Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tires, and in particular to a tire tread structure. Background Art

[0002] Tires, as a key automotive component, directly impact vehicle safety, comfort, and handling. The tread pattern, in particular, has a direct impact on tire performance. Furthermore, in cold winter regions, roads are prone to snow accumulation. Conventional tires experience a significant decrease in grip when exposed to snowy conditions, leading to reduced vehicle stability, handling, and safety.

[0003] In the prior art, areas that often face snowy road conditions are usually equipped with snow tires. Compared with traditional household tires, the tread pattern of snow tires adopts a design with increased pattern depth and width and simplified pattern structure, so as to increase the rigidity of the pattern blocks to increase the friction between the tread and the snow (tire grip).

[0004] However, although the above design improves the handling performance of the tire on snow to a certain extent, in fact, with the gradual development of society, for most areas, the duration of snow on the road is not long (cities will quickly carry out snow removal work), and during and after the snow removal process, the tires will be driven on wet roads and dry roads where the snow has melted. Especially when driving on wet roads, traditional snow tires are very likely to produce a water film between them and the ground, which will greatly reduce the vehicle's handling performance and seriously affect people's driving safety.

The above three designs interact and complement each other, greatly increasing the interaction force between the tread and the driving surface, ensuring that the tire has high handling performance under different road conditions, thereby solving the problem of poor handling performance of snow tires in dry and wet road conditions in the existing technology, and improving the user's driving safety.

[0060] In order to solve the problem of poor handling performance of snow tires in the prior art under dry and wet road conditions, the present application provides a tire tread structure.

[0061] like Figures 1 to 12As shown, the tire tread structure includes a strip-shaped protrusion 1, at least two groups of transverse grooves 2, and a plurality of longitudinal grooves 3. The strip-shaped protrusion 1 is provided on the tire tread and arranged in an annular pattern. The at least two groups of transverse grooves 2 are spaced apart along the tire's width. Each transverse groove group 2 includes a plurality of transverse grooves, which are spaced apart along the tire's circumference. In two adjacent transverse groove groups 2, the transverse grooves in one transverse groove group 2 correspond one-to-one with the transverse grooves in the other transverse groove group 2, and the transverse grooves are arranged at a first angle A1 with the corresponding transverse grooves. The plurality of longitudinal grooves 3 are spaced apart along the tire's width. The longitudinal grooves 3 extend circumferentially and intersect the transverse grooves. The longitudinal grooves 3 and the transverse grooves divide the tread into a plurality of pattern blocks 4, each of which contains a lamellar structure 5.

[0062] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, a tire tread structure comprises a strip-shaped protrusion 1 disposed on the tire tread. The strip-shaped protrusion 1 is arranged in an annular manner. At least two transverse groove groups 2 are spaced apart along the tire's width. Each transverse groove group 2 includes a plurality of transverse grooves, which are spaced apart along the tire's circumference. In two adjacent transverse groove groups 2, the transverse grooves in one transverse groove group 2 correspond one-to-one with the transverse grooves in the other transverse groove group 2. The transverse grooves and the corresponding transverse grooves are arranged at a first angle A1. A plurality of longitudinal grooves 3 are spaced apart along the tire's width. The longitudinal grooves 3 extend along the tire's circumference and penetrate the transverse grooves. The longitudinal grooves 3 and the transverse grooves divide the tread into a plurality of pattern blocks 4, each of which contains a lamellar structure 5. In this way, the strip-shaped protrusions 1 arranged on the outer surface of the tread can actually form a "dark pattern" structure, thereby increasing the tread roughness of the tire, and then comprehensively improving the tire's grip performance under different road conditions (snow, wet roads and dry land), which helps to initially improve the tire's handling performance under different road conditions, and the above-mentioned arrangement of the transverse groove group 2 and the transverse grooves actually forms a "V"-shaped single-direction pattern on the tread, which can improve the tire's drainage and snow removal performance while allowing the tire to "bite" the ground during driving, further improving the tire's grip performance and reducing slippage. At the same time, the sheet structure 5 arranged in the pattern block 4 can cut the snow surface or water film to avoid the formation of a complete medium film between the tread and the driving surface, which leads to a decrease in the friction coefficient of the tread, further improving the grip performance of the tire. The above three designs interact and complement each other, greatly increasing the interaction force between the tread and the driving surface, ensuring that the tire has high handling performance under different road conditions, thereby solving the problem of poor handling performance of snow tires in dry and wet road conditions in the existing technology, and improving the driving safety of users.

[0063] Specifically, there are multiple lamellar structures 5 on each tread block 4, and the multiple lamellar structures 5 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the tire, so that the lamellar structures 5 can improve the cutting area of ​​the lamellar structures 5 while making good balance of the rigidity of the tread block 4.

[0064] In this embodiment, the distance between two adjacent sheet structures 5 is 8 mm to 9 mm.

[0065] Optionally, one end of the transverse groove away from the center plane S of the tire is connected to the side of the tire; and / or, the transverse groove groups 2 are divided into two groups, and the end of the transverse groove in one transverse groove group 2 away from the side is located between the two transverse grooves in the other transverse groove group 2. In this way, on the one hand, the above arrangement allows water and snow in the transverse grooves and longitudinal grooves 3 to move to the ends of the transverse grooves during the rolling process of the tire and eventually be discharged to the side of the tire (outside the tire), further improving the tire's water and snow discharge performance; on the other hand, the "V"-shaped transverse grooves adopt a staggered through-type design, and the single-direction pattern butterfly print at the tire center plane S is optimized to a slightly circular print, further improving the tire's wetland drainage performance.

[0066] In this example, with the center plane S of the tire as the boundary, the tire pattern structure on both sides of the center plane S actually adopts a staggered design (i.e. Figure 1 As shown, by shifting the pattern structure on either side upward or downward by a certain distance, a symmetrical pattern structure can be produced). This staggered design can optimize the tire footprint and improve the wetland drainage performance of the tire.

[0067] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the sheet structure 5 includes a plurality of interconnected straight segments 51 and a plurality of inclined segments 52, wherein the inclined segment 52 is located between two adjacent straight segments 51. The inclined segment 52 is arranged at a second angle A2 with the straight segment 51 so that the distance between two adjacent inclined segments 52 gradually increases. In this way, the above-mentioned design of the sheet structure 5 can form a 3D structural steel sheet to further increase the cutting area of ​​the sheet structure 5, improve the tire's grip performance and water film cutting ability, and also help improve the tire's performance in maneuvers such as cornering, acceleration, and braking. At the same time, compared to the traditional "Z"-shaped steel sheet, the straight segment 51 in this embodiment can form a trapezoidal structure with the two adjacent inclined segments 52 to avoid the corners being too sharp, thereby extending the service life of the sheet structure 5.

[0068] Specifically, the sheet structure 5 is a steel sheet.

[0069] Specifically, at temperatures close to 0°C or lower or in slippery road conditions, a layer of ice or water film is easily formed between the snowy or flooded road surface and the tire. This ice or water film will seriously hinder the tire's grip. The setting of the steel sheet can cut off this ice or water film like a micro blade, and absorb residual moisture through the grooves on its surface and the gaps in the internal grooves, so that the contact surface between the tire and the ground remains dry, increasing the tread friction.

[0070] Specifically, when turning, the sheet-like structure 5 on the shoulder portion can provide additional support to help the vehicle maintain a stable driving posture. When braking, the tortuous sheet-like structure 5 can more effectively transmit the braking force to the ground, shortening the braking distance and improving braking performance.

[0071] Specifically, general snow tire steel sheets are usually set as Z-shaped or wavy steel sheets, which will produce multiple small-angle sharp corners. The design of the sheet structure 5 in this example can eliminate such sharp corners and increase the contact area between the tire and the ground.

[0072] Specifically, the above-mentioned arrangement of the sheet structure 5 also helps to disperse the force on the pattern block 4, so that the wear degree of the pattern block 4 is more uniform, thereby extending the service life of the tire.

[0073] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of longitudinal grooves 3 divide the tread into two shoulder pattern portions 6 and an intermediate pattern portion located between the two shoulder pattern portions 6. The transverse grooves located within the shoulder pattern portion 6 are shoulder transverse grooves 21. The shoulder transverse grooves 21 include a first sub-transverse groove 211 and a second sub-transverse groove 212 that are interconnected. The end of the first sub-transverse groove 211 away from the second sub-transverse groove 212 is connected to the side of the tire. The first sub-transverse groove 211 extends along the width direction of the tire, and the extension direction of the second sub-transverse groove 212 forms a third angle A3 with the width direction of the tire. The third angle A3 satisfies the following: 0°<A3≤15°. The shoulder transverse groove 21 has a length L1, and the first sub-transverse groove 211 has a length L2. The lengths L1 and L2 satisfy the following relationship: 0.3L1≤L2≤0.4L1.

[0074] In this way, when the inclination angle of the shoulder transverse groove 21 is designed to be too large, the edge angle of the pattern block 4 will be too sharp, the overall rigidity of the pattern block 4 located in the shoulder pattern portion 6 will be weak, the sharp edge of the pattern block 4 will be severely damaged during the driving of the vehicle, and the tire will have poor grip when turning. In order to avoid such problems, the above-mentioned shoulder transverse groove 21 is designed to increase the contact area between the shoulder portion and the snow, especially when turning or under the action of lateral force, which helps to improve the lateral grip of the tire and reduce the risk of skidding. At the same time, in addition to enhancing the grip performance on snow, the drainage performance of the shoulder portion is also equally important. The smaller transverse groove angle (i.e., the above-mentioned design of A3) helps to quickly drain water or snow from the tire tread during driving on snow, maintaining effective contact between the tire and the ground.

[0075] Optionally, the third angle A3 satisfies: 4°<A3≤6°.

[0076] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the middle tread portion includes a center tread portion 7 and a crown tread portion 8, at least part of the center tread portion 7 coincides with the center plane S of the tire, the crown tread portion 8 is located between the center tread portion 7 and the shoulder tread portion 6, the transverse groove located in the crown tread portion 8 is the crown transverse groove 22, the crown transverse groove 22 includes a third sub-transverse groove 221, a fourth sub-transverse groove 222 and a fifth sub-transverse groove 223 that are interconnected, the fourth sub-transverse groove 222 is located between the third sub-transverse groove 221 and the fifth sub-transverse groove 223, and the third sub-transverse groove 221 is arranged away from the center plane S of the tire relative to the fifth sub-transverse groove 223. The third sub-transverse groove 221 extends at a fourth angle A4 with the tire width, and the fifth sub-transverse groove 223 extends at a fifth angle A5 with the tire width. The fourth and fifth angles A4 and A5 satisfy the following conditions: 15° < A4 ≤ 30°, and 25° ≤ A5 ≤ 50°. The transverse groove 23 is located within the center tread portion 7 and forms a sixth angle A6 with the tire width. The sixth angle A6 satisfies the following conditions: 25° ≤ A6 ≤ 50°.

[0077] This arrangement helps quickly drain water and snow from the contact area between the tread and the ground when the vehicle is traveling at high speed or encountering deep water or snow, reducing the water film effect and improving the tire's wet handling and safety. Furthermore, the larger center lateral groove angle (i.e., the aforementioned arrangement of A4, A5, and A6) further enhances the tire's handling performance. Through this rational lateral groove layout and angle design, the tire maintains relatively stable handling characteristics at various speeds, reducing safety hazards caused by tire slippage or loss of control.

[0078] Optionally, the fourth angle A4, the fifth angle A5 and the sixth angle A6 satisfy the following: 18°<A4≤23°, 28°≤A5≤32°, 26°≤A6≤32°.

[0079] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the fourth sub-lateral groove 222 is arranged at a fourteenth angle A14 with the circumference of the tire, and the fourteenth angle A14 is 16 degrees. In this way, the above arrangement increases the contact area between the tire and the ground, helps to increase the adhesion of the tire, and makes the tire more stable when driving in snow.

[0080] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, along the direction from the side of the tire to the center plane of the tire, the width of at least a portion of the shoulder transverse grooves 21 gradually increases; and / or the width of at least a portion of the crown transverse grooves 22 gradually increases; and / or the width of the center transverse grooves 23 gradually increases. Thus, along the direction from the center plane S of the tire to the side of the tire, the above arrangement causes the width of the transverse grooves to gradually increase, forming a "funnel"-like structure. This allows snow or water to more effectively enter from the narrow side and then drain from the wide side as the tire rolls. As the width of the transverse grooves increases, their drainage and snow removal area also increases accordingly. This allows the tire to more quickly drain water or snow between the tread and the ground when driving on wet or snowy roads, further reducing the impact of the water film effect on the tire's grip.

[0081] Optionally, a first angle difference A7 is provided between the extension direction of one groove wall of the second sub-transverse groove 212 and the extension direction of the other groove wall, so that the width of the second sub-transverse groove 212 gradually increases, and the first angle difference A7 satisfies: 1°≤A7≤3°; and / or a second angle difference A8 is provided between the extension direction of one groove wall of the third sub-transverse groove 221 and the extension direction of the other groove wall, so that the width of the third sub-transverse groove 221 gradually increases, and the second angle difference A8 satisfies: 1°≤A8≤3°. and / or, a third angular difference A9 is defined between the extension direction of one groove wall and the extension direction of the other groove wall of the fifth sub-transverse groove 223, so that the width of the fifth sub-transverse groove 223 gradually increases, and the third angular difference A9 satisfies the following: 2°≤A9≤4°; and / or, a fourth angular difference A10 is defined between the extension direction of one groove wall and the extension direction of the other groove wall of the central transverse groove 23, so that the width of the central transverse groove 23 gradually increases, and the fourth angular difference A10 satisfies the following: 4°≤A10≤6°. Thus, the above configuration ensures that the widths of the second sub-transverse groove 212, the third sub-transverse groove 221, the fifth sub-transverse groove 223, and the central transverse groove 23 increase to a suitable extent, further improving the drainage speed of accumulated water or snow and ensuring good handling performance of the tire under various road conditions.

[0082] Specifically, the extension direction of one groove wall of the second sub-lateral groove 212 is set at a fifteenth angle A71 with the width direction of the tire, and the extension direction of the other groove wall is set at a sixteenth angle A72 with the width direction of the tire. The value ranges of the fifteenth angle A71 and the sixteenth angle A72 are consistent with the third angle A3, but there is a first angle difference A7 between their specific values.

[0083] Specifically, the extension direction of one groove wall of the third sub-lateral groove 221 is set at a seventeenth angle A81 with the width direction of the tire, and the extension direction of the other groove wall is set at an eighteenth angle A82 with the width direction of the tire. The value ranges of the seventeenth angle A81 and the eighteenth angle A82 are consistent with the fourth angle A4, but there is a second angle difference A8 between their specific values.

[0084] Specifically, the extension direction of one groove wall of the fifth sub-transverse groove 223 is set at a nineteenth angle A91 with the width direction of the tire, and the extension direction of the other groove wall is set at a twentieth angle A92 with the width direction of the tire. The value range of the nineteenth angle A91 and the twentieth angle A92 is consistent with the fifth angle A5, but there is a third angle difference A9 between their specific values.

[0085] Specifically, the extension direction of one groove wall of the central transverse groove 23 is set at a twenty-first angle A101 with the width direction of the tire, and the extension direction of the other groove wall is set at a twenty-second angle A102 with the width direction of the tire. The value range of the twenty-first angle A101 and the twenty-second angle A102 is consistent with the sixth angle A6, but there is a fourth angle difference A10 between their specific values.

[0086] like Figures 5 to 7As shown, the sheet-like structure 5 located within the middle tread portion is a first sheet-like structure 53, which has N first accommodating recesses 531. The bottom of the groove portion for accommodating the first sheet-like structure 53 is provided with N first mating protrusions. At least some of these first mating protrusions are located within the first accommodating recesses 531 and are limited and stopped by the inner wall of the first accommodating recesses 531. Where N satisfies the following: L-15mm≤N·15mm<L, where N is a natural number and L is the length of the first sheet-like structure 53. When N is greater than or equal to 2, the N first accommodating recesses 531 are spaced apart along the length of the first sheet-like structure 53, with the N first mating protrusions corresponding to the N first accommodating recesses 531. In this way, while the first accommodating recess 531 cooperates with the first mating protrusion to improve the assembly stability of the first sheet structure 53, the above-mentioned arrangement enables the specific structure of the first sheet structure 53 (the number of first accommodating recesses 531) to be adjusted accordingly according to the length of the first sheet structure 53 to ensure that the first sheet structure 53 can maintain the rigidity balance of each pattern block 4, thereby increasing the mutual friction between the first sheet structures 53, reducing the tread deformation during tire driving and steering, and greatly improving the steering stability and handling stability of the tire.

[0087] In this embodiment, the overall extension direction of the first sheet structure 53 is set at 30° to the width direction of the tire.

[0088] Table 1

[0089]

[0090] It can be seen from the simulation optimization comparison that when the overall extension direction of the first sheet structure 53 is set at 30° to the width direction of the tire, it has a higher matching performance with the pattern style and rubber formula, and has better comfort and wet performance.

[0091] like Figure 8As shown, the sheet-like structure 5 located on the shoulder tread portion 6 is a second sheet-like structure 54. The second sheet-like structure 54 comprises a main portion 541 and an extension portion 543 connected to each other. The main portion 541 has a second accommodating recess 542. A second mating protrusion is provided at the bottom of the groove portion for accommodating the second sheet-like structure 54. At least a portion of the second mating protrusion is located within the second accommodating recess 542 and is positioned relative to the inner wall of the second accommodating recess 542. The extension portion 543 is at least partially arc-shaped and is located on the side of the main portion 541 away from the tire's center plane S. Thus, while the mutual cooperation between the second accommodating recess 542 and the second mating protrusion improves the assembly stability of the second sheet-like structure 54 and stabilizes its effectiveness, the above-described arrangement of the main portion 541 and the extension portion 543 ensures that the structure of the second sheet-like structure 54 matches that of the shoulder portion, further enhancing its water-cutting effectiveness.

[0092] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the strips 1 are arranged in groups. Within each group, the strips 1 are nested one after another, forming an arc away from the upper surface of the tread. Furthermore, the height H1 of the strips 1 satisfies the following conditions: 0.3 mm ≤ H1 ≤ 1 mm. This arrangement not only increases the surface roughness of the tread (the multiple strips are nested one after another), but also helps extend the service life of the strips.

[0093] In this embodiment, the height H1 of the strip-shaped protrusion 1 is 0.3 mm.

[0094] Specifically, the height setting of the strip protrusion 1 can prevent it from causing adverse effects such as excessive deformation and falling off during driving, and the upper surface of the strip protrusion 1 with a full arc design provides a buffering effect for the protrusion during driving, preventing deformation and falling off, and greatly extending the service life of the strip protrusion 1.

[0095] In this example, the distance between two adjacent strip-shaped protrusions 1 is 1 mm.

[0096] Specifically, the special pattern of the strip protrusion 1 combined with the trapezoidal serrated sheet structure 5 can comprehensively improve the surface roughness of the pattern block 4, increase the friction area and friction coefficient when the tire contacts the ground, and help provide better traction and braking force on icy and snowy roads. This design can cut off this layer of water film and absorb or discharge the water film through the pressure shock wave generated by the joint action of the edge of the strip protrusion 1, the edge of the pattern block 4 and the microscopic rough surface of the road surface, so that the contact surface always remains dry, thereby improving the tire's grip on icy and snowy roads.

[0097] In this embodiment, a plurality of strip-shaped protrusions 1 that are sequentially arranged are designed in a "U" shape, or a "triangle" shape, or an "L" shape, so as to enhance the overall aesthetics of the tire.

[0098] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the tire tread structure also includes a first recess 9, which is disposed on the tread block 4. One end of the first recess 9 is located within the tread block 4, and the other end of the first recess 9 extends to the side of the tread block 4 to communicate with the longitudinal groove 3 and / or the transverse groove. The first recess 9 includes a first sub-recess 91 and a second sub-recess 92 that are interconnected. The first sub-recess 91 extends to the side of the tread block 4. Along the direction from the first sub-recess 91 to the second sub-recess 92, the depth of at least a portion of the first sub-recess 91 gradually increases, and the depth of at least a portion of the second sub-recess 92 gradually increases. The maximum depth G1max of the first sub-recess 91 and the maximum depth G2max of the second sub-recess 92 satisfy the following conditions: 4mm≤G1max≤5mm, 1mm≤G2max≤2mm. In this way, the above-mentioned setting can, on the one hand, discharge the turbulent airflow from the opening of the transverse groove close to the tread through the gradient bottom surface of the recess, so as to reduce the noise of the tire during driving; on the other hand, it can effectively cushion the impact of the tire with the ground during driving, further reducing the tire driving noise and improving the tire driving stability and comfort.

[0099] In this example, a large number of cut corners (chamfered angles) are provided at the corners of the pattern block 4 to prevent the top corners of the pattern block 4 from being too sharp, thereby reducing the possibility of wear and tear of the pattern block 4 and further extending the service life of the tire.

[0100] In this embodiment, the first recess 9 located within the central tread portion 7 is a central recess 93, which communicates with the longitudinal groove 3. The width of the first sub-recess 91 of the central recess 93 is greater than the width of the second sub-recess 92. The first recess 9 located within the crown tread portion 8 is a crown recess 94. At least one crown recess 94 communicates with the longitudinal groove 3, and at least one other crown recess 94 communicates with the transverse groove. The crown recess 94 communicating with the longitudinal groove 3 is arranged opposite the central recess 93.

[0101] In this example, the tire tread structure further includes: a second recess 10 disposed on the side of the pattern block 4 located within the shoulder pattern portion 6, the second recess 10 being located within the transverse groove and extending to the tread. A third recess 11 is disposed on the side of the pattern block 4 located within the shoulder pattern portion 6, the third recess 11 being located within the longitudinal groove 3 and extending to the tread. The transverse groove within the shoulder pattern portion 6 has a length L3, the pattern block 4 within the shoulder pattern portion 6 has a length L4, the length L5 of the second recess 10 satisfies the following relationship with the length L3: 0.5L4≤L5≤0.7L4; and the length L6 of the third recess 11 satisfies the following relationship with the length L4: 0.3L4≤L6≤0.4L4.

[0102] In this embodiment, the second recess 10 and the third recess 11 form a step-like structure on the side of the pattern block 4 to effectively cushion the impact of the tire on the ground during driving, reduce tire driving noise, and improve tire driving stability and comfort.

[0103] like Figure 10 As described above, in this embodiment, the third recess 11 actually includes two sub-recesses that are interconnected along the depth direction of the longitudinal groove 3 (from the tread surface to the bottom of the longitudinal groove 3 ) to form a double-step structure.

[0104] In this embodiment, pattern groups 12 are formed between the tread blocks 4 located between at least three adjacent transverse grooves. There are multiple pattern groups 12, including a first pattern group, a second pattern group, and a third pattern group. The pitch sizes of the first pattern group, the second pattern group, and the third pattern group are different. This arrangement results in the tire tread structure adopting a multi-unequal pitch design, making the pattern structure more complex, significantly reducing tire driving noise and improving user driving comfort. Furthermore, for a single pattern group, an internal multi-pitch design is also adopted (pattern groups 12 are formed between the tread blocks 4 located between at least three adjacent transverse grooves), further reducing tire driving noise.

[0105] In this embodiment, the first pattern group has a pitch P1, the second pattern group has a pitch P2, and the third pattern group has a pitch P3.

[0106] A pattern group 12 is formed between the pattern blocks 4 located between three adjacent transverse grooves, that is, a pattern group 12 is formed between two groups of adjacent pattern blocks 4. As for the overall pitch of the tread, a double pitch design is also adopted in a single pitch unit, which further reduces the driving noise of the tire.

[0107] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 12As shown, the tire tread structure also includes: a fourth recess 13, disposed on the tread block 4 within the shoulder tread portion 6. The fourth recess 13 is located on the side of the sheet-like structure 5 away from the center plane of the tire. One end of the fourth recess 13 is located within the tread block 4, and the other end extends to the side of the tread block 4 to form a communication opening with the transverse groove; a serrated protrusion 15 is disposed on the bottom wall of the fourth recess 13. Within a tread group 12, the communication openings of the fourth recesses 13 on two adjacent tread blocks 4 within the shoulder tread portion 6 are arranged opposite each other. This arrangement facilitates the rapid removal of snow from the shoulder, further improving the tire's snow removal performance.

[0108] Optionally, the serrated protrusion 15 includes a plurality of serrated structures arranged along the extension direction of the fourth recess 13. The outer surface of the serrated structure has a first plane 151 and a second plane 152 connected to each other. The first plane 151 is set at an eleventh angle A11 with the bottom wall of the fourth recess 13, and the second plane 152 is set at a twelfth angle A12 with the bottom wall of the fourth recess 13. The eleventh angle A11 and the twelfth angle A12 satisfy the following conditions: 70°≤A11≤90°, 10°≤A12≤30°, and the second plane 152 is arranged opposite to the connecting opening. The depth G3 of the fourth recess 13 satisfies the following conditions: 0.5mm≤G3≤2mm, the width W1 of the fourth recess 13 satisfies the following conditions: 1.5mm≤W1≤5.5mm, and the height H2 of the serrated structure satisfies the following conditions: 0.4mm≤H2≤0.6mm.

[0109] Specifically, if Figure 12 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the serrated protrusion 15 is similar to the barbed serrations on the tentacles of an insect, which can effectively remove snow from the shoulder of the tire, especially when driving in deep snow or water. When the snow and water submerge the tread and cover the shoulder of the tire, the snow and water will be quickly removed along the inclined surface of the serration, thereby providing a certain snow-removing ability under the shoulder, further improving the driving performance of the tire in snow and wetlands.

[0110] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, the contact surface between the tread and the driving surface has a width B, and both sides of the center plane S of the tire are provided with: a first longitudinal groove 31 and a second longitudinal groove 32 arranged in sequence along the side of the tire to the center plane S, and the width W2 of the first longitudinal groove 31, the width W3 of the second longitudinal groove 32 and the width B satisfy: 0.03B≤W2≤0.05B, 0.01B≤W3≤0.03B; and / or, the tread has an area S1, the pattern block 4 has an area S2, and the area S1 and the area S2 satisfy: 0.25S1≤S2≤0.4S1.

[0111] Optionally, the width W2 of the first longitudinal groove 31 and the width W3 of the second longitudinal groove 32 satisfy: 7 mm ≤ W2 ≤ 12 mm, 3 mm ≤ W3 ≤ 8 mm.

[0112] Preferably, the width W2 of the first longitudinal groove 31 satisfies: 9.5 mm ≤ W2 ≤ 10 mm.

[0113] Specifically, among the grooves of the entire tread pattern (longitudinal grooves 3 and transverse grooves), the above-mentioned arrangement ensures that the area of ​​the longitudinal grooves 3 is appropriately proportioned relative to the total area of ​​the tread grooves. When the tire is in motion, if the width of the longitudinal grooves 3 is designed to be too narrow, the volume of snow removed from the circumferential tread will be too small, which is not conducive to improving snow performance. If the width of the longitudinal grooves 3 is designed to be too large, although snow performance is improved, the excessive width will narrow the area of ​​the pattern blocks 4, weakening rigidity and reducing handling performance. It may also change the vibration frequency when the tire contacts the road, making certain frequencies more easily excited and amplified, forming resonance. This resonance phenomenon will intensify the generation of tire noise, causing the driver and passengers to experience stronger noise interference. Therefore, the first longitudinal grooves 31 and the second longitudinal grooves 32 designed in this embodiment can more evenly improve the tire's snow removal performance and ensure low tire driving noise.

[0114] In this example, the second longitudinal grooves 32 are linear grooves, while the width W2 of the first longitudinal grooves 31 gradually increases along the circumference of the tire. A fifth angular difference A13 exists between the extension direction of the first groove wall and the extension direction of the other groove wall of the first longitudinal groove 31, satisfying the following conditions: 0° < A13 ≤ 5°. This arrangement gradually increases the width of the first longitudinal grooves 31, increasing the flow rate of accumulated snow or water within the first longitudinal grooves 31 and further improving the tire's snow and water drainage performance.

[0115] Table 2

[0116]

[0117] In this embodiment, the width W2 of the first longitudinal groove 31 is 9.5 mm, and the width W3 of the second longitudinal groove 32 is 5 mm.

[0118] Specifically, the above simulation optimization comparison shows that the W2 and W3 values ​​in this embodiment are the optimal solution, ensuring high snow-clearing performance while also providing good tire comfort. While continuously increasing W2 and W3 can continuously improve snow-clearing performance, as shown in Table 2, comfort performance gradually decreases. In fact, the continued increase in W2 and W3 also means that the contact area between the tire and the driving surface decreases, which can negatively affect the tire's grip and braking performance.

[0119] Specifically, the groove wall of the first longitudinal groove 31 in this embodiment also adopts an asymmetric design, so that the first longitudinal groove 31 forms a width gradient design by adjusting the angle between the groove wall surface and the center plane S of the tire, thereby increasing the flow speed of snow or water in the first longitudinal groove 31.

[0120] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0121] The tire tread structure includes strip-shaped protrusions disposed on the tread of the tire. The strip-shaped protrusions are arranged in an annular pattern. At least two transverse groove groups are spaced apart along the width of the tire. Each transverse groove group includes a plurality of transverse grooves, which are spaced apart along the circumference of the tire. In two adjacent transverse groove groups, the plurality of transverse grooves in one transverse groove group correspond one-to-one with the plurality of transverse grooves in the other transverse groove group. The transverse grooves and the corresponding transverse grooves are arranged at a first angle A1. A plurality of longitudinal grooves are spaced apart along the width of the tire. The longitudinal grooves extend along the circumference of the tire and penetrate the transverse grooves. The longitudinal grooves and the transverse grooves divide the tread into a plurality of pattern blocks, and the pattern blocks contain a sheet-like structure. In this way, the strip-shaped protrusions arranged on the outer surface of the tread can actually form a "dark pattern" structure, thereby increasing the tread roughness of the tire, and then comprehensively improving the tire's grip performance under different road conditions (snow, wet roads and dry land), which helps to initially improve the tire's handling performance under different road conditions. The above-mentioned setting of the transverse groove group and the transverse groove actually forms a "V"-shaped single-guide pattern on the tread. This pattern can improve the tire's drainage and snow removal performance while allowing the tire to "bite" the ground during driving, further improving the tire's grip performance and reducing slippage. At the same time, the lamellar structure arranged in the pattern block can cut the snow surface or water film to avoid the formation of a complete medium film between the tread and the driving surface, which leads to a decrease in the friction coefficient of the tread, further improving the tire's grip performance. The above three designs interact and complement each other, greatly increasing the interaction force between the tread and the driving surface, ensuring that the tire has high handling performance under different road conditions, thereby solving the problem of poor handling performance of snow tires in dry and wet road conditions in the existing technology, and improving the user's driving safety.
