[0025] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0026] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the present invention provides a tire crown ply structure, including a crown upper rubber 100, a crown lower rubber 200, a belt layer 300, a tire cushion rubber 600 and a carcass. The belt layer 300 includes a first belt 310, a second belt 320 and a third belt 330 which are stacked from top to bottom, and further includes a buffer layer 400 and a winding belt 500; the buffer layer 400 is disposed between the first belt 310 and the second belt 320, and two winding belts 500 are symmetrically wound around the shoulders of the first belt 310.
[0027] That is, the tire crown ply structure provided by the present invention improves the buffer effect of the tire crown by providing a buffer layer 400 between the first belt 310 and the second belt 320, and prevents shoulder bursting by winding the winding belt 500 around the shoulders of the first belt 310 and cooperating with the buffer layer 400, solving the technical problem that in the prior art, under harsh use environments such as overpressure and overload, all-steel radial tires cannot well withstand the impacts brought by vehicles, goods and harsh road surfaces, and are prone to problems such as crown cracking and shoulder cracking, and improving the service life of the tire.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the upper half of the tire in the vertical direction is composed of the crown upper rubber 100, the crown lower rubber 200, the belt layer 300, the winding belt 500, the nylon wrapper 420, the buffer rubber sheet 410, the belt clamping rubber, the tire cushion rubber 600, and the carcass. It is presented in a stacked manner from top to bottom in the cross-sectional view in the vertical direction. The first belt 310, the second belt 320, and the third belt 330 are stacked from top to bottom, and the buffer layer 400 is arranged between the first belt 310 and the second belt 320 to protect the carcass and the inner liner and withstand external forces. The winding belt 500 is arranged at both ends of the first belt 310 by zero-degree winding. The tire crown is symmetrically arranged with the midline in the horizontal direction in the cross-sectional view. Thus, the crown width can be evenly divided into three sections, namely the crown middle part and the two crown edge parts. The cross-sectional width of the crown upper rubber 100 in the vertical direction is the crown width K. Among the three belts, the second belt 320 has the widest width, and the distances from both ends of it to the midline are equal, both being L. The distance from the starting point of the zero-degree winding belt 500 to the midline is h1, the width of the zero-degree winding belt 500 is c, and the width of the nylon wrapper 420 is b.
[0029] Further, the buffer layer 400 includes the buffer rubber sheet 410 and the nylon wrapper 420. The two nylon wrappers 420 are respectively arranged on both sides of the buffer rubber sheet 410 and are in contact with the buffer rubber sheet 410.
[0030] Specifically, the buffer rubber sheet 410 is arranged in the crown middle part, and the starting points of the nylon wrappers 420 are the two end points of the buffer rubber sheet 410. This enables the two nylon wrappers 420 to be respectively arranged on both sides of the buffer rubber sheet 410 and be in contact with the buffer rubber sheet 410. The buffer rubber sheet 410 is made of rubber material and is used to withstand the pressure in the crown middle part, while the nylon wrapper 420 is made of nylon material and is wound around the crown edge part at zero degree to prevent the shoulder of the tire from bursting.
[0031] Preferably, the cross-sectional width of the crown upper rubber 100 in the vertical direction is K, and the range of the cross-sectional width of the buffer rubber sheet 410 in the vertical direction is from K / 12 to K / 6.
[0032] Specifically, the cross-sectional width of the buffer rubber sheet 410 in the vertical direction is twice the distance from both ends of the buffer rubber sheet 410 to the midline in the cross-sectional view. The distance from the starting point of the nylon wrapper 420 to the midline is h, and the cross-sectional width of the buffer rubber sheet 410 in the vertical direction is 2h. In this embodiment, K / 6 > h > K / 12, so that the buffer rubber sheet 410 will not be too short to lose the buffering effect, nor will it be too long to cause the starting point of the nylon wrapper 420 to deviate from the crown middle part and affect the winding effect.
[0033] Further, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is greater than 1.2 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt 320 in the vertical direction.
[0034] Specifically, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is twice the sum of the distance h from the starting point of the nylon wrapper 420 fitting to the center line and the width b of the nylon wrapper 420, while the cross-sectional width of the second belt layer 320 in the vertical direction is twice the distance L between both ends of the second belt layer 320 and the center line. Therefore, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is more than 1.2 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt layer 320 in the vertical direction, that is, (h + b) / L > 1.2. Thus, it can ensure that the buffer layer 400 can wrap the second belt layer 320 and the third belt layer 330, and extend above the tire cushion gum 600 at both ends of the second belt layer 320 and the third belt layer 330, achieving the effect of strengthening the shoulder strength, effectively preventing shoulder cracks, enhancing the shoulder support force, increasing the rectangular coefficient of the ground contact mark, and improving the tire handling performance.
[0035] Furthermore, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is less than 1.5 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt layer 320 in the vertical direction.
[0036] Specifically, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is twice the sum of the distance h from the starting point of the nylon wrapper 420 fitting to the center line and the width b of the nylon wrapper 420, while the cross-sectional width of the second belt layer 320 in the vertical direction is twice the distance L between both ends of the second belt layer 320 and the center line. Therefore, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is less than 1.5 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt layer 320 in the vertical direction, that is, (h + b) / L > 1.5. Thus, it can prevent the buffer layer 400 from extending too much into the tire shoulder, which is beneficial to the shoulder heat dissipation and can prevent the shoulder from generating too much heat and affecting the fatigue life of the tire.
[0037] Furthermore, the distance between the two winding belt layers 500 is greater than K / 3, and the distance between the two winding belt layers 500 is greater than K / 2.
[0038] Specifically, the distance between the two winding belt layers 500 is twice the distance h1 from the starting point of the zero-degree winding belt layer 500 fitting to the center line. Therefore, the distance between the two winding belt layers 500 is greater than K / 3, that is, h1 > K / 6. Thus, it can ensure that the starting point of the winding belt layer 500 winds around the tire shoulder at the crown edge, preventing the tire shoulder from bursting. And the distance between the two winding belt layers 500 is less than K / 2, that is, h1 < K / 4. Thus, it can ensure that the winding belt layer 500 can completely cover both ends of the first belt layer 310, achieving the effect of strengthening the shoulder strength, effectively preventing shoulder cracks, enhancing the shoulder support force, increasing the rectangular coefficient of the ground contact mark, and improving the tire handling performance.
[0039] Furthermore, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is greater than the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt layers 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt layers 500.
[0040] Specifically, the cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is h + b, and the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is h1 + c. The cross-sectional width of the buffer layer 400 in the vertical direction is greater than the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500, that is, h + b > h1 + c. Thus, it can be ensured that the width of the winding belt bundle 500 is less than the width of the buffer layer 400, and then the winding belt bundle 500 and the nylon wrapper 420 are arranged in a stepped manner on the tread cushion 600. When the nylon wrapper 420 partially covers the upper part of the tread cushion 600, the zero-degree winding belt bundle 500 completely wraps the endpoints of the second belt bundle 320 and does not completely cover the tread cushion 600, which is beneficial to shoulder heat dissipation and prevents excessive heat generation in the shoulder from affecting the fatigue life of the tire.
[0041] Further, the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is greater than 1.1 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt bundle 320 in the vertical direction.
[0042] Specifically, the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is h1 + c. The cross-sectional width of the second belt bundle 320 in the vertical direction is L. The sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is greater than 1.1 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt bundle 320 in the vertical direction, that is, (h1 + c) / L > 1.1. This ensures that the winding belt bundle 500 can completely wrap the two ends of the second belt bundle 320 and the third belt bundle 330, achieving the effect of enhancing the shoulder rigidity.
[0043] Preferably, the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is less than 1.2 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt bundle 320 in the vertical direction.
[0044] Specifically, the sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is h1 + c. The cross-sectional width of the second belt bundle 320 in the vertical direction is L. The sum of the cross-sectional widths of the two winding belt bundles 500 in the vertical direction and the distance between the two winding belt bundles 500 is less than 1.2 times the cross-sectional width of the second belt bundle 320 in the vertical direction, that is, (h1 + c) / L < 1.2. Thus, it is ensured that the width of the winding belt bundle 500 covering the upper part of the wrapper is appropriate and does not overly affect the heat generation in the shoulder.
[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
