TIRE MOLD MOLDING ELEMENT, TIRE VULCANIZATION MOLDING MOLD, AND TIRE

摘要

Provided is a tire mold molding element that can increase the degree of freedom with which a coating layer is arranged on a ground-contact element of a tire and that can more stably arrange the coating layer in a prescribed position. Also provided are a tire vulcanization molding mold and a tire. This tire mold molding element (1), which is for vulcanization molding a tire tread (2), has: a molding surface (3) that is for molding a plurality of ground-contact elements (4) of the tread (2), which comprise a ground-contact surface (43) that will contact a road surface and a lateral-direction side surface (44) and a circumferential-direction side surface (45) that are connected to the ground-contact surface; and thin plates (5) that are provided with a main body (51) and that are provided so as to cut a coating layer (10) that is pre-arranged upon an un-vulcanized raw tire (9). At least one of the thin plates has a protruding part (6) that protrudes from the main body in the thickness direction of the thin plate so as to cover at least one part of the lateral-direction side surface of a ground-contact element and that guides the cut coating layer in the depth direction of the raw tire. At an end part that is on the opposite side from the molding surface, the thin plates have at least two cutting means (7) that are separated in the thickness direction of the thin plates.
