METHOD FOR IMPROVING PERFORMANCE OF STUDDED TYRE AND STUDDED TYRE PRODUCED ACCORDING TO SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B60C11/16 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to automotive industry. Tyre comprises tread band (2) in which is formed a plurality of holes (4) in which a corresponding plurality of studs (10) are housed by engagement. Each of said studs comprises base (13) housed in a radially internal position in one of the holes. Method comprises opposing the oscillatory movements of stud (10) in hole (4) about an axis substantially parallel to axis of rotation (X) of the tyre, by providing, at base (13), front abutment region (16a) and rear abutment region (17a) which are opposite each other, thereby providing mutual abutment between base (13) and tread band (2), in which provision is made to configure base (13) asymmetrically with respect to radial plane (R) of tyre passing through longitudinal axis (Z) of stud, in such a way that front abutment region (16a) is larger than rear abutment region (17a), in order to increase the retaining action of the tread band on the studs.

EFFECT: technical result is an improvement in the performance characteristics of a studded tyre.
