Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A reinforcement structure for a polymer ply includes a plurality of flat woven cords. Each flat woven cord has a width between 0.5 mm and 1.6 mm and a thickness between 0.2 mm and 0.8 mm thereby producing the reinforcement structure with an overall width between 25.0 mm and 26.0 mm. Each flat woven cord includes materials with melting points between 130° C. and 230° C.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A tire comprises: a tread portion; an annular belt structure underlying the tread portion, the annular belt structure including a pair of radially superposed belt plies; and a woven reinforcement structure embedded in an elastomeric substance prior to the assembly of the tire, the woven reinforcement structure having a plurality of flat strips each having warp cords extending in a circumferential direction of the tire and weft cords extending transverse to the circumferential direction, each flat strip having a width between 1.3 mm and 1.6 mm and a thickness between 0.4 mm and 0.6 mm, the woven reinforcement structure having a width between 25 mm and 26 mm, each flat strip including warp cords of aramid, each flat strip having weft cords of nylon, each flat strip having materials with melting points between 130° C. and 175° C.
