Abstract: In the method for producing a green tire blank, at least one stitching roller is applied to the blank with the use of a resilient roller support, and during each rotation of the blank, a set value of a level of pressure of application of the roller against the blank is made to vary between at least two non-zero values.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing a tire (1) by winding contiguous strips onto a rotary form at a pitch and in a number of turns that is suited to the desired profile. The method comprises steps that include laying a strip to form the sublayer (13) onto the plies (15) that form the crown reinforcement belt, the strip being made of a rubbery material that is a poor conductor of electricity, laying one or more strips to form the first part of the tread (11A), these being positioned axially on one side of the tire, the strip or strips being made of rubbery materials that are poor conductors of electricity, and laying a strip to form the insert (10) and that is laid in such a way that at least one radially interior turn (100) is in contact with the sublayer (10), the strip being made of a rubbery material that is a conductor of electricity.

Abstract: A mechanism for laying a strip on a receiving surface rotating about a first axis. The mechanism includes a laying head moving along a second axis oriented parallel to the axis of rotation of the surface and along a third axis oriented parallel to a radial direction passing through the point of contact between the receiving surface and a strip applicator of the laying head. The laying head is rotatable about a front axis oriented substantially perpendicular to the second and third axes and passing through the contact point. the laying includes a device for estimating the value of the of the angle ? formed by a tangent to the transverse profile of the surface and the second axis. The movements of the laying head are determined by the value of the angle ? in such a way as to displace the laying head in a direction parallel to the tangent following the transverse profile of the receiving surface.

Abstract: Apparatus designed for laying a strip on a rotating receiving surface S, comprising a laying head (100) moving along axes XX? parallel to the axis of rotation of the surface (S) and YY? parallel to a radial direction passing through the point of contact Q between the strip application means (112) and the receiving surface (S), and capable of moving in rotation about an axis AA? substantially perpendicular to the above axes and passing through the point Q. The laying head comprises a device allowing estimation of the value of the angle ? formed by the tangent TT? to the transverse profile of the surface S and the axis XX?. The movements of the laying head are determined by the value of the angle ? in such a way as to displace the latter in a direction parallel to TT? following the transverse profile of the receiving surface.
