DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in connection with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0022] It should be noted that, compared with fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles use motors instead of engines, so that the noise of the whole vehicle is reduced, and the influence of tire noise on the noise of the whole vehicle is increased. When the new energy vehicle starts, it reaches the maximum torque instantaneously. Compared with fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles are generally heavier, and the tire load is heavier, so the wear requirement of the tire is higher.

[0023] As background art, with the increasing depletion of oil energy, vehicles gradually develop towards new energy. At the same time, higher requirements are put forward for new energy vehicle tires. Because the new energy vehicle reaches the maximum torque instantaneously when starting, the tire needs to have stronger grip. Therefore, how to improve the grip of the tire has become a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0024] To solve the above problems, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present application provides a new energy vehicle tire, the middle part of the tread is provided with a plurality of mutually parallel longitudinal grooves 110, and the opposite sides of the tread are respectively provided with a plurality of mutually parallel transverse grooves 120. It should be noted that each longitudinal groove 110 extends along the circumferential direction of the tire, and a plurality of longitudinal grooves 110 are distributed along the lateral direction of the tire. Each transverse groove 120 on each side extends along the lateral direction of the tire, and a plurality of transverse grooves 120 on each side are distributed along the circumferential direction of the tire. Each transverse groove 120 is connected with the longitudinal groove 110 on the corresponding side to form a flow guide groove to guide the water flow away from the tread. Figure 2The arrow direction is the water flow direction. Each adjacent two longitudinal grooves 110 form a pattern bar 130. Each adjacent two transverse grooves 120 form a pattern block 140. In this way, the contact area of the tire and the ground can be effectively increased, the instantaneous torque can be better handled, and the tire grip and wear resistance can be improved. A first rigid balancing unit 150 is installed on each pattern block 140. The first rigid balancing unit 150 is used to balance the rigidity of the pattern block 140, and further improve the grip when the instantaneous torque is large. A plurality of water film breaking structures 160 are uniformly formed in the longitudinal grooves 110 along the extension direction. When the vehicle runs on a wet road, the water film breaking structure 160 can prevent the formation of a water film and prevent the tire from slipping, thereby enhancing the tire grip. At least one pattern bar 130 is uniformly provided with a plurality of second rigid balancing units 170 along the extension direction. The second rigid balancing unit 170 is used to balance the rigidity of the pattern bar 130, and can prevent the formation of a water film, increase the contact area of the tire and the ground, and improve the tire grip, wear resistance and driving safety.

[0025] Preferably, the pattern bar 130 located in the middle of the tire is uniformly provided with a plurality of second rigid balancing units 170 along the extension direction, which is used to balance the rigidity of the middle pattern bar 130, and can prevent the formation of a water film on the middle pattern bar 130, increase the contact area of the tire and the ground, and improve the tire grip, wear resistance and driving safety.

[0026] Preferably, the longitudinal grooves 110 are 4, and the pattern bars 130 are 3.

[0027] Preferably, each first rigid balancing unit 150 is a steel strip embedded in the surface of a pattern block 140. The length of each first rigid balancing unit 150 is 20-40 mm, the thickness is 0.1-1.5 mm, and the embedding depth is 1-7 mm, which can effectively balance the rigidity of the pattern block 140, prevent the formation of a water film, and improve the instantaneous grip when the instantaneous torque is large.

[0028] Specifically, in the exemplary embodiment, each second rigid balancing unit 170 includes a pattern rib 171 and a steel sheet 172. The pattern rib 171 is installed on the surface of the pattern bar 130. The steel sheet 172 is embedded in the surface of the pattern bar 130 and is connected with the pattern rib 171, which can effectively balance the rigidity of the pattern bar 130, prevent the formation of a water film, and improve the instantaneous grip when the instantaneous torque is large.

[0029] Preferably, the width of the pattern rib 171 is 1-8 mm, and the inclination angle is 1-5°.

[0030] Preferably, the depth of each water film breaking structure 160 is 0.1mm-1.5mm. Each water film breaking structure 160 is in a "V" shape structure as a whole, including a plurality of equidistantly arranged protrusions and a long protrusion, and has a good water film breaking effect.

[0031] Preferably, the middle part of the tire tread of the new energy vehicle tire has 65-75 first pitches, and the opposite sides of the tire tread each have 70-80 second pitches. The number of the first pitches is 3-5. The number of the second pitches is 3-5. When the tire tread pitches are arranged in the circumferential direction, a multi-level variable pitch arrangement mode is adopted. In this way, the contact area of the tire tread with the ground can be ensured, the grip force can be improved, and the tire noise can be effectively reduced.

[0032] Preferably, the inside of at least one of the pattern strips 130 is uniformly embedded with a plurality of transverse elastic traction strips in 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 stress is the same, the deformation amount is relatively smaller with respect to the tire tread, which can increase the contact area of the tire tread with the ground when stressed, thereby improving the grip force.

[0033] Test results show that the wet skid test result of the new energy vehicle tire provided by the application is 1.69, and the noise test result is 71 decibels, which is suitable for new energy vehicles with higher requirements for tire wear.
