The terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined with "first," "second," and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0025] This utility model provides a high-speed, load-bearing tire for light-duty trucks. By designing the tread and bead areas, the tire's load-bearing and high-speed performance are improved, thereby ensuring the tire's safety when used at high speeds. Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of a high-speed, load-bearing tire for light-duty trucks according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the crown portion of a high-speed, heavy-duty tire for light-duty trucks according to an embodiment of the present invention. (Reference) Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the high-speed, heavy-duty tire for light-duty trucks includes a crown, which comprises, from the outside in, a tread 1, a belt layer, a carcass 3, and an inner liner 4. The belt layer includes a first belt layer 21, a first belt layer 22, a third belt layer 23, and a fourth belt layer 24, which are arranged sequentially above the carcass 3 from bottom to top. The steel cords of adjacent belt layers are arranged in a crisscross pattern. The angle between the steel cords of the first belt layer 21 and the tire circumference is 23° to 25°, and the angles between the steel cords of the first belt layer 22, the third belt layer 23, and the fourth belt layer 24 and the tire circumference are all 14° to 16°. The widths W1 of the first belt layer 21, W2 of the first belt layer 22, W3 of the third belt layer 23, and W4 of the fourth belt layer 24 satisfy W2>W1>W3=W4. Among them, the width W2 of the first belt layer 22 and the tire running surface width W satisfy W2=(94%~96%)×W, the width W1 of the first belt layer 21 and the width W2 of the first belt layer 22 satisfy W2-W1=8~12mm, the width W3 of the third belt layer 23 and the width W2 of the first belt layer 22 satisfy W3=(45%~47%)×W2, and the width W4 of the fourth belt layer 24 and the width W3 of the third belt layer 23 satisfy W4=W3. The first belt layer 22 of this invention has the widest width, while the third belt layer 23 and the fourth belt layer 24 have the narrowest widths and are equal in width. By adopting the above four-layer belt structure, the tire crown has sufficient rigidity and small sinkage, resulting in good stability under load and higher safety performance in actual use.

[0026] The belt layer of this utility model also includes circumferential zero-degree belt layers 25 disposed above both ends of the first belt layer 22 and located on both sides of the third belt layer 23. The circumferential zero-degree belt layers 25 consist of upper and lower belt layers, and adjacent circumferential zero-degree belt layers 25 are continuously wound together; that is, the upper and lower belt layers of the circumferential zero-degree belt layer 25 are wound from a single, uninterrupted strip, as shown in the winding method. Figure 3 As shown in the diagram, the distance between the inner end point of each circumferential zero-degree belt layer 25 and the outer end point of the adjacent third belt layer 23 is 1-2 mm. The width at the outermost end point of each circumferential zero-degree belt layer 25 is greater than the width at the end point of the first belt layer 21, and the width difference is d1 = 3-5 mm. By setting two circumferential zero-degree belt layers 25 at the tire shoulder position in the tire crown area, the tire shoulder steel cord fabric can be better tightened, resisting centrifugal force during high-speed driving and ensuring tire stability at high speeds. At the same time, this structure is less prone to tire blowouts and provides better safety.

[0027] refer to Figure 4As shown, the high-speed, heavy-duty tire for light-duty trucks of this utility model also includes a bead, which comprises a triangular rubber ring 5 and a steel wire ring 6. The tire carcass 3 wraps around the steel wire ring 6 and extends to the outside of the triangular rubber ring 5. The cord direction of the tire carcass 3 at the bead portion is radially distributed. In one embodiment of this utility model, a steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 is provided on the outside of the tire carcass 3. The outer end point A1 of the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 is lower than the wrapping end point B1 of the tire carcass 3, and the distance between the outer end point A1 of the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 and the wrapping end point B1 of the tire carcass 3 is 10-12 mm. The angle between the cord of the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 and the cord of the tire carcass 3 is 57°-63°. Preferably, the angle between the cord of the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 and the cord of the tire carcass 3 is 60°. In one embodiment of this utility model, a layer of nylon cord fabric 8 is attached to the outer side of the steel wire reinforcing layer 7. The outer end point C1 of the nylon cord fabric 8 is higher than the reverse end point B1 of the tire body 3, and the distance between the outer end point C1 of the nylon cord fabric 8 and the reverse end point B1 of the tire body 3 is 10-12 mm. The inner end point C2 of the nylon cord fabric 8 is higher than the inner end point A2 of the steel wire reinforcing layer 7, and the distance between the inner end point C2 of the nylon cord fabric 8 and the inner end point A2 of the steel wire reinforcing layer 7 is 10-12 mm. The cord direction of the nylon cord fabric 8 intersects the cord direction of the steel wire reinforcing layer 7 at an angle of 77°-83°. Preferably, the intersection angle between the cord direction of the nylon cord fabric 8 and the cord of the steel wire reinforcing layer 7 is 80°. The end points of each component in the bead area of ​​this utility model light-duty truck high-speed load-bearing tire are evenly distributed and do not overlap. The inner end point of the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 is the lowest, followed by the inner end point of the nylon cord fabric 8. The outer end point of the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 is higher than the inner end point of the nylon cord fabric 8 but lower than the reverse wrapping end point of the tire carcass 3. The outer end point of the nylon cord fabric 8 is higher than the reverse wrapping end point of the tire carcass 3. The bead area is reinforced by both the steel wire bead reinforcement layer 7 and the nylon cord fabric 8. The nylon cord fabric 8 wraps around all the steel wire cord ends in the bead area, providing good support and ensuring the stability of the tire under high loads.
