- Each of these causes premature wear of the tread inside the mounting, or in other words, uneven wear of the tread.
- the load of the force in these cases generally increases in the area closer to the ground contact end, and uneven wear nuclei tend to occur in that area, and the uneven wear generated there gradually increases from the tire equatorial line. Will progress to the side.
- the belt tension is reduced by filling the internal pressure. It is effective to add a tread pattern that increases the rigidity in the tread width direction at each of the tread center part, which becomes particularly large, and the part where the grounding length becomes longer and the rigidity of the tread pattern is particularly large.

- the sum of the groove volumes of the lateral grooves that may be formed in the shoulder land portion row at the portion inside the mounting is determined by the groove volume of the lateral groove formed in the shoulder land portion row at the portion outside the mounting.
- the groove ratio in the shoulder land row is reduced, and It can be dealt with by increasing the row stiffness.
- the uneven wear caused by the reduced radius of rotation inside the mounting due to the tire's vertical radius, the total width of the horizontal groove in the shoulder land row Based on the reduced volume, this can be dealt with by suppressing the land row from deforming in the direction to reduce the width of the lateral groove on the ground contact surface and reducing the radius of gyration.

- the belt tension at the tread center is smaller than that at the tread center part, and the contact length of the inner cross section is shorter than the above ribs, so that the contribution ratio of the second inner land section to the steering stability is so large. Therefore, even if the extension angle of the inclined groove of the second inner ridge row is set to 45 ° or more as described above, it does not significantly affect the steering stability, and as described above.

- the wheel rim approaches the road surface and the radius of rotation decreases, while the grounding length decreases. Since the turning radius is large on the outside, for example, when the vehicle is running straight, there is a problem that the relative force in the braking direction acts on the inside of the mounting, causing early wear there.
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2001-354 As disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No.
- the tire circumferential rigidity of the shoulder land portion inside the mounting is determined by the tire of the shoulder land portion outside the mounting.
- the wear resistance in the braking direction of the shoulder-land portion on the inner side of the mounting in other words, on the side where the contact length increases, may be improved.
- the shoulder land portion row on the inner side of the bonding is divided into two in the width direction by narrow grooves extending in the circumferential direction, and one of the narrow divided portions located on the tread end side is used as a wear sacrificial portion.
- a plurality of small holes independent of the grooves are provided in the wide division to reduce the shear rigidity of the division in the ground plane in each direction, so that the wide division is dragged in the braking direction.
- the load of force can be advantageously reduced under high flexibility, and early wear can be advantageously reduced.
- the change of the total volume of the small holes can be realized by, for example, changing the opening size or depth thereof, changing the arrangement pitch, and the like.
- the tread structure including the area where small holes are formed in the wide-split section is reduced under the action of a load of 40% of the maximum load capacity at a camber angle of 10.5.
- the load is smaller than that of the front wheels, such as the rear wheels when braking an FF vehicle. Therefore, even when the contact width becomes narrow, the effect of reducing rigidity under the action of the small hole can be effectively exhibited.
- the side surface on the tread end side has a concave curved surface shape with the center of curvature outside the cross-sectional contour line.
- the center line of the rib as the central region land row located closest to the tire equator line is aligned with the tire equatorial line.
- the ribs shall be biased toward the inside of the mounting, and the rib shall be provided with a plurality of narrow grooves extending in the width direction of the tread.
- the inclination angle of the narrow groove in the width direction is an average angle in the range of 5 to 55 ° and the groove width is 2 mm or less.
- the center of the tread that provides the highest tread rigidity by increasing the belt tension which is the so-called hoop effect, is maximized.
- the rigidity in the tread width direction is high and the high tension part of the belt
- the groove width is set to 2 mm or less is that only a small groove width is sufficient to absorb the circumferential deformation of rubber, and if it exceeds 2 mm, the pattern becomes larger. This is due to an increase in noise and a greater decrease in rib width stiffness. If the angle of the narrow groove is set to 5 ° or more, the pattern noise due to the contact of the groove edge with the road surface cannot be denied unless it is less than 5 °. The upper limit of 55 ° is set to 55 ° If the angle exceeds °, the rigidity in the width direction of the rib becomes too low.
- such narrow grooves in the width direction are separated from each other in the depth direction, for example, in the width direction of the groove, the circumferential direction of the tread, or the like, with the middle portion in the extending direction as a boundary. It is formed to be flat or curved. Note that this In this case, three or more flat planar portions inclined in a direction away from each other can be formed in one narrow groove.

- a plurality of such narrow grooves in the width direction can be terminated at least partially at both ends in the extending direction in the ribs as the row of land portions.
- the rigidity in the width direction of the rib is kept high, and the steering stability can be further improved.
- the allowance of the rubber escape deformation in the circumferential direction is particularly necessary at the center in the width direction of the rib where there is no rubber escape, so even if a narrow groove in the width direction is extended there, while it is possible for the rubber to deform in the outward direction of the ribs, the rigidity in the width direction is low near the side walls of the ribs. It is possible to allow the rubber to escape in the circumferential direction while suppressing the decrease.
- the center line of the center area land row closest to the tire equator line is biased toward the inside of the mounting with respect to the tire equator line, and the rib is
- a plurality of recesses having a substantially elliptical shape including an oval shape are provided, and the long axis of each recess is set at 5 to 45 ° with respect to the width direction of the tread.
- the rib is extended at an angle within the range, and the shoulder land row side inside the mounting of the rib is defined by a circumferential main groove extending linearly.
- the sipe when a sipe extending in the longitudinal direction of the dent is provided in at least a part of the plurality of substantially elliptical dents and is provided on the side wall of the rib, the sipe is sealed in the dent when grounded and compressed. Since air can be exhausted to the outside through the sipe, the air in the depression is confined, has a high compression pressure, and is prevented from being released when kicking out and producing noise.
- the ribs in the central region land row closest to the equator line of the tire are partitioned by a pair of linear main grooves extending linearly, and the rib located on the shoulder land row side inside the mounting. It is preferable that the width of the directional main groove be wider than the width of the circumferential main groove located on the side of the shoulder land portion row on the outer side of the mounting.
- the maximum width is the largest in comparison with the maximum width and the maximum length of the contact shape during actual load rolling of the tire. According to the knowledge that the circumferential main groove drains more water when the ground contact length is longer than when the ground contact length is longer, as in the former, the maximum width is smaller than the maximum length. When it becomes larger, for example, by providing more circumferential grooves at the center of the tread where the streamline direction of the drainage is almost circumferential, the drainage is improved and It is possible to improve the easiness.
- the circumferential main groove forms an air column tube equal to the grounding length in the grounding plane, and causes air column resonance sound. Even if the dimensions of the column tube are the same, the size depends on the position of the tread in the width direction. The inner side of the mounting where the tread contact length becomes longer under the negative camber from the tread center position The new knowledge that the air column resonance sound at this point decreases at a greater rate than the increase rate of the resonance sound outside the mounting where the contact length becomes shorter toward the tread edge side has been obtained.
- the circumferential main groove located on the shoulder land row side on the inner side of the mounting where the tread length of the tread is long is made wider than the other circumferential main grooves, so that resonance noise is generated. Hold-out opening resistance Bring on.
- each block defined by the lateral groove in the land row have a surface height facing at least one of the block edge and the central area of the block.
- a tire equipped with a block provided with such a peripheral ridge can be loaded without providing a camber corner. In the case of rolling, when the block is depressed, a loud impact sound is generated due to the inclined raised surface of the peripheral raised portion colliding with the road surface.
- peripheral ridges described above are provided on the shoulder lock on the outer side of the tire to be used with the negative camber, the load on the outer shoulder block is small during straight running, so the load on the outer side is small. Addition of noise due to the presence of the ridge can be effectively prevented.
- At least the height of the stepping edge and the height of the kick-out edge of the block defined by the inclined groove in the second inner land row are set in the tread width direction.
- the tall portions are extended in the tread circumferential direction while changing the position in the tread width direction according to the circumferential position.
- the outer part of the tire When a negative camber is applied to the tire, the outer part of the tire has a shorter ground contact length and lower contact pressure, so the outer part of the tire is affected by the impact noise caused by the block's impact on the road surface. While the occurrence is relatively small, the contact length and the contact pressure are both large in the area inside the attachment, and the rate of occurrence of the impact sound increases. In this case, since the land row in the central area is a rib, there is no noise due to the block abutment, and the inner shoulder land row generally has a small number of lateral grooves, so this is also the impact sound. While the rate of occurrence is small, the noise generated by the block in the second inner land row, which is defined by the inclined grooves, is particularly large.
- the height of the stepping edge and the height of the kicking edge are made different in the direction of the tread width, and Extend in the tread circumferential direction while changing the position in the tread width direction according to the circumferential position.
- the kick edge is gradually separated from the road surface over time to reduce noise generation in the later stage of contact with the ground, and third, the height extending in the circumferential direction of the tread, Based on changing the position in the tread width direction of each part with high tread width in accordance with the circumferential position, the compressive force generated in the block due to the rolling of the tire is distributed and supported by the entire block, and is generated by the block. Noise level can be suppressed.
- each of the tall portions extending in the circumferential direction of the tread is continuous in the circumferential direction of the tread, the noise from the point where the block comes into contact with the road surface until it leaves the road surface will be reduced.
- the level can be kept low.
- the height is gradually reduced toward the tapered tip at an acute corner of a block or the like defined by at least one of the lateral groove and the inclined groove extending at an average angle of 45 ° or more with respect to the tread width direction.
- An inclined surface composed of a flat surface, a convex curved surface, etc. is provided.
- the second inner land row which is ribbed and located adjacent to the land row in the central area and is formed with inclined grooves to improve drainage performance
- Increasing the rigidity in the tread width direction is effective in improving the steering stability.
- reducing the difference in rigidity with respect to the rib is effective in bringing the increase in cornering force due to the increase in the slip angle given to the tire closer to a linear shape.
- the slope of the block in the second inner land row is increased to increase the rigidity of the block in the tread width direction and to further improve drainage performance. I do.
- a protruding part When a protruding part is provided, it occurs due to the edge of the land part, which is more rigid than the groove part such as a lateral groove, coming into contact with the road surface during tire rolling.
- the decrease in rigidity at the groove such as the lateral groove is effectively compensated for by the protrusion into the main groove in the circumferential direction, and the rigidity of the part where the groove is formed and the rigidity of the land such as the block
- the above-described impact sound can be advantageously suppressed, and this is the same regardless of whether or not a negative chamber is provided to the tire.
- the depth of the inclined grooves provided in the second inner land portion row which extends at an average angle of 45 ° or more with respect to the tread width direction, is changed from the tire equatorial plane side to the tread end side. For example, gradually or stepwise deepen.
- the cross-sectional area of the slope In order to improve drainage efficiency by the inclined grooves provided in the second inner land row and contributing to the improvement of drainage performance, the cross-sectional area of the slope must be gradually increased toward the end of the tread or a sufficiently large constant Although it is preferable that the second inner ridge row adjacent to the center area land row contributes to the improvement of the steering stability, as described above, it is preferable that Since it is effective to secure large rigidity in the tread width direction of the blocks in the train row, the purpose here is to achieve both high anti-hydroplaning performance and steering stability at a high level.
- the cross-sectional area is increased toward the tread edge by making the depth of the inclined groove shallower on the equator line side and then deeper toward the tread edge side.
- the extending directions of the inclined grooves provided in the second inner land portion row with respect to the tire equator line may be the same direction, or alternatively, may be alternately opposite in the tread circumferential direction.
- the inclined grooves in the second inner land row greatly contribute to the improvement of drainage performance, and the tread pattern specifies the rotation direction.
- the directional pattern is a directional pattern, the inclined groove extends in the tire equatorial line at a predetermined fixed direction, and the desired function of the inclined groove can be sufficiently exhibited.
- the tread pattern has no directivity
- the tires of the left and right wheels are relatively rotated in the opposite directions.
- the extending direction of the inclined groove is alternately opposite to the tire equator line in the circumferential direction of the tread as in the latter case.
- the integral value of the rigidity in the width direction of the tread in the respective land rows defined by the circumferential main grooves over the entire grounding length is calculated between the adjacent land rows.
- the value shall be within 50% of the larger value.
- the rigidity of the shoulder land row on the inner side of the mounting which is divided into two parts in the width direction by the circumferential narrow groove, is the rigidity of only the wide divided part closer to the center than the narrow groove.
- the “integral value over the entire contact length” is, for example, the sum of the rigidity in the width direction of each land section row divided by the circumferential groove over the entire perimeter of the tread,
- the value obtained by dividing the contact length of the row by the perimeter of the land row after filling with air pressure can be obtained by multiplying the above sum. More specifically, for example, if one land row consists of 60 monopitch blocks, the widthwise stiffness of one block is determined and multiplied by 60. By calculating the sum of the stiffnesses and multiplying it by (the number of blocks in contact with the block 60), the integrated ground over the entire length of the pile can be obtained.
- the total rigidity can be obtained by calculating the widthwise rigidity of the block of each dimension, multiplying it by the number of blocks of each dimension in one round, and adding the rigidity for each dimension. .
- the belt tension on the equatorial plane often becomes the highest, and the tread stiffness based on the belt tension also becomes maximum in this part.
- the longest part of the ground contact length is also located on the equatorial plane, and on the equatorial plane, the belt rigidity and grounding length Since both are maximized, the tread on the equatorial plane is where the maximum cornering force is generated.
- the difference in the rigidity in the width direction between the adjacent mating member rows was set to the larger value of 5 0% or less.
- the tires described above are mounted on the applicable rim, filled with the specified air pressure, and loaded with a mass equivalent to the maximum load capacity, and the effective contact area of either the inside or outside of the mounting is
- the other is larger than the other, and in the prescribed air pressure filling posture, the radial distance from the tread outer surface tangent perpendicular to the equatorial plane of the tire to each tread tread edge is smaller than the effective tread area.
- the ratio of the effective contact area is large (three / three). And the ratio of the magnitude of the radial distance (H large / H small)
- A is 1.0 to 1.4
- the tire located outside the cornering increases the load and increases the ground contact area.
- the rigidity of the land on the outer part of the tire tread is higher than that of the inner part on the tire. It is widely practiced to increase the cornering force by increasing the size. The specific configuration for this is to reduce the negative rate of the outer part of the mounting and increase the rigidity of the land, while increasing the rigidity of the inner part of the mounting. It is common to increase the negative rate to ensure drainage.
- the ground contact area of the outer part of the mounting becomes larger than that of the inner part of the mounting.
- the widthwise shearing force that the tread surface receives from the road surface is greatly different between the inside and outside of the mounting, and this difference is caused by the conicity as if a camber corner was added to the tire. It has been found that a lateral force is applied to the tyre in the outward direction as a cause of the force.
- A is 1.0 1.4
- A is smaller than 1.0, a cosity force in the opposite direction is likely to be generated, and if it is larger than 1.4, the effect of canceling the conicity force is reduced.
- the connecting portion between the wheel rim and the disc when the connecting portion between the wheel rim and the disc is located outside the vehicle to be mounted with respect to the equatorial plane of the tire mounted on the rim, the road surface input to the tire is reduced. This was done to effectively control transmission to the axle.
- connection between the rim and the disc is located on the outside of the vehicle with respect to the tire equatorial plane, when viewed in the radial cross section of the wheel, the protruding portion of the rim toward the inside of the vehicle is the disc.
- the rigidity of the wheel is particularly low against radial input from the tire side to the bead seat located inside the vehicle from the tire side of the rim.
- the radial input causes a particularly large deformation of the wheel itself, and the deformation of the wheel is transmitted to the axle, which contributes to axle vibration and the like.
- the transmission of road surface input to the rim must be suppressed.
- the tire-wheel assembly according to the present invention is obtained by dividing the above-described pneumatic tire, in particular, the shoulder land row on the inner side of the mounting into two parts in the width direction by a narrow groove extending in the circumferential direction.
- a tire in which one of the divided portions located on the tread edge side is a narrow rib, and a plurality of small holes independent of the groove are provided in the other wide divided portion where a lateral groove may be formed.
- the transmission rate of tire vibration transmitted from the tread portion of the tire to the vehicle body via the right and left side wall portions, the left and right bead portions, and the wheels to the vehicle body is examined.
- the transmissivity through the rim end located on the front side of the disc and the vibration transmissibility through the rim end located on the back side of the wheel disc are different, and which side is more likely to cause axle vibration
- the wheel position was determined by the connection position between the wheel rim and the disk, regardless of the offset of the wheel disk from the rim and, consequently, the tire equatorial plane. For example, if their connection position is located outside the tire equatorial plane, In this case, the vibration inside the opposite mounting tends to generate vibration on the axle.
- the compression rigidity is reduced by the small holes, and the reaction force against the input to the tire due to uneven road surface etc. is reduced, so that the vibration is transmitted to the axle. And the quietness of the vehicle interior can be improved.
- the shoulder land row on the outer side even if the rigidity is large and the reaction force against the tire input becomes large, the transmission rate of vibration from the wheel to the axle is low in this part, The vibration of the axle does not increase and the quietness is not impaired.
