Method and device for tire vulcanization
FIELD: technological processes. SUBSTANCE: according to the method, a green tire is introduced into the mould for vulcanization. The green tire is partially vulcanized so that a semi vulcanized tire is manufactured. The semi vulcanized tire is removed from the vulcanization mould. The vulcanization of the semi vulcanized tire is completed outside the vulcanization mould. The vulcanization completion process comprises a stage in which at least one portion of the semi vulcanized tire is brought to a temperature having a value between about 72% and about 120% of the temperature of at least a portion of the semi vulcanized tire in the moment of its removal from the vulcanization mould in the time period between about 2 minutes and about 7 minutes from the moment in which the semi vulcanized tire is removed from the mould. EFFECT: improved physical and mechanical properties of the resulting articles. 42 cl, 11 dwg, 1 tbl
