20100212791 | ENVIRONMENTALLY RESISTANT ASSEMBLY CONTAINING AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR USE IN A TIRE - An assembly for use in or on a tire. The assembly comprises an electronic device having a body and an adhesive coating on at least the body of the electronic device. The body is at least partially made of a plastic material or a fiber reinforced plastic (FRP). The adhesive coating comprises an imide-based adhesive. The adhesive coating may have a polymer bonding group comprising at least one of natural rubber, butyl rubber, a chlorinated elastomer, polybutadiene, synthetic polyisoprene, or styrene-butadiene rubber or a combination thereof. In one embodiment, the assembly further comprises a first elastomeric layer and a second elastomeric layer. The adhesive coating secures the body to the first and the second elastomeric layers. The first and second elastomeric layers may comprise a butyl-containing compound or natural rubber compound. In one embodiment, the electronic device is a radio frequency identification tag having the body and an antenna. | 08-26-2010 |
20100018628 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A RADIAL AIRCRAFT TIRE - A method of manufacturing a radial aircraft tire which has a casing with a belt reinforcing structure overlying a carcass reinforced with radially extending cord reinforced plies and a tread. The tread has four main grooves extending circumferentially continuously around the tire defining five ribs. The main grooves include two inner main grooves disposed on each side of a central rib Y and two outer main grooves defining a pair of intermediate ribs between inner and outer main grooves and a pair of shoulder ribs, X, Z; in each shoulder region of said tire axially outward of an outer main groove. The invention teaches superior tread wear is achieved when the following relationships are fulfilled when the tread surface of the normally rated inflated tire under rated load contacts with a flat surface: | 01-28-2010 |
