Abstract

The present invention relates to two or three-ply polyester cords having residual twist in ply yarns in cord which are used as carcass reinforcement in passenger and light truck tires.

Description

HIGH PERFORMANCE POLYESTER TIRE CORDS
Field of the invention
The present invention relates to two or three-ply polyester textile (multifil) cords having residual twist in ply yarns in cord which are used as reinforcement in radial passenger and light truck tires.
Background of the invention
The conventional textile tire reinforcement cords are comprised of pre-twisted yarns (plies) in one direction (Z or S) which are altogether twisted again in opposite direction(cable or cord twist in S or Z direction). In general, those cords have a balanced twisted structure in which yam or ply twists are equal to the cable or cord twist.
In such cord structures, the residual or resultant yarn twist in cords becomes zero due to untwisting during cord or cable twisting in opposite direction. The zero twisted or untwisted ply yarns in cord have loose parallel filament bundles which have open structure.
The main advantage of such a cord structure is its simplicity to produce, and its high breaking
Strength (due to parallel filaments in cord plies. The breaking strength advantage is valid only for greige or undipped cord. After dipping process, such cords are subjected to a significant reduction in breaking strength due to adhesive dip penetration between the interstices (void chanels ) of the filament bundles.
According to US 4,877,073, two-ply nylon 6.6 cord in which the first and second plies (yarns)having different twists from each other, has been proposed as low angle overlay (cap ply), which improves uniformity due to ist high initial extensibility (low modulus). Such cords enable high process expansion during moulding and curing without excessive tight cord formation, but their effectiveness to prevent tire growth under high speed conditions is poor because of their low modulus. Additionally, such cords have asymmetric structure causing non-uniform stress distribution(load sharing) between the cord plies and also have tendency to buckle under axial compression leading to early cord breaks.
According to US 6,959,534, in order to reduce twisting costs, yams(plies) are twisted lower levels than cord twist (resulting internal cord torques) and alternating S and Z twisted cords in tire cord fabric has been proposed to solve curling or tip rise problems in calendered fabric. Based on this patent, yam twist is always less than cord twist and the residual yam(ply) twist is in the same direction with the cord twist leading to high torsional instabilities. In the present invention, yam twist is always higher than cord twist.
Summary of the invention The conventional textile cords which are used as tire reinforcement having balanced ply and cord twists with several hundreds of individual parallel filaments have open ply structures in greige form before dipping process.
As explained before, such cords are subjected to the high level of dip(adhesive) penetration into the interstices between the filaments in each ply of the cord even under high cord tensions applied to the cord during dipping in adhesive(RFL or pre-dip) solution .
Two major drawbacks of such highly dip penetrated cord s are their high bending stiffness and reduced breaking strength after dipping and hot stretching process. The cords having higher bending stiffness are subjected to the filament damage under cyclic tension and compression which results in reduced retained strength. On the other hand, less initial cord strength requires higher cord density(epdm) or thicker cords in carcass layer in order to provide sufficient burst strength in tire. Higher cord densty(epdm) means lower cord-to-cord distance(narrow rivet area) in tire, which has high crack initiating potential between the cords due to high shear stresses under dynamic conditions. On the other hand, thicker cords needs higher rubber gauge giving rise to increased rolling resistance in tire.
The high performance(HP) textile cord structures according to invention comprise a sufficient level of residual ply yam twist in opposite direction of cord twist. In other words, in the preparation step, the ply(yam) twist is higher than that of cord twist but in opposite direction. The major conventional carcass reinforcements in passenger and light truck tires are polyester cords(e.g. PET, PEN).
According to invention, the filament bundles in polyester cord plies are not open (zero twist), but compacted under residual twist and have closed bundle structure.
Detailed description of the invention
During dipping process of such greige cords having compact and closed filament bundles as plies in cord, adhesive dip solution(RFL or predip) can not penetrate into the depth of cord plies, but be accumulated on the cord surface, which results in low bending stiffness after drying and heat-setting steps, which is important for improved fatigue resistance and breaking strength retention.
The residual twist levels in the plies of the textile cords according to the invention are equal to each other but in opposite direction of cord twist (Figure- 1 and Figure-2).
The plies of the high performance textile cords according to the invention have circular (figure-3, 9 and 10, Figure-5 19, 20 and 21) or oval (12 and 13 in figure- 4, 23, 24 and 25 in figure-6)cross-sections instead of cresent shaped (6 and 7 in figures-3 an4 ) or triangular cross-sections of 2and 3-ply conventional cords.
As can be seen from the figures-3, 4, 5 and 6, the circumference of the high performance cords are much higher than that of the conventional cords. In other words, compared to the conventional cords having the same total cord dtex and ply number, the high performance cords have much higher contact surface(adhesive interface) with rubber matrix in tire. Such an increase in contact surface enables more efficient stress transfer between cord plies andrubber matrix under dynamic conditions leading to the enhanced tire durability.
The plies of the high performance cords with residual twist, become more closed and compact during heat- setting process due to their thermal contraction in lateral direction which improves ply stability.
