Tire building drum and tire building method, capable of assembling tire component members with high accuracy. A tire building drum is used, which includes at least one core body, which is disposed at an axial inside of a pair of bead lock means, and which comprises a plurality of sheets of rigid support members disposed in a toroidal shape and adapted to be displaced and thereby expanded or contracted. Bead cores are locked by the bead lock means, respectively, and a center portion of a carcass band is bulged while displacing the bead lock means close to each other. Back side portions of the carcass band are folded to radial outsides around the bead cores, respectively. The core body is then radially expanded to the maximum diameter while locking the bead cores, and tire component members are assembled onto the radially expanded core body.

The chuck system comprises a plurality of chucks wherein each chuck includes a circumferential or substantially circumferential external surface and a plurality of friction reducing members positioned on the external surface. The friction reducing members are positioned to engage the internal circumference of the toroidal structure such as a tire. The method of processing a tire carcass includes positioning the tire carcass on fixed diameter chucks having friction reducing members on the external surface.

The present invention provides a tire building, and a building system, process setup method and manufacturing method for a tire built by this tire building drum, which can suppress investment cost of the drum core of the tire building drum used in a tire building system for building tires in different sizes, and to shrink an inventory of reserve drum cores. Plural distance pieces having the same thickness and end pieces forming the both end portions in the width direction are aligned in the width direction of the drum core to configure plural rigid segment which constitute the tire building drum. The distance pieces which are detachably configured are so arranged that their thickness direction face in the width direction of the drum core.

A tire building drum and a method of building a tire carcass is disclosed. The tire building drum has a center section comprised of a plurality of segments that are radially and axially movable. The building drum further comprises shoulder sections that are axially movable. The shoulder sections include radially expandable bead locks. The method employs the steps of applying one or more carcass layers, locking the bead locks and moving the center section radially outwardly while moving the bead locks axially inwardly.

A tire-assembling apparatus includes an assembling drum, radial-movement devices, and at least one axial-movement actuator. The assembling drum includes first and second halves axially opposed along a geometric axis of the drum. Each of the halves includes a plurality of circumferentially-distributed radial sectors. The radial-movement devices associated with each of the halves selectively translate corresponding radial sectors between a contracted condition and an expanded condition. The at least one axial-movement actuator translates the halves relative to each other between an approaching condition and a spaced-apart condition. Each of the radial sectors includes a holding member and a supporting member. The holding member defines an engagement seat of an annular anchoring structure to a bead-part of a carcass sleeve fitted on the drum. The supporting member is linked, relative to the holding member, in a position axially-internal to the holding member and movable between first and second operating conditions.

A method of manufacturing a tyre for a vehicle wheel includes making a carcass structure on a drum, applying a belt structure and tread band, and shaping the tyre. Making the carcass structure includes feeding at least one semi-finished product onto the drum, disposing at least one separating element radially external to the at least one semi-finished product, feeding at least one carcass ply onto the drum, disposing annular elements radially external to the at least one carcass ply, turning up the at least one carcass ply around at least one of the annular elements, removing the at least one separating element, and applying bead cores. The drum includes a central portion, two side portions, at least one transport device for bead cores, at least one pressure device, at least one turning-up device for the at least one carcass ply, and a device adapted to radially modify the drum surface.

A tyre building drum with a turn-up device for production of unvulcanized tyres, consisting of a horizontally disposed central bearing hollow shaft (1) with a driving spindle extending through the centre of the bearing hollow shaft, around which there are arranged two sets of lever arms (26) with rollers (27), between which a mechanism for supporting bead wires from both sides is located at both sides of a vertical symmetry plane, the mechanism consisting of: an axially movably arranged first guiding disc (21) with radially movably arranged clamping bead segments (33), adapted to cooperate with a mechanism for controlling radial lift of clamping bead segments (33), and an axially movably arranged second guiding disc (34) with radially movably arranged supporting bead segments (32), adapted to cooperate with a mechanism for controlling radial lift of the supporting bead segments (32), wherein the clamping bead segment (33) is provided with a space (3) for receiving supporting arms (9, 9a) with a bridge (11) of the supporting bead segment (32) and a bearing surface (7) for simultaneous radial lift of the supporting bead segment (32) with the radial lift of the clamping bead segment (33) by the mechanism for controlling radial lift of the clamping bead segments (33). The invention provides also a method of production of green tyres using this tyre building drum.
摘要:
A tire building drum includes a hollow main shaft, a pair of bead lock sections arranged concentric with the main shaft and respectively holding a bead core of a tire, and a radially expansible/contractible carcass-supporting body defining an inner shape of a carcass member extending between the bead cores. The carcass-supporting body is composed of a pair of core bodies which are concentric with the main shaft and have a plurality of expansible/contractible rigid segments circumferentially abutting on and engaging with each other. The tire building drum is provided with a pair of sliders on which the core body and the bead lock section are mounted on a single side in the axial direction, slider-moving means for moving these sliders to any required radial position and segment-expanding/contracting means for expanding/contacting the segments of each core body to any required radial position.
摘要:
Tyre building drum with turn-up apparatus for building an unvulcanized tyre with tyre components (1, 2) and two bead cores (3, 4) with high bead filling strips (4null). Said drum has two ring segments (6, 7) spaced from each other in order to support a bead core, drum segments (8, 9, 10, 11, 12) placed on the outside of each ring segment in order to support the tyre components. Said drum further has means to radially expand that part of the tyre components which is situated between the ring segments. Said tyre building drum has on both sides outside the ring segments a first and second set of axially extending, hingeable arms (11, 12, 17, 19) each having an end directed to the ring segment, said end having a roller (13, 14, 16, 18) and means to axially and radially move each set of arms from a first position in which the rollers of a set of arms form a virtually closed ring to a second position in order to press the expanded part of the tyre components which is situated between the ring segments to the part of the tyre components which is situated outside the ring segments. Each roller (16, 18) of an arm (17, 19) of the second set is situated between two adjacent arms (13, 14) of said first set and situated on the side of the rollers of the arms of said first set which side is turned away from the ring segments.
