Pneumatic tire

摘要

A pneumatic tire has a shoulder land portion including a tread edge and a plurality of lateral grooves which are open to an outer wall of the shoulder land portion in a tread surface. One end in a tire circumferential direction of the outer wall is positioned on an inner side in a tire width direction with respect to another end between the lateral grooves which are adjacent to each other. A vacancy communicating with the lateral groove from the one end of the outer wall is formed so as to face the outer wall. A pawl portion protruding in the tire circumferential direction is provided in a wall surface of the lateral groove which is close to the other end of the outer wall. A height of the pawl portion from a bottom of the lateral groove is gradually decreased toward a leading end.

1. A pneumatic tire comprising:
a shoulder land portion including a tread edge; and a plurality of lateral grooves which are open to an outer wall of the shoulder land portion and are arranged so as to be spaced from each other in a tire circumferential direction, the shoulder land portion and the lateral grooves being formed in a tread surface, wherein the tire is a square shape in which the tread edge is angulated as a shoulder shape, the tread edge is a linear ridge line between a top surface of the shoulder land portion and the outer wall, is located at an outermost position in a tire width direction of a tread grounding surface, and is inclined with respect to the tire circumferential direction, one end in the tire circumferential direction of the outer wall is positioned on an inner side in a tire width direction with respect to another end between the lateral grooves which are adjacent to each other in the tire circumferential direction, and a vacancy communicating with the lateral groove from the one end of the outer wall is formed so as to face the outer wall, and a pawl portion protruding in the tire circumferential direction is provided in a wall surface of the lateral groove which is close to the other end of the outer wall, the pawl portion being positioned in a tire width direction at the inside of the tread edge and having an outer surface in the tire width direction which extends in an extending direction of the tread edge, and a height of the pawl portion from a bottom of the lateral groove is gradually decreased toward a leading end.
