Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tire design, in particular to a low rolling resistance and high wear load-bearing radial tire. Background Art
[0002] In order to reduce fuel consumption, countries around the world continue to set new labeling regulations, emission standards, and tighten market access standards. The development of low rolling resistance tires and core technology research is bound to become a wrestling point for tire companies' future competitiveness. When major OEMs are working on lightweighting vehicles and improving fuel economy, they will inevitably put forward lightweight and low rolling resistance performance requirements for their components - tires. At the same time, in order to improve the economic benefits of transportation, the demand for increasing the wear life of tires has also come along. At present, the main design principles of low rolling resistance tires are: first, reducing the rolling resistance by lightweighting the tire, reducing the use of materials or reducing the pattern depth and tread contact width; second, reducing the hysteresis loss of the rubber compound and optimizing the formula to achieve the effect of reducing rolling resistance.
[0003] The disadvantage of the prior art is that by reducing the use of materials, especially by reducing the pattern depth and the tread contact width, the amount of tread rubber can be quickly reduced, but the service life of the tire will be directly lost. The use of rubber with low hysteresis loss will lead to poor cut resistance of the tire, thus affecting the life of the tire.
[0004] Based on this, a low rolling resistance and high wear load-bearing radial tire is now provided, which can eliminate the disadvantages of the existing device. Summary of the invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a low rolling resistance and high wear load-bearing radial tire to solve the problems in the background technology.

The interior of the tire bead is filled with apex rubber, the relationship of the outer contour of the tire body is h / D ≥ 1.2% and ≤ 5.2%, the radial height difference from the end point of the tread outer contour to the midpoint of the tread outer contour is h, the vertical distance from the widest end point in the belt layer to the ground contact contour is D, the relationship of the inner contour of the tire body is (Gs-h) / Gc ≥ 0.98 and ≤ 1.02, the vertical distance from the end point of the tread outer contour to the inner contour is Gs, and the vertical distance from the midpoint of the tread outer contour to the inner contour is Gc.
[0008] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention also provides the following optional technical solution:
[0009] In an optional solution: there is a widest belt layer in the belt layer along the transverse direction of the tread, and the widest belt layer is the working layer of the finished tire. The expansion rate from the semi-finished product to the finished tire includes the expansion rate Lc at the center position and the expansion rate Le at the end position. The expansion rate Lc at the center position is ≤3%, where Lc is obtained by controlling the circumference of the belt layer fitting drum.
[0010] In an optional solution: the expansion rate Le at the end point position cannot be negative and has a value range of 0-1%, wherein Le is adjusted by designing the cushion rubber and profile rubber in the belt layer.
[0011] In an optional scheme: the expansion rate of the endpoint position Le = (OD-2*h*Wf*Wf / TDW / TDW)-2*Gwt*F / Dwt-1, wherein OD is the outer diameter, h is the radial height difference from the end point of the tread outer contour to the midpoint of the tread outer contour, Wf is the width of the widest beam layer, TDW is the tire running surface width, Gwt is the radial height from the end point of the widest beam layer to the outer contour of the tread, F is the correction factor, and Dwt is the diameter of the middle position of the widest beam layer.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] The present invention takes into account the relationship between the rolling resistance and wear of the tire by starting from the key design elements of the tire. The outer contour of the tire is obtained by controlling the ground contact contour design, and the inner contour design method is to obtain the inner contour of the tire by controlling the vertical distance of the key position. The structural design controls the expansion rate from the semi-finished product to the finished tire, including the expansion rate Lc at the center position and the expansion rate Le at the end position, so as to obtain the design scheme of the low rolling resistance and high wear load-bearing radial tire. Then, through the above test comparison, it can be concluded that the rolling resistance label grade of the low rolling resistance and high wear tire and the ordinary low rolling resistance tire can both reach the EU A grade, but its durability is 23% higher than that of the ordinary low rolling resistance tire. The low rolling resistance and high wear tire described in the present invention can save more fuel and have a longer wear mileage. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
