AIR TIRE WITH TREAD ASYMMETRIC PATTERN Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC B60C11/117 B60C11/04 B60C11/13 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to automotive industry, namely, to tread pattern. Tire features tread asymmetric patter wherein ratio of actual area of contact to total area for zone 2o of outer side is larger than that for inner side zone 2i but with minor difference characteristic of water removal for right and left wheel tires. Said tire has tread surface 2 divided by four lengthwise grooves 3 and 4 into central area 5 of contact with soil, mid areas 6,6 of contact with soil and shoulder areas 7,7 of contact with soil. Said mid area 6o and shoulder area 7o in outer side zone 2o are divided by outer mid transverse grooves 8o and outer shoulder transverse grooves 10o into blocks 9o and blocks 11o. Mid transverse grooves 8o are inclined in opposite direction to inclination of shoulder transverse grooves 10o relative to tire axial direction while transverse grooves 8o and 10o are inclined at angle θmo of 5-45° and at angle θso over 0° and not over 40°, respectively.

EFFECT: better stability in rainy and dry weather.
