Abstract
A pneumatic tire comprising a carcass 11, at least one inclined belt layer 13 having a cord extending inclined at an angle of 30° or more relative to the tire circumferential direction, and a tread 15 arranged outward in the tire radial direction of the inclined belt layer 13, wherein a circumferential cord layer 14 arranged inward in the tire radial direction of the tread 15 has a high-rigidity region and a low-rigidity region and the high-rigidity region has a higher negative ratio in a ground contact width of the tread 15 than the low-rigidity region.
Claims4
A pneumatic tire comprising a carcass toroidally extending between a. pair of bead portions, at least one inclined belt layer arranged passing through a tire equator outward in the tire radial direction of a crown portion of the carcass, and having a cord extending inclined at an angle of 30° or more with respect to a tire circumferential direction, and a tread arranged outward in the tire radial direction of the inclined belt layer, wherein
- at least one circumferential cord layer having a cord extending along the tire circumferential direction is arranged inward in the tire radial direction of the tread,
- the circumferential cord layer has a high-rigidity region which is a region including the tire equator and in which the rigidity in the tire circumferential direction per unit width in the tire width direction is high, and a low-rigidity region which is a region on each side in the tire width direction of the high-rigidity region and in which the rigidity in the tire circumferential direction per unit width in the tire width direction is low, and
- the high-rigidity region has a higher negative ratio in a ground contact width of the tread than the low-rigidity region.
A pneumatic tire comprising a carcass toroidally extending between a pair of bead portions, at least one inclined belt layer arranged outward in a tire radial direction of a crown portion of the carcass and having a cord extending inclined relative to a tire circumferential direction, and a tread arranged outward in the tire radial direction of the inclined belt layer, wherein
- at least one circumferential cord layer having a cord extending along the tire circumferential direction is arranged inward in the tire radial direction of the tread,
- the inclined belt layer includes at least a wide-width inclined belt layer having a relatively wide width in the tire width direction and a narrow-width inclined belt layer having a relatively narrow width width in the tire width direction, both passing through the tire equator, and when an inclination angle relative to the tire circumferential direction of the cord of the wide-width inclined belt layer is θ1 and an inclination angle relative to the tire circumferential direction of the cord of the narrow-width inclined belt layer is θ2,
- 30°≤θ1≤85°, 10°≤θ2≤30°, and, θ1>θ2 are satisfied,
- the inclined belt layer has a high-rigidity region which is a region including the tire equator and in which the rigidity in the tire circumferential direction per unit width in the tire width direction is high, and a low-rigidity region which is a region on each side in the tire width direction of the high-rigidity region and in which the rigidity in the tire circumferential direction per unit width in the tire width direction is low, and
- the high-rigidity region has a higher negative ratio in a ground contact width of the tread than the low-rigidity region.
