Pneumatic Tire and Method for Manufacturing the Same

1 . A pneumatic tire, comprising: at least one sensor unit fixed to a tire inner surface via an adhesive layer and comprising a sensor that acquires tire information; a thickness of a release agent detected by an electron microscope at least in a fixing region for the sensor unit being from 0.1 μm to 100 μm.

2 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein adhesive strength of the adhesive layer ranges from 0.4 N/mm 2 to 100 N/mm 2 .

3 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer is made of a cyanoacrylate-based adhesive.

4 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor unit is disposed in an inner side of a ground contact edge in a tire width direction.

5 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor unit is bonded directly to the tire inner surface.

6 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein a base is inserted between the sensor unit and the adhesive layer.

7 . A method for manufacturing a pneumatic tire comprising vulcanizing a green tire by using a bladder comprising a coating layer made of a release agent, the method comprising: in fixing a sensor unit to an inner surface of a tread portion of a vulcanized pneumatic tire, setting a thickness of the release agent detected by an electron microscope at least in a fixing region for the sensor unit to from 0.1 μm to 100 μm, and fixing the sensor unit to the fixing region for the sensor unit via an adhesive layer.

8 . The method for manufacturing a pneumatic tire according to claim 7 , wherein, at a step of forming the coating layer in the bladder, coating time t (hour) and temperature T (° C.) of the coating layer satisfy t≥0.0001T 2 −0.07T+9 and T≤180° C.

9 . A method for manufacturing a pneumatic tire, the method comprising: in fixing a sensor unit to a tire inner surface, irradiating the tire inner surface with a laser to remove a release agent, setting a thickness of the release agent detected by an electron microscope at least in a fixing region for the sensor unit to from 0.1 μm to 100 μm, and fixing the sensor unit to the fixing region for the sensor unit via an adhesive layer.

10 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 2 , wherein the adhesive layer is made of a cyanoacrylate-based adhesive.

11 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 10 , wherein the sensor unit is disposed in an inner side of a ground contact edge in a tire width direction.

12 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 11 , wherein the sensor unit is bonded directly to the tire inner surface.

13 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 11 , wherein a base is inserted between the sensor unit and the adhesive layer.
