DISPOSITIVO DE ALIMENTACAO DE COMPONENTES PARA PNEU SOB A FORMA DE TIRAS

摘要

The invention relates to a feeding device for strip-shaped tire components. The inventive device is situated in a conveying device for a tire construction drum. The feeding device comprises one or several storage means, feeding and cutting devices pertaining thereto as well as transport devices by means of which the cut tire components are transported to the tire construction drum. The transport devices which withdraw the tire component from the storage means and position said tire component under the cutting device and the transport devices which transport the cut tire component to the tire construction drum are configured as an interconnected one-piece transport system in a transport line. The transport system can be displaced between a rear cutting and feeding position and a support position that is moved to the front. The conveying devices are arranged in such a way that the one-piece transport system engages with the cutting devices in the rear position thereof. The conveying devices and the one-piece transport system are provided with holding and fixing devices for the tire component. The holding and fixing devices can be carried to the tire component and fix the tire component during displacement of the one-piece transport system, whereby said component has been withdrawn from the storage means and, after cutting, remains adjacent to the storage means in relation to the cutting line. Said holding and fixing devices also fix the tire component that is already fed to the one-piece transport system.
