Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0076789A1] To secure non-pneumatic tyre (10), radially inner portion (31) thereof is radially contracted onto wheel rim (13). Inner portion (31) may comprise channelled flanges (51-52) on opposed sides of tyre (10). Rings (61) are seated in the channels of flanges (51-52). Segments (63) of the rings (61) are joined at bolted connections (70) allowing contraction of rings (61) and thereby clamping of tyre (10) to rim (13). Alternatively the inner portion of the tyre may have vulcanised thereto a broad metal band formed in segments. Gaps between the segments may be drawn together using bolts, or wedges may be used, to clamp the tyre to the wheel.
