Abstract

A structurally supported tire includes a ground contacting annular tread portion, an annular shear band and geodesic ply.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A non-pneumatic tire comprising a ground contacting annular tread portion; a shear band; and a reinforcement structure, wherein the reinforcement structure is formed from a reinforced ply strip that is continuously wound from an inner radius to an outer radius to form a plurality of ply spokes, wherein the outer radius is connected to the shearband, and the inner radius is connected to a wheel. 
     
     
         2 . The non-pneumatic tire of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of ply spokes are oriented in the radial direction. 
     
     
         3 . The non-pneumatic tire of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of ply spokes are secured to the rim. 
     
     
         4 . The non-pneumatic tire of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of ply spokes are clamped to the rim. 
     
     
         5 . The non-pneumatic tire of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of ply spokes are secured to a radially inner portion of the shearband. 
     
     
         6 . The non-pneumatic tire of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of ply spokes are preloaded in tension. 
     
     
         7 . The non-pneumatic tire of  claim 1  wherein the plurality of ply spokes are formed of parallel reinforcements.
