Definitions
- the present invention relates to a tire for a motor vehicle having a marking and a particular texture surrounding this marking.
- the sidewalls of tires have a large amount of markings intended to provide technical and legal information or to enable consumers to distinguish the origin of the product.
- EP2204206 discloses a texture present on the outer surface of a tire sidewall. This texture comprises a plurality of strands regularly distributed in this texture.
- US 2008/0283169 discloses a tire of rubber material comprising a flank and a marking formed on this sidewall.
- the marking is arranged in a housing made hollow in the sidewall. This marking is protruding from the bottom of the housing so that it has good visibility on the sidewall of the tire.
- Thread of a tire means a quantity of rubber material defined by side surfaces and by two major surfaces, one of which is intended to come into contact with a roadway when the tire is rolling.
- Standardwall of a tire means a side surface of the tire disposed between the tread of the tire and a bead of the tire.
- Marking on a sidewall of a tire means indications on that side intended to give technical and legal information or to enable consumers to distinguish the origin of the product.
- “Texture” means an organized arrangement of a plurality of elements, all or part of the elements of the arrangement being the repetition of the same basic element, for example, a strand or a lamella.
- “Strand” means a filamentary element whose height is at least equal to twice the diameter of a disc of the same surface as an average section of this strand.
- "Medium section” of a strand means the average of the sections measured at regular intervals from the base of the strand to the top of this strand.
- "Slat” means elongated strands having a length at least twice their height.
- the term "mean width" of a coverslip means the average of the widths measured at regular intervals from the base of the lamella to the top of this lamella.
- the invention relates to a rubber tire comprising a flank and a marking. This marking is disposed in a hollow recess in the sidewall.
- the tire comprises a texture comprising a plurality of strands distributed at a density of at least five strands per square millimeter (mm 2 ), each strand having a mean section of between 0.0007 mm 2 and 0.06 mm 2 and / or said texture comprising a plurality of lamellae substantially parallel to each other, the pitch of the lamellae being at most equal to 0.5 mm, each lamella having an average width of between 0.03 mm and 0.3 mm.
- the texture surrounds all or part of the marking in the housing.
- the texture surrounding the marking, and formed by strands or lamellae brings many advantages. On the one hand, this texture can "trap" all or part of the incident light rays that meet the sidewall. This makes it possible to give a darker appearance around the marking and consequently to improve its contrast and therefore its visibility with respect to the rest of the sidewall. On the other hand, this particular texture makes it possible to obtain a pleasant touch on the side, of the "velvet” type. Finally, the texture used has hydrophobic properties so that the evacuation of water, dust or mud from the housing in which the marking is present is facilitated. The visibility of the marking, in time, on the sidewall of the tire is thus maintained.
- the strands of the texture are flush with the sidewall of the tire.
- these strands extend the sidewall of the tire.
- the overall visual impression of the sidewall of the tire is thus improved.
- the strands of the texture are recessed in the housing.
- the strands of the texture respectively the lamellae of the texture, exceed the sidewall of the tire.
- the emergent parts of the strands, respectively the lamellae of the texture have a certain flexibility because of their great slenderness. When the texture undergoes friction forces, these strands, respectively these lamellae deform by absorbing part of these friction forces. In this way, the marking is protected against wear and ensures greater durability. In addition, the fact that the strands, respectively the lamellae of the texture, protrude beyond the sidewall of the tire, generally improves the tactile effect of the texture.
- a portion of the strands of the texture, or a portion of the lamellae of the texture exceed the sidewall of the tire and another part of these strands, respectively of these lamellae are recessed in the housing.
- FIG. perspective of a sidewall of a tire and a marking present on this flank 2 shows a sectional view along the axis XX of Figure 1, a texture surrounding the marking on the sidewall, according to a first embodiment of the invention
- 3 shows a sectional view along the axis XX of Figure 1, a texture surrounding the marking on the sidewall, according to a second embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 4 represents a sectional view along line XX of FIG.
- FIG. 5 represents the state of the texture of FIG. 4 when the flank undergoes friction forces
- FIG. 6 represents a sectional view along the axis XX of FIG. 1, of a texture surrounding the marking present on the sidewall, according to a fourth embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 7 represents a schematic view of a texture surrounding the marking of FIG. 1 and comprising strands
- FIG. 8 represents a schematic view of a texture surrounding the marking of FIG. 1 and comprising lamellae.
- FIG. 1 shows a sidewall 3 of a tire 1.
- This tire sidewall comprises a marking 5 disposed in a housing 7.
- This housing 7 is recessed in the sidewall.
- the tire further comprises a texture 9 surrounding the marking 5 in the housing.
- the marking is entirely surrounded by the texture 9.
- this marking 5 may be partially surrounded by this texture 9.
- the texture and the marking are here very distinct. Indeed, the texture does not form the marking but surrounds it to improve the visibility of this marking on the sidewall.
- the texture 9 comprises a plurality of strands 11, as shown in Figure 7. In this figure, the strands 11 have a generally conical shape with a section decreasing in the height Hb of these strands.
- the average section of each strand corresponding to the average of sections S measured at regular intervals from the base of the strand, is between 0.0007 mm 2 and 0.06 mm 2 .
- the strands are distributed at a density of at least five strands per square millimeter.
- the texture 9 comprises a plurality of lamellae 13, as shown in FIG. 8.
- the lamellae 13 have a generally triangular section and the average width of each lamella, corresponding to the average widths 1 measured at regular intervals in the height Hl of the blade, is between 0.03 mm and 0.3 mm.
- the lamellae 13 are substantially parallel to each other and the pitch P of the lamellae is at most equal to 0.5 mm.
- the texture 9 comprises a combination of strands 11 and slats 13.
- Figure 2 shows a sectional view of the texture surrounding the marking 5 according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- This texture may comprise strands 11 and / or strips 13.
- the strands 11 of the texture, respectively the strips 13 of the texture are flush here the sidewall 3 of the tire, that is to say that the tops of these strands 11, respectively the apices of these strips 13 are at the same level as the level 6 extending the flank 3 above the housing 7.
- the strands 11 of the texture, respectively the slats 13 of the texture are set back in the housing 7 of the sidewall 3, that is to say that the tops of these strands 11, respectively the tops of these strips 13 are below the level 6 extending the sidewall.
- the strands 11 of the texture, or the strips 13 of the texture protrude from the flank 13 of the pneumatic, that is to say that the tops of these strands 11, respectively the tops of these strips 13 exceed the level 6 extending the sidewall.
- the strands 11 or the lamellae 13 flex, as can be seen in FIG. 5, by absorbing all or part of these friction.
- a portion of the strands 11 of the texture, respectively a portion of the strips 13 of the texture protrude from the sidewall 13 of the tire and another part of these strands 11, respectively of these strips 13 are set back in the housing.
- at least 50% of the strands 11 and 13 respectively of the lamellae exceed the flank 13.
- the marking 5 is shown protruding from the bottom of the housing 7 flush with the side 3.
- the height of the marking 5 may be less than the depth of the housing 7 so that the marking is recessed in the housing 7.
- the sidewall of the tire may comprise other markings not having around them a texture as described in the invention.
- the slats 13 of Figure 8 may be discontinuous. In addition, they may have section differences between them.
