Pneumatic vehicle tire
The invention relates to a pneumatic vehicle tire of radial construction having a tread ( 1 ), a radial carcass, a belt bandage ( 8 ) having at least two belt plies ( 8 a, 8 b ) and having at least one belt bandage ply ( 9 ), which is arranged radially outside the belt, wherein the belt bandage ply comprises cords of at least two multifilament yarns twisted together which are arranged parallel to one another inside the belt bandage ply ( 9 ) and wherein the multifilament yarns are made of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET). At a force of 1.56 cN/dtex the rPET cord ( 10 ) has an elongation of 2% to 5% at 20° C. and an elongation of 6% to 9% at 120° C., the sum of the breaking elongation of the rPET cord ( 10 ) and the heat shrinkage determined at 180° C. at a preload force of 0.01 cN/dtex and a time of exposure of two minutes is greater than 17%, and the rPET cord ( 10 ) has a heat shrinkage determined at 180° C. at a preload force of 0.01 cN/dtex and a time of exposure of two minutes of greater than 2.5%.
1. A pneumatic vehicle tire having a radial construction, the tire comprising:
a tread;
a radial carcass;
a belt bandage having a belt bandage ply of a plurality of plies;
the belt bandage ply comprising a recycled cord of at least two multifilament yarns twisted together and arranged parallel to one another inside the belt bandage ply where the multifilament yarns of the recycled cord comprise recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET);
the recycled cord having an elongation of 2% to 5% at 20° C. and an elongation of 6% to 9% at 120° C. at a force of 1.56 cN/dtex;
a sum of a breaking elongation of the recycled cord ( 10 ) and a heat shrinkage determined at 180° C. at a preload force of 0.01 cN/dtex and a time of exposure of two minutes is greater than 17%;
the recycled cord ( 10 ) has a heat shrinkage determined at 180° C. at a preload force of 0.01 cN/dtex and a time of exposure of two minutes of greater than 2.5%;
the recycled cord is a strength member and has a net stretch in a range from 3% to 6%; and
the recycled cord has an overall fineness between 500 dtex and 3500 dtex and a cord twist between 200 tpm and 650 tpm.
2. The tire of claim 1 , the recycled cord is arranged in the belt bandage ply having a mutual spacing with 80 epdm to 140 epdm.
3. The tire of claim 1 , the recycled cord configured to mitigate temporary deformation of the tire when parked without breaking from shock stresses.
4. The tire of claim 1 , further comprising:
sidewalls;
bead regions having bead cores;
the radial carcass circumferences the bead cores;
an inner layer;
the belt bandage arranged between the radial carcass and the tread; and
a cap ply covers lateral peripheral edges of the belt bandage and comprises the recycled cord.
5. The tire of claim 1 , the rPET of the recycled cord comprising recovered PET material.
6. The tire of claim 1 , the recovered PET material being processed from fiber extruded used PET material.
7. A pneumatic vehicle tire having a radial construction, the tire comprising:
a tread;
a radial carcass;
a belt bandage having a belt bandage ply of a plurality of plies;
the belt bandage ply comprising a recycled cord of at least two multifilament yarns twisted together and arranged parallel to one another inside the belt bandage ply where the multifilament yarns of the recycled cord comprise recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET);
the recycled cord having an elongation of 2% to 5% at 20° C. and an elongation of 6% to 9% at 120° C. at a force of 1.56 cN/dtex;
a sum of a breaking elongation of the recycled cord ( 10 ) and a heat shrinkage determined at 180° C. at a preload force of 0.01 cN/dtex and a time of exposure of two minutes is greater than 17%;
the recycled cord ( 10 ) has a heat shrinkage determined at 180° C. at a preload force of 0.01 cN/dtex and a time of exposure of two minutes of greater than 2.5%;
the recycled cord is a strength member and has a net stretch in a range from 3% to 6%; and
the recycled cord has a cord twist between 200 tpm and 650 tpm; and
the recycled cord has an overall fineness between 500 dtex and 6000 dtex.
