration of the polymeric composition into the interstices present in the fabric or the knit.
[019] In one embodiment, each polymeric composition comprises at least one elastomer, preferably a diene elastomer. By elastomer or rubber (both terms being synonymous) of the diene type, is generally meant an elastomer derived at least in part (ie a homopolymer or a copolymer) of monomers dienes (monomers carrying two carbon-carbon double bonds, conjugated or not). This composition can then be either in the raw state or in the cooked state.
[020] Particularly preferably, the diene elastomer of the rubber composition is chosen from the group consisting of polybutadienes (BR), synthetic polyisoprenes (IR), natural rubber (NR), butadiene copolymers, copolymers of isoprene and mixtures of these elastomers. Such copolymers are more preferably selected from the group consisting of butadiene-styrene copolymers (SBR), isoprene-butadiene copolymers (BIR), isoprene-styrene copolymers (SIR), isoprene-copolymers of butadiene-styrene (SBIR) and mixtures of such copolymers.
[021] Each polymer composition may contain a single diene elastomer or a mixture of several diene elastomers, the diene elastomer (s) may be used in combination with any type of synthetic elastomer other than diene, or even with polymers other than elastomers, for example thermoplastic polymers.
[022] Furthermore, in this embodiment, each polymer composition comprises, in addition to the elastomer, preferably dienic, a reinforcing filler, for example carbon black, a crosslinking system, for example a vulcanization system. and various additives.
[023] In another embodiment, each polymeric composition comprises at least one thermoplastic polymer. A thermoplastic polymer is by definition thermofusible. Examples of such thermoplastic polymers are aliphatic polyamides, for example nylon, polyesters, for example PET or PEN, and thermoplastic elastomers.
[024] Thermoplastic elastomers (abbreviated as "TPE") are elastomers in the form of block copolymers based on thermoplastic blocks. Of intermediate structure between thermoplastic polymers and elastomers, they consist in known manner of rigid thermoplastic blocks, in particular polystyrene linked by flexible elastomer blocks, for example polybutadiene or polyisoprene for unsaturated TPE or poly (ethylene / butylene) for saturated TPEs. This is the reason why, in known manner, the above TPE block copolymers are generally characterized by the presence of two glass transition peaks, the first peak (lowest temperature, generally negative) being relative to the elastomer sequence of the TPE copolymer, the second peak (highest temperature, positive, typically greater than 80 ° C for preferred elastomers TPS type) being relative to the thermoplastic part (eg styrene blocks) of the TPE copolymer. These TPE elastomers are often triblock elastomers with two rigid segments connected by a flexible segment. The rigid and flexible segments can be arranged linearly, star or connected. These TPE elastomers may also be diblock elastomers with a single rigid segment connected to a flexible segment. Typically, each of these segments or blocks contains at least more than 5, usually more than 10 base units (e.g., styrene units and isoprene units for a styrene / isoprene / styrene block copolymer).
[025] Preferably, the thermoplastic elastomer is unsaturated. By unsaturated TPE elastomer is meant by definition and well known manner a TPE elastomer which is provided with ethylenic unsaturations, that is to say which has carbon-carbon double bonds (conjugated or not); reciprocally, a saturated TPE elastomer is of course a TPE elastomer which is free of such double bonds.
[026] The first and second polymeric compositions may be different or identical. For example, the first polymeric composition may comprise a diene elastomer and the second polymeric composition may comprise a thermoplastic elastomer or vice versa.
[027] In a preferred embodiment, the carrier structure comprises a plurality of identical carrying elements, that is to say whose geometric characteristics and constituent materials are identical.
[028] The carrier elements are arranged so that they are two by two not mechanically linked in a space delimited by the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s). Thus, the supporting elements have independent mechanical behaviors. For example, the load-bearing elements are not linked together so as to form a network or a lattice.
[029] Advantageously, the first and second impregnated woven or knitted structures respectively comprising first and second external faces substantially parallel to each other, the sacrificial means is arranged to break before the carrier elements when the first and second woven or knitted structures impregnated with each other in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first and second outer faces. Thus, the rupture can be caused during the shaping of the tire using the assembly according to the invention, a conformation during which the first and second woven or knitted structures impregnated with each other are separated.
[030] Sacrificial means of the assembly according to the invention [031] In a preferred embodiment, each temporary holding sacrificial means comprises a sacrificial element of temporary holding. Such sacrificial wired elements of temporary maintenance form a temporary frame.
[032] Wired element means any elongate element of great length relative to its cross section, regardless of the shape of the latter, for example circular, oblong, rectangular or square, or even flat, this wire element can be by twisted or corrugated example. When it is circular in shape, its diameter is preferably less than 5 mm, more preferably in a range from 100 pm to 1.2 mm.
[033] Preferably, each temporary sacrificial wire element is textile, that is to say non-metallic, and is for example made of a material chosen from a polyester, a polyamide, a polyketone, a polyvinyl alcohol, a cellulose , a mineral fiber, a natural fiber, an elastomeric material or a mixture of these materials. Examples of polyesters are PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), PBN (polybutylene naphthalate), PPT (polypropylene terephthalate), PPN (polypropylene naphthalate). Among the polyamides, mention may be made of aliphatic polyamides such as polyamides 4-6, 6, 6-6 (nylon), 11 or 12 and aromatic polyamides such as aramid.
[034] For example, each temporary sacrificial wire element is a textile assembly comprising a plurality of textile monofilament or multi-filamentary fibers, twisted together or not. Thus, in one embodiment, it will be possible to have an assembly in which the fibers are substantially parallel to one another. In another embodiment, it will be possible to have an assembly in which the fibers are helically wound. In yet another embodiment, each sacrificial wire element is made of a monofilament. Each monofilament or multi-filament fiber has a diameter of between 5 and 20 μm, for example 10 μm.
[035] In one embodiment, the sacrificial temporary holding element extends alternately from the first fabric or knit to the second fabric or knit and from the second fabric or knit to the first fabric or knit when moving the along the sacrificial elementary element of temporary maintenance. Even more preferentially, the temporary holding sacrificial wire element is interwoven with each first and second fabric or knit. Thus, each sacrificial wire element ensures optimal retention of the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) relative to each other.
[036] Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the temporary holding sacrificial wire element comprises: at least one bonding wire portion of the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) with each other and at least first and second wired wire portions extending the wire bond portion.
[037] Preferably, the first and second wire clamping portions extend the wire bond portion respectively in or in contact with each first and second fabric (s) or knit (s).
[038] Even more preferably, each first and second fabric or knit fabric being a fabric comprising intersections of a first family of wire elements, substantially parallel to each other, and a second family of wire elements, substantially parallel to each other each first and second wired wire portion is wound at least in part around at least one wire element of at least one of the first and second families of wire elements respectively of each first and second tissue.
[039] Wired element means any elongate element of great length relative to its cross section, regardless of the shape of the latter, for example circular, oblong, rectangular or square, or even flat, this wire element may be by twisted or corrugated example. When it is circular in shape, its diameter is preferably less than 5 mm, more preferably in a range from 100 pm to 1.2 mm.
[040] Preferably, each wire element of each first and second family is textile, that is to say non-metallic, and is for example made of a material chosen from a polyester, a polyamide, a polyketone, a polyvinyl alcohol, a cellulose, a mineral fiber, a natural fiber, an elastomeric material or a mixture of these materials. Examples of polyesters are PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), PBN (polybutylene naphthalate), PPT (polypropylene terephthalate), PPN (polypropylene naphthalate). Among the polyamides, mention may be made of aliphatic polyamides such as polyamides 4-6, 6, 6-6 (nylon), 11 or 12 and aromatic polyamides such as aramid.
[041] For example, each wire element of each first and second family is a textile assembly comprising one or more textile monofilament or multi-filamentary fibers, twisted together or not. Thus, in one embodiment, it will be possible to have an assembly in which the fibers are substantially parallel to one another. In another embodiment, it will also be possible to have an assembly in which the fibers are wound helically. In yet another embodiment, each wire element of each first and second family is made of a monofilament. Each monofilament or multi-filament fiber has a diameter of between 5 and 20 μm, for example 10 μm.
[042] In another embodiment, each wire element of each first and second family is metallic, for example an assembly of metal monofilaments, each metal monofilament having a diameter typically less than 50 pm, for example 10 pm. In one embodiment, each wire element of each first and second family consists of an assembly of several metal monofilaments. In another embodiment, each wire element of each first and second family is made of a metal monofilament.
[043] Even more preferentially, the first family consisting of wired chain elements and the second family consisting of wired wire elements, each first and second wired wire portion is wound at least partly around wire elements. weft of each first and second fabric. In another embodiment, each first and second wired wire portion is wound at least in part around wire chain members of each first and second fabric.
[044] When the assembly or the assembly is wound, for example on a storage reel, the warp wire elements are substantially parallel to the winding and unwinding direction of the assembly or assembly.
[045] In one advantageous embodiment, each carrier element being a carrier wire element comprising: at least one carrier wire portion extending between the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s), and at least one first and second wired anchor portions of the wired element respectively in the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s), extending the wired portion respectively in the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) each temporary guardian sacrificial wire element and each carrier element is arranged such that: - at the break of each temporary maintenance sacrificial wire element, the breaking length of the binding wire portion and the surface breaking force are reached; (Fs') wired wire portions (82) is less than the surface breaking force (Fs) of the wired wire portions (32).
[046] Thus, it is ensured, by the mechanical properties of each sacrificial wire element temporary maintenance and by the mechanical properties of the carrier elements, that the rupture of each elementary sacrificial element of temporary maintenance does not cause the rupture of the elements. wired carriers.
[047] By definition, the breaking length of the bonding wire portion is equal to the product of the unladen length of the bonding wire portion, that is to say the maximum length of the portion without any voltage is exerted on the portion, and the sum (1 + Ar ') where Ar' is the elongation at break of the binding wire portion.
[048] By definition, the surface breaking force of the bonding wire portions is the product of the average surface density of binding wire portions per unit area of the first impregnated woven or knitted structure and the breaking force of each portion. wired link. Similarly, the surface breaking force of the carrier wafer portions is the product of the average surface density of wafer portions per unit area of the first woven or impregnated woven structure and the breaking force of each wired carrier portion.
[049] Bearer elements of the assembly according to the invention [050] In a preferred embodiment, each carrier element is a carrier wire element.
[051] Wired element means any elongate element of great length relative to its cross section, whatever the shape of the latter, for example circular, oblong, rectangular or square, or even flat, this wire element may be by twisted or corrugated example. When it is circular in shape, its diameter is preferably less than 5 mm, more preferably in a range from 100 pm to 1.2 mm.
[052] A carrier wire element, in particular the carrier portion, typically has a smaller characteristic dimension E of its average section SP (which is the average of the sections obtained by the section of the carrier wire element by all the surfaces parallel to the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) and between the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s)) preferably at most equal to 0.02 times the maximum spacing between the two inner faces of the first and second fabric ( s) or knit (s) (which corresponds to the average radial height H of the inner annular space once the assembly arranged within the tire) and a form ratio K of its average section SP preferably at most equal to 3 A smaller characteristic dimension E of the average section SP of the carrier element at most equal to 0.02 times the average radial height H of the inner annular space excludes any massive bearing element, a having a large volume. In other words, when it is wired, each carrier element has a high slenderness, in the radial direction, allowing it to flare at the passage in the contact area. Outside the contact area, each carrier element returns to its original geometry, because its buckling is reversible. Such a carrier element has a good resistance to fatigue. A form ratio K of its mean section SP at most equal to 3 means that the largest characteristic dimension L of its mean section SP is at most equal to 3 times the smallest characteristic dimension E of its mean section SP.
[053] A wired carrier element has a wired-type mechanical behavior, that is to say that it can only be subjected to extension or compression efforts along its mean line.
[054] It should be noted that all wired load-bearing elements of a carrier structure do not necessarily have identical LP lengths.
[055] Preferably, each carrier wire element is textile, that is to say non-metallic, and is for example made of a material chosen from a polyester, a polyamide, a polyketone, a polyvinyl alcohol, a cellulose, a fiber mineral, a natural fiber, an elastomeric material or a mixture of these materials. Examples of polyesters are PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate), PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), PBN (polybutylene naphthalate), PPT (polypropylene terephthalate), PPN (polypropylene naphthalate). Among the polyamides, mention may be made of aliphatic polyamides such as polyamides 4-6, 6, 6-6 (nylon), 11 or 12 and aromatic polyamides such as aramid.
[056] For example, each carrier wire element is a textile assembly comprising one or more textile monofilament or multi-filamentary fibers, twisted together or not. Thus, in one embodiment, it will be possible to have an assembly in which the fibers are substantially parallel to one another. In another embodiment, it will also be possible to have an assembly in which the fibers are wound helically. In yet another embodiment, each carrier wire element is made of a monofilament. Each monofilament or multi-filament fiber has a diameter of between 5 and 20 μm, for example 10 μm.
[057] In another embodiment, each carrier wire element is metallic, for example an assembly of metal monofilaments, each metal monofilament having a diameter typically less than 50 pm, for example 10 pm. In one embodiment, each carrier wire element consists of an assembly of several metal monofilaments. In another embodiment, each carrier wire element is made of a metal monofilament.
[058] In one embodiment, each carrier wire element extends alternately from the first fabric or knit to the second fabric or knit and from the second fabric or knit to the first fabric or knit as one moves along the fabric. wired element.
[059] Even more preferably, each carrier wire element is interwoven with each first and second fabric or knit. Such an assembly has the advantage of being able to be manufactured in a single weaving step. However, it is also possible to envisage fabricating the assembly in two stages, a first step of manufacturing the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) and a second step of interleaving the wearable element or elements with the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s). In both cases, the interleaving of each carrier element with each first and second fabric or knit makes it possible to mechanically anchor each carrier element in each first and second fabric or knit and thus to confer the desired mechanical properties on the supporting structure.
[060] Preferably, the carrier wire element comprises: at least one carrier wired portion extending between the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s), and at least first and second wired portions of anchoring the wired element respectively in the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s), extending the wired portion respectively in the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s).
[061] Each carrier wired portion which connects the inner faces of the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) to one another can be characterized geometrically by its length LP and by its mean section Sp, which is the average of the sections obtained by cutting the wired portion by all the surfaces parallel to the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) and between the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s). In the most frequent case of a constant section of the carrier element and the carrier wired portion, the average section SP is equal to this constant section.
[062] The average section SP of each carrier wired portion comprises a larger characteristic dimension L and a smaller characteristic dimension E, whose ratio K = L / E is called the aspect ratio. By way of example, a circular average section SP, having a diameter equal to d, has a shape ratio K = 1, a rectangular average section SP, having a length L and a width I, has a shape ratio K = L / I, and an elliptical SP average section, having a major axis A and a minor axis a, has a form ratio K = A / a.
[063] Thus, in a preferred embodiment, each first and second fabric or knit fabric being a fabric comprising intersections of a first family of wire elements, substantially parallel to each other, and a second family of wire elements , substantially parallel to each other, each first and second wired anchoring portion is wound at least partly around at least one wire element of at least one of the first and second families of wire elements respectively of each first and second fabric .
[064] Even more preferentially, the first family being constituted by wired chain elements and the second family consisting of wired elements of frame, each first and second wired anchor portion is wound at least partly around elements. weaved weft of each first and second fabric. In another embodiment, each first and second anchor wire portion is wound at least in part around wire chain elements of each first and second fabric.
[065] First and second fabric (s) or knit (s) of the assembly according to the invention [066] In a preferred embodiment, the first fabric or knit is a fabric comprising intersections of a first family of wired elements, substantially parallel to each other, and a second family of wire elements, substantially parallel to each other.
[067] In a preferred embodiment, the second fabric or knit is a fabric comprising intersections of a first family of wire elements, substantially parallel to each other, and a second family of wire elements, substantially parallel between them.
[068] In these preferred embodiments, the fabric comprises, in a manner known to those skilled in the art, an armor characterizing the intertwining of the filamentary elements of the first and second families. According to the embodiments, this armor is of the canvas, serge or satin type. In a preferred manner, in order to confer good mechanical properties in use in a tire, the weave is of the canvas type.
[069] Preferably, the wire elements of the first family extending in the first direction and the wire elements of the second family extending in a second direction, the first and second directions form an angle with each other. ranging from 70 ° to 90 °.
[070] In another embodiment, each first and second fabric or knit is a knit comprising interlaced loops.
[071] The mechanical characteristics of such fabrics such as their extension stiffness and their tensile breaking strength, according to the direction of the wire elements of the first family or that of the wire elements of the second family, depend on the characteristics of the wire elements, such that, for textile filament elements, the titer, expressed in tex or g / 1000 m, the tenacity, expressed in cN / tex, and the standard contraction, expressed in%, these wire elements being distributed according to a given density, expressed in number of threads / dm. All these characteristics are a function of the constituent material of the wire elements and of their manufacturing process.
[072] Preferably, the first fabric extending in a main general direction, the wire elements of at least one of the first and second families extend in a direction forming, with the main general direction of the first fabric, an angle at least 10 ° and not more than 45 °. Even more preferentially, the first family being constituted by wired chain elements and the second family consisting of wired wire elements, the wired chain elements form an angle at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 ° with the main direction of the first fabric. Even more preferably, the wired wire elements form an angle at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 ° with the principal direction of the first fabric.
[073] Preferably, the second fabric extending in a main general direction, the wire elements of at least one of the first and second families extend in a direction forming, with the main general direction of the second fabric, an angle at least 10 ° and not more than 45 °. Even more preferentially, the first family being constituted by wired chain elements and the second family consisting of wired wire elements, the wired chain elements form an angle at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 ° with the main direction of the second fabric. Even more preferably, the wired wire elements form an angle at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 ° with the principal direction of the second fabric.
[074] By principal general direction is meant the general direction in which the fabric extends along its greatest length.
[075] In a particularly advantageous embodiment, each sacrificial wire element, each wired element and each wire element of the first and second wire element families of each first and second fabric are made of the same wired material. This allows on the one hand a standardization of manufacture of the material and on the other hand a simpler manufacturing of the whole.
[076] Pneumatic according to the invention [077] The subject of the invention is also a tire comprising: - an assembly comprising: a first impregnated woven or knitted structure comprising a first fabric or knit fabric and a first layer of a first polymeric composition the first fabric or knit being impregnated at least in part with the first polymeric composition; a second impregnated woven or knitted structure comprising a second fabric or knit and a second layer of a second polymeric composition, the second fabric or knit being impregnated at least in part with the second polymeric composition; a support structure comprising carrying elements connecting the first and second fabric (s) or knit (s) them; a sacrificial means for temporarily holding the first and second woven or knitted structures impregnated with respect to each other, the temporary sacrificial holding means being broken.
[078] Once the tire is manufactured, the sacrificial means is no longer necessary and therefore is visible in a broken state, for example in the form of two complementary parts. The carrier elements then ensure the wearing of the load applied to the tire as well as the other conventional mechanical functions of the tire.
[079] In one embodiment, the tire comprises: - a first structure of revolution formed by the first impregnated woven or knitted structure; a second structure of revolution formed by the second impregnated woven or knitted structure arranged radially inside the first structure of revolution; a crown revolution structure arranged radially outside the first revolution structure; an inner annular space delimited by an internal face of the first revolution structure and an internal face of the second revolution structure; two flanks interconnecting each axial end of the first radially outer revolution structure and each axial end of the second revolution structure, the two flanks delimiting the inner annular space; the inner annular space forming a closed cavity which can be pressurized by an inflation gas.
[080] The second impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the second radially inner revolution structure of the tire is intended to ensure, among other functions, the connection of the assembly, and therefore of the tire, with the mounting means. The first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure of the tire is intended to ensure, among other functions, the connection of the assembly with the crown revolution structure.
[081] Preferably, each flank having a curvilinear length LF, the curvilinear length LF of each flank is advantageously at least equal to 1.05 times, preferably 1.15 times the average radial height H of the inner annular space. Even more advantageously, the curvilinear length LF of each flank is at least equal to 1.3 times and at most equal to 1.6 times the average radial height H of the inner annular space. This flank length feature ensures that the flank deformation will not disturb the meridian flattening of the pneumatic type device due to a low curvature.
[082] Advantageously, the flanks are not directly related to the assembly and preferably are not directly connected to the carrier elements. The flanks contribute in part to the load bearing, according to their own structural rigidity. However, the flanks have an independent mechanical behavior and do not interfere in the mechanical behavior of the supporting structure. The flanks generally comprise at least one elastomeric material and may optionally comprise a reinforcing reinforcement.
[083] In the case of effective pressurization by an inflation gas, the tire then has a pneumatic rigidity, due to pressure, which will also contribute to the carrying of the applied load. Usually, for use on a passenger vehicle, the pressure is at least 0.5 bar, preferably at least 1 bar. The higher the pressure, the higher the contribution of the pneumatic stiffness to the load carrying capacity applied, and, correlatively, the greater the contribution of the structural rigidity of the bearing structure and / or the flanks and / or the respective structures of revolution respectively. radially outer and radially inner to the port of the applied load is low. In the absence of pressurization and in the case of low structural rigidity of the flanks, the bearing structure and the respectively radially outer and radially inner revolution structures would be required to ensure almost all of the load carrying, the flanks playing primarily a role of protection vis-à-vis the possible attacks by elements outside the tire.
[084] The first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure of the tire has an axis of revolution coincident with the axis of rotation of the tire. The second impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the second radially inner revolution structure of the tire is coaxial with the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure of the tire.
[085] The inner annular space has an average radial height H. When the tire is subjected to a nominal radial load ZN and is in contact with a plane ground by a contact surface A, the carrier elements, connected to the portion of the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure of the tire in contact with the ground via the first fabric or knit, are subjected to compression buckling and at least a portion of the carrier elements, connected to the portion of impregnated first woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure of the tire not in contact with the ground, are in tension.
[086] In order to support the applied load, the average surface density D of wafer portions per unit area of the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure, expressed in 1 / m2, being at least equal to to (S / SE) * Z / (A * Fr), where S is the area, in m2, of the radially inner face of the vertex revolution structure, SE is the bonding surface between the outer face of the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure (which is the outer face of the first band) and the radially inner face of the crown revolution structure, in m2, ZN is the nominal radial load, in N, pneumatic applied, A is the ground contact surface, in m2, of the tire, and Fr the breaking force, in N, of each carrier portion. The nominal radial load ZN is the recommended load for the use of the tire. The ground contact surface A is the area where the tire is crushed on the ground under the action of the nominal radial load ZN.
[087] The expression that D is at least equal to (S / SE) * Z / (A * Fr) expresses, in particular, the fact that the average surface density D of the carrier portions is all the greater the greater the the nominal radial load ZN and / or the surface ratio SE / S, representing the degree of overlap of the radially inner face of the crown revolution structure by the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first structure of revolution radially. outside, is weak. The average surface density D of the carrier portions is even lower than the tensile strength Fr of a carrier portion is high.
[088] Such an average surface density D of the carrier portions makes it possible, on the one hand, for the load-bearing members extended outside the contact area to carry the nominal radial load ZN, and, on the other hand, for the load-bearing members. compression in the contact area to ensure a flattening of the tread, both in a circumferential plane and in a meridian plane, improved over the tires known from the state of the art.
[089] Generally, the surface density of the carrier portions is constant both in the circumferential direction and in the axial direction, that is to say that the distribution of the carrier portions is uniform both circumferentially and axially: the density average surface area D is therefore equal to the constant surface density. The advantage of a constant surface density is to contribute to conferring on the tread a quasi-cylindrical geometry, with a so-called "daisy effect" effect reduced compared to other tires of the state of the art.
[090] However, in certain embodiments, the surface density of the carrier portions may be variable in the circumferential direction and / or in the axial direction, that is to say that the distribution of the carrier portions is not necessarily uniformly circumferentially and / or axially, from which the introduction of the characteristic of average density D of carrier portions.
[091] The surface density D of the carrier portions, expressed in 1 / m 2, is advantageously at least 3 * (S / SE) * Z / (A * Fr). A higher surface density of carrier portions improves the homogenization of pressures in the ground contact area and ensures a higher safety factor with respect to the load applied and endurance.
[092] The surface density D of the carrier portions, expressed in 1 / m 2, is even more advantageously at least equal to 6 * (S / SE) * Z / (A * Fr). An even higher surface density of carrier portions further improves the homogenization of the pressures in the ground contact area and further increases the safety factor with respect to the applied load and with respect to endurance.
[093] The average surface density D of the carrier portions, expressed in 1 / m 2, is advantageously at least 5000.
[094] In some embodiments, the surface SE is substantially equal to the surface S, that is to say that the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first structure of revolution radially outer first fabric or knit completely covers the face radially interior of the summit revolution structure. Under these conditions, the average surface density D of the minimum carrier portions is equal to Z / (A * Fr).
[095] In other embodiments, SE is different from S and even SE <S. Indeed, the first impregnated woven or knitted structure is not necessarily continuous (axially and / or circumferentially) and may consist of juxtaposed portions of fabric or knit: in this case, the surface SE is the sum of the connecting surfaces between the outer faces of the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer revolution structure (which are the outer faces of the first layer) and the radially inner face of the crown revolution structure. Thus, when SE <S, the first impregnated woven or knitted structure forming the first radially outer first fabric or knit revolution structure does not completely cover, that is to say covers only partially, the radially inner face of the structure of summit revolution.
[096] This design advantageously allows to have an assembly that can be manufactured independently and integrated in one piece during the manufacture of the tire. The assembly used may be secured to other elements of the tire by vulcanization, bonding or any other method of bonding the first and second layers of the first and second polymeric compositions.
[097] The first radially outer fabric or knit and the second radially inner fabric or knit serve as interfaces between the carrier elements and the respectively radially outer and radially inner revolution structures which are therefore not in direct contact.
[098] With the tire described, there is an improved flattening of the tread, particularly in a meridian plane, by increasing meridian radii of curvature at the axial ends of the tread.
[099] This results, in particular, a homogenization of the pressures in the ground contact area, which contributes to an increase in the wear life and adhesion of the tire.
There is also an increase in the natural frequencies of vibration of the tire, which contributes to improving the vibratory and acoustic comfort of the tire.
Finally, the rolling resistance of such a tire is substantially reduced, which is favorable to a decrease in the fuel consumption of the vehicle.
Mounted according to the invention The invention also relates to a mounted assembly comprising a tire as defined above mounted on a mounting means of the assembly mounted on a vehicle.
The mounting means is for example a rim. Preferably, the mounting means comprises a face cooperating with an external face of the assembly according to the invention. The two cooperating faces are held in contact with each other, for example by gluing or by the pressure forces resulting from the inflation of the tire.
[0105] The method of manufacturing according to the invention [0106] The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a tire, wherein: - is wrapped around a cylinder making substantially of revolution about an axis of revolution a set as defined above; and radially away from the axis of revolution at least one of the first and second woven or knitted structures impregnated so as to break the sacrificial means of temporary retention.
Thus, when spacing at least one of the first and second woven or knitted structures impregnated relative to the axis of revolution, the sacrificial means breaks and allows the carrier elements to ensure the wearing of the load applied to the tire.
In one embodiment, the tire comprises: a first structure of revolution formed by the first impregnated woven or knitted structure; a second revolution structure formed by the second impregnated woven or knitted structure arranged radially inside the first revolution structure; an inner annular space delimited by an inner face of the first revolution structure and an inner face of the second revolution structure; two flanks interconnecting each axial end of the first revolution structure and each axial end of the second revolution structure, the two flanks delimiting the inner annular space; the inner annular space forming a closed cavity which can be pressurized by an inflation gas; during the process: - the inner annular space is formed; the inner annular space is deployed in such a way as to break the sacrificial means of temporary retention.
Preferably, to form the inner annular space is joined each flank at each axial end of the first and second structures of revolution so as to form the inner annular space.
Advantageously, it deploys the inner annular space by pressurizing an inflating gas of the inner annular space.
Preferably, after the deployment of the inner annular space, a crown revolution structure is wound radially outside the first revolution structure.

We will now describe a manufacturing method according to the invention with reference to Figures 10A, 10B and 10C.
FIGS. 10A and 10B show the assembly 90 according to the invention. The assembly 90 includes the assembly 24 as well as the temporary holding sacrificial means 62 shown in the unbroken state. The assembly 24 is a commercial product, for example available from the company GIRMES INTERNATIONAL GBMH. In a step of preparing the assembly 90, the first fabric 26 and the second fabric 28 are connected to each other by means 62 and the means 62 are arranged in such a way as to maintain the internal face 42 of the first fabric 26 in contact with the inner face 46 of the second fabric 28. Then, in a step of impregnating the first and second tissues 26, 28, each first and second fabric 26, 28 is impregnated respectively with the first and second polymeric compositions 34, 36 so as to form the first and second strips 33, 35 and to constitute the first and second impregnated woven structures 25, 27.
We then obtain the assembly 90 according to the invention shown in Figure 10A. In FIG. 10A, each sacrificial temporary holding element 82 is stretched so as to hold the first and second fabric 26, 28 relatively to each other without making the assembly 24 collapse in the main general direction first and second tissues 26, 28. Each wire link portion 84 then has a rest length L0. Each carrier wired portion 74 is in a folded or bent state. Each temporary holding sacrificial wire element 82 is arranged to break before the carrier members 32 when the first and second impregnated woven structures 33, 35 are separated from each other.
The wire bonding portions 84 are arranged at an average surface density D 'per unit area of impregnated first woven structure 25, expressed in 1 / m2. Each wire bonding portion 84 has a breaking force Fr ', expressed in N. The surface breaking force Fs' of the wire bond portions 84, and by extension of the temporary holding sacrificial wire elements 82, is then defined by Fs'. = Fr'.D. The surface breaking force Fs of the wired supporting portions 74, and by extension of the carrying elements 32, is defined by Fs = Fr.D in which Fr is the breaking force, at N, of each wired carrier portion 74 and D the density average surface area of the wafer portions 74 per unit area of impregnated first woven structure 25, expressed in 1 / m2. The temporary holding sacrificial wired elements 82 and the wired support elements 32 are arranged such that Fs> Fs'.
In the example of the first embodiment, the wired carrier elements 32 and the temporary holding sacrificial wire elements 82 are individually identical. Each carrier member 32 is made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and has a mean section SP equal to 7 * 10'8 m2 and a breaking stress Fr / SP equal to 470 MPa. The average surface density D of the wafer portions 74 per unit area of the first impregnated woven structure 25 and per unit area of the second impregnated woven structure 27 is 85,000 threads / m2. Fracture forces Fr and Fr 'are equal to 33 N. The average surface density of bonded wire portions 84 per unit area of the first impregnated woven structure 25 per unit area of the second impregnated woven structure 27 is equal to 200 threads / m2.
There is a manufacturing cylinder whose diameter is equal to that of the mounting means on which is intended to be mounted the tire 20. The manufacturing cylinder is substantially of revolution about an axis of revolution coaxial with the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20. The assembly 90 of FIG. 10A is wrapped around this assembly cylinder. The assembly 90 according to the invention then forms an axially continuous cylindrical winding around the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20 whose axial width is greater than or equal to 50%, preferably 75% of the axial width of the tire. the tread 58. In this case, the assembly 90 is deposited in a single cylindrical winding turn. This is called laying in full width, since the axial width of the target assembly 90 is obtained in a single round of cylindrical winding. The advantage of full width laying is manufacturing productivity. On the other hand, a laying in full width necessarily implies the existence of at least one overlap zone, or weld, in the circumferential direction, between the circumferential ends of the assembly 20, in particular at the end of winding. The assembly 90 is placed so that the warp wire elements 64, 68 and frame 66, 70, substantially perpendicular to each other, form, with the circumferential direction XX 'of the tire 20, angles A1, A2, A3, A4 substantially equal to 45 °.
Then, the inner annular space 52 is formed. To do this, in the embodiment described, each sidewall 50 is joined to each axial end 44, 48 of the first impregnated woven structure 25 and the second woven structure. impregnated 27 so as to constitute the inner annular space 52.
Then radially away from the axis of revolution of the tire 20 at least one of the first and second impregnated woven structures 25, 27, in this case only the first impregnated woven structure 25. To do this, in the embodiment described, the inner annular space 52 is deployed by pressurizing an inflating gas of the inner annular space 52, for example air. The assembly 90 according to the invention shown in FIG. 10B is then obtained. Each wire link portion 84 then has a length L1> L0. Each wired carrier portion 74 is always in a folded or bent state.
Then, continuing to spread radially away from the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20 at least one of the first and second impregnated woven structures 25, 27, in this case only the first impregnated woven structure 25, the sacrificial means 84 of temporary maintenance are broken. To do this, in the embodiment described, the inner annular space 52 is deployed in such a way as to break the sacrificial means 62 for temporary retention, always by pressurization by the inflation gas. When the pressure is sufficiently high, the sacrificial temporary holding elements 82 are broken without breaking the bearing elements 32 and the breaking length LR of each wire wired portion 84 is then reached, LR being such that LR> L1> L0 and LR = L0 (1 + Ar ') where Ar' is the elongation at break expressed in% of the wire bonding portion 84. The assembly shown in FIG. 10C is then obtained in which the sacrificial means 62 are in a state broken and wherein each carrier wired portion 74 is in a substantially tense state.
When radially spacing at least one of the first and second impregnated woven structures 25, 27 with respect to the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20, generally called conformation, the diameter of the first impregnated woven structure 25 forming the first radially outer revolution structure 25 'of the tire 20, and therefore of the first fabric 26, increases while the diameter of the second impregnated woven structure 27 forming the second radially inner revolution structure 27' of the tire 20, and therefore second fabric 28 remains substantially constant. The radial distance with respect to the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20 of the first fabric 26 increases significantly during the conformation as well as its circumferential length and the angles formed by the warp wire 64 and weft elements 66, with the circumferential direction XX 'of the tire 20, initially equal to 45 °, decrease and become at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 °, after conformation, here equal to B1 = B2 = 38 °. The radial distance with respect to the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20 of the second fabric 28 remains substantially constant during the conformation, its circumferential length does not vary substantially and the angles formed by the warp elements 68 and weft 70 with the circumferential direction XX 'of the tire 20, initially equal to 45 °, remain substantially equal to 45 °, after conformation, here B3 = B4 = 45 °.
Then, the crown revolution structure 55 is wound radially outside the first impregnated woven structure 25 forming the first radially outer revolution structure 25 '.
Then, the inner annular space 52 is depressurized to ambient atmospheric pressure. The tire 20 is then obtained in the green state. Finally, the tire 20 is cured, for example by vulcanization, in order to obtain the tire 20 in the fired state.
FIGS. 11 and 12 show a tire 20 according to a second embodiment. Elements similar to those shown in the preceding figures are designated by identical references.
Unlike the tire according to the first embodiment, in the tire 20 according to the second embodiment, the assembly 24 extends axially discontinuously between the two sides 50 of the tire 20. The assembly 24 extends circumferentially over several revolutions around the axis of revolution YY 'of the tire 20 so as to form a winding of an axially discontinuous assembly strip 92.
Thus, as illustrated in FIG. 12, the assembly 90 is wound around the axis of the tire 20 so as to form a helical winding of an assembly strip 92, the axial portions 94 of the strip 92 being axially juxtaposed. By strip is meant an assembly 90 having a limited axial width, at most equal to 30% of the axial width of the tread 58, and of great length at least equal to twice the circumference of the tread 58, so that the test strip can be stored as a roll. Such a strip is thus unwound in a helix, the axis of revolution being the axis of revolution of the tire 20. The number of helical winding turns of the strip is determined by the total axial width of the helical winding and by the density of carrying elements 32. The laying of the strip may be contiguous, that is to say that the strip portions are in contact two by two by their axial edges, or non-contiguous, that is to say that the axial edges of the strip axial portions 94 are spaced from a substantially non-zero space. The advantage of a striping is the absence of overlapping zones, or welds, in the circumferential direction, between axial strip portions at the end of winding.
In a strip-like design, the bonding surface SE of the outer face 43 of the first impregnated woven structure 25 forming the first radially outer revolution structure 25 'of the radially outer tire 20 with the radially inner face 59 of the crown revolution structure 55 is the sum of the connecting surfaces of the axial portions 94 of strips 92 juxtaposed.
The strip 92 is wound helically around the axis of revolution of the tire 20 so that, prior to conformation, the warp wire 64 and weft 66 of the first fabric 26 extend in a direction forming with the direction. circumferential XX ', respectively an angle A1, A2 at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 ° and so that the warp wire elements 68 and frame 70 of the second radially inner fabric 28 extend in a direction forming , with the main general direction of the second radially inner fabric 28, respectively an angle A3, A4 at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 °. In this case, A1 = A2 = A3 = A4 = 45 °.
As in the first embodiment, after conformation, the angles formed by the warp wire and weft elements 64, with the circumferential direction XX ', initially equal to 45 °, decrease and become at least equal to 10 ° and at most equal to 45 °, after conformation, here equal to B1 = B2 = 38 °. The angles formed by the warp wire elements 68 and weft 70 with the circumferential direction XX 'of the tire 20, initially equal to 45 °, remain substantially equal to 45 °.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments described above.
An embodiment may be envisaged in which the temporary holding sacrificial means is different from a wire element. For example, it may be envisaged that the sacrificial means of temporary retention is an adhesive composition connecting the first and second tissues with each other by points of this adhesive composition.
As a variant, each sacrificial wired element of temporary support could obviously be different from the wired elements carrying. Thus, for example, one could have carrier wire elements made of PET and sacrificial wire elements made of cotton.
It may also be imagined that the step in which the first fabric and the second fabric are connected to one another by means of the sacrificial means of temporary retention and the sacrificial means of temporary retention are arranged so as to maintain the internal face of the first tissue in contact with the inner face of the second tissue is made after impregnating each first and second tissue respectively by the first second compositions.
In the example described above, the connection portion of each sacrificial temporary holding element breaks when the first and second structures 25, 27 are spaced from one another. One could also imagine a break in the clamping part.
