ABSTRACT:
A tire curing press (20) according to the concepts of the present invention includes a fixed base (12), a base beam (20) mounted on the fixed base, a lower mold section (L) for a tire supported by the base beam, a cross beam (25) supportingly mounting an upper mold (U), a beam lifting device (40) for effecting relative movement between the base beam and the cross beam, a connecting rod assembly (30) for aligning the upper mold section and the lower mold section, bolster assemblies (68, 80) positioned between the beams and the mold sections, and loading elements (75, 85) interposed between the beams and the bolsters for applying mold section squeeze forces at selected locations on the bolsters producing substantially uniform loading on the mold sections. The tire curing press may have in lieu of or in addition to the loading elements strain rod locking assemblies (100) selectively locking the strain rod (31) of each connecting rod assembly during the application of squeeze forces to the mold sections.
