Carcass reinforcement for airplane tire

1. An airplane tire, having an inflation pressure greater than 9 bar and a deflection greater than 30%, comprising:

a tread connected by two sidewalls to two beads, said two beads providing a connection between the tire and a wheel rim, and each of said two beads comprising a bead core, and

a carcass reinforcement comprising at least two inner layers wrapped around said bead core in a direction proceeding from the inside to the outside of said tire to form respectively a turn-up terminating at an end, and at least one outer layer wrapped around said bead core in a direction proceeding from the outside to the inside of said tire, and axially outward, within said sidewall, of any inner layer,

wherein one of said at least two inner layers that is axially nearest said bead core is decoupled for at least a part of its length, in an area adjacent to and radially outward of said bead core, from said turn-ups and carcass reinforcement layers which are axially outward of it, by at least one polymeric bead filler compound, the radially outermost point C of said at least one polymeric bead filler compound being termed a coupling point,

wherein at least one turn-up of one of said at least two inner layers has an end radially outward of said coupling point and is coupled, for at least a part of its length and on both of its faces, to adjacent carcass reinforcement layers,

wherein the end of at least one turn-up of said at least two inner layers is radially inward of said coupling point, and

wherein said at least one turn-up, whose end is radially inward of the coupling point, is decoupled for at least a part of its length and on at least its axially outward face from any other carcass reinforcement layer or from any other turn-up by said at least one polymeric bead filler compound.

2. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the turn-up end radially inward of said coupling point and radially nearest said coupling point is positioned, with respect to the radially innermost point O of said bead core, at a radial distance d 2 max less than or equal to 0.9 times H, H being a radial distance between said coupling point and the radially innermost point O of said bead core.

3. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein the turn-up end, radially inward of said coupling point and radially nearest the radially innermost point O of said bead core, is positioned, with respect to the radially innermost point O of said bead core, at a radial distance d 2 min greater than or equal to the diameter D of a circle circumscribed around a meridian section of said bead core.

4. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein each of said inner and outer carcass reinforcement layers comprises reinforcing elements and the reinforcing elements of the carcass reinforcement layers are made of textile materials.

5. The tire according to claim 4 , wherein the reinforcing elements of the carcass reinforcement layers are of aromatic polyamide, aliphatic polyamide or hybrid type.

6. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one polymeric bead filler compound has a secant modulus of extension at 10% deformation greater than or equal to 3 MPa.

7. The tire according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one polymeric bead filler compound includes at least two polymeric bead filler compounds, at least one of which is adjacent to said bead core.

8. The tire according to claim 7 , wherein only one of said at least two polymeric bead filler compounds is adjacent to and radially outward of said bead core and secant modulus of extension at 10% deformation of said one polymeric bead filler compound adjacent to and radially outward of said bead core is greater than or equal to the secant moduli of extension at 10% deformation of the other polymeric bead filler compounds.

9. An airplane tire, having an inflation pressure greater than 9 bar and a deflection greater than 30%, comprising:

a tread connected by two sidewalls to two beads, said two beads providing a connection between said tire and a wheel rim, and each of said two beads comprising a bead core, and

a carcass reinforcement comprising at least two inner layers wrapped around said bead core in a direction proceeding from the inside to the outside of said tire to form respectively a turn-up terminating at an end, and at least one outer layer wrapped around said bead core in a direction proceeding from the outside to the inside of said tire, and axially outward, within said sidewall, of any inner layer,

wherein one of said at least two inner layers that is axially nearest said bead core is decoupled for at least a part of its length, in an area adjacent to and radially outward of said bead core, from said turn-ups and carcass reinforcement layers which are axially outward of it, by at least one polymeric bead filler compound, the radially outermost point C of said at least one polymeric bead filler compound being termed a coupling point,

wherein said at least one polymeric bead filler compound has a secant modulus of extension at 10% deformation greater than or equal to 3 MPa,

wherein the end of at least one turn-up of said at least two inner layers is radially inward of said coupling point, and

wherein said at least one turn-up, whose end is radially inward of the coupling point, is decoupled for at least a part of its length and on at least its axially outward face from any other carcass reinforcement layer or from any other turn-up by said at least one polymeric bead filler compound.
