Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire manufacturing technology, and more specifically, to an all-terrain off-road tire. Background Technology

[0002] As people's enthusiasm for outdoor adventure, off-road racing, and special rescue activities grows, the off-road performance of vehicles is receiving increasing attention. As the only part of a vehicle that comes into contact with the ground, the performance of tires directly determines the off-road experience and safety.

[0003] In the traditional off-road tire field, there are many problems that urgently need to be solved. On the one hand, the tread design of ordinary off-road tires is relatively simple, with regular tread block shapes and a lack of special reinforcement structures. When facing complex road conditions such as muddy terrain, the tread blocks are easily covered with mud, resulting in a sharp decrease in grip and the vehicle becoming stuck in the mud. When climbing steep slopes or cornering at high speeds, insufficient grip also fails to provide adequate lateral support for the vehicle, increasing the risk of skidding and rollover.

[0004] On the other hand, traditional off-road tires have limited water and mud drainage capabilities. Their tread grooves are usually straight or simple arcs, making it difficult for water or mud to flow smoothly within the grooves and quickly expel from the tire surface. When driving in the rain, water easily accumulates between the tire and the ground, creating hydroplaning and causing loss of vehicle control; in muddy conditions, mud buildup can clog the grooves, causing the tires to lose their water drainage and traction functions, severely affecting the vehicle's forward movement.

[0005] Furthermore, the overall stability of the tires is poor. The groove layout of most traditional tires lacks systematic planning and cannot effectively distribute the pressure on the tires on rough terrain. When vehicles are driving on mountain roads full of gravel and potholes, the tires are subjected to uneven force, which can easily lead to excessive local deformation, resulting in dangerous situations such as tire blowouts or loss of vehicle control.

[0006] Furthermore, traditional off-road tires also have shortcomings in their material selection. They generally use conventional rubber, which has limited strength and cannot withstand high-intensity wear and impact. During frequent off-road activities, the tire tread wears out quickly, and the tire carcass is easily damaged, which not only shortens the tire's lifespan but also increases the cost and inconvenience of frequent tire replacements for users.

[0007] In conclusion, in order to meet the growing off-road demand and overcome the shortcomings of existing off-road tires, it is urgent to develop an all-terrain off-road tire with excellent grip, outstanding water and mud drainage capabilities, superior stability, and long service life. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and to propose an all-terrain off-road tire, comprising:

[0009] The tread has a main tread groove in the middle and multiple sets of tread pattern blocks made of high-strength material on both sides of the main tread groove. The bottom of the tread pattern blocks has a stepped and zigzag design to enhance the strength of the tread blocks. There are lateral tread grooves between the tread pattern blocks.

[0010] The tire shoulder is provided with multiple sets of tire shoulder tread blocks made of high-strength materials. A lateral tread groove is provided between the tire shoulder tread blocks, and a mud strip is provided at the bottom of the lateral tread groove.

[0011] Preferably, a first groove and a second groove are provided between the tread and the shoulder, and the first groove, the second groove and the main groove of the tread are all vertical S-shaped grooves.

[0012] Preferably, the lateral tread grooves and the lateral shoulder tread grooves are arranged in a transverse S-shaped pattern.

[0013] Preferably, the vertical S-shaped channel and the horizontal S-shaped channel intersect each other.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the tread block has a stepped and zigzag design to enhance the strength of the tread block and provide additional grip.

[0015] Preferably, the tread blocks on the tire shoulder are arranged in a staggered pattern to provide additional grip.

[0016] Preferably, the tire shoulder tread blocks are provided with steel plates to improve grip performance on dry and wet surfaces and enhance traction performance.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. Superior Grip Enhancement: The stepped, zigzag design at the bottom of the tread blocks provides extra grip for the tire in complex road conditions. Whether it's muddy roads, soft sand, or gravelly mountain terrain, it effectively grips the ground, preventing tire slippage and ensuring stable vehicle movement.

[0019] The staggered arrangement of the tire shoulder tread blocks further expands the contact area with the ground, enhancing grip. Especially when the vehicle is traveling at high speed and needs to make an emergency turn or go through a curve, it can provide sufficient lateral support to ensure the vehicle's handling precision and safety.

[0020] The steel plates embedded in the tread blocks on the tire shoulder greatly enhance the tire's grip on both dry and wet surfaces. On dry roads, the steel plates increase the friction between the tire and the ground, making the vehicle start and accelerate more quickly. On wet roads, such as rainwater accumulation or muddy wetlands, the steel plates can cut through the water film or penetrate the mud layer to directly contact the ground, significantly reducing the risk of slippage and ensuring vehicle stability.

[0021] 2. Excellent water drainage and mud removal capabilities: The lateral tread grooves connect with the lateral shoulder grooves, forming an overall transverse S-shaped groove. This design allows the tire to quickly and efficiently drain water from the tire surface in flooded areas. Rapid water drainage effectively prevents hydroplaning, greatly improving vehicle safety in rainy weather and when driving through flooded areas.

[0022] The mud springs located at the bottom of the lateral tread grooves on the tire shoulder continuously eject mud embedded in the grooves. In muddy conditions, this prevents mud from accumulating and clogging the tread grooves, maintaining the tire's drainage and grip performance, allowing the vehicle to drive smoothly through mud without losing traction due to mud buildup.

[0023] 3. Superior Stability: The vertical S-shaped grooves (including the main tread groove, the first groove, and the second groove) between the tread and the shoulder intersect with the lateral S-shaped grooves, forming a stable support structure. When the vehicle is traveling on rough mountain roads, steep slopes, or other complex terrains, and the tire is subjected to uneven force, this unique groove intersection structure can distribute pressure from multiple directions, reduce tire deformation, ensure stable vehicle driving, and reduce the risk of accidents such as skidding and rollovers.

[0024] 4. Extended Tire Lifespan: The tread blocks and shoulder blocks are made of high-strength materials, capable of withstanding high-intensity wear and impact from harsh road conditions. During off-road driving, frequent passage through gravel roads and potholes can easily lead to tread wear and tire rupture on ordinary tires. However, this patented tire, thanks to its high-strength materials, effectively resists wear, maintains tread integrity, extends the overall lifespan of the tire, and reduces the frequency and cost of tire replacements for users.

[0025] In conclusion, this all-terrain off-road tire, with its innovative design, comprehensively improves performance in multiple aspects such as grip, water and mud drainage, stability, and service life, bringing a brand-new off-road driving experience and possessing extremely high practical value and market competitiveness.
