摘要:
A tire reinforcement structure having parallel threads is made by providing a substantially toroidal rotatable form and a reinforcement-constructing an apparatus disposed adjacent the form. At a forming section of the apparatus a group of multiple parallel threads is formed. The group of threads is fed to a joining section where the threads are embedded in an elastomeric composition to form a strip which is fed to a cutting section where the strip is successively cut into portions. The strip portions are successively fed to a depositing section which successively deposits the portions of the strip along a predetermined trajectory onto the surface of the rotating form. The strip portions are formed in situ at the form and are deposited directly onto the form from the depositing section.

A process of depositing at least one uncured colored rubber mix forming a contrasting motif on an outer surface of a tire includes preparing a blank of the uncured tire to be moulded, including all the constituents except for the colored rubber mix(es), depositing the colored rubber(s) in at least one cavity formed on a removable insert, each cavity having the general form of the motif to be moulded and having a total volume V2, the total volume of non-vulcanized colored rubber V1 placed in each cavity being less than the volume V0, mounting the insert in a suitable housing provided on the moulding surface of the mould for the tire, engaging the tire blank within the mould, and moulding and vulcanizing the tire.
