Tire

Abstract

A tire includes tread having at least one ring-shaped steel belt extending in a circumferential direction of the tire, and a pair of beads having bead filler extending to an outer side of a tire-radial direction of the bead core, in which an electronic component is embedded in a region between a tire-radial direction outside end of the bead filler and a tire-width direction outside end of the steel belt.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A tire comprising:
 tread having at least one ring-shaped steel belt which extends in a circumferential direction of the tire;   a pair of beads having a bead filler which extends to an outer side in a tire-radial direction of a bead core;   a carcass ply which is at least one layer extending from one bead core to another bead core;   an inner liner provided to an inner side in the tire-width direction of the carcass ply; and   side wall rubber provided to an outer side in the tire-width direction of the carcass ply,   wherein an electronic component having at least part thereof covered by a rubber sheet is embedded in a region between a tire-radial direction outside end of the bead filler and a tire-width direction outside end of the steel belt, and   wherein the rubber sheet is formed from rubber of higher modulus than the side wall rubber or the inner liner, and lower modulus than coating rubber of the carcass ply.   
     
     
         2 . The tire according to  claim 1 , further comprising a cap ply at an outer side in the tire-radial direction of the steel belt,
 wherein a tire-width direction outside end of the cap ply extends more to an outer side in the tire-width direction than the tire-width direction outside end of the steel belt, and   wherein the electronic component is embedded in a region between the tire-radial direction outside end of the bead filler and the tire-width direction outside end of the cap ply.   
     
     
         3 . The tire according to  claim 1 , further comprising a side wall which extends between the bead and the tread,
 wherein the electronic component is embedded in a region between a tire-widest part vicinity of the side wall and the tire-radial direction outside end of the bead filler.   
     
     
         4 . The tire according to  claim 3 , wherein the electronic component is embedded in the tire-widest part vicinity of the side wall. 
     
     
         5 . The tire according to  claim 1 , wherein the electronic component is arranged between the carcass ply and the inner liner. 
     
     
         6 . The tire according to  claim 1 , wherein the electronic component is arranged between the carcass ply and the side wall rubber. 
     
     
         7 . The tire according to  claim 1 , wherein the rubber sheet is configured from a short-fiber filler mixed rubber.
