Filed:

Mar 2, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/798403

Inventors:

Douglas Joseph Shoner - Hawthorne CA 90250

International Classification:

B60C 1706

US Classification:

152157, 152312

Abstract:

A cellular tire liner and air chamber system for pneumatic tires comprising a cellular tire liner interposed between the interior surface of a tire and an air chamber with a substantial portion of the air chamber being essentially vee shaped and an annular interface that extends from the air chamber to the interior surface of the tire and disconnects the sidewall portions of the tire liner from each other.

Abstract:

A cellular tire liner and air chamber system for pneumatic tires comprising a cellular tire liner interposed between the interior surface of a tire and an air chamber with an annular interface that extends from the air chamber to the interior surface of the tire, in the tread area of the tire and disconnects the sidewall portions of the tire liner from each other.

US Patent:

50807374, Jan 14, 1992

Filed:

Apr 4, 1991

Appl. No.:

7/680402

Inventors:

Douglas J. Shoner - Hawthorne CA

International Classification:

B29C 6718
B29L 3000

US Classification:

156113

Abstract:

This invention is a method of filling a tire with a composite-foam to eliminate rapid deflation "blow-outs" and for all practical purposes, eliminate flats. The composite-foam tire filling is comprised of a multiplicity of preconstructed, hollow, pressurized, elastomeric, one-piece, seamless cells bonded together into a configuration whereby substantially all of the exterior cell wall surface of all cells in the composite-foam tire filling, is engaged with portions of exterior cell wall surfaces of surrounding cells. This composite-foam mass is placed inside a tire to provide the tire with a composite-foam filled interior.

B60C 518

US Classification:

152157

Abstract:

This invention is a composite cellular tire insert for insertion into the interior of pneumatic type tires to eliminate flats and blow-outs. The composite cellular tire insert is comprised of a multiplicity of preconstructed, hollow, pressurized, elastomeric, one-piece, seamless cells bonded together into a configuration whereby substantially all of the exterior cell wall surface of all cells in the tire insert, is engaged with portions of exterior cell wall surfaces of surrounding cells thereby providing a cellular tire insert that has substantially no void space or material mass between the cells.
