Abstract: A tire vulcanizing mold manufacturing method for manufacturing of a mold including a vent mechanism, and a tire vulcanizing mold manufactured using such method are disclosed. Blades each with anchor portions are mounted on a plaster mold with only the anchor portions embedded in the plaster mold. A portion of each blade mounted on the plaster mold is covered with a cover layer made of a destructible fire-resistant material. Molten metal is poured over a surface of the plaster mold to cast a mold to which the shape of the surface is transferred and in which each blade is buried. The anchor portions protruding from the surface of the mold are removed, and the cover layer is removed to form a slit around the blade. A vent opening forming member is removed to form a vent opening. The slit and the vent opening communicate with each other.

Abstract: The present invention provides for an improved device for molding keyhole sipes larger in size, i.e. sipes having a wider passage, than currently being formed in treads that will avoid damaging the tread during formation and removal thereof from a mold. The device includes an elongated deformable body member having a blade extending in a direction away therefrom and substantially along the length thereof. The body member also includes a stiffening member securely fixed in position therein that extends substantially the length thereof. The stiffening member provides a desired rigidity to the deformable body member, thereby limiting flexion along its length under the stress of a rubber formulation when the mold is closed during the molding process. Also, the deformable body member provides low stress on the tread when a slit of the keyhole sipe is pulled around the body member during removal of the tread from a mold.

Each of the sipes has at least one end, in a longitudinal direction, being terminated within the corresponding land portion. Each sipe is provided with: a first offset portion protruding toward one side in a sipe thickness direction; and a second offset portion protruding toward the other side in the sipe thickness direction at a position on an inner side, in a tire radial direction, of a position at which the first offset portion protrudes. For each sipe, a sipe length (L2) in a worn state is set to be substantially the same as a sipe length (L1) in an original state, and a sipe path length (M2) in the worn state is set to be larger than a sipe path length (M1) in the original state. The method of producing a pneumatic tire of the present invention and the tire curing mold are used for producing the pneumatic tire.
