Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
223 words
A heavy duty pneumatic radial tire comprising: a pair of bead portions, a carcass extending between said bead portions, a carcass extending between said bead portions and comprised of carcass plies each containing cords substantially arranged in parallel to the axial direction of the tire and covered with a coating rubber, and a belt superimposed about a crown portion of said carcass and composed of at least two belt layers each containing at least one cord helically wound substantially in parallel to the equator of the tire and covered with a coating rubber, said belt comprising a reinforcing laminate having plural reinforcing layers piled one upon the other, each of said reinforcing layers containing the same material and high elasticity cords substantially arranged in parallel to each other and covered with a coating rubber; the cords of the adjoining reinforcing layers being arranged in parallel to each other and a center axis of the cords in one of the reinforcing layers being axially shifted by approximately one-half pitch form that of the other reinforcing layer in a transversely sectional direction of the cord; and a lower face of an upper-side reinforcing layer in said reinforcing laminate always contacting an upper face of a lower-side reinforcing layer in said laminate wherein cords of each reinforcing layer do not penetrate into the other reinforcing layer.
