Pneumatic tire
A rib-like land section partitioned by main grooves, a plurality of sub-grooves provided in the rib-like land section at intervals in the tire circumferential direction and a groove hole provided between the sub-grooves adjacent to each other and extending in the tire circumferential direction are provided in a tread section. The sub-groove includes a lateral groove portion, in which one end opens to the main groove and the other end terminates inside the rib-like land section, and a longitudinal groove portion extending from the other end of the lateral groove portion to one side in the tire circumferential direction and terminating inside the rib-like land section. The groove hole is formed so that a groove depth at one end part close to a terminal end of the longitudinal groove portion becomes shallower than a groove depth at the other end part far from the terminal end.
1. A pneumatic tire comprising:
a main groove provided in a tread section and extending in a tire circumferential direction;
a rib-like land section partitioned by the main groove and extending in the tire circumferential direction;
a plurality of sub-grooves provided in the rib-like land section at intervals in the tire circumferential direction; and
a groove hole provided between the sub-grooves adjacent to each other in the tire circumferential direction and extending in the tire circumferential direction, wherein
each of the plurality of sub-grooves includes a lateral groove portion extending in a tire width direction, in which one end opens to the main groove and the other end terminates inside the rib-like land section, and a longitudinal groove portion extending from the other end of the lateral groove portion to one side in the tire circumferential direction and terminating inside the rib-like land section,
the groove hole is formed so that a groove depth at one end part close to a terminal end of the longitudinal groove portion becomes shallower than a groove depth at the other end part far from the terminal end,
a plurality of convex portions or concave portions are arranged side by side in the tire circumferential direction on a bottom surface of the groove hole,
the bottom surface of the groove hole is formed in an inclined surface shape so that the groove depth of the groove hole becomes gradually shallower from the other end part toward the one end part, and
the groove holes are provided such that only one groove hole is provided in each land section part sandwiched between the sub-grooves adjacent to each other in the tire circumferential direction.
2. A pneumatic tire comprising:
a main groove provided in a tread section and extending in a tire circumferential direction;
a rib-like land section partitioned by the main groove and extending in the tire circumferential direction;
a plurality of sub-grooves provided in the rib-like land section at intervals in the tire circumferential direction; and
a groove hole provided between the sub-grooves adjacent to each other in the tire circumferential direction and extending in the tire circumferential direction, wherein
each of the plurality of sub-grooves includes a lateral groove portion extending in a tire width direction, in which one end opens to the main groove and the other end terminates inside the rib-like land section, and a longitudinal groove portion extending from the other end of the lateral groove portion to one side in the tire circumferential direction and terminating inside the rib-like land section,
the groove hole is formed so that a groove depth at one end part close to a terminal end of the longitudinal groove portion becomes shallower than a groove depth at the other end part far from the terminal end,
a plurality of marks are provided side by side in the tire circumferential direction on the bottom surface of the groove hole,
the bottom surface of the groove hole is formed in an inclined surface shape so that the groove depth of the groove hole becomes gradually shallower from the other end part toward the one end part, and
the groove holes are provided such that only one groove hole is provided in each land section part sandwiched between the sub-grooves adjacent to each other in the tire circumferential direction.
