Publication number: 20090032157Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a tire for a construction vehicle which suppresses a trouble of the tire by enhancing a heat-radiation characteristic of a tire center portion. A tire for a construction vehicle according to the present invention is provided with a plurality of lug grooves 22 in tread shoulder regions located at the both sides in the width direction of the tire. A plurality of widthwise-extending narrow grooves 24 extending generally along the width direction of the tire and having an end in the width direction of the tire terminated in the tread are disposed in a tire center portion C. This may improve the wear resistance characteristic and to enhance the heat-radiation characteristic by suppressing the decrease of the rigidity of the land portion. In addition, an equatorial shallow groove 26 extending in the circumferential direction of the tire is disposed on the tire equator CL.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2006Publication date: February 5, 2009Applicant: BRIDGESTONE CORPORATIONInventor: Takumi Inoue

Patent number: 6736174Abstract: In a pneumatic tire of the present invention, a tread reinforcing rubber layer composed of a rubber having larger tensile modulus of elasticity than that of a rubber composing the tread rubber layer and is less stretchable is provided in a thickness direction central area of a tread rubber layer. Because the tread reinforcing rubber layer diminishes the amount of lateral expansion and the amount of vertical compressive deformation when the tread rubber layer contacts the ground, generation of heat in the tread rubber layer can be suppressed. Therefore, in the present invention, the unique tread structure reliably suppresses heat-generation and the rubber of the tread rubber layer exhibits excellent tire wear resistance. As a result, suppression of heat-generation and high tire resistance can readily be achieved simultaneously.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2001Date of Patent: May 18, 2004Assignee: Bridgestone CorporationInventors: Takumi Inoue, Tomohiro Kusano
