DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this utility model will be more complete and comprehensive, and will fully convey the concept of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. Like reference numerals in the figures denote like or similar structures, and thus their repetitive description will be omitted.

[0022] The words describing positions and directions in the present utility model are all illustrated by taking the attached drawings as examples, but can be changed according to needs, and all changes made are included in the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Referring to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides an economy EV car tire, including a tread layer. First tread blocks 1, second tread blocks 2, third tread blocks 3, fourth tread blocks 4, and fifth tread blocks 5 are formed in sequence on the tread layer. The first tread blocks 1 and the second tread blocks 2 are spaced by a first straight groove 6, the second tread blocks 2 and the third tread blocks 3 are spaced by a second straight groove 7, the third tread blocks 3 and the fourth tread blocks 4 are spaced by a third straight groove 8, and the fourth tread blocks 4 and the fifth tread blocks 5 are spaced by a fourth straight groove 9. Adjacent tread grooves are spaced by straight grooves and are divided into continuous treads under the action of the straight grooves, which is beneficial for new energy vehicles to maintain good steering performance under urban conditions. The four straight-groove treads increase the drainage performance of the wetland, improve safety, and improve the grip performance.

[0024] The total top tread area of the first tread blocks 1, second tread blocks 2, third tread blocks 3, fourth tread blocks 4, and fifth tread blocks 5 accounts for 71% of the circumferential area of the tread layer. The tread grounding area is large, and the area of the grooves is moderately adjusted. While improving the tire grip, the tire can break through the water film and improve safety.

[0025] The treads on the second tread blocks 2 and the third tread blocks 3 are centrosymmetric about the center line of the tire. For the centrosymmetric treads, when the electric vehicle accelerates at high speed and decelerates in a short time, it can avoid uneven wear of the tire, provide stable grip, and can be swapped left and right, improving the economic value and flexibility.

[0026] In one embodiment, the shape of the third tread blocks 3 is a parallelogram. Among them, the parallelogram tread blocks are located in the middle of the tire, which can effectively play a role in gripping, and the parallelogram tread blocks are inclined towards the top, which can stably play a connecting role, avoid the loosening of the tread blocks, and provide stable friction while maintaining a close arrangement.

[0027] In one embodiment, adjacent third tread blocks 3 are spaced by steel sheet patterns 11 with an included angle of 45 degrees with the second straight groove 7. The two adjacent third tread blocks 3 are separated by 45-degree inclined grooves, which can overcome the abnormal wear of the tire caused by the fast start and fast braking reaction of the EV tram. After the center tread is divided, the stress distribution of the rigid tread can be dispersed, and the stress distribution of the tire is uniform after being stressed, and uneven wear will not occur in the middle and later stages of use.

[0028] In one embodiment, a blade pattern 12 is formed on the first tread block 1, with one end communicating with the first straight groove 6 and the other end terminating within the tread of the first tread block 1. The blade pattern 12 is formed on the first tread block 1, dividing the portion of the first tread block 1 near the first straight groove 6 into a surface that can flexibly grip the ground, enabling stable ground gripping during driving.

[0029] In one embodiment, two adjacent first tread blocks 1 are spaced apart by a dividing groove 13. One end of the dividing groove 13 is connected to the first straight groove 6, and the other end communicates with the tire shoulder. The dividing groove 13 can divert the water flow at the top of the first tread block 1 to the tire shoulder, providing good grip.

[0030] In one embodiment, the dividing groove 13 includes a first connecting portion 131 and a second connecting portion 132. The first connecting portion 131 is located on the tire shoulder, and the second connecting portion 132 is located on the tread surface. The first connecting portion 131 is generally V-shaped as a whole, and one end of the second connecting portion 132 is connected. When the tire travels on a waterlogged road surface, the first connecting portion 131 and the second connecting portion 132 can provide good water-breaking ability, break the water film, and improve the grip performance.

[0031] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Without departing from the principles and purposes of the present invention, those of ordinary skill in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention, and all such changes should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
