Abstract

Provided is a pneumatic tire suitable for traveling unsealed roads and capable of maintaining high levels of both traveling performance on unsealed roads and resistance to block damage. Center blocksprovided in a center region of a tread 1 are arranged so as to form a pair sandwiching therebetween an inclined groove extending inclined relative to the tire circumferential direction. Each center block is extended so as to straddle the tire equator from one side of the tire equator to the other side. A notch comprising a first wall and a second wall connected in a V shape in the tread road surface is formed in each center block. The first wall is extended in the tread road surface at an angle of no more than + / -20 DEG relative to the tire circumferential direction and the second wall is extended at an angle of + / -10 DEG relative to the tire width direction. The wall surface angles for both the first wall and the second wall are made greater than the wall surface angle of the wall surfacehaving the notch provided therein.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire suitable as a tire for running on unpaved roads, and more specifically, to a pneumatic tire capable of achieving a high balance between running performance on unpaved roads and damage resistance to blocks. Background technique [0002] In the pneumatic tires used for driving on unpaved roads such as uneven ground, muddy ground, snowy road, sandy ground, and rocky ground, horizontal grooves (Japanese: rag grooves) with many edge components are generally used. Large tread pattern. In such tires, mud, snow, sand, stones, rocks, etc. (hereinafter, collectively referred to as "mud, etc.") on the road surface are bitten to obtain traction performance, and mud, etc. Running performance on unpaved roads (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] However, such tires have the following problems: due to the large groove area, it is difficult to ensure sufficient block rigidity, the block itself cannot s...
