A device for cleaning the inner walls of vulcanizing molds that are divided into upper and lower partial molds by means of a blasting device/nozzle and a manipulating device, with the blasting device and the manipulating device being accommodated and encapsulated in an isolation hood that is provided with an adapter ring, and with the isolation hood being suspended on a movable boom and connectable to the outer circumference of a partial mold by means of the adapter ring.

Device for cleaning vulcanization molds

A solid rubber tire comprised of rubber or plastic having elastomeric properties has a bottom layer and a tread portion connected to the bottom layer. A reinforcement structure for the bottom layer is provided in the form of a textile reinforcement element or a metal reinforcement element. The reinforcement structure is a wound overlay having at least one reinforcement layer which is produced by winding the reinforcement element in a plurality of windings so as to extend over at least 20% of the axial width of the bottom layer. The reinforcement element can be a cord, wire or cable. The reinforcement element may also be a cord material strip having individual reinforcement members arranged in parallel. The reinforcement members can be textile or metal reinforcement members in the form of cord, wire or cable. A method for producing the solid rubber tires is disclosed.
