Abstract
Abstract A TIRE CURING APPARATUS OF THE POT-HEATER TYPE IS PROVIDED WITH A MOLD-PRESS CONSTRUCTION INCORPORATING A CONICALLY SHAPED SHELL FOR SUPPORT OF A FLUID-RAM ASSEMBLY WHICH RESULTS IN A SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCTION IN THE TOTAL WEIGHT OF THE APPARATUS WITHOUT CORRESONNDING DECREASE IN THE STRUCTURAL STRENGTH. THE FRUSTO-CONICALLY SHAPED SHELL AND RAM ASSEMBLY ARE COOPERATIVELY CONFIGURED TO PROVIDE A SINGLE-POINT SUSPENSION FOR THE RAM-ASSEMBLY WHICH UNIFORMLY DISTRIBUTES STRESS FORCES THROUGHOUT THE STRUCTURE AND FACILITATES PRECISE ALIGNMENT OF THE RAM ASSEMBLY WITH THE PRESS BODY.
