Description

Pneumatic tire for electric two-wheeled vehicle

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of pneumatic tires, and particularly to a pneumatic tire for an electric motorcycle.

Background

In order to obtain better drainage, abrasion resistance and lower rolling resistance of the conventional pneumatic tire for the electric two-wheeled vehicle, the tire tread pattern is generally designed to be a groove-shaped pattern with a high land ratio. As shown in fig. 1, a pattern structure of a conventional pneumatic tire for an electric two-wheeled vehicle is provided, in which a main groove 10 'and an auxiliary groove 20' provided in a tread 1 'are designed to be long and wide, so that the entire ground contact surface of the tread 1' is continuous, an edge effect is small, an area of a rubber material that can be worn away is large, and a smooth drainage channel can be provided. However, the main grooves 10 'and the sub grooves 20' with large span also form a long and wide open entrance, which is easy to clamp stones when the tire is actually driven, and the stones can cause damage to the tire once penetrating the bottom of the groove. The common stone-trapping preventing method is to add small bumps to the bottom of the groove on the tread or directly design the groove with smaller width. The small bumps arranged at the bottom of the groove and the width of the groove on the narrow surface can reduce the stone clamping phenomenon to a certain extent, but the drainage channel of the groove can be reduced, the drainage function of the groove is weakened to a great extent, the wetland performance is reduced, and the slipping risk is increased. And when the tire with the groove-shaped pattern with the high land ratio is used in a wet land, the slip phenomenon also frequently occurs.

In order to reduce the slip of the tire when the tire runs on a wet road surface, a common method is to add a shallow trench on the tire surface, but the arrangement of the shallow trench in the center of the tire surface can greatly reduce the rigidity of the tire surface in the central area, and can also reduce the dry abrasion resistance and the rolling resistance performance of the tire; and the anti-skid performance improved by arranging the shallow trenches is limited, the tire has better anti-skid performance only at the initial stage of putting the tire into use, and once the shallow trenches are ground flat in the running process, the wet anti-skid performance of the tire is rapidly reduced.

Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to develop a pneumatic tire for electric two-wheeled vehicles which can effectively prevent stone entrapment and improve wet skid of the tire without affecting dry wear resistance, rolling resistance performance and water drainage of the tire.

Example one

Fig. 2 is a schematic view of a tread pattern structure according to a first embodiment of the present invention. A pneumatic tire for an electric two-wheeled vehicle includes a tire body including a tread 1. The tread 1 is provided with tread patterns, and the tread patterns on two sides of the tread 1 are symmetrical about a tire center plane C.L and are arranged along the tire circumferential direction in a staggered mode. The tread pattern comprises a bending main groove 10, an inclined main groove 20 and a central antiskid sucker 30, wherein the groove width of the inclined main groove 20 is larger than that of the bending main groove 10.

The inclined main grooves 20 are arranged at intervals in the tire circumferential direction, and the bent main grooves 10 are provided between circumferentially adjacent inclined main grooves 20. The bending main groove 10 is formed by connecting two sections of grooves, and two ends of the bending main groove penetrate through the edge of the tire tread 1. The central anti-skid suction cups 30 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the tire adjacent the tire center plane c.l. The bending main groove 10 may be formed by connecting two or more grooves to each other, so as to provide a smooth drainage channel for the tire.

The head of the inclined main groove 20 is close to the tire central plane c.l., and the tail is close to and penetrates through the edge of the tread 1. The inclined main groove 20 is a two-stage groove with a break, and is composed of an upper groove 21 and a lower groove 22 which are arranged in a diagonally staggered manner. As shown in fig. 3, in which the outer end point of the rear ground terminal 21b of the upper groove 21 overlaps the inner end point of the front ground terminal 22b of the lower groove 22. The inclined main channel 20 is designed into a disconnected two-section type channel, the drainage volume of a continuous large-span channel can be kept, and compared with a one-section type channel in the existing design, the edge effect is increased, and the anti-skid performance is improved; and the continuous open entrance of the groove is reduced, and the probability that stones fall into the groove in the running process of the tire is reduced. The overlap of the outer end of rear ground contact edge 21b of upper groove 21 with the inner end of front ground contact edge 22b of lower groove 22 ensures the continuity of drainage of inclined main groove 20 without affecting the dry abrasion and rolling resistance performance of the tire.

As shown in fig. 4-5, the central anti-slip suction cup 30 includes a concave arc plate 30a and three rotating ladders 30b spaced at the bottom of the arc plate 30a along the arc contour of the central anti-slip suction cup 30. The rotary ladder 30b extends radially downward from the bottom of the arc plate 30 a. The number of the rotary ladders 30b in the single central anti-slip suction cup 30 is set to be not less than two, and the step height of each rotary ladder 30b is set to be gradually reduced in the clockwise direction, that is, the step height of each rotary ladder 30b may be set to be gradually reduced in the clockwise direction or gradually reduced in the counterclockwise direction. In the present embodiment, the number of the rotary ladder 30b in the single central anti-slip suction cup 30 is set to 3, and the step height of the rotary ladder 30b is set to be gradually decreased in the counterclockwise direction. By the design, on one hand, the rotary ladder 30b can improve the expansion elasticity of the central anti-skid sucker 30 and improve the water film breaking capacity and the ground gripping performance of the tire; on the other hand, the rotary ladder 30b can generate multidirectional edge effect, and after the circular arc disc 30a is ground flat after the tire is used for a period of time, the effects of breaking water films and grabbing the ground are played in succession, and the wetland anti-skid performance of the central anti-skid sucker 30 is prolonged.

Example two

As shown in fig. 6-7, the difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in the present embodiment, in order to further enhance the stone-trapping prevention effect of the inclined main trench 20, both the inner sidewall 21a of the upper trench 21 and the outer sidewall 22a of the lower trench 22 are stepped, and may be set to 2-4 steps. In the present embodiment, the inner side wall 21a of the upper groove 21 and the outer side wall 22a of the lower groove 22 are each provided with a 3-step wall. The step design of the groove wall can enable the section width of the groove to be gradually narrowed from the surface to the bottom, even if stones enter the surface of the groove, the step can prevent the stones from being further clamped into the bottom of the groove, and the stone discharge is facilitated when the tire runs. The upper groove 21 and the lower groove 22 are designed to be diagonally staggered, the step design of the walls of the upper groove and the lower groove are also staggered on the inner side and the outer side, and the step arrangement is only carried out on the wall of one side in order to avoid over-narrowing the drainage channel of the inclined main groove 20.

In order to ensure the smoothness of drainage and the rolling resistance performance, as shown in fig. 8, the rear ground end 21b of the upper groove 21 and the front ground end 22b of the lower groove 22 are both inclined, and the angle between the two ends and the radial normal is set to 15 ° to 45 °. In the present embodiment, the angle α between the rear ground end 21b of the upper groove 21 and the radial normal and the angle β between the front ground end 22b of the lower groove 22 and the radial normal are set to 20 °. If the included angle is too small, the rear grounding end 21b of the upper groove 21 and the front grounding end 22b of the lower groove 22 cannot be smoothly transited, so that the drainage efficiency of the inclined main groove 20 is reduced, and the rolling resistance of the tire is increased; if the angle is too large, the drainage channel of the inclined main channel 20 is shortened, and the drainage performance is also deteriorated.

EXAMPLE III

As shown in fig. 9 to 10, the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that, in the present embodiment, in order to further balance the service life of the central suction cup 30 and the rigidity of the tread 1, the depth H1 of the arc disc 30a is set to 20% to 40% of the depth H of the inclined main groove 20, and the depth H2 of the rotary ladder 30b is set to 20% to 40% of the depth H of the inclined main groove 20. In the present embodiment, the depth H1 of the arc disk 30a is set to 31% of the depth H of the inclined main groove 20, and the depth H2 of the rotary ladder 30b is set to 28% of the depth H of the inclined main groove 20. If the overall depth of the central anti-skid suction cup 30 is too large, the rigidity of the central area of the tread 1 is reduced, so that the dry abrasion resistance of the tire is deteriorated; if the overall depth of the central anti-slip sucker 30 is too small, the service life of the central anti-slip sucker 30 is short, and long-acting anti-slip performance of the wetland cannot be provided.

The inner side wall 21a of the upper groove 21 and the outer side wall 22a of the lower groove 22, and the rear contact end 21b of the upper groove 21 and the front contact end 22b of the lower groove 22 may also adopt the same step design and inclined design of the groove walls as in the second embodiment, so as to further improve the stone-trapping prevention function, the drainage smoothness and the rolling resistance performance of the tire, and the description thereof is omitted.

Example four

Fig. 11 is a schematic view of a tread pattern structure according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in this embodiment, in order to further improve the anti-skid performance of the tire on wet ground, the tread pattern further includes a side anti-skid group 40. The side anti-slip groups 40 may be provided as one or both of a group of shallow grooves and a rough groove arranged in parallel at intervals, provided in an enclosed area formed by the bending main grooves 10 and the edge of the tread 1, and an area between the inclined main grooves 20 and the bending main grooves 10. In the present embodiment, the side anti-slip group 40 is composed of a group of shallow grooves 41 and asperity 42 arranged in parallel at intervals. The shallow groove group 41 is provided between the tilted main groove 20 and the bent main groove 10, and the roughened pattern 42 is provided in an enclosed region formed by the bent main groove 10 and the edge of the tread 1.

The side anti-slip set 40 may be only disposed in the region between the inclined main groove 20 and the bent main groove 10 or the surrounding region formed by the bent main groove 10 and the edge of the tread 1, the inner side wall 21a of the upper groove 21 and the outer side wall 22a of the lower groove 22, and the rear contact end 21b of the upper groove 21 and the front contact end 22b of the lower groove 22 may also be respectively designed in a step shape or an inclined shape, and the depth design of the central anti-slip suction cup 30 may also be designed in a depth shape, which is the same as that in the third embodiment, and will not be described herein again.

The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, and various modifications and changes will occur to those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
