194 Pneumatic tire having a body cord insert that reduces the rolling resistance of the tire US09668509 2000-09-22 US06595256B1 2003-07-22 Carolyn W. Bernstorf; Jean-Yea Chen; Jie Jin; Masahiro Takayama; Hidetoshi Yokota
A pneumatic tire includes a body having a plurality of main body cords. The tire includes an upper section above the maximum section width and a lower section below the maximum section width. The modulus of the body cords is configured to be larger in the lower section than in the upper section. This modulus ratio decreases the rolling resistance of the tire. The increased modulus in the lower section is achieved by providing a body cord insert wrapped around the bead core and bead filler. The ends of the body cord insert are disposed against each other so that the entire bead filler is surrounded. The body cord insert extends substantially over the entire lower section of the tire.

199 Apparatus for reducing aerodynamic drag in system for air cooling a high power vacuum tube US298737 1981-09-02 US4442373A 1984-04-10 Robert E. Klein
A high power vacuum tube 10 has a cylindrical body 16 and a plurality of radially extending fins 18. A cylindrical wall 20 is co-axially disposed about the body and the fins, thus defining an air channel between the body and the wall. To cool the tube, air is forced into the channel from an entry port, and leaves the channel through an exit port. The cooling capacity of the system is optimized by contouring the entry and exit ports to minimize aerodynamic drag. In one embodiment, the entry into the channel is flared outward and a cone assembly 42 is provided adjacent the longitudinal end of the body 16 nearest the exit port. This cone assembly thus forms a continuation of the body 16 which tapers to a smaller cross section in the direction of air flow. The cone assembly may be formed of a stack of discs 70 of successively smaller diameter. The exit port, which may have either rigid or flexible sidewalls, has a venturi shape to further reduce drag.
