Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of tire treads, and particularly to a tire tread structure. Background Art

[0002] As an environmentally friendly and healthy means of transportation, bicycles are widely used in daily life. As an important part of a bicycle, the performance of the tire directly affects the comfort and safety of cycling. The tread structure of the tire plays a decisive role in the anti-slip and drainage performance of the tire. Although there are various designs of bicycle tire treads on the market currently, there is still room for improvement in enhancing the anti-slip performance.

[0003] Existing bicycle tire treads usually adopt simple strip or block structures. Such structures are prone to slipping on wet and slippery roads. Especially during turning, cyclists may lose control due to insufficient friction between the tire and the ground, thus seriously affecting cycling safety. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to improve the anti-slip performance of the tire, the present utility model provides a tire tread structure.

[0005] The tire tread structure provided by the present utility model adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A tire tread structure, the middle part of the tire tread is set smoothly. The tire tread structure includes a plurality of first treads provided on the tread. The plurality of first treads are respectively located on both sides of the middle part of the tread. Each first tread includes a plurality of first strip structures, and the plurality of first strip structures cover the first tread. The first tread is inclined, and the area of the first tread gradually increases in the extending direction from the middle part of the tread to the side.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, since the middle part of the tread is smooth, it is convenient for cyclists to start smoothly and cycle. The first tread increases the friction between the tire and the ground and enhances the stability during cycling. When the vehicle turns, the gradually increasing area of the first tread increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, thereby improving the anti-slip performance of the tire.

[0008] Preferably, the first strip structures are radially distributed, and the inclination angle is larger closer to the middle part of the tread.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the radially distributed design increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, further enhancing the anti-slip effect of the tire.

[0010] Preferably, the first pattern further includes a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side. The first side, the second side, the third side, and the fourth side are connected in sequence and enclose the area of the first pattern. The first side is away from the middle of the tread. The first pattern inclines from the first side to the third side towards the fourth side.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the tire can be installed in two directions. The first installation direction is that the second side contacts the ground first, and the second installation direction is that the fourth side contacts the ground first. For the two different installation directions, the area where the first pattern contacts the ground first is different, and thus the grip of the tire is different. When installed in the first installation direction, the tire has better grip, greater resistance, and is not easy to slip. When installed in the second installation direction, the riding resistance is small, it is more labor-saving, and it is convenient to increase the speed.

[0012] Preferably, it further includes a plurality of second patterns provided on the tread. The plurality of second patterns are respectively located on both sides of the middle of the tread. The second pattern is composed of a plurality of second strip-shaped structures, and the plurality of second strip-shaped structures are parallel to each other.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the second pattern further improves the anti-slip performance of the tire.

[0014] Preferably, the second strip-shaped structure inclines in the direction in which the first pattern inclines.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined setting makes the second strip-shaped structure form a certain angle with the ground, thereby increasing the friction between the tire and the ground and further improving the anti-slip performance. At the same time, it also helps with drainage, reducing the possibility of a water film forming between the tire and the ground due to accumulated water, and ensuring riding safety.

[0016] Preferably, the first patterns are alternately arranged on both sides of the middle of the tread in sequence, and the second patterns are alternately arranged on both sides of the middle of the tread in sequence. Each first pattern has a corresponding second pattern transversely.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the alternate arrangement can increase the lateral stability of the tire and reduce the possibility of the tire skidding during high-speed driving or sharp turning. In addition, each first pattern has a corresponding second pattern along the straight line in the second direction. This corresponding setting can make the tire more evenly stressed and improve the service life of the tire.

[0018] Preferably, the transverse projections of each first pattern partially overlap.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the linkage between the patterns is increased, so that the tire can disperse the pressure more evenly when stressed, reducing the phenomenon of excessive local wear.

[0020] Preferably, the longitudinal direction from the second side to the fourth side is the first direction a, and the length of the second strip structure along the first direction a gradually decreases.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, during the riding process, when the tire rotates along the first direction, the length of the second strip structure in contact with the ground gradually increases, and thus the grip of the tire gradually increases, improving stability; when the tire rotates against the first direction, the length of the second strip structure in contact with the ground gradually decreases, facilitating the tire to speed up.

[0022] In summary, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. When in use, since the middle of the tread is smooth, it is convenient for the rider to start smoothly and ride. The first pattern increases the friction between the tire and the ground, increasing the stability during the riding process. When the vehicle turns, the gradually increasing area of the first pattern increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, thereby improving the anti-slip performance of the tire.

[0024] 2. The design of the radial distribution increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, further enhancing the anti-slip effect of the tire.

[0025] 3. The setting of the second pattern improves the anti-slip performance of the tire, and the second pattern can balance the friction of the first pattern, making the tire more evenly stressed and improving the service life of the tire. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

For example, a plurality of systems means two or more systems, and a plurality of screen terminals means two or more screen terminals. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the indicated technical features.

[0032] A tire tread pattern structure, referring to Figure 1 , includes a plurality of first patterns 2 provided on the tread 1, and the first patterns 2 are integrally formed with the tire. The middle part of the tread 1 of the tire is provided smoothly, and a plurality of first patterns 2 are respectively provided on both sides of the middle part of the tread 1. The first pattern 2 includes a plurality of first strip-shaped structures 25, and the plurality of first strip-shaped structures 25 cover the first pattern 2. The first pattern 2 is inclined, and the area of the first pattern 2 gradually increases in the extending direction from the middle part of the tread 1 to the side.

[0033] During use, since the middle part of the tread 1 is smooth, it is convenient for the rider to start smoothly and for riding. The first pattern 2 increases the friction between the tire and the ground and increases the stability during the riding process. When the vehicle makes a turn, the gradually increasing area of the first pattern 2 increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, thereby improving the anti-slip performance of the tire.

[0034] Referring to Figure 1 , the first patterns 2 are alternately arranged in sequence on both sides of the middle part of the tread 1, and the horizontal projections of each first pattern 2 partially overlap.

[0035] The alternate arrangement can increase the lateral stability of the tire and reduce the possibility of the tire skidding when driving at high speed or making a sharp turn.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 , the first pattern 2 further includes a first side 21, a second side 22, a third side 23 and a fourth side 24, and the first side 21, the second side 22, the third side 23 and the fourth side 24 are connected in sequence and enclose the area of the first pattern 2.

[0037] Referring toFigure 1 , the first side 21 is away from the middle of the tread 1, and the length direction of the first side 21 extends longitudinally. The second side 22 is an arc, and its center of the circle is away from the first pattern 2. The second side 22 extends obliquely from the first end of the first side 21 towards the middle of the tread 1. The third side 23 extends obliquely from the end of the second side 22 away from the first side 21 towards the middle of the tread 1, and the inclination angle of the third side 23 is greater than that of the second side 22. The fourth side 24 is set in a radian, and it extends from the end of the third side 23 away from the second side 22 towards the second end of the first side 21.

[0038] Refer to Figure 1 , a first direction a is provided, and the first direction a is the longitudinal direction from the second side 22 to the fourth side 24. Both the second side 22 and the fourth side 24 are obliquely arranged along the first direction a. That is to say, the first pattern 2 is inclined towards the direction close to the fourth side 24 from the first side 21 to the third side 23.

[0039] Refer to Figure 1 , the first strip structure 25 is distributed in a radial manner, and the closer it is to the middle of the tread 1, the greater its inclination angle.

[0040] The design of the radial distribution increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, and further enhances the anti-slip effect of the tire.

[0041] Refer to Figure 1 , a partition groove 3 is provided on the tread 1, and the partition groove 3 separates the first pattern 2 into two parts. The partition groove 3 is obliquely arranged, and the partition groove 3 is inclined from the end away from the middle of the tread 1 to the other end along the first direction a. It helps to improve the drainage performance of the tire.

[0042] Refer to Figure 1 , it further includes a second pattern 4, and the second pattern 4 is integrally formed with the tire. There are multiple second patterns 4, and the multiple second patterns 4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the middle of the tread 1. The second patterns 4 are alternately arranged on both sides of the middle of the tread 1 in sequence, and each second pattern 4 corresponds to a first pattern 2 horizontally.

[0043] The second pattern 4 can balance the friction of the first pattern 2, make the tire more uniform when stressed, and improve the service life of the tire.

[0044] Refer to Figure 1 , the second pattern 4 is composed of several strip structures. In this embodiment, there are four second strip structures 41. The four second strip structures 41 are parallel to each other. The second strip structure 41 is obliquely arranged, and it is inclined towards the direction close to the middle of the tread 1 at both ends along the first direction a. The length of the second strip structure 41 along the first direction a gradually decreases.

[0045] The inclined setting makes the second strip structure 41 form a certain angle with the ground, thereby increasing the friction between the tire and the ground and further improving the anti-slip performance. At the same time, it also helps with drainage, reducing the possibility of a water film forming between the tire and the ground due to accumulated water, ensuring riding safety.

[0046] The working principle of this application is as follows: The tire can be installed in two directions. The first installation direction is that the second side 22 contacts the ground first. Installing the tire in this direction, during riding, the tire has better grip, greater resistance, and is not easy to slip.

[0047] The second installation direction is that the fourth side 24 contacts the ground first. Installing the tire in this direction, during riding, the riding resistance is small, it is more labor-saving, and it is convenient to increase the speed.

[0048] During riding, regardless of which installation direction, the smooth setting in the middle of the tire is convenient for riding, and the first pattern 2 and the second pattern 4 cooperate with each other, providing good grip for the tire and ensuring the stability of the riding process. When the vehicle makes a turn, the gradually increasing area of the first pattern 2 increases the contact area and friction between the tire and the ground, thereby improving the anti-slip performance of the tire.

[0049] The embodiments of this specific implementation manner are all preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the protection scope of the present utility model accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
