Abstract: A vacuum container for a tyre curing mold having two sidewalls and a number of lateral sectors; the container having an inclined-surface actuating device, which moves the lateral sectors radially, is activated by a press having a movable plate with a central airtight chamber, and has, for each lateral sector, a wedge integral with the lateral sector, and a conical bell fitted in sliding manner to the wedges; and the container having: an air shut-off plate integral with the movable plate of the press to transmit motion to the conical bell; an adjusting ring integral with the air shut-off plate and the conical bell; a static first annular seal interposed between the conical bell and the adjusting ring; and a static second annular seal interposed between the air shut-off plate and the movable plate of the press.
