20140196852 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF REMOVING BEADS FROM TIRES - A system and method for removing steel beads from large diameter tires by lifting a tire into a position adjacent an extraction hook and a pair of stripping dyes. The hook is positioned adjacent the tire bead and is then withdrawn through a narrow opening in the stripping dyes, which removes the bead from the tire. The machine is capable of removing both rubber-encased inner beads from the tire without repositioning the tire within the system. A plurality of lifting platforms position the tire and the stripping mechanisms with respect to one another throughout the extraction process. | 07-17-2014 |
20130205963 | System and Method of Removing Beads from Tires - A system and method for removes steel beads from large diameter tires by making a series of overlapping punched cuts in a circumferential pattern in the sidewall of the tire around the beads. The punching mechanism is hydraulically operated and remains stationary while a powered roller advances the tire after each successive punching motion until the beads have completely severed from both sidewalls of the OTR tire. The machine is capable of either simultaneously or individually removing both rubber-encased inner beads from the tire. | 08-15-2013 |
