(under subclass 450) Subject matter wherein the pneumatic tire, either by virtue of its reinforcing material or its cross-sectional shape, does not present two mirror image halves when transverse cross-section thereof is longitudinally bisected.
(1) Note. Asymmetry in the breaker or belt structure due to the angular orientation of the cord of the ply or plies therein is not provided for in the subclass.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
209, for a resilient tire having an asymmetric tire tread and subclasses 530 and 534 for pneumatic tires having belt or breaker layers wherein asymmetry may result due to the angular orientation of the cords of the ply or plies in the breaker or belt layers.
