Title:
支持リムへのタイヤの芯合わせ方法および装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4889381
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The present invention aims to coaxially aligning a tire with support rims with high accuracy by eliminating an effect of a tread outer surface. A radial inner end position of the bead portion 23 of the tire 22 is detected by a photoelectric sensor 91 at circumferentially separated four points, and a deviation between the central axis of the tire 22 and the central axis of a pair of support rims 15, 21. The bead portion 23 of the tire 22, which is an subject of the detection of the inner end position, is a portion where its dimension and shape are hardly changed even if the tire runs (i.e., is used) for a long time, so that the above-mentioned deviation can be determined at a high accuracy to, thereby, conduct a center alignment of the tire 22 with the support rims 15, 21 at a high accuracy.
