Disclosed is a tire stud comprising a stainless steel body with a flange and a blind hole and further comprising a spike installed in said hole, wherein the cross-sectional shape of the hole is different from the cross-sectional shape of the spike at least at one of: the opening, the lower surface of the spike, and a depth between the opening lower surface of the spike; whereby only protrusions of the spike are attached to the side wall of the hole with friction joints where the cross-sectional shape of the hole is different from the cross-sectional shape of the spike.

A stud pin includes a tip, a body portion, and a lower flange. A flange profile shape of the lower flange is an anisotropic shape includes short sides and long sides of different lengths, and includes four or more first flange protrusion portions that project in the longitudinal direction parallel with the long sides and two second flange protrusion portions that project in the lateral direction parallel with the short sides. A body profile shape of the body portion is a shape including body linear portions extending in a linear manner. The body linear portions are disposed facing a portion of the flange profile shape between two adjacent protrusion portions of the first flange protrusion portion and the second flange protrusion portion along the outer circumference of the flange profile shape.

A stud pin includes a buried base portion embedded in a tread portion of a pneumatic tire and a tip portion protruding from the road contact surface of the tread portion when the buried base portion is embedded in the tread portion. A tip surface of the tip portion includes: a first protrusion portion and a second protrusion portion longer in the tire width direction than in the tire circumferential direction and protruding toward one side in the tire circumferential direction; a first recessed portion disposed between the first and second protrusion portions and recessed toward the other side in the tire circumferential direction; a third protrusion portion and a fourth protrusion portion protruding toward the other side in the tire circumferential direction; and a second recessed portion disposed between the third and fourth protrusion portions and recessed toward the one side in the tire circumferential direction.

The present technology provides a stud pin. When a lower flange of the stud pin is viewed in an extending direction of a trunk portion, an edge defining a peripheral shape of the lower flange has a first side of a shape protruding roundly toward an outer side of the lower flange, protruding in a first direction orthogonal to the extending direction of the trunk portion, and a second side provided on an opposite side to the first side with respect to a tip disposal position where the tip is provided. The second side extends in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and the extending direction, and is provided with a recess that is recessed toward an inner side of the lower flange.

A stud pin includes a tip including a tip end surface configured to come into contact with a road surface and a trunk portion that supports the tip and extends in one direction. The trunk portion includes an upper flange disposed at a first end of the trunk portion, the tip being fixed to the upper flange, and a lower flange disposed at a position to a side opposite the upper flange of the trunk portion. An upper end surface of the upper flange from which the tip protrudes includes a recessed surface, the recessed surface including a smooth inclined surface recessing in a curved manner or a linear manner toward the lower flange with advancement toward a protruding base portion of the tip.

A stud pin includes a tip, a body portion that supports the tip, and a lower flange connected to the body portion at an end on an opposite side to the end surface. A profile shape of the lower flange and a body profile shape of the body portion are anisotropic shape. The flange profile shape includes four or more first flange protrusion portions projecting toward the longitudinal direction and two second flange protrusion portions projecting toward the lateral direction. The body profile shape includes four or more first body protrusion portions projecting toward the lateral direction and two second body protrusion portions projecting toward the longitudinal direction.

This invention relates to a tire having a directional tread pattern with a first shoulder region, a central region, and a second shoulder region, the tire having a plurality of studs in the first shoulder region, the second shoulder region, and the central region; wherein at least some of the plurality of the studs in the central shoulder region extends longitudinally into the tread member in a direction inclined relative to the normal of the outer surface of the tread member by an angle in the circumferential direction of the tire, and wherein at least some of the studs in the first shoulder region and the second shoulder region extend longitudinally into the tread in a direction inclined relative to the normal of the outer surface of the tread in a direction different from the studs in the central region.

A stud pin includes a tip including an end surface that comes into contact with a road surface, a body portion that supports the tip; and a lower flange connected to the body portion at an end on an opposite side to the end surface. A profile shape of the lower flange is an anisotropic shape in which, of imaginary rectangles circumscribing the profile shape, a first smallest rectangle with the shortest side of its four sides being the shortest and/or a second smallest rectangle with the longest side of its four sides being the shortest includes short sides and long sides of different lengths. The profile shape includes four or more first protrusion portions that project in the longitudinal direction parallel with the long sides and two second protrusion portions that project in the lateral direction parallel with the short sides.

Segmented tires employ segments featuring cooperating recesses and protrusions at opposing sides thereof for mating of the segments with one another in the assembled tire body. Cleated tires with embedded cleats of greater rigidity than the tire body material provide improved traction in muddy or other slippery conditions while the compressible tire body smooths out the ride harshness of the tire. Mounting elements are also embedded within the segments of the tire body for secure mounting and reliable retention of the segments.

A stud pin includes a tip including an end surface configured to come into contact with a road surface, a body portion configured to support the tip, and a lower flange. The flange profile shape of the lower flange is an anisotropic shape. The flange profile shape includes four or more first flange protrusion portions that project in the longitudinal direction and two second flange protrusion portions that project in the lateral direction. A tip profile shape of the tip is a shape including tip linear portions extending in a linear manner. At least one of the tip linear portions extends along a portion of the flange profile shape between two adjacent protrusion portions of the first flange protrusion portion and the second flange protrusion portion along the outer circumference of the flange profile shape.
