Title:
METHOD FOR DETECTING ABNORMALITY OF HIGH-PRESSURE PROBE DEVICE AND INNER SURFACE OF TIRE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2015157632
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect abnormalities in a tire testing device and on a surface of a tire.SOLUTION: A high-pressure probe having a conductive spring electrode is arranged adjacent to a part of a surface of a tire so that the conductive spring electrode is compressed to s surface of the tire. A relative motion is given between the high-pressure probe and the surface of the tire. Discharge is generated at a place of an abnormality on the surface of the tire between the high-pressure probe and a reference electrode. A device and a method are constituted so as to determine an exact azimuth angle and an exact position in a radial direction of the discharge on the tire. The conductive spring electrode can have sufficient length for securing contact with a given point on the surface of the tire at speed on the tire surface, which increases in a charge cycle to the high-pressure probe.
