A green tire ( 24 ) prepared by superposing an inner liner ( 2 ) onto the inner surface of a tire body ( 1 ) is set in an upper die ( 29 ) and a lower die ( 30 ). In this condition, a pressure bag ( 31 ) placed inside the green tire ( 24 ) is expanded by air pressure to perform vulcanization and forming. At this time, a mold release sheet ( 9 ) such as a fluoro resin sheet having a mold releasing property on one surface only is interposed between a part of the inner liner ( 2 ) and the tire body ( 1 ) in such a manner that the surface having the mold releasing property is opposed to the inner liner ( 2 ). Accordingly, the inner liner ( 2 ) is prevented from being bonded by vulcanization to the tire body ( 1 ), thereby forming a sealant chamber having a proper shape for charging a sealant thereto. In case the mold release sheet ( 9 ) is formed of a material soluble in the sealant, a reduction in sealability of the sealant due to the mold release sheet ( 9 ) left in the sealant chamber can be avoided.

1. A sealant-incorporated tire manufacturing method comprising the steps of superimposing an inner liner onto an inner surface of a tire body prior to vulcanization and bonding at least a part of said inner liner to the inner surface of said tire body by vulcanization to define an annular sealant chamber by said inner liner inside a tread of said tire body, in which a mold release sheet having a mold releasing property are placed on a portion of said inner liner facing to said sealant chamber prior to vulcanization,wherein at least a part of one surface of said mold release sheet has the mold releasing property, and in the vulcanization step, a part of said mold release sheet which has no mold releasing property is bonded to a wall surface of said sealant chamber by vulcanization. 2. A sealant-incorporated tire manufacturing method comprising the steps of superimposing an inner liner onto an inner surface of a tire body prior to vulcanization and bonding at least a part of said inner liner to the inner surface of said tire body by vulcanization to define an annular sealant chamber by said inner liner inside a tread of said tire body, in which a mold release sheet having a mold releasing property are placed on a portion of said inner liner facing to said sealant chamber prior to vulcanization, wherein a plurality of mold release sheets are laminated one on another. 3. A sealant-incorporated tire manufacturing method comprising the steps of superimposing an inner liner onto an inner surface of a tire body prior to vulcanization and bonding at least a part of said inner liner to the inner surface of said tire body by vulcanization to define an annular sealant chamber by said inner liner inside a tread of said tire body, in which a mold release sheet having a mold releasing property are placed on a portion of said inner liner facing to said sealant chamber prior to vulcanization, wherein said mold release sheet is folded into a corrugated shape prior to vulcanization, and said mold release sheet is expanded in the vulcanization step.
