Abstract:
A method of processing a vehicle tyre and a thixotropic balancing substance (251, 261), comprising providing a first amount of the balancing substance (251, 261) to a first circumferential balancing area (250, 260) on an inner side of the vehicle tyre comprising distributing the first amount of the balancing substance on the first balancing area substantially uniformly; and a corresponding apparatus and system. In one embodiment a varnish layer comprising manoparticles (252, 262) is provided on the first circumferential balancing area (250, 260) to increase the movability of the thixotropic balancing substance (251, 261) on the balancing area (250, 260).
Abstract:
The invention relates to automobile tyres or tyre assemblies or parts thereof suitable for being balanced by introduction therein of a thixrotropic balancing gel, wherein surfaces of the tyre or tyre assembly or part thereof which are intended to be in contact with the balancing gel are provided with a surface nanostructure with an average surface roughness in the range of 1-1000 nm. The surface nanostructure will enable the thixotropic balancing gel to move to the location, where it balances the tyre, significantly quicker than if the surface in question did not have the surface nanostructure.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A method of analysing a vehicle wheel comprising a tyre of a predetermined configuration and a thixotropic balancing substance, comprising rotating the vehicle wheel with a predetermined number of revolutions for a period of time, wherein a tread surface of the tyre is pressed in a first contact area against a rotatable drum with a predetermined force, and a first acceleration in the first contact area is measured with a measuring device; rotating another vehicle wheel comprising another tyre of the predetermined configuration with the predetermined number of revolutions for another period of time, the other vehicle wheel being conventionally balanced and having another residual unbalance, wherein another tread surface of the other tyre is pressed in a second contact area against the rotatable drum with the predetermined force, and a second acceleration in the second contact area is measured with the measuring device and if the first acceleration is less than or equal to the second acceleration, determining that the vehicle wheel is balanced. An apparatus, and a system, for analysing a vehicle wheel comprising a tyre of a predetermined configuration and a thixotropic balancing substance according to the method.
