"textContent": "A non-pneumatic tire for a wheeled tower of an in-field irrigation system has a circular array of hollow cavities within the tire body. In cross-sectional planes lying normally of the rotational axis, each cavity has a circumferentially elongated cross-section of greater circumferential length than radial width. Bulbous and concavely rounded terminuses of each cavity impart a dumbbell shaped cavity profile that omits stress failure points. The cavity width tapers in an axially inward direction toward a midplane of the tire, where the cavity width is narrowest. In use, collapse of the cavity at its narrow midpoint squeezes accumulate mud out from the cavities in self-cleaning fashion. The outer circumference of the tire features sloped areas whose axial measure decreases toward the midplane. In use of the tire, the sloped areas draw mud inwardly toward the midplane and self-fill the ground beneath the tire, and thereby lessening overall rut formation.",
