Definitions
- the present invention relates to a tire with a radial carcass reinforcement, intended to equip heavy vehicles such as trucks, buses, tractors, trailers, etc., and more particularly relates to the crown reinforcement of such a tire.
- the radial carcass reinforcement of the tire in question is radially surmounted by a crown reinforcement comprising several crown plies; in particular a triangulation ply formed of metallic elements oriented relative to the circumferential direction of a large angle between 45 ° and 90 °, said triangulation ply being itself surmounted by two working plies formed of inextensible metallic reinforcement, parallel to each other in each layer and crossed from one layer to the next, making angles between 10 ° and 45 ° with the circumferential direction.
- Said working plies, forming the working reinforcement may also be covered with at least one so-called protective ply and formed of generally metallic and extensible reinforcing elements, called elastic.
- Cables are said to be inextensible when said cables have a relative elongation at most equal to 0.2% under a tensile force equal to 10% of the breaking force.
- Cables are said to be elastic when said cables have a relative elongation at least equal to 4% under a tensile force equal to the breaking load.
- the circumferential direction of the tire is the direction corresponding to the periphery of the tire and defined by the rolling direction of the tire.
- the transverse or axial direction of the tire is parallel to the axis of rotation of the tire.
- the radial direction is a direction intersecting the axis of rotation of the tire and perpendicular to it.
- the axis of rotation of the tire is the axis around which it rotates in normal use.
- a radial or meridian plane is a plane which contains the axis of rotation of the tire.
- the circumferential median plane is a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the tire and which divides the tire into two halves.
- Application JP 59/118 507 in order to avoid separation between crown plies, shows such a reinforcement architecture with a radially outer ply on the one hand formed from high-modulus textile reinforcing elements making with the circumferential direction an angle in absolute value smaller than the angle formed by the elements of the working ply radially on the outside, and on the other hand having an axial width greater than the width of said working ply while remaining less than the width of the radially inner working ply.
- Application JP 03/262 704 describes and shows, for an identical purpose, a solution very close to the previous one as regards the axial widths of the plies and angles of the reinforcing elements of said plies. It further specifies that the radially outermost ply has an elongation at break of at least 5%.
- the document JP 04/055 104 adopting practically the same axial widths of crown plies, recommends the use of aromatic polyester reinforcing elements for the protective mat.
- Patent FR 2 800 672 claims a crown reinforcement architecture in which a ply, called a protection ply, has an axial width comprised between those of the working crown plies , the reinforcing elements of the protective ply being inclined in the same direction as the reinforcing elements of the radially adjacent working ply and making with the circumferential direction an angle greater, at least 5 °, than that of said ply radially adjacent work.

- a cohesive rubber mixture is a rubber mixture that is particularly resistant to cracking.
- a tire as it has just been defined according to the invention that is to say having a crown reinforcement as described makes it possible to further reduce the risks of separation between the edges of the working plies and thus improve the life of the tire, in particular by allowing it to be retreaded.
- the layer P of rubber mixtures makes it possible to obtain a decoupling of said working plies, which in combination with the complementary so-called protective ply leads to an improvement in the resistance to separation between the edges of working plies.
- the width L of the protective ply is such that L 3 ⁇ L ⁇ .
- the protective ply has an axial width less than the axial width of the radially inner working crown ply and is therefore between the axial widths of the two working crown plies.
- the axial width of the radially inner working crown ply is greater than the axial width of the radially outer working crown ply.
- the widths Li and L of the working crown plies advantageously satisfy the relation: L]> L 2 .
- the layer P at the axially outer end of the radially outer working crown ply, has a thickness such that the radial distance d between the two working crown plies, separated by said layer P, verify the relation:
- the distance d is measured from cable to cable, that is to say between the cable of a first working ply and the cable of a second working ply.
- this distance d encompasses the thickness of the layer P and the respective thicknesses of the rubberizing calendering mixtures, radially exterior to the cables of the radially inner working ply and radially inner to the cables of the radially outer ply .
- the radial distance between the two working crown plies, separated by the layer P, being equal to d, at the end of the radially outer working crown ply, the end of the complementary, so-called protective, ply is separated radially from the working apex ply of width Li by the layer P by a distance d ', such that: d ⁇ d' ⁇ d + 4. ⁇ 2 .

- the layer P of rubber mixes advantageously acts as a decoupling layer between the radially inner working ply and the protective ply.
- the same distance d is preferably less than a distance corresponding to the distance d increased by four times the diameter of the reinforcing elements of the radially outer working layer; beyond such a value, the distance d 'could lead to difficulties during retreading operations leading in particular to a risk of damage to the crown reinforcement and therefore to the impossibility of retreading the tire .
- the elimination of the worn tread is usually done up to a thickness relatively close to the crown reinforcement which must consequently comply with maximum radial positioning conditions such that it is not damaged during said elimination. of the worn tread.
- the radial distance between the two working crown plies, separated by the layer P, being equal to d, at the end of the radially outer working crown ply, the end of the ply from work top radially inner is advantageously distant from the complementary, so-called protective, sheet by a distance d ", such that d"> d.
- the layer P of rubber mixes advantageously acts as a decoupling layer between the radially inner working ply and the protective ply, so that the ends of the reinforcing elements of the radially inner working ply are not stressed due to the excessive proximity of the reinforcing elements of the protective ply.

- the axial width D of the layer P between the axially inner end of said layer P and the end of the radially outer working crown ply is such that: 3. ⁇ 2 ⁇ D ⁇ 20. ⁇ 2 .
- Such a relationship defines an engagement zone between the layer P of rubber mixtures and the radially outer working ply.
- Such engagement below a value equal to three times the diameter of the reinforcing elements of the radially outer working ply may not be sufficient to obtain a decoupling of the working plies in particular to obtain a reduction in the stresses at the end of the radially outer working ply.
- a value of this engagement greater than twenty times the diameter of the reinforcing elements of the radially outer working ply can lead to an excessive reduction in the rigidity of the fin.
- the axial width D is greater than five times the diameter of the reinforcing elements of the radially outer working ply.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the reinforcing elements of the protective ply are inclined in the same direction as the reinforcing elements of the radially adjacent working ply making with the direction circumferential an angle ⁇ 3 of the same direction and greater than or equal to the angle ⁇ 2 of the reinforcing elements of said working ply adjacent to the protective ply.
- the angle ⁇ 3 formed by the reinforcing elements of the protective ply with the circumferential direction, is greater than or equal in absolute value to the angle ⁇ 2 of the elements of said working ply radially adjacent to at least minus 5 °.
- the angular difference ⁇ 3 - ⁇ 2 is at most equal to 20 °.

- the addition between working armature and carcass armature of a so-called triangulation ply may be advantageous, said ply being formed of metallic elements strongly inclined relative to the circumferential direction, and preferably having a axial width L 0 less than the width ⁇ of the radially inner working crown ply.
- the protective ply is formed of extensible steel or so-called elastic cables.
- Such metal reinforcing elements of the protective ply advantageously have a relative elongation at least equal to 4% at break.
- the layer P of rubber mixture is such that the modulus of said layer is identical in the different zones of said layer in contact with the calendering of the two working crown plies in contact with it.
- the layer P of rubber mixtures consists of a stack of at least two layers of rubber mixtures Pi and P 2 with respective elasticity modules VL? ⁇ and MP 2 , at 10% elongation advantageously chosen such that MPi> MP 2 , the mixture Pj, radially outermost, being in contact with the radially outermost working crown ply.
- Such an embodiment of the invention allows a reduction in the stresses of the layer of rubber mixture Pj in contact with the radially outer working crown ply with respect to the stresses of the layer of rubber mixture P 2 .
- Such an embodiment further improves the resistance to separation between the ends of the working crown plies.
- the axially outer end of the layer of rubber mixture P 2 is preferably axially inner to the end of the radially inner working crown ply, so as not to degrade the resistance to separation of said end of the radially inner working crown ply.
- the axially inner end of said layer of rubber mix P 2 is advantageously axially outside the axially inner end of the layer of rubber mix Pj.

- the layer of rubber mixture GB is either radially internal to said triangulation ply, either radially, at least partially between, the radially inner working crown ply and the triangulation ply, and therefore advantageously in contact with the radially inner working crown ply and in contact with the triangulation ply, this latter being preferably axially narrower than the radially inner working crown ply.
- Another advantageous embodiment of the invention also provides, in particular for limiting the risks of degradation of tires due to the formation of cracks between the ends of the reinforcing elements of the working plies and to the propagation thereof, at least in each shoulder, a ply of reinforcing elements, advantageously of small diameter, parallel to each other in the ply and forming with the circumferential direction an angle between 70 and 110 °, the axially inner edge of said additional ply being radially adjacent to at least one edge of one of the plies of the crown reinforcement, and the axially outer edge of said additional ply preferably being radially inside the edge of the ply to which the additional ply is adjacent.
- the edge of a sheet is defined as a limited zone of the sheet delimited axially by one end of said sheet.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the reinforcing elements of the additional shoulder ply are said to be of small diameter, compared to the compacted diameter of the metal elements of the working crown plies of the tire, when said compacted diameter is less than 0 , 5 times the compacted diameter of the metallic elements of the working crown plies of the tire.

- the compacted diameter is the measured diameter of a reinforcing element when the constituent wires are in contact with each other.
- the reinforcing elements of the additional ply can be of textile or metallic type.
- the reinforcing elements of said additional tablecloth are metallic; it appears that the tire according to the invention then satisfies another need. Indeed, a tire thus produced makes it possible to limit the risks of degradation due to the generation of heat appearing due to the hysteresis of the elastomers without, moreover, harming the other desired properties of the rubbers or more directly of the tires.
- Said reinforcing elements are then, more preferably, made of steel, steel being recognized as a very good conductor of heat.
- the tire according to the invention allows, by the presence of the additional plies placed at the shoulders, the rapid evacuation towards the exterior surface of the tire of the calories produced during driving. Indeed, the positioning of the additional plies makes it possible to conduct the heat to the flank areas where the rubber mass is less significant and therefore allows a faster evacuation of the calories even if the nature of the rubber is not more favorable to good conduction ; the small thickness in fact allows the heat to be eliminated more quickly the path to be covered being weak from the core of the rubbery mass towards the external surface.
- the tire according to the invention thus makes it possible to reduce the operating temperatures which could lead to a reduction in the life of the tires.
- the additional ply has its axially inner edge adjacent radially to the outside at the edge of the protective ply.
- the additional ply is advantageously in contact with the layer of rubber mixture P which makes it possible to decouple the free ends of the reinforcing elements from the different working plies.
- the axially outer edge of the additional shoulder ply is advantageously axially adjacent to the rubber mix profile, one of the wings of which, as known per se, ensures the junction between the carcass reinforcement and the edges radially innermost crown reinforcement plies, the other wing of which descends into the sidewall.
- the additional ply allows on the one hand to limit the formation and propagation of cracks in the areas of the ends of the reinforcing elements and, on the other hand, to provide protection against the risks associated with shocks on the flank areas.
- the additional ply allows evacuation of the heat generated in the shoulder area.
- the invention also provides for combining all of the different abovementioned embodiments or at least two of them, in particular the use of a layer P of rubber mixtures consisting of a stack of at least two layers of mixtures rubbery Pi and P 2 and / or the use of a layer of rubbery mixture GB and / or the use of a ply of reinforcing elements of small diameter in each shoulder.

- FIG. 1 shows a partial schematic view in meridian section of a tire 1 of dimension 385 / 65.R.22.5 X.
- FIGS. 1 to 5 represent only a half view of the tires which extend symmetrically with respect to the axis XX 'which represents the circumferential median plane, or equatorial plane, of a tire.
- the tire 1 comprises a radial carcass reinforcement composed of a single ply 2 of inextensible metallic cables, that is to say cables having at most equal elongation under a tensile force equal to 10% of the breaking force 0.2%. Said carcass reinforcement is anchored in each bead; said beads are not shown in FIGS. 1 to 5. It is radially on the outside surmounted by a crown reinforcement 3 comprising radially from the inside to the outside:
- a first crown ply 30 called triangulation ply and formed of inextensible metal cables of steel, oriented at an angle 0 , equal in the case described at 50 °,
- a first working crown ply 31 formed of inextensible metal cables of steel making with the circumferential direction an angle ai equal to 18 °, the cables of the triangulation ply 30 and of the first ply of work with the same direction,
- a second working top ply 32 formed of metallic cables identical to those of the first ply 31, and making with the circumferential direction an angle 2 , opposite the angle ai and, in the case shown, equal in absolute value at said angle ai of 18 °, (but may be different from said angle ai),
- a last ply 33 of so-called elastic steel metal cables oriented relative to the circumferential direction of an angle ⁇ 3 in the same direction as the angle ⁇ 2 , but greater in absolute value at said angle ⁇ 2 by 8 ° since it is equal to 26 °, the latter ply being a so-called protective ply.
- the axial width L ⁇ of the first working ply 31 is equal to 0.78 times the maximum axial width S 0 of the average fiber of the carcass reinforcement 2 when the tire is mounted on its service rim and inflated to its pressure recommended, that is to say 280 mm, which is, for a tire of usual shape less than the width of the tread, which is equal, in the case studied, to 286 mm.
- the axial width L 2 of the second working ply 32 is less than the width Li, since it is equal to 212 mm.
- the axial width L 0 of the ply of triangulation 30 is equal to 270 mm, which represents 0.75 S 0 .
- the width L 3 of the protective ply 33 is greater than the width L of the less broad and radially adjacent working ply 32, and equal to 260 mm and therefore less than the width Li.
- the layer P of rubber mixture ensures decoupling between the working ply 31 and the end of the radially outer working ply 32.
- the zone of engagement of the layer P between the two working plies 31 and 32 is defined by its thickness or more precisely the radial distance d between the end of the ply 32 and the ply 31 and by its axial width D of the layer P between the axially inner end of said layer P and the end of the radially outer working crown ply.
- the radial distance d is equal to 2 mm.
- the axial distance D is equal to 10 mm, ie approximately 6 times the diameter ⁇ 2 of the reinforcing elements of the working ply 32, the diameter ⁇ 2 being equal to 1.65 mm.
- the radial distance d ' as defined above as the radial distance between the end of the protective ply 33, and the working crown ply 31 is equal to 3.6 mm and is therefore greater than the distance d and approximately equal to d + ⁇ .
- the distance d " as defined above as being the distance between the end of the radially inner working crown ply 31 and the protective ply, is itself equal to 11.4 mm and therefore much greater than the distance d.
- FIG. 2 represents a schematic view in meridian section of a tire 4, similar to that of FIG. 1 which differs from the latter by the presence of a layer P of rubber mixtures subdivided into two layers Pi, P, the layer Pi being radially external to the layer P 2 and therefore at least in contact with the radially external working ply 32. As for layer P 2 , it is in contact with the radially internal working ply 31.
- the elasticity modules at 10 % elongation of the layers Pi and P 2 respectively MPi and MP 2 , are chosen such that they satisfy the following relation: MPi> MP 2 .
- FIG. 3 represents a schematic view in meridian section of a tire 5, similar to that of FIG. 1 and which differs therefrom by the presence of a layer of rubber mixture GB radially inside the working reinforcement.
- This layer of rubber mixture GB is put in place so that the axially outer end of said layer GB is at a distance from the equatorial plane greater than L ⁇ / 2, Li being the axial width of the first working ply 31.
- the layer GB makes it possible in particular by its radially inner position in contact with the end of the working crown ply 31 to improve the resistance to the propagation of cracks which may appear at the end of the working ply 31.
- FIG. 4 represents a schematic view in meridian section of a tire 6, similar to that of FIG. 1, which further comprises a ply 7 of reinforcing elements, of small diameter, mutually parallel in the ply and oriented radially , the axially inner edge of said additional ply 7 being radially adjacent to at least one edge of the protective ply 33 of the crown reinforcement 3, and the axially outer edge of said additional ply being radially inside the edge of the ply to which the additional ply 7 is adjacent.
- the presence of such an additional ply 7 makes it possible in particular to limit the appearance of cracks between the ends of the reinforcing elements of the working plies in particular by a mechanical protection and thermal protection effect as explained above.
- FIG. 5 represents a schematic view in meridian section of a tire 8, similar to that of FIG. 1 which differs from the latter by a ply 33 ′, said to be of protection, of width L ′, such as L ′ 3 > L ⁇ .
- the protective ply 33 ′ therefore has a width greater than the working ply 31; it is therefore the ply of the widest crown reinforcement.
- the invention advantageously provides that the distance d ′′, defined as being the distance between the end of the radially inner working crown ply and the complementary, so-called protective ply, is greater than d.
- the layer P of rubber mixtures acts then as a decoupling layer between the radially inner working ply and the protective ply, so that the ends of the reinforcing elements of the radially inner working ply are not stressed due to the too close proximity of the reinforcing elements of the protective ply.
- the reinforcing elements advantageously do not penetrate a circle of radius d centered on the end of the reinforcing elements of the radially inner work ply. In Figure 5, the distance d "is shown in the radial direction.
- Tires described according to FIG. 1 have been tested in endurance with the aid of running on vehicles and under high drift stresses in comparison with control tires, having a protective ply narrower than the second working ply and formed of reinforcing elements making with the circumferential direction the same angle as the elements of said working ply.
