TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a tire pattern structure that can increase drainage and wet ground grounding. BACKGROUND
[0002] In order to make the tire suitable for wet road surface, the common tire used by the vehicle currently has a pattern structure formed on the tire tread, and a plurality of circular arc grooves are provided on the shoulder portion, so as to use the groove structure to assist drainage, so as to increase the driving stability. The prior art tire cannot effectively break water during drainage, which leads to poor stability and easy tire slip.
[0003] In addition, on January 20, 2016, the Chinese invention CN102753363 was announced, which disclosed a two-wheeled vehicle tire including a tread with sipe pattern. The tire includes a tread including a plurality of sipes. The length of the sipe is 1.2 times or less of the width of the surface of the contact area, and at least one sipe has at least one end leading to a groove with a width of 2.5 mm or more and a length of 2.5 and 10 mm in the tread.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0073] Referring to Figures 1 to 4 illustrated, the present application provides a tire with improved wet grip, comprising a tire body 1, a main groove unit 2, a secondary groove unit comprising a first secondary groove 3 and a second secondary groove 4, a shallow groove unit 5, and a fine groove unit 6, wherein:
[0074] The tire body 1 is provided with a circumferential tread portion 11, and two sides of the tread portion 11 are respectively provided with a first side edge 12 and a second side edge 13. The central part of the tread portion 11 defines a tread center line 14, which divides the tread portion 11 into a first tread 15 and a second tread 16 in a width direction X. The first tread 15 and the second tread 16 are respectively divided into five equal parts by four equal division lines, and the eight equal division lines are sequentially defined as a first equal division line 171, a second equal division line 172, a third equal division line 173, and a fourth equal division line 174 from the tread center line 14 towards the first side edge 12 and the second side edge 13, respectively. Figure 4 illustrated), and are respectively divided into five equal parts, and the eight equal division lines are sequentially defined as a first equal division line 171, a second equal division line 172, a third equal division line 173, and a fourth equal division line 174 from the tread center line 14 towards the first side edge 12 and the second side edge 13, respectively. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, taking the center line 14 of the tread as a reference, a plurality of first dividing lines Y1 and second dividing lines Y2 are respectively provided laterally on the first tread 15 and the second tread 16, parallel to the width direction X and perpendicular to the first dividing line 171 to the fourth dividing line 174. Furthermore, the plurality of first dividing lines Y1 on the first tread 15 are offset from the plurality of second dividing lines Y2 on the second tread 16, making the plurality of tread pattern combinations on the first tread 15 and the second tread 16 asymmetrical. In the following description of this embodiment, a single tread pattern combination on the second tread 16 is used, and all dimensional measurements are based on the second dividing line Y2.
[0075] Main trench unit 2, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, with the tread centerline 14 as a reference, multiple main groove units 2 are continuously arranged in a mirror-like manner on the first tread 15 and the second tread 16 of the tire tread portion 11 in the width direction X. The groove width of the main groove unit 2 gradually widens from the tread centerline 14 toward the first side 12 and the second side 13, thereby effectively improving the tire's water drainage and wet contact feel. The area of the main groove unit 2 spanning the first tread 15 or the second tread 16 in the width direction X is between 60% and 90%, with an optimal spanning area of 75%. The area of the main groove unit 2 relative to the area of the first tread 15 or the second tread 16 is between 4% and 8%, with an optimal 8%. The "percentage ratio" refers to the proportion of the tread groove area to the tire tread area. The area of the main groove unit 2 accounts for 2% to 4% of the total area of the tread 11, with the optimal proportion being 4%. Furthermore, the main groove extension line 20 of the main groove unit 2 forms a first angle A1 with the tread centerline 14, which is between 50° and 55°. The main groove extension line 20 originates from one end of the main groove unit 2 (the fourth intersection point D4, as shown below).

[0094] The main groove unit 2, the first secondary groove 3, and the second secondary groove 4 form a claw mark shape, which improves the stability of the ground contact during driving. In particular, the shallow groove unit 5 and the fine line unit 6 connected to the claw mark groove further exhibit the effect of breaking the water film during the drainage process. Thus, the main groove unit 2, the first secondary groove 3, and the second secondary groove 4 form a neat claw mark groove, a progressive pattern design, and a gradually widening groove width, which can achieve rapid drainage and the effect of breaking the water film.
[0095] Therefore, the angle range of the main groove unit 2, the first secondary groove 3, and the second secondary groove 4 with respect to the center line 14 of the tire body 1 can be between 30° and 60°. Depending on the profile shape of the tire body 1, the angle of the main groove unit 2, the first secondary groove 3, and the second secondary groove 4 can be changed to meet the performance of the vehicle at various inclination angles and improve the performance on wet ground.
[0096] The tire of the present application is tested and evaluated in combination with B, P, and M tires on the market. The test items include the first-stage dry ground handling test, the second-stage wet ground handling test, and the third-stage wet ground braking distance test. The test results are shown in Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3, respectively.
[0097] ;
[0098] ;
[0099] ;
[0100] The main groove unit of the present application has a land ratio between 2% and 4% (between 4% and 8% for the first tread 15 or the second tread 16 respectively), the first secondary groove 3 has a land ratio between 2% and 4% (between 4% and 8% for the first tread 15 or the second tread 16 respectively), the second secondary groove 4 has a land ratio between 1% and 2% (between 2% and 4% for the first tread 15 or the second tread 16 respectively). The best land ratio design is verified by the way of hand-carved tire into wet test track, which can improve the wet grip by 20%, improve the handling performance by 20%, and shorten the stopping distance by 3.2 meters compared with the M brand tire.
[0101] Through the evaluation of the above-mentioned actual test results, the tire of the present application is superior to various tires on the market in various test items, so the present application can indeed achieve the effects of increasing the tire drainage and the wet ground contact.
[0102] From the above description of the embodiments, the operation, use and effects of the present application can be fully understood, and the above-described embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and should not limit the scope of the present application. Any simple equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the claims and the content of the present application should be within the scope of the present application.
