    摘要: Method for determining concentric mounting of a tire on a wheel. In one embodiment, method for determining concentric mounting of a tire on a wheel comprises: providing a tire including at least one bead area, wherein at least one rim centering tolerance indicator is oriented in the at least one bead area, and wherein the at least one rim centering tolerance indicator extends circumferentially about the tire; mounting the tire on a wheel to form a tire-wheel assembly, the wheel includes a circular cross-section including a center point; rotatably mounting the tire-wheel assembly on a tire balancing machine; providing a light source adjacent to the tire-wheel assembly, the light source projects a projected reference point upon the at least one bead area; rotating the tire-wheel assembly; and observing the runout of the projected reference point relative to the at least one rim centering tolerance indicator.

    摘要: There is provided a tire-mounting/removing robot capable of automatically grasping a spent or used tire in which a tire wheel is mounted, a tire-mounting/removing system in which the tire wheel can be automatically removed from and mounted in the spent or used tire in which the tire wheel is mounted by using this tire-mounting/removing robot, and a tire-gripping head used in the tire-mounting/removing robot and the tire-mounting/removing system. Hand portions that grasp a tire or a tire wheel, and mechanisms that open and close the hand portions are provided. The hand portion includes a claw portion in an end portion of the hand portion, and this claw portion includes a first claw portion to be locked onto an edge portion of a rim of the tire wheel to grasp the tire wheel or a tire wheel-mounted tire in which this tire wheel is mounted, and a second claw portion to be locked onto a bead portion of a tire wheel-non-mounted tire to grasp the tire wheel-non-mounted tire.

    摘要: A mount and demount head configured as a housing affixed to a shaft of an OEM tire machine with a semicircular shaped shaft affixed to the housing. The shaft has a bulbous protrusion on a bottom end of the shaft with specific tapers. The shaft and the bulbous end have a flattened portion for following the contour of the rim. On the upper side of the bulbous end is the narrow semicircular shaft with a tapered top end, tapered to a widened shaft, which is affixed to the housing. A non-metallic insert is preferably inserted into a void in the flattened portion of the narrow semicircular shaft and bulbous end to protect the rim surface. Clamp adapters are used to clamp and hold small wheel assemblies whereby the clamp adapters are inserted over the OEM clamps to extend the clamp capability of the OEM tire machine.

    摘要: A winch powered tire bead breaker has a static support arm for temporarily mounting the bead breaker to a vehicle mountable winch and bracing there against. The bead breaker further has a moveable arm that is pivotally connected to the static support arm which is moveable relative to the static support arm. A working end of the winch can be releasably secured to the moveable arm and the winch actuated for moving the moveable arm from an open position to its closed position. The sidewalls of a wheel mounted tire, positioned between the moveable and static support arms, are squeezed as the moveable arm is actuated into its closed position for breaking a tire bead.
