  • Tire Maintenance Manual
    TIRE MAINTENANCE MANUAL To The Owner/Operator Off-the-road tires are expensive pieces of equipment They are engineered and built with massive strength to support today’s equipment. This equipment is carrying ever increasing heavier loads at higher speeds and over longer dis- tances than ever before. Years of research and development have resulted in tires that can offer long service lives under these conditions. High strength carcasses have been developed to offer more load carrying capacity. New, tougher, higher quality components have improved durability. Improved rubber technology has helped to improve carcass durability, tread wear and hazard resistance ability. Still, there is a limit to the abuse and punishment any tire will take. Too many end up on a scrap pile because operators ignore common sense driving and operational practices. Others go out of service prematurely because they were not properly maintained. This manual, based on long term, extensive OTR field experience and practice, is designed to provide the information needed to help achieve maximum service life for both the end user and the equipment manufacturer. If followed, these recommendations will also help lower ton mile or tonne kilometer costs, improve equipment productivity and promote operating profits.

  • Goodyear – Civilian Blimps
    Goodyear – civilian blimps Peter Lobner, 24 August 2021 1. Introduction Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company began their involvement with lighter-than-air (LTA) vehicles in 1912, when the company developed a fabric envelope suitable for use in airships and aerostats. The first blimps manufactured by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company were B-Type blimps ordered by the US Navy in 1917 for convoy escort duty. Goodyear (envelope supplier) and Curtiss Aeroplane (gondola supplier) produced 9 of the 17 B-Type blimps ordered. Goodyear also supplied the envelopes for some of the Navy’s 10 C-Type patrol blimps, which were delivered in 1918, after the end of WW I. Both the B- and C-Type blimps used hydrogen as the lift gas. In 1923, Goodyear teamed with German firm Luftschiffbau Zeppelin and created a new subsidiary, Goodyear Zeppelin Corporation. In June 1925, their Type AD Pilgrim (NC-9A) made its first flight and became Goodyear’s first blimp to use helium lift gas. Pilgrim was certified later in 1925, becoming the first US commercial airship. Goodyear Zeppelin Corporation filed a patent application for a nonrigid airship in September 1929, describing the objectives of their invention as follows: “This invention relates to non-rigid airships, and it has particular relation to the suspension of pilot cars or gondolas from the envelopes of non-rigid airships. The principal object of the invention is to provide a non-rigid airship in which the envelope and the pilot car or engine car are so constructed as to offer the minimum air resistance. Another object of the invention is to provide connections between the envelope and pilot car that are not exposed to the airstream for sustaining the weight of the pilot car, as well as stabilizing it against lateral or longitudinal movement.” 1 In patent Figure 1, the pressurized lift gas envelope (10) contains an air ballonet (12, for adjusting airship buoyancy) and a load suspension system for carrying and distributing the weight of the gondola (11) affixed under the envelope and the thrust loads from the with attached engines.

  • Safety Warnings and Maintenance Information
    SAFETY WARNINGS AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION IMPORTANT SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION The tire industry has long recognized the consumer's role in the regular care and maintenance of their tires. When a tire is replaced is a decision for which the owner of the tire is responsible. The consumer should consider factors to include chronological age, service conditions, maintenance history, storage conditions, visual inspections, and dynamic performance. The consumer should consult a tire service professional with any questions about tire service life. The following information and recommendations are made to aid in assessing the point of maximum service life The Chronological Age of the Tires The chronological age of any tire can be found on the tire sidewall by examining the characters following the symbol "DOT" For tires manufactured after the year 1999, the last four numbers identify the date of manufacture of the tire to the nearest week. The first two of these four numbers identify the week of manufacture (which range from "01" to "52"). The last two numbers identify the year of manufacture (e.g., a tire with the information "DOT XXXXXX0100" was manufactured in the 1 st week of 2000). For tires manufactured prior to the year 2000, three numbers instead of four indicate the date of manufacture. Also, during the early 1990's, CTNA added a triangle ◄))) to the end of the character string to distinguish a tire built in the 1990's from previous decades (e.g., a tire with the information "DOT XXXXXX274 ◄ was manufactured in the 27th week of 1994). THE CHRONOLOGICAL AGE OF THE TIRES Tires are designed and built to provide many thousands of miles of excellent service.

Department of Transportation Docket No. NHTSA-00-6296-// 30 January, 2001 Staff Contact Steven Butcher, Vice President Technical and Standards Rubber Manufacturers Association 1400 K Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20005 I. Introduction The Rubber Manufacturers Association (“RMA”) is a national trade association representing the domestic tire and rubber products manufacturing industry. RMA’s tire industry members include every major U.S. tire manufacturer: Bridgestone/Firestone, Inc., Continental Tire North America Inc., Cooper Tire & Rubber Company, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, Michelin North America, Pirelli Tire North America, and Yokohama Tire Corporation. There are over 1 billion tires in use on our nation’s highways and these manufacturers produce approximately 90 percent of them. They operate 40 manufacturing facilities and employ almost 160,000 people in . this country. Tire design and production involves sophisticated engineering in product design, testing, manufacturing, and analysis. Designing and building today’s complex tires is no simple task.

Department of Mechanical Engineering, June 2015. ADVISOR: Prof. Andrew Rapoff The purpose of this paper is to review how knowledge of aerodynamics improved the performance of Formula 1 racing cars since the beginnings of Formula 1 racing after World War II. Formula 1 racing places each competitive team on a similar level in regulating the cars to be safe while driving above 350 kph. This paper begins with how Formula 1 racing began and how race cars were designed and looked. Then each decade of racing will be discussed and remarks on major advancements and changes in aerodynamics.
