smooth to disassemble tires in the process of automobile maintenance. At
present, there are many kinds of tire removal machines, including pneumatic
type and hydraulic type. The most commonly used is the pneumatic tire remover.
Classification:
Folding according
to the power type: pneumatic tire removal machine, hydraulic tire removal
machine.
Folding according
to the type of use: car special tire removal machine, truck special tire
removal machine.
Structure:
1. The main engine
workbench: the tire is mainly dismantled on this platform, mainly plays the
role of placing the tire, rotating and so on.
2. Separation arm:
On one side of the tire removal machine, it is mainly used to separate the tire
from the rim, which is used to remove the tire smoothly.
3. Charging and
discharging device: It mainly plays the role of letting off the air of the tire
to facilitate inflation or disassembly. In addition, there is a barometer for
measuring air pressure. The average tire is around 2.2 atmospheres. It is also
equal to 0.2Mpa.
4. Pedal: under
the tire removal machine there are 3 pedal switches, respectively, clockwise
counterclockwise rotation switch, separation switch, separation rim and tire
switch.
5. lubrication
fluid: conducive to tire disassembly, reduce the damage in the process of tire
removal pile, so that the tire disassembly work is better completed.
6. Compressed air interface.
A tire changer is a device used to
remove and install tires on various vehicles. It is a valuable tool in
automotive repair shops and tire service centers. A tire changer makes
the process of changing tires faster and more efficient, reducing manual effort
and potential damage to the tires or rims.
Key Features of
a Tire Changer:
1. Bead Breaking
Mechanism: A tire changer typically includes a bead breaking
mechanism to loosen the tire bead from the rim. This mechanism can be manual,
pneumatic, or hydraulic.
2. Mounting and
Demounting Arm: The tire changer has a mounting and demounting
arm that helps to remove the tire from the rim and install a new tire onto the
rim. This arm can be adjustable to accommodate different tire sizes.
3. Bead Seating
System: Some tire changers have a bead seating system that
helps to seat the tire bead onto the rim during installation. This system uses
air pressure to assist in creating an airtight seal.
4. Rim Clamping
Mechanism: The tire changer has a rim clamping mechanism to
securely hold the rim in place during the tire-changing process. This mechanism
can be adjustable to accommodate various rim sizes.
5. Control Panel:
Modern tire changers may have a control panel with various
settings and functions for operating the machine, such as adjusting the
clamping force or controlling the speed of the tire changer.
6. Assistive
Devices: Additional accessories, like tire inflators, bead sealers, and tire
balancers, can be integrated into some tire changers to
provide a comprehensive tire service solution.
Operating a Tire
Changer:
To operate a tire
changer, follow these general steps:
Secure the tire
changer on a stable surface.
Position the wheel
to be serviced and ensure it is properly aligned with the tire changer.
Engage the rim
clamping mechanism to securely hold the wheel in place.
Use the bead
breaking mechanism to loosen the tire bead from the rim.
With the mounting
and demounting arm, carefully remove the tire from the rim.
Place a new tire
onto the rim and use the mounting and demounting arm to install it by pushing
the tire bead onto the rim.
Use the bead
seating system, if available, to ensure a proper seal between the tire and rim.
Release the rim
clamping mechanism and check that the tire is correctly mounted and balanced.
Repeat the process
for each tire that needs to be changed.
