Abstract
The tire reinforcements are made from a single cord, a section (40) of which is advanced over a rigid core (2) until at least its central portion is opposite its final position on the support, whereupon folders (5) apply the section (40) radially against the core (2) by means of tappets (50) which act on the length (40) in the manner of a finger. The repetition of the same cycle as many times as there are lengths of cord in the reinforcement makes it possible to produce the complete reinforcement.
