摘要:
For use in repairing or retreading tires, particularly large tires for earth-moving equipment and the like, the portion to be repaired or retreaded is covered and surrounded by a flexible enclosure attached to the tire in gas-sealing relationship by an adhesive. The adhesive will remain effective even at the temperatures necessary for vulcanization. The enclosure has a gas connection so that it can be evacuated or pressurized to remove air and gas occlusions. A gasket can be used in conjuction with the adhesive.

The invention relates to the retreading of rubber tires wherein a prevulcanized tread is applied to a tire carcass with an interposed vulcanizable bonding layer. The tread and at least the adjacent part of the carcass are enclosed within a close fitting flexible envelope and the resulting blank is subjected to a pressure- and heat-treatment in an autoclave to bond the tread to the carcass. The invention resides in the construction and use of an envelope which is associated with an adjacent reservoir within the autoclave, preferably between the envelope and tire, for the accumulation of possible gaseous inclusions between the inside of the envelope and the blank.
摘要:
A method for repairing or retreading a vehicle tire comprising the steps of filling a repair region with vulcanisable rubber, covering the repair region with a flexible cover attached around its edges to the tire with an adhesive, piercing the cover with a suction needle at points where air or other gases have accumulated, sealing of the openings made by the needle, and heating the repair region to vulcanize the repair rubber.

A tread strip is positioned in proximity to the outer periphery of a tire carcass. A bonding substance is provided intermediate the carcass and the strip and has adhesive characteristics sufficient to temporarily bond the strip to the carcass when the strip and carcass are pressed together. The bonding substance is also sufficiently plastic to result in intimate contact by the substance of the facing surface of the strip and the carcass when the strip and carcass are pressed together. The bonding substance, for example unvulcanized rubber, is capable of permanently bonding the strip to the carcass when the bonding substance is sufficiently heated. Initially, the strip and carcass are pressed together in such a manner as to expel gases from between the strip and carcass and in such a manner as to cause the bonding substance to temporarily bond the strip to the carcass. The bonding substance is heated to a temperature resulting in permanent bonding of the strip to the carcass, and during the heating step, escape of the bonding substance from between the strip and the carcass is prevented.
摘要:
Renewal of the running surface of a worn pneumatic or solid rubber tire, in which a layer of bonding rubber is applied to the prepared body of the tire and to the interior of a prefabricated precured rubber tread ring has gaseous inclusions between the applied layers led away and the assembly prepared in this way is heated in an autoclave for vulcanizing the layer of bonding rubber. The tread ring directly before applying it to the body is stretched very hard in a simple stretching mechanism so that when the tread ring is removed from the stretching mechanism a free stretch of about three to four percent remains temporarily. This allows the freed but stretched tread ring to be slipped over the body without further auxiliary means retaining the ring stretched and the ring to be arranged in exact correlation with the circumference of the body. The free stretch rapidly and continuously reduces to about one percent permanent stretch. In any case the duration of the temporary free stretch, which is available after the stretching process is completed and freed, is adequate for applying the tread ring to the body of a prepared tire in a simple manner.
摘要:
A tread for the recapping of tires is provided with a roughened internal surface simultaneously with the shaping of profile on its external surface in a vulcanizing form. The internal surface can be roughened by placing against the body of raw rubber in the form of a latticework, a plate with regularly or irregularly distributed projections or a composite deforming structure. The internal surface of the prefabricated tread can be sealed from the atmosphere by a foil which is applied to the internal surface directly in the form or subsequent to removal of tread from the form.
