Various environments and technologies surrounding automobiles are changing drastically, such as a shift to Electric Vehicles (EV) and autonomous driving becoming a reality.
To provide a comfortable space inside the vehicle with greater silence, Toyo Tires has developed a new device that effectively reduces resonance in tire cavities (tire cavity noise), which is one source of vehicle interior noise.
The noise heard when driving a car includes airborne ( = pattern noise), which is sound generated from the contact area between the road surface and the tire tread that is transmitted through the air, and structure-borne ( = road noise), which is caused by tire vibrations that is transmitted to the interior of the vehicle via the vehicle axles.
“Tire cavity noise,” or the noise generated by the transmission of resonance phenomenon of the air inside the tire
Tire cavity noise is firstly triggered by tire vibration on road surface.
This vibration then causes the air inside the tire to vibrate = sound.
As a result, interior noise is generated when the air inside the tire resonates and is transmitted into the vehicle.
An uncomfortable noise that occurs in a specific band
Tire cavity noise is one of the interior noises that is generated in the frequency range of approximately 200-250 Hz, depending on tire sizes.
Such as, the bumping sound heard when driving over seams, or the noise heard when driving on rough roads.
Visualization of status of air inside tire which causes noise when vehicles are traveling
Through these visualizations, we have confirmed that air itself has generated “flow in the circumferential direction,” and “flow in the vertical (radial) direction” inside tire.
Device developed using our unique approach to reduce noise by utilizing the flow of air
In addition to the conventional method, Toyo Tires has focused on the fact that air flow is generated inside tire, and incorporated its unique approach to reduce noise by utilizing flow of air inside tire.
Noise reduction has been realized by utilizing the flow of air inside tire. The device has a unique structure combining arch-shaped perforated film and cylindrical foam.
Noise is reduced when passing through the pores.
a) Because friction is generated at the wall faces of the pore when air passes through, the energy of the sound is reduced.
b) Because the sound passed through becomes a vortex, the energy of the sound is reduced.
By utilizing these two mechanisms, noise is reduced by allowing the sound inside tire to pass through the pores in the perforated film.
The arch shape of the perforated film is critical to the noise reduction.
The structure of the perforated film arranged in an arch shape is confirmed to be effective towards noise reduction using air flow inside tire in both circumferential and radial directions.
By arranging hollow-structured cylindrical foam that has a noise-reducing effect, further noise reduction and the arch shape of perforated film is maintained.
In addition to the perforated film, cylindrical foam is arranged, which creates a noise-reducing effect due to its hollow structure.
Because of this, the perforated film maintains the arch shape, which catches the flow of air in both circumferential and radial directions.
The synergistic effect between the perforated film and cylindrical foam further enhances their noise reduction effect.
The arch shape of the perforated film is critical to the noise reduction.
The structure of the perforated film arranged in an arch shape is confirmed to be effective towards noise reduction using air flow inside tire in both circumferential and radial directions.
6-11% noise reduction across the entire range achieved inside the vehicle
We have confirmed the possibility of noise reduction of 6-11% in noise level inside the vehicle across the entire range (even outside the frequency band of tire cavity noise band, 200-250 Hz).
This was especially effective in middle and rear seats.
We will continue to evolve tires through the use of technology while continuing our efforts to attain unique technical innovations to develop products required by the next generation of mobility society.
In September 2017, we became the first company in the industry to present the technology for new “noair”, non-pneumatic tires that can actually be mounted on passenger cars and driven at high speeds.
SHAH ALAM, MARCH 2022: The Malaysian off-roading scene is set to welcome the unveiling of the Toyo Open Country R/T tyre, a new addition to the Toyo Open Country line up of 4×4 & SUV tyres.
Designed specifically to cater for a growing niche of drivers who are looking for more balance out of their off-road tyres, the Open Country R/T is designed not only to offer off-road performance, but also on-road comfort without compromising tread wear life.
This is the result of a hybrid design that combines the best features of the M/T & the A/T tyre patterns into one tyre in order to enhance off road performance while still offering good mileage & lower road noise. The tyre features are explained below
A/T Design
The Open Country R/T tread pattern integrates the Optimized pattern arrangement similar to the Open Country A/T plus. Consisting of block distribution with variable pitch size, L-shaped interlocking blocks & shoulder blocks and sipes, the pattern provides better wear life, prevents irregular wear and offers low noise levels. In addition, step block edges also help improve initial traction as well, providing good on road performance.
M/T Design
For off-road performance, the Open Country R/T also features a few design characteristics from the Open Country M/T that is designed specifically for off road handling and performance. The use of wide shoulder & scallop shoulder lugs and mud craw biting rock in the pattern provides the needed traction on off-road surfaces, as well as the displacement of mud. In addition, the prominent lateral groove design of the tread pattern provides better off-road traction. Stone ejectors are also incorporated in the pattern to assist in the displacement of mud & stones from the tyre.
“The combination of the two features produces a tyre with the robust capability to tackle off-road situations, and the docility required for comfortable on-road travels,” says Masaomi Kono, Vice President, Sales and Marketing of Toyo Tyre Sales And Marketing Malaysia Sdn Bhd . “The hybrid design of the Open Country R/T is definitely an ideal fit to meet the demands of drivers looking for both off-road performance without compromising on-road comfort,”
Tan Song Chye, President/Managing Director of Toyo Tyre Sales And Marketing Malaysia Sdn Bhd, said: “The Open Country R/T tyre is the ideal tyre for those looking for the aggressive off-road looks of the Open Country M/T and the on-road comfort that the Open Country A/T plus offers, all in one tyre. Thanks to the use of Toyo Tires’ in house design technology such as Nano Balance & T-Mode technology, we are able to combine the best features of the M/T & A/T tyre and merge it into one.”
The new Open Country R/T tyres are available in 19 sizes, starting from RM 460 Recommended Retail Price (Peninsular Malaysia).To find out more, visit https://www.toyotires.com.my, or any Toyo Centres and Silverstone Centres throughout Malaysia.
Toyo Tyre Sales and Marketing Malaysia Sdn Bhd is proud to announce the selection of the Proxes CR1 as the Original Equipment tyre for the newly launched Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid Electric, one of the most exciting vehicles to launch in Malaysia for 2022.
With this it will be the sixth vehicle in Toyota’s current line-up that is equipped with Toyo original equipment tyres, after the Toyota Vios, Yaris, Hilux, Alphard & Vellfire, cementing a strong relationship between Toyo & UMW Toyota Motor Sdn Bhd.
The All-New Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid Electric is a new competitor in Malaysia’s growing crossover SUV segment, offering owners a plethora of comfort and safety features, as well as high efficiency with the 4th Generation Toyota Hybrid Electric System.
