Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、氷雪路用空気入りタイヤに関し、さらに詳しくは、氷雪路上性能を向上させた氷雪路用空気入りタイヤに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、氷雪路用空気入りタイヤの氷上性能を向上させるために、キャップトレッドコンパウンドを低硬度にしたり、トレッドパターンのサイプの本数を増やすことが行われていたが、これらによってブロック等の陸部剛性が低下してしまうので、溝面積を小さくすることで陸部剛性の低下を抑制することが試みられている。
【0003】
しかし、溝面積すなわち溝体積が小さくなると、雪を溝内に取り込みにくくなるので雪上性能、特に新雪上における操縦性能、制動性能が低下してしまうという問題があった。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
従って、本発明の課題は、氷雪路上性能を向上させた氷雪路用空気入りタイヤを提供することにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明によれば、トレッドに設けた少なくとも一部の溝の断面形状がくびれ部を有し、トレッド表面から前記くびれ部に向かって溝幅が減少し、前記くびれ部から溝底に向かって溝幅が増大するとともに、
前記くびれ部の溝底からの高さHおよび溝深さHが、
0.3≦H/H≦0.5
の関係を満たし、
前記溝の開口部の溝幅W、前記くびれ部における溝幅W、および、溝底における溝幅Wが、
0.5≦W/W≦0.9、
0.8≦W/W≦1.5、
<W
の関係を満たす氷雪路用空気入りタイヤが提供される。
【0006】
また、本発明によれば、トレッドが少なくとも一層のキャップトレッドとアンダートレッドとからなり、前記キャップトレッドのJIS A硬度Hscと前記アンダートレッドのJIS A硬度Hsuとが、
su/Hsc≧1.2
の関係を満たすとともに、
溝底から前記アンダートレッド表面までの高さHと溝深さHが、
0.3≦H/H≦0.7
の関係を満たす前記氷雪路用空気入りタイヤが提供される。
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の構成について図面を参照しながら詳細に説明する。図1は、本発明の氷雪路用空気入りタイヤの溝の断面形状の一例を示す断面図である。
【0008】
溝1は、その中間部分に溝幅が小さくなったくびれ部2を有し、トレッド表面からくびれ部2に向かって溝幅が減少し、くびれ部2から溝底に向かって溝幅が増大するような断面形状である。溝1の断面形状は、直線および/または曲線から構成され、くびれ部2はこれらの直線や曲線の変曲点または屈曲点である。
【0009】
くびれ部2の位置は、その溝底からの高さHが溝深さHに対して、0.3≦H/H≦0.5となるように設定される。0.3≦H/Hとすることによって、くびれ部2より溝底側の部分の体積を十分確保できるので、溝体積を増大させ、雪を溝内に取り込みやすくなり雪上性能を向上させることができる。また、H/H≦0.5とすることにより、トレッドが摩耗した後の陸部剛性の低下を抑え、氷雪路上性能の低下を抑制することができる。
【0010】
また、溝1の開口部の溝幅をW、くびれ部2における溝幅をW、および、溝底における溝幅をWとすると、
0.5≦W/W≦0.9、
0.8≦W/W≦1.5、
<W
となるように設定される。なお、溝底における溝幅Wは、図1のように断面形状において、溝底の隅部がR形状をなす場合は、溝底付近の最大溝幅をとればよい。
【0011】
0.5>W/Wでは、くびれ部2が狭くなりすぎて、トレッドが摩耗した後に陸部端部の剛性が低下してしまい、氷雪路上性能が低下する。W/W>0.9では、くびれ部2が広くなりすぎて、新品時の陸部剛性が不足してしまい、やはり氷雪路上性能が低下する。
【0012】
また、0.8>W/Wでは、くびれ部2より溝底側の部分の溝体積が小さくなりすぎてしまい、雪上性能が低下してしまう。逆に、W/W>1.5では、陸部端部の剛性が不足してしまい、氷雪路上性能が低下してしまううえに、乾燥路面上における操縦安定性も低下してしまう。
【0013】
従って、以上のようなくびれ部2を形成し、各部の溝幅を設定することにより、陸部剛性の低下を抑制して氷上性能の低下を抑えながら、十分な溝体積を確保して雪上性能を向上させることができるので、タイヤの氷雪路上性能を向上させることができる。特に氷雪路用空気入りタイヤに一般的に要求される、新品時から溝深さの50%付近までの摩耗におけるまでの氷上性能の低下を向上させたうえで、雪上性能を改善することができる。
【0014】
本発明は、いかなるトレッドパターンの溝にも適用可能で、トレッドパターンはブロック基調でもリブ基調でもよく、全溝に適用しても、溝の一部に適用してもよい。
【0015】
また、トレッドが少なくとも一層のキャップトレッド3とアンダートレッド4とから構成し、キャップトレッド3のJIS A硬度(JIS K 6253準拠)Hscとアンダートレッド4のJIS A硬度Hsuとが、
su/Hsc≧1.2
の関係を満たすとともに、
溝底から前記アンダートレッド4表面までの高さHと溝深さHが、
0.3≦H/H≦0.7、さらには、0.45≦H/H≦0.55
の関係を満たすように設定するのが、氷雪路上性能をさらに向上させることができ好ましい。
【0016】
すなわち、Hsu/Hsc≧1.2とすることで、キャップトレッド3に比べアンダートレッド4の硬度が十分大きいので、くびれ部2より溝底側の陸部剛性の低下を抑制することができ、雪上性能や乾燥路面上における操縦安定性を向上させることができる。また、キャップトレッド3の好ましい硬度Hscは、特に限定されず適宜設定すればよいが、例えば、40〜55とすればよい。
【0017】
また、0.3≦H/Hとアンダートレッド4の高さを低すぎないようにすることで、陸部剛性が向上するとともに、陸部の接地性が良好となり、氷雪路上性能が改善される。H/H≦0.7とアンダートレッド4の高さを高すぎないようにすることで、キャップトレッド3が摩耗して早期にアンダートレッド4が露出しないようにすることで、摩耗時の氷上性能の低下を抑制することができる。なお、キャップトレッド3は、一層でも複数層であってもよい。
【0018】
【実施例】
以下、実施例によって本発明をさらに説明するが、本発明の範囲をこれらの実施例に限定するものではない。
実施例1〜4、標準例及び比較例1〜6
図1(実施例および比較例)および図2(標準例)に示す断面形状の溝をブロック基調のトレッドパターンの全溝に設けたタイヤサイズ195/65R15の乗用車用の氷雪路用空気入りタイヤを作製した。溝のサイズは、溝深さHを10mmで統一し、表1に示すように変えてある。得られた各タイヤについて、以下の各試験に供した。
【0019】

【0023】
上記表1に示すように、H/Hが小さすぎる比較例1は、くびれ部2より溝底側の部分の体積を十分確保できず、溝体積が小さくなってしまい、雪上性能の改善が認められなかった。逆に、H/Hが大きすぎる比較例2は、トレッドが摩耗した後の陸部端部の剛性が低下し、摩耗後の氷上性能と操縦安定性が悪化してしまった。
【0024】
/Wが小さすぎる比較例3は、くびれ部2が狭くなりすぎて、トレッドが摩耗した後に陸部剛性が低下してしまい、氷雪路上性能が低下した。逆に、W/Wが大きすぎる比較例4は、くびれ部2が広くなりすぎて、新品時の陸部剛性が不足してしまい、氷上性能と操縦安定性が低下してしまった。
【0025】
また、W/Wが大きすぎる比較例5は、陸部端部の剛性が不足してしまい、氷上性能と操縦安定性が低下してしまった。逆に、W/Wが小さすぎる比較例6は、くびれ部2より溝底側の部分の溝体積が小さくなりすぎてしまい、雪上性能の改善が不充分となってしまった。
【0026】
それらに対して、実施例1〜4は、標準例に比較して、氷上性能と操縦安定性の低下を許容範囲に抑えたうえで、雪上性能が向上するという良好な結果が得られた。
【0027】
【発明の効果】
本発明に従って、溝の断面形状がくびれ部を有し、前記くびれ部の溝底からの高さ、くびれ部における溝幅、および、溝底における溝幅を上述した通りに設定することによって、氷雪路上性能を向上させた氷雪路用空気入りタイヤを得ることができる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire for icy and snowy roads, and more particularly to a pneumatic tire for icy and snowy roads with improved performance on icy and snowy roads.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in order to improve the on-ice performance of pneumatic tires for snowy and snowy roads, the cap tread compound was made to have a low hardness and the number of tread pattern sipes was increased. Therefore, attempts have been made to reduce the land area rigidity by reducing the groove area.
[0003]
However, when the groove area, that is, the groove volume is small, it is difficult to take snow into the groove, so that there is a problem that the performance on snow, particularly the steering performance and the braking performance on fresh snow, is reduced.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a pneumatic tire for ice and snow roads with improved performance on ice and snow roads.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, the cross-sectional shape of at least a part of the groove provided in the tread has a constricted portion, the groove width is reduced from the tread surface toward the constricted portion, and the groove is formed from the constricted portion toward the groove bottom. As the width increases,
The height Hb and the groove depth H of the constricted portion from the groove bottom are:
0.3 ≦ H b /H≦0.5
Satisfy the relationship
The groove width W a of the opening of the groove, the groove width W b of the waist portion, and the groove width W c of the groove bottom,
0.5 ≦ W b / W a ≦ 0.9,
0.8 ≦ W c / W a ≦ 1.5,
W b <W c
Is provided.
[0006]
Further, according to the present invention, the tread consists of a least one layer of the cap tread and an under tread, a JIS A hardness H su of the under tread and JIS A hardness H sc of the cap tread,
H su / H sc ≧ 1.2
While satisfying the relationship
The height H u from the groove bottom to the undertread surface and the groove depth H are:
0.3 ≦ H u /H≦0.7
The pneumatic tire for icy and snowy roads that satisfies the following relationship is provided.
[0007]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an example of a cross-sectional shape of a groove of a pneumatic tire for icy and snowy roads according to the present invention.
[0008]
The groove 1 has a constricted portion 2 having a reduced groove width at an intermediate portion thereof, the groove width decreases from the tread surface toward the constricted portion 2, and the groove width increases from the constricted portion 2 toward the groove bottom. It has such a cross-sectional shape. The cross-sectional shape of the groove 1 is composed of straight lines and / or curves, and the constricted portion 2 is an inflection point or a bending point of these straight lines or curves.
[0009]
The position of the constricted portion 2 is set such that the height Hb from the groove bottom with respect to the groove depth H satisfies 0.3 ≦ Hb / H ≦ 0.5. By setting 0.3 ≦ H b / H, the volume of the portion on the groove bottom side from the constricted portion 2 can be sufficiently ensured, so that the groove volume is increased, snow is easily taken into the groove, and the performance on snow is improved. Can be. Further, by setting H b /H≦0.5, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the rigidity of the land portion after the tread is worn, and to suppress a decrease in the performance on ice and snow roads.
[0010]
Further, if the groove width of the opening of the groove 1 is W a , the groove width of the constricted portion 2 is W b , and the groove width at the groove bottom is W c ,
0.5 ≦ W b / W a ≦ 0.9,
0.8 ≦ W c / W a ≦ 1.5,
W b <W c
Is set to be Incidentally, the groove width W c of the groove bottom, in cross-sectional shape as shown in FIG. 1, when the corner portion of the groove bottom forms a R-shape, it take a maximum groove width in the vicinity of the groove bottom.
[0011]
When 0.5> W b / W a , the constricted portion 2 becomes too narrow, and the rigidity of the land portion ends is reduced after the tread is worn, and the performance on ice and snow roads is reduced. When W b / W a > 0.9, the constricted portion 2 becomes too wide, and the rigidity of the land portion at the time of a new product is insufficient, and the performance on ice and snow roads is also reduced.
[0012]
When 0.8> W c / W a , the groove volume on the groove bottom side of the constricted portion 2 is too small, and the performance on snow is reduced. Conversely, in W c / W a> 1.5, causes a lack of rigidity of the land portion ends, on top of ice and snow road performance is lowered, also the steering stability on a dry road surface deteriorates.
[0013]
Therefore, by forming the constricted portion 2 as described above and setting the groove width of each portion, a sufficient groove volume is secured by suppressing a decrease in land rigidity and suppressing a decrease in ice performance, while securing a sufficient groove volume. Can be improved, so that the performance of the tire on ice and snow can be improved. In particular, it is possible to improve the on-snow performance after improving the on-ice performance from the time of brand-new to the wear of up to about 50% of the groove depth, which is generally required for pneumatic tires for icy and snowy roads. .
[0014]
The present invention is applicable to grooves of any tread pattern, and the tread pattern may be block-based or rib-based, applied to all grooves, or applied to a part of grooves.
[0015]
Further, the tread is comprised of at least one layer of the cap tread 3 and under tread 4 which, and the JIS A hardness H su of JIS A hardness of the cap tread 3 (JIS K 6253-compliant) H sc and undertread 4,
H su / H sc ≧ 1.2
While satisfying the relationship
The height H u from the groove bottom to the surface of the undertread 4 and the groove depth H are:
0.3 ≦ H u /H≦0.7, and further, 0.45 ≦ H u /H≦0.55
Is preferably set so as to satisfy the relationship, since the performance on ice and snow roads can be further improved.
[0016]
That is, by setting H su / H sc ≧ 1.2, the hardness of the under tread 4 is sufficiently higher than that of the cap tread 3, and therefore, a decrease in land rigidity on the groove bottom side from the constriction 2 can be suppressed. In addition, it is possible to improve the performance on snow and the steering stability on a dry road surface. Further, the preferred hardness Hsc of the cap tread 3 is not particularly limited and may be set as appropriate, but may be, for example, 40 to 55.
[0017]
In addition, by keeping the height of the undertread 4 such that 0.3 ≦ H u / H is not too low, the rigidity of the land portion is improved, the ground contact property of the land portion is improved, and the performance on ice and snow roads is improved. You. H u /H≦0.7 and the height of the undertread 4 is not too high, so that the cap tread 3 is worn and the undertread 4 is not exposed early, so that the undertread 4 is not exposed at an early stage. Performance degradation can be suppressed. The cap tread 3 may be a single layer or a plurality of layers.
[0018]

The test tires were measured when they were new and when they were worn 30% of the groove depth. The evaluation result was obtained by calculating the reciprocal of the braking distance and using an index with the value of the standard example at the time of brand-new as 100. The larger the index value, the better the performance on snow.
[0020]
Performance on ice The test tire was mounted on a passenger car at an air pressure of 200 kPa, and a braking distance was measured when the vehicle was running on ice at a speed of 40 km / h to apply a brake and stop. The test tires were measured when they were new and when they were worn 30% of the groove depth. The evaluation result was obtained by calculating the reciprocal of the braking distance and using an index with the value of the standard example at the time of brand-new as 100. The larger the index value, the better the performance on ice.
[0021]
Driving stability The test tire was mounted on a passenger car at an air pressure of 200 kPa, and the vehicle was driven on a dry road surface of a test course having a flat circuit at a speed of 60 to 100 km / h, and the steering performance at the time of lane change and cornering was improved. Sensitivity was evaluated by three specialized panelists for stability when traveling straight. The evaluation results were shown as index values using the value of the standard example as a reference (100). The larger the index, the better the steering stability.
[0022]
[Table 1]
Figure 2004017851
[0023]
As shown in Table 1 above, in Comparative Example 1 in which H b / H is too small, the volume of the portion on the groove bottom side from the constricted portion 2 cannot be sufficiently secured, and the groove volume is reduced, and the performance on snow is improved. I was not able to admit. Conversely, in Comparative Example 2 in which Hb / H was too large, the rigidity of the land portion edge after the tread was worn was reduced, and the on-ice performance and the steering stability after the wear were deteriorated.
[0024]
In Comparative Example 3 in which W b / W a was too small, the constricted portion 2 was too narrow, and the land portion rigidity was reduced after the tread was worn, and the performance on ice and snow roads was reduced. Conversely, W b / W a is Comparative Example 4 is too large, too wide constricted portion 2, will run out of the land portion rigidity at the time of a new, steering stability and performance on ice had decreased.
[0025]
Further, W c / W a is Comparative Example 5 is too large, would be insufficient rigidity of the land portion ends, steering stability and performance on ice had decreased. Conversely, in Comparative Example 6 in which W c / W a was too small, the groove volume on the groove bottom side from the constricted portion 2 was too small, and the improvement in on-snow performance was insufficient.
[0026]
On the other hand, in Examples 1 to 4, compared to the standard example, good results were obtained in which the on-ice performance and the handling stability were reduced to an allowable range and the on-snow performance was improved.
