[0018] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] It should be noted that compared with fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles use electric motors instead of engines, which reduces the noise of the whole vehicle, so the impact of tire noise on the noise of the whole vehicle increases. When starting, new energy vehicles reach maximum torque instantly. Compared with fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles are generally heavier, the tire load is heavier, and the wear requirements of tires are higher.

[0020] As the background technology shows, with the increasing depletion of petroleum energy, vehicles are gradually developing towards new energy. At the same time, higher requirements are also put forward for tires used in new energy vehicles. Since new energy vehicles reach maximum torque instantly when starting, the tires need to have stronger grip. Therefore, how to improve the grip of tires has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.

[0021] To solve the above problems, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides a tire for new energy vehicles, wherein a plurality of longitudinal grooves 110 arranged in parallel with each other are arranged in the middle of the tread, and a plurality of transverse grooves 120 arranged in parallel with each other are arranged on opposite sides of the tread. It should be noted that each longitudinal groove 110 extends along the circumference of the tire, and the plurality of longitudinal grooves 110 are distributed in the transverse direction of the tire. Each transverse groove 120 on each side extends in the transverse direction of the tire, and the plurality of transverse grooves 120 on each side are distributed in the circumferential direction of the tire. Each transverse groove 120 is connected with the longitudinal groove 110 on the corresponding side to form a guide groove to guide water flow away from the tread. Figure 2The direction of the middle arrow is the direction of water flow. A tread 130 is formed between each two adjacent longitudinal grooves 110. A tread block 140 is formed between each two adjacent transverse grooves 120. In this way, the contact area between the tread and the ground can be effectively increased, and when dealing with a large instantaneous torque, it has a stronger grip and improves the wear resistance of the tire. A first rigid balancing unit 150 is installed on each tread block 140. The first rigid balancing unit 150 is used to balance the rigidity of the tread block 140, and further improve the grip when dealing with a large instantaneous torque. In each longitudinal groove 110, a plurality of water film destruction structures 160 are uniformly formed along its extension direction. When the vehicle is driving on a slippery road, the water film destruction structure 160 can prevent the formation of water film, prevent the tire from slipping, and thus enhance the grip of the tire. At least one tread 130 is uniformly installed with a plurality of second rigid balancing units 170 along the extension direction. The second rigidity balancing unit 170 is used to balance the rigidity of the tread strip 130 and can prevent the formation of water film, increase the contact area between the tread and the ground, and improve the tire's grip, wear resistance and driving safety.

[0022] Preferably, the tread strip 130 located in the middle of the tread is evenly installed with multiple second rigid balancing units 170 along the extension direction, which are used to balance the rigidity of the tread strip 130 in the middle and prevent water film from forming on the tread strip 130 in the middle, thereby increasing the contact area between the tread and the ground and improving the tire's grip, wear resistance and driving safety.

[0023] Preferably, there are four longitudinal grooves 110 and three ribs 130 .

[0024] Preferably, each first rigid balancing unit 150 is a steel bar embedded in the surface of a pattern block 140. Each first rigid balancing unit 150 has a length of 20 mm to 40 mm, a thickness of 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm, and an embedding depth of 1 mm to 7 mm, which can effectively balance the rigidity of the pattern block 140, prevent the formation of water film, and improve instantaneous grip when dealing with large instantaneous torque.

[0025] Specifically, in the exemplary embodiment, each second rigid balancing unit 170 includes a rib 171 and a steel sheet 172. The rib 171 is mounted on the surface of the tread strip 130. The steel sheet 172 is embedded in the surface of the tread strip 130 and connected with the rib 171, which can effectively balance the rigidity of the tread strip 130, prevent the formation of water film, and improve the instantaneous grip when dealing with large instantaneous torque.

[0026] Preferably, the width of the rib 171 is 1 mm-8 mm, and the inclination angle is 1°-5°.

[0027] Preferably, the depth of each water film destroying structure 160 is 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm. Each water film destroying structure 160 is a "V"-shaped structure as a whole, including a plurality of equally spaced protrusions and a long protrusion, and has a good water film destroying effect.

[0028] Preferably, the middle part of the tread of the tire for new energy vehicles has 65-75 first pitches, and the opposite sides of the tread have 70-80 second pitches respectively. The types of the first pitch are 3-5. The types of the second pitch are 3-5. When the tread pitch is arranged along the circumferential direction, a multi-level variable pitch arrangement is adopted. In this way, the contact area between the tread and the ground can be ensured, the grip can be improved, and the tire noise can be effectively reduced.

[0029] Preferably, a plurality of transverse elastic traction strips are uniformly pre-embedded inside at least one tread strip 130 along the extension direction. The elastic coefficient of the plurality of transverse elastic traction strips is greater than the elastic coefficient of the tire tread material. When the forces are the same, the deformation amount is smaller than that of the tread, which can increase the contact area between the tread and the ground when the forces are applied, thereby improving the grip.

[0030] After testing, the wet skid test result of the tire for new energy vehicles provided by the present invention is 1.69, and the noise test result is 71 decibels, which is suitable for new energy vehicles with higher requirements for tire wear.
