Generally speaking, the tire bead structure mainly includes the following parts: steel cord, carcass, bead, sidewall, chafing strip, etc. For example, the invention patent with the publication number CN102922956A discloses a tire bead structure, which includes a sidewall part and an inner liner. A steel ring and a triangular rubber strip are arranged at the center of the sidewall part and the inner liner. A carcass and a bead reinforcement layer are sequentially arranged outside the triangular rubber strip; the carcass includes a carcass main body part and a carcass turn-up part. The carcass turn-up part extends from the end of the carcass main body part and has a first turn-up end point. The carcass turn-up part wraps the steel ring and the end of the triangular rubber strip at one end of the steel ring.

[0003] However, when the existing bead structure is continuously used under high pressure for a long time, the bending deformation is large, and the turn-up carcass ply and the chafing strip of the wire at the position near the rim flange area are compressed and deformed, which easily forms stress concentration, resulting in quality problems such as bead void and bead crack in the tire. Therefore, improvement is needed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a bead reinforcement structure, which solves the problems of bead void and bead crack that easily occur in the existing bead structure.

A first steel ring is arranged inside the triangular rubber strip. A carcass is coated outside the triangular rubber strip. A chafing strip is coated outside the carcass. A chafing strip is coated outside the chafing strip. A sidewall rubber is arranged on the side of the chafing strip. The sidewall rubber contacts the end of the triangular rubber strip. A bead reinforcement component is jointly arranged between the sidewall rubber and the chafing strip.

[0006] Preferably, a second steel ring is arranged inside the triangular rubber strip, and the second steel ring contacts the first steel ring. By arranging the second steel ring, the strength of the first steel ring can be increased.

[0007] Preferably, the bead reinforcement component includes a first fiber ply. A second fiber ply is arranged on the surface of the first fiber ply. A rubber sheet is arranged on the surface of the second fiber ply. By arranging the bead reinforcement component, the anti-deformation performance of the tire bead position can be improved, the stress concentration at the carcass turn-up end point can be eliminated from damaging the tire bead, and the overall durability of the bead part can be improved.

[0008] Preferably, the surface of the second fiber cord layer is provided with tooth-shaped protrusions, and the tooth-shaped protrusions are embedded inside the rubber sheet. By providing the tooth-shaped protrusions, the tightness of the combination between the second fiber cord layer and the rubber sheet can be increased.

[0009] Preferably, the first fiber cord layer is in contact with both the chafer gum and the sidewall gum. The first fiber cord layer is used as the outermost layer of the bead reinforcement assembly.

[0010] Preferably, the rubber sheet is in contact with the apex rubber, and the second fiber cord layer is in contact with the wire wrap. The second fiber cord layer is used as the connection layer with the wire wrap.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0012] By adding a bead reinforcement assembly inside the components of the tire, the bead reinforcement assembly is composed of two layers of fiber cord and rubber compound, which is located between the outside of the wire wrap and the sidewall gum. This structure can improve the anti-deformation performance of the tire bead position, eliminate the stress concentration at the anti-turnup end point of the carcass and damage to the tire bead, and improve the overall durability of the bead part. In addition, on the basis of the original one circle of wire bead, an additional circle of wire bead with a smaller size is added, which can further improve the bonding strength between the tire and the wheel hub, and avoid quality problems such as tire bead void and bead crack.
