Abstract

The peripheral ring of a sector mold for tires is formed of an assembly of plates 1 resting against each other and stacked in such a manner as to push each other back. The ring therefore has a continuous tendency to increase in diameter. This tendency is resisted, for instance, by a conical hoop which simultaneously pushes all the plates 1 radially in the molding direction.
