    摘要: This invention provides an envelope configuration for retreading tires using a cold-retreading process. Envelopes formed by two parts are known in the prior art. However, the known sealing means between parts are not satisfactory, either due to sealing problems or due to decreasing the envelope useful life. In order to overcome these limitations, this invention provides an envelope (20) comprised of two parts (22, 24), in which an end region (224a) of a flap (224) of the first part (22) is covered by an end region (244a) of a flap (244) of the second part (24), or vice-versa, in order to form an overlapping joint, in which a free end of the flap (224) of the first part (22) has at least one differentiated cross section (224b) whose thickness is greater than that of the flap (224) of the first part (22), and in which the overlapping joint is covered by an elastic ring (26) that is wide enough to cover said differentiated cross section (224b).

    摘要: The invention proposes a configuration applied to envelope for tire retreading in a cold retreading process. In the state of the art, envelopes consisting of two parts are known. However, the known methods of sealing among the pieces are not satisfactory either due to sealing problems, or by reducing the useful life of the envelope. In order to overcome these limitations, the invention proposes an envelope (20) comprising three parts (22, 24, 26), in which a flap (224) of the first part (22) presents a free end with a differentiated cross-section (224b), in which a flap (244) of the second part (24) has a free end with a differentiated cross-section (244b) and in which the third part (26) presents a shape of an elastic ring with enough width to cover the differentiated cross-section (224b) of the flap (224) of the first part (22) and the differentiated cross-section (244b) of the flap (244) of the second part (24).
