Tire with tread having continuous rib

摘要

A tyre for a motor vehicle includes a tread and two shoulders. The tread includes a circumferential row of blocks between first and second circumferential grooves. Each of the blocks is delimited by a section of the first circumferential groove and by first and second transverse grooves that terminate at a common vertex spaced from the second circumferential groove. The common vertex is separated from the second circumferential groove by a continuous circumferential tread rib. The second transverse groove delimits one of the blocks and is separated from the first transverse groove that delimits a circumferentially adjacent block by a solid tread portion. The solid tread portion extends from the first circumferential groove to the continuous circumferential tread rib. The common vertex of each block is located at a position axially intermediate the first circumferential groove and a portion of one of the transverse grooves that delimits the block.

1. A tyre for a motor vehicle, comprising:
a tread; and two shoulders;
wherein the tread comprises a circumferential row of blocks disposed between first and second circumferential grooves,wherein each of the blocks is delimited by a section of the first circumferential groove and by first and second transverse grooves that terminate at a common vertex spaced from the second circumferential groove,wherein the first and second transverse grooves of the circumferential row of blocks are oriented in a first direction along a longitudinal direction of the tread,wherein the common vertex is separated from the second circumferential groove by a continuous circumferential tread rib,wherein the second transverse groove delimits a first one of the blocks and is separated from the first transverse groove that delimits a circumferentially adjacent block by a solid tread portion,wherein at least one of the first and second transverse grooves comprises an increasing width in a direction from the common vertex toward the first circumferential groove,wherein the solid tread portion extends from the first circumferential groove to the continuous circumferential tread rib,wherein the solid tread portion forms a single body with the continuous circumferential tread rib, spacing the first block and the circumferentially adjacent block from each other, andwherein the common vertex of each block is located at a position axially intermediate the first circumferential groove and a portion of one of the transverse grooves that delimits the block.
