Definitions
- the present invention relates to a so-called sidewall-reinforced run-flat tire in which a reinforcing rubber is disposed on a sidewall portion to enhance rigidity, and in particular, the ride comfort is improved by suppressing vibration during traveling.
- the present invention relates to a run-flat tire having improved run-flat durability (durability after puncture, hereinafter may be abbreviated as RF durability).
- a run-flat tire that can safely run for a fixed distance even in a punctured state (when the internal pressure is zero) is provided with a reinforcing rubber on the side wall as in the tires described in Patent Documents 1 to 4, for example. Reinforced, so-called sidewall reinforced type is generally used.
- the run-flat tire has a side reinforcing rubber made of a rubber composition having rigidity higher than that of the surrounding rubber component in the sidewall portion, and has a higher elastic modulus in the load direction than a normal tire.
- radial force variation increases, uniformity may be impaired, and vibration may occur during travel.
- the radial force variation refers to the magnitude of force fluctuation in the tire radial direction (z-axis direction) that occurs while the tire receiving a load makes one revolution at a constant radius.
- RFV the radial force variation
- the inventors of the present invention have been diligently studying how to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the rayon material used for the carcass ply of many run-flat tires is compared with the PET material used for the carcass ply of normal tires. It was found that the heat shrinkage rate was as low as 1/3, which caused variations in the length of the ply cord on the circumference of the product after vulcanization, which caused the deterioration of RFV.
- the carcass ply of the run flat tire has a high temperature around 200 ° C. around the side reinforcing rubber when running at zero internal pressure
- the above-mentioned PET material having poor heat resistance is used for the carcass ply of the run flat tire.
- a sufficient traveling distance cannot be obtained, and a break may occur in a short period of time. Therefore, conventionally, it has been difficult to apply a PET material to a run-flat tire from the viewpoint of maintaining RF durability.
- a particularly strong material to the carcass material of the run flat tire in terms of tire strength. That is, when running on a road surface that has a certain distance or more, such as a pothole or dent, the tire may suddenly receive an excessive vertical force.

- a strong tensile stress is applied in the vicinity (portion surrounded by a broken-line circle in the illustrated example).
- the carcass 2 in the vicinity of the sidewall 8 tends to be subjected to a larger tensile stress by being sandwiched between the road surface and the reinforcing rubber 3, so that the tensile strength of the cord used for the carcass ply becomes a problem particularly in this portion. Therefore, a PET material having a strength per unit dtex of 1.5 to 1.7 times that of rayon is effective for this problem if the carcass ply is not exposed to a high temperature near 200 ° C. .
- an object of the present invention is to provide a run-flat tire that improves riding comfort by suppressing vibration during traveling and that is also excellent in run-flat durability.

リムに装着してない状態のタイヤの重量を測定した。表1には、比較例1のタイヤ重量を100として指数表示してあり、数値が小さいほど、軽量化の観点から好ましい。
各供試タイヤをサイズ7.5Jのリムに装着して、内圧を230MPa充填し、図7に示す、ストライカー形状R=50mm、振り子長さL=1829mm、振り子重量M=81.0kgの振り子型の試験機を用いて、振り子高さhを変化させながら供試タイヤに衝突させる。衝突させることによって、バルジと呼ばれるプライ破断でのサイドのふくれが発生するまでの、振り子高さhを割り出し、そのときの位置エネルギーMghを測定する。
一本の供試タイヤにつき、図7に示すI~Vの5箇所について試験を行い、その平均値を算出した。尚、表1には、比較例1の耐サイドカット性を100として指数表示してあり、数値が大きいほど、耐サイドカット性に優れている。
