Tire Tread Ring cribbing

Abstract

This patent is based on the need of a new way of using up tires that are not in use. Using the Tire Tread Ring in a cribbing manor we find that we create a design structure that is very versatile and flexible and at the same time not losing its strength and holding the environment in place where it is used. The Tire Tread Ring Cribbing system is made up of tire parts. What we are using is the Tire Tread Ring and the Tire Sidewalls after they are removed from the Tread Ring. This will create a cribbing system that is interconnected by the use of fasteners to connect the sidewalls and tire tread rings together. This makes a interlocking detainment space which prevents washout for the retaining earth materials that tend to flow. Each interconnected crib of the system divides and hold a quantity of the material safely with in it, the cribbing space. In this way normally unstable material such as loose rocky earth, sand, and gravels can be retained in a relatively steep configuration such as in a retaining wall. This system also allow the tier to fully drained of moisture and water with out having the erosion that is found in other types of cribbing system.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 is an example of a single tire and one tread ring and sidewalls

FIG. 2 is an example of crib members of FIG. 1 stacked in a cribbing for a Levies or breakwater.

FIG. 3, Cribbing for underground structure.

FIG. 4,5,6 Stacked in a Cribbing for a detainment wall.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In FIG. 1. you see (1) tire and the two parts that make up the cribbing. (2) Tread Ring, (3) the Sidewall. That has been removed from the tread ring of the tire. You know longer have a tire but single parts that are used to make a tire.

In FIG. 2, you will see how the crib members are put together to make a cribbing for a retaining wall and a levies or a breakwater structure. (2) Tread Rings (3) Sidewalls and (4) Fasteners. That are use to connect the sidewall to each other and to the tread rings so the unit is all one

In FIG. 3, you see how the Tread Ring Cribbing is use to be structured in a way to make a under ground structure. You will see how (2) Tire Tread Rings are use and how (3) the Sidewalls are used to give it strength and stability of movement and how (4) the fasteners are use to hold it together as one. This is a overhead and front view.

In FIG. 4,5,6, you will see how the crib members are put together to make a cribbing for a retaining wall. (2) Tread Rings (3) Sidewalls and (4) Fasteners. That are use to connect the sidewall to each other and to the tread rings so the unit is all one. FIG. 4 is and overhead view, FIG. 5 is a end view, FIG. 6 is a front view.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The Invention is very simple in detail. It is made up of three parts. Two of the parts are from tires and they are 1 tire tread ring and 2 sidewall that has been removed from the tread ring and then cut to fit over the tread ring. And these parts are all connected with a fastener. The fastener could be make out of stainless steel (but not limited to this). These part are put together in a cribbing manor to make a structure that can be easily filled with filling material. The way this is done is by placing the tread ring beside each other and connecting them with a fastener where the tread rings are hitting each other. Now you take the sidewalls and slip them over the tread rings and fasteners and fastened the sidewall end on the bottom side of the tread ring. This is done on the bottom or first row of tread ring cribs. The first crib may be several tread rings deep. Now for the next row of tread ring cribs or second row. Take new tread rings and put them over the sidewall that are coming out of the first row of tread rings so that they will have the first tread ring row under them. You will see that the center of the new tread ring are over the lower tread ring where the tread rings are fasten together. Now you fasten all the tread rings together like you did on the first row. You fasten them where the tread rings meet together. Now you take the sidewall and slip them over the tread rings like you did in the first row, so that they are going by the sidewall that are coming out of the first row of rings. You fasten them to each other were their sides cross, and the end of the sidewall you fasten that to the bottom ring where ever it will reach. After this row of cribbing is done, to make the next crib row. You do the same thing that was done in putting on the second row of Tire Tread Ring. Repeat again and again for each row of cribbing. This will create a stable structure for a verity of need by using the “Tire Tread Ring Cribbing” system.

Claims

1. A method of retaining or holding soil by forming a cribbing system to construct a interlocking detainment space that prevent washout for retaining earth materials that may tend to flow, by the use of tire parts. The tire parts are consisting of the tread ring and the removed sidewalls that are cut which are used to create a cribbing system that is inter connected by the use of fasteners to hold the tread rings and sidewalls in place.

2. A method according to claim 1 A interconnected crib system that divides and holds a quantity of the material safely within the cribbed space.

3. A method according to claim 1 Normally unstable material of loose rocky earth, sand, and gravel can be retained in relatively steep configurations by creating a crib retaining wall.

4. A method according to claim 1 Such cribbing systems can be used for the building of space for earth sheltered structures.

5. A method according to claim 1 such a cribbing system can be used to create a break water structure.

6. A method according to claim 1 such a cribbing system can be used to reinforce dikes and levies to prevent and control water erosion.
