Technical Field
The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire.
Background
Conventionally, there is known a pneumatic tire in which a plurality of stone ejectors each having a button shape are provided in grooves formed in a tread (for example, see patent document 1).
However, in the above-described conventional pneumatic tire, the projections formed in the grooves are only stone ejectors for preventing small stones or the like from being fitted into the grooves. In the region where the stone ejector is formed, there is a line without the stone ejector when viewed in the tire circumferential direction. At this line, a distance (thickness) from the groove bottom to the belt as an internal structural member cannot be sufficiently secured, and cracks are likely to occur along the tire circumferential direction. Further, simply making the groove shallower and making the wall thickness thicker deteriorates drainage or sludge discharge.
Disclosure of Invention
Technical problem to be solved
The present invention has been made in an effort to provide a pneumatic tire that can prevent deterioration of drainage and mud drainage at a lateral groove and can suppress generation and growth of cracks at a groove bottom.
(II) technical scheme
The present invention provides a pneumatic tire in which a tread portion includes a plurality of blocks each formed of a plurality of main grooves extending in a tire circumferential direction and a plurality of lateral grooves intersecting the main grooves and extending in a tire width direction, the lateral grooves each have a reinforcing region in which a plurality of protrusions are formed at a groove bottom, and at least one of the protrusions is arranged on an arbitrary line extending in the tire circumferential direction in the reinforcing region.
According to this structure, with the plurality of protrusions provided in the reinforcing region, the distance from the groove bottom to the belt can be ensured even on an arbitrary line extending in the tire circumferential direction. Therefore, the generation and growth of cracks in the tire circumferential direction can be suppressed. Further, since the projection is formed of a plurality of projections, the drainage property and the sludge discharge property are not deteriorated.
Preferably, the reinforcing region is provided at a middle portion in the tire circumferential direction of the groove bottom of the lateral groove.
According to this structure, as compared with the structure provided over the entire area, deterioration of drainage and mud drainage can be minimized, and the effect of preventing frictional contact generated when the blocks divided in the circumferential direction are grounded can be maintained at the lateral grooves, so that the occurrence of cracks can be effectively suppressed.
Preferably, a groove bottom of the lateral groove is formed by a bottom surface between blocks adjacent in the tire circumferential direction and a curved surface connecting a side surface of the block and the bottom surface, and the protruding portion is provided on the bottom surface.
According to this structure, the tire can be prevented from being cracked more effectively without being affected by the deformation of the tire block during the grounding.
Preferably, the reinforcing region is provided at a middle portion in the tire width direction of a groove bottom of the lateral groove.
According to this structure, the reinforcement function at the tank bottom can be improved, and desired drainage and sludge discharge can be ensured.
Preferably, at least any one of the protrusions is arranged on any line extending in the tire width direction in the reinforcing region.
According to this structure, the generation and growth of cracks in the tire width direction can be suppressed.
Preferably, the blocks dividing said transverse grooves are shoulder blocks.
According to this configuration, it is possible to effectively prevent the occurrence of cracks in the lateral grooves formed between the shoulder blocks having the largest ground contact surface deformation amount.
Preferably, the outer surface of the shoulder block is formed of two curved surfaces having different radii of curvature in a tire meridian cross section, and the reinforcing region is located in a region extending in the tire circumferential direction and including a boundary line between the two curved surfaces.
According to this structure, it is possible to effectively prevent the occurrence of cracks in the lateral grooves corresponding to the portions of the shoulder blocks where the amount of deformation is the greatest.
Preferably, the protruding portion formed in the reinforcing region is constituted by a bead extending in the tire width direction, and a plurality of protrusions located on both sides of the bead.
According to this configuration, the mud drainage performance can be ensured by the bead extending in the tire width direction, the rubber thickness of the groove bottom can be ensured by the protrusions arranged on both sides of the bead from the belt, and the drainage performance at the time of tire wear can be maintained by forming a plurality of protrusions.
(III) advantageous effects
According to the present invention, the plurality of protrusions provided in the reinforcing region can sufficiently secure the distance between the groove bottom of the lateral groove and the belt as the internal structural member, thereby suppressing the occurrence and growth of cracks. Further, since the plurality of projections are provided, desired drainage and sludge discharge properties can be ensured.
