METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING RUBBER PRODUCT

摘要

Provided is a method for producing rubber products, which reduces production costs while preventing wasteful generation of material, and prevents increase in the size of the equipment. The processing surface (43), which is provided with a large number of projections (47), of a processing tool (38) is brought into sliding contact with a joint surface (side end surface) of a strip-shaped member (12), and the strip-shaped member (12) is moved relative to the processing tool (38) to roughen the joint surface, and thus, even if the adhesive property of the joint surface is lowered due to long-term storage, etc., fresh unvulcanized rubber can be exposed on the joint surface by the roughening, and the joint surface can be formed into a flat shape suitable for being joined. If the joint surfaces of rubber members are joined thereafter, joint strength can be easily increased.
