Pneumatic Tire
A pneumatic tire includes center lug grooves disposed at intervals in a tire circumferential direction that extend crossing a tire equator line and include a first groove turning portion and a second groove turning portion; shoulder lug grooves disposed in the intervals between the center lug grooves in the tire circumferential direction extending outward in the tire width direction, an inner end in the tire width direction being disposed outward of an end of the center lug groove in the tire width direction; a pair of circumferential main grooves to which the ends of the center lug grooves and the inner ends of the shoulder lug grooves in the tire width direction alternately connect; and a circumferential secondary groove disposed around the entire circumference of the pneumatic tire that intersects the center lug grooves between the first groove turning portion and the second groove turning portion.
TIRE COMPRISING A TREAD
A tire comprises a tread provided with two edges (25A, 25B) and with a center (C) dividing it into two parts of equal width with sets of blocks (21A, 21B). Each set of blocks (21A, 21B) comprises three zones: at the edge (211), at the center (213) and intermediate (212). Each set of blocks (21A, 21B) comprises a set of chamfers (26A, 26B, 26C) which extends over at least the edge zone (211) and the central zone (213) of the set of blocks (21A, 21B). The width LC1 of the set of chamfers (26A, 26B, 26C) over the edge zone (211) is different from the width LC2 of the set of chamfers (26A, 26B, 26C) over the intermediate zone (212), the widths LC1 and LC2 being comprised between 0.5 mm and 2.5 mm.
TIRE COMPRISING A TREAD
A tire comprises a directional tread provided with two edges (25A, 25B) and with a center (C) dividing it into two parts of substantially equal width. The tread comprises, on one of these two parts, blocks (21A, 21B) succeeding one another in a circumferential direction. Each block (21A, 21B) has a leading-edge face (26) and a trailing-edge face (27). The tire comprises, for at least one set of blocks (21A, 21B), at least one set of cavities (29) extending over the trailing-edge face (27) of the set of blocks (21A, 21B). The tread has a bottom surface (24) radially on the inside of the tread, the set of blocks (21A) having a height H, wherein the set of cavities (29) is between the bottom surface (24) of the tread and half of the height H.
Airless flexible tire with Z-tread track pattern
An airless flexible tire including traction lug pairs each having a forward facing traction lug and a rearward facing traction lug cooperatively forming a divided Z or reverse divided Z shape. Each traction lug includes a lateral section and a central section. The central section extends from an end of the lateral section so as to straddle a centerline of the airless flexible tire and includes a number of discrete sidewalls. The discrete sidewalls are different sizes and angled relative to each other. The central sections of paired traction lugs form a space dividing portions of the Z or reverse Z shape. The central sections of nearest traction lugs of adjacent traction lug pairs form a space dividing the adjacent traction lug pairs.
Tire Comprising a Tread
Tire with a tread provided with two edges (25A, 25B) and with a centre (C) dividing it into two parts of equal width with sets of blocks (21A, 21B). Each set of blocks (21A, 21B) has three zones: at the edge (211), at the centre (213) and intermediate (212). Each set of blocks (21A, 21B) has a set of chamfers (26A, 26B, 26C) which extends over at least the edge zone (211) and the central zone (213) of the set of blocks (21A, 21B). The width LC2 of the set of chamfers (26A, 26B, 26C) over the intermediate zone (212) is different from the width LC3 of the set of chamfers (26A, 26B, 26C) over the central zone (213), said widths LC2 and LC3 being comprised between 0.5 mm and 2.5 mm.
IRRIGATION TIRE
A non directional pneumatic tire is provided for an agricultural irrigation system. The tire includes first and second side walls and a radially outer wall defining an internal inflation chamber. A non directional tread pattern is defined on the tire and includes a plurality of longitudinal protrusions positioned substantially parallel to a rotational axis of the tire. The longitudinal protrusions are arranged in first and second rows extending from the first and second side walls toward and across the equatorial plane of the tire. The longitudinal protrusions of the first and second rows circumferentially alternate with each other and there is a circumferential spacing between adjacent longitudinal protrusions at the equatorial plane so that no portion of one longitudinal protrusion circumferentially coincides with or overlaps another.
TIRE
On a tread of tire, an inclined width direction groove, a plurality of zigzag sipes, an inclined width direction groove and a plurality of zigzag sipes are repeatedly formed in the tire circumferential direction. The inclined width direction groove communicates with the circumferential direction groove, one end of the sipe portion communicates with the narrow groove portion, and the other end of the sipe portion terminates in the rib-like block without communicating with the circumferential direction groove. The inclined width direction groove communicates with the circumferential direction groove, one end of the sipe portion communicates with the narrow groove portion, and the other end of the sipe portion terminates in the rib-like block without communicating with the circumferential direction groove.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
Provided is a pneumatic tire including: a plurality of main grooves each having a zigzag shape and extending in a tire circumferential direction; and a land portion defined by the main grooves adjacent to each other and having a rib structure that is continuous with the tire circumferential direction. The land portion includes first and second lug grooves having a semi-closed structure. A maximum length L21 of the first lug groove in a tire width direction has the relationship 1.30≤L21/L22≤2.30 with respect to a maximum length L22 of the second lug groove.
MOTORCYCLE TIRE
A motorcycle tire comprises a tread portion comprising substantially triangular first regions each defined as being surrounded by a first main oblique groove, a second main oblique groove and a first tread edge. Each of the first regions is divided by sub grooves into blocks which include a largest block whose ground contacting surface has a maximum area, and a smallest block whose ground contacting surface has a minimum area in a range from 40% to 80% of the maximum area.
TIRE
A tire includes a tread having a shoulder region, a shoulder transverse groove being fixedly set in the shoulder region, and a shoulder block row configured by aligning the shoulder blocks in a tire-circumferential direction, in which the shoulder transverse groove has an angle formed by a groove wall and a vertical line drawn from a groove opening end position to a tread surface of the shoulder block within a range of 10 to 20 degrees, and the groove wall and groove bottom are connected by a concave surface with a radius of curvature of at least 6 mm and no more than 15 mm.
