Airless tire, specifically designed for extraterrestrial vehicles, featuring an optimized shear strip

Abstract

The present invention relates to an airless tire (1) for a vehicle, comprising, radially from the inside out, a carrier structure (2), intended to cooperate with a rim (100) of a wheel (10), a shear strip (3) integral with the carrier structure (2) and a tread (4) integral with the shear strip (3), the shear strip (3) comprising, radially from the inside out, an internal shear membrane (31), a shear structure (32) constituted by a plurality of circumferentially distributed shear elements (32a) and an external shear membrane (33). The internal shear membrane (31) and the external shear membrane (33) of the shear strip (3) comprise a plurality of successive motifs (34, 35) distributed circumferentially around the circumferential perimeter of the corresponding shear membrane (33, 34).
