Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable road noise due to the resonance of air in an air charging portion to be dissolved by dividing the air charging portion formed inside of a rubber tyre by a vibrating membrane so as to form an air layer surrounded by the vibrating membrane and a rim. CONSTITUTION:A low noise wheel is composed of a rubber tyre 1 of hollow toroid form and a rim 3 with a flange restraining the bead portion of the rubber tyre 1. In addition, inside of the rubber tyre 1, an air charging portion 4 is formed, and as well the air charging portion 4 is divided into two chambers by a vibrating membrane 5. An air layer 6 surrounded by the rim 3 and the vibrating membrane 5 is formed. With this arrangement, acoustic wave energy in the air charging portion 4 is converted to motion energy of the vibrating membrane 5 and as well to heat energy so as to restrain resonance in the air charging portion 4. Accordingly, the peak of road noise due to the resonance can be dissolved under high durability without damaging tyre motion performance.
