(Industrial Application Fields) For self-propelled wheels for agricultural, forestry, construction, and mining-related work machinery, lug types, rib lug types, and center block-side lug composite types are generally used as tread patterns. Pneumatic rubber tires that are appropriately selected according to the conditions are used; however, as an extreme example of rubber tires with a high lug type pattern for agricultural tractors, when molding and vulcanizing these types of rubber tires, there are often defects in the inner surface shape and skids. Defects such as increased costs, decreased performance, and disordered case materials due to uneven base gauges occur frequently.
The technical content described in this specification with regard to a simple and accurate solution to this problem is a development result that advantageously prevents the above defects by controlling the rubber flow during the molding process, without any troublesome procedural changes or additions to the process. It is positioned in the technical field to which pneumatic rubber tires are used for applications such as the above-mentioned working machines. (Prior art) The manufacturing process for pneumatic rubber tires, which have a tread that includes lugs that are discontinuous in the circumferential direction at least on both shoulder areas, is rather more conventional. Similar to those with a tread pattern such as a rib type used for general purpose use, a ply of rubberized parallel cord layers is first laminated onto a substantially flat former, and the ply is folded around the bead core. to form a cylindrical so-called green case,
At this time, in the case of a radial carcass structure in which the cord direction of the plies is made to extend almost within the radial plane of the tire, even if the toroidal deformation of the green case is preceded, the plurality of plies are arranged at cord angles that intersect with each other. As in the case of a laminated bias carcass structure, after adding belt reinforcement or a necessary breaker, wrapping a band-shaped rubber to form a single extruded contour that meets the required performance of the tread, or wrapping a laminate of sheet-shaped rubber,
After the tread rubber layer is bonded to a predetermined shape by winding and bundling ribbon-like rubber called orbit treading, molding and vulcanization is performed in a vulcanization pot. Here, the above ply, bead core, belt, or necessary breaker are collectively referred to as a case member, and at the above molding and vulcanization stage, the higher the molded height of the lug or the larger its cross-sectional area. The larger the size, the stronger the flow from the tread rubber layer that should fill the lug cavity of the vulcanization mold, and the flow was accompanied by irregularities in the inner shape of the tire, accompanied by cord disturbances in the case member. Here, in the case of a bias carcass structure, in JP-A-50-160902, a cord strip in a direction that intersects with the arrangement of lugs is provided on the side where the cord direction of the ply facing radially inward from the lugs is aligned with the lugs. It is disclosed that by additionally arranging , the entrainment of the case member due to rubber flow can be suppressed. The addition of such components, including the corresponding increase in lamination procedures, impacts the cost of the tire. Note that this method cannot be used for tires with a radical carcass structure. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The above-mentioned problems peculiar to the manufacture of pneumatic tires having treads including lug parts can be effectively solved without requiring the addition of the above-mentioned members. It is an object of this invention to realize a solution. (Means for Solving the Problems) The above objectives are advantageously met by a procedure consisting of the following matters. A rubber layer is pasted around the cylindrical case with the case members pasted together, which should be useful for forming a tread that has lug parts that are discontinuous in the circumferential direction at least on both shoulder parts of the tire to be made. In manufacturing a pneumatic rubber tire, a predetermined tread pattern is formed by the rubber flow of the rubber layer during molding and vulcanization of the green tire. In each area to be formed, a gouge is formed deep enough to provide the skid base gauge required for the tire after molding and vulcanization, and this gouge is inserted between adjacent lug cavities of the vulcanization mold. The above-mentioned molding and vulcanization is performed by positioning the
It is desirable that this gouge has its maximum depth in the area corresponding to the shoulder portion of the finished tire. According to this invention, when a green tire is charged into a vulcanizing pot, since it has gouges at intervals along the circumference, the influence of the rubber flow toward the lug cavities of the vulcanizing mold is affected by the gouges. Due to the arrangement, the disadvantage that the influence is caused by the cord disturbance of the case member can be solved, and at the same time, the thickness of the skid base can be made uniform, resulting in a significant cost reduction. Now, as already mentioned, the production of the pneumatic rubber tire of the present invention follows the same green tire production procedure as that of other more general pneumatic rubber tires whose uses are different from that of the pneumatic rubber tire. It is well known that there is no need to explain it further, but in the case of a radial carcass, the green case is usually deformed after toroidal deformation, and in the case of a bias carcass, the green case is deformed prior to this deformation. The tread rubber layer, which is wrapped and pasted around the case, has a composition that meets the required performance for the tread of the lug tire to be manufactured, and has a gauge width direction distribution necessary for forming the lugs, as shown in Figure 1. There is a method of wrapping extrusion-molded rubber band as a contour with a cross-sectional shape that is leveled in the longitudinal direction (extrusion method), and a method of wrapping sheet-like rubber in a laminate multiple times in the cross-sectional direction and using extrusion contours. A method of cutting and removing unnecessary parts of a sheet of rubber so that it has a similar cross-sectional shape (laminating method), and a method of rolling ribbon-like rubber side by side and stacking it so that it has a cross-sectional shape similar to that obtained by extrusion contouring (orbitretting method) law), etc. In FIG. 1, numeral 1 indicates a tread rubber layer formed by a contour in the case of an extrusion method, 2 indicates its gauge distribution in the width direction, and 3 indicates a thin wall portion serving as the outer skin of the side tread. This cage distribution 2 allows the amount of rubber required to form the lugs arranged around the entire circumference of the tire and the skid base between the lugs to be equal to 1 of the green tire.
The extrusion method, lamination method, and orbitering method are all similar in that the length is determined to be sufficient for the circumference. The state of rubber flow in the tread rubber layer 1 in the green tire vulcanization mold, on which the tread rubber layer 1 is wound and pasted after the green case undergoes toroidal deformation, is shown in the circumferential cross section near the tread end of the completed tire. 2, 4 is a case member, 5 is a lug, 6 is a skid base, 7 is a cord of the ply included in the case member 4, and 8 is a longitudinal direction shown in FIG. Under the leveled cage distribution 2, the suction action accompanying the rubber flow of the tread rubber layer 1, which is generated in a distributed manner toward each lug cavity of the vulcanization mold, occurs on the inner surface of the case member 4. It is a dent. When this dent 8 is formed, it causes the cords 7 included in the case member 4 to be disarranged and exposed locally, causing damage to the case member 4 in tubeless tires due to rubbing against the outer surface of the tube. In addition, the inner liner (air-impermeable rubber) located on the inner surface of the lug portion 5 is also attracted, reducing its effective thickness and causing a risk of air leakage. Over a wide area, the thickness t of the skid base 6 is reduced to a minimum value t' by attaching the lug 5, thus requiring an overthick contour such that the required gauge of the skid base 6 is met. This also has the disadvantage of using an extra amount of rubber to prevent the adjacent lug portions 5 from forming.
If the skid base thickness t is between the two, the quality will be excessive and the weight of the tire will increase unnecessarily, which will have an adverse effect on the tire performance, such as a decrease in the floatation of the tire, which is necessary especially for agricultural tires. Furthermore, when the carcass is arranged in a radial arrangement, the width end of the belt surrounding it will be located close to the shoulder section where the rubber flow is most intense, so this will add to the effect of the belt tension. , the uneven waves of the recesses 8 become extremely noticeable and may cause separation failure at the belt ends. Therefore, in the present invention, before or after the winding and laminating of the tread rubber layer 1, the depth is set so that the necessary skid base gauge can be secured on the case member between each area where the lugs are to be formed. FIG. 3a shows a front view of the developed part of the green tire 9, exemplifies the application of the gouge 10 thereto, and shows the region 11 where the lug portion 5 is to be formed with a phantom line, 3b shows the AA cross section in FIG. 3a, and FIG. 3c shows the BB cross section. The gouge 10 is the formation area 1 of the lug portion 5
Since the rubber flow is more intense nearer to the outer end of 1, the maximum depth d nax is set at the base of the side tread 3 shown in Fig. 1 to correspond to that area.
It is preferable that the depth gradually decreases toward the center circumferential surface of the tire. This gouge 10 may be performed by removing the rubber by scooping it out with a cutter having a U-shaped cutting edge, or by creating a rolling force using a pressing die that has a substantially similar shape, or by creating a rolling force using a method similar to gear rolling. However, in the latter two cases, it is necessary to calculate the cross-sectional area of the contour in advance because
Needless to say. A green tire having the above-mentioned gouges 10 formed therein is placed in a vulcanization pot after positioning each gouge 10 between adjacent lug cavities of a vulcanization mold, and molded and vulcanized according to a conventional method. As the well-known bladder expands during the molding stage, the cavity is filled with selective rubber flow mainly in the thick part of the treaded rubber layer 1 facing the lug cavity, and the influence of the rubber flow is reduced. Since the gouge 10 is hardly affected, as shown in FIG. 4, which is a partial cross section of the tire perpendicular to the lug portion 5, the inner surface of the case member 4 corresponding to the lug portion 5 is not affected as shown in FIG. Therefore, the gauge of the skid base 6 at the root part of the lug part 5 is reduced.
t'' remains approximately the same as the planned thickness t in the center between the lugs, and therefore, under the proper skid base gauge, there is a reduction in the amount of rubber used, including all lugs, and a consequent advantageous reduction in tire weight. (Example) When making a test tire of size AG12.4-28 4PR, the tread rubber layer 1 was made using the extruder shown in Fig. 1 to have a total width of 700 mm and a thick wall in the width direction necessary for forming the lugs. The width of the cage distribution 2 part is 290mm
cut into a length of 2400 mm corresponding to the circumference length of the green tire, wrap and paste it, and cut a U-shaped cutting edge at each of 18 equal parts on the outer circumference of the green tire according to Figure 3 a. Gouge with an electric knife 1
0 so that a skid base gauge of 5.5 mm is secured at the maximum depth position, and the amount of rubber hollowed out here is approximately 55 g per place, and the total amount is approximately 2 kg.
It was hot. The test tire obtained by this green tire is compared with a comparative tire made by a conventional method in which no gouge 10 was made as follows.

[Table] Also, the tire weight was reduced from 42Kg per comparison tire to 40Kg with this invention.
It was also advantageous in terms of flotation. (Effects of the Invention) The problem with the prior art is that during the molding and vulcanization of high-lug type pneumatic rubber tires, the rubber flow toward the deep lug cavity resulted in irregularities in the inner surface shape and other defects accompanied by chord disturbances in the case member. The invention provides an accurate solution to the problem by simply processing the surface of a green tire, without the disadvantages of using additional parts or increasing the labor for its application, and makes it possible to use rubber while optimizing the gauge of the skid base. Volume savings and tire weight reductions can be advantageously achieved.
