Tire testing machine

摘要

A tire testing machine of the present invention includes a bottom chuck that is mounted to a bottom frame, a top chuck that is mounted to a movable beam, a ball screw that causes the movable beam to ascend or descend, and a beam fixing member that fixes the movable beam so as not to ascend. The beam fixing member includes a disk that is fixed to the ball screw and is provided with a plurality of elongated holes and air cylinders that are fixed to the vertical frame and are inserted into the elongated holes. When the pins are inserted into the elongated holes formed in the disk, the top chuck is fixed to the bottom chuck through the movable beam so as not to ascend.

主权项

1. A tire testing machine comprising:
a bottom frame; a pair of vertical frames that is supported by the bottom frame and extends upward in the vertical direction from the bottom frame; a movable beam that is laid across the pair of vertical frames; a first chuck that includes a first spindle rotatable about an axis following the vertical direction; a second chuck that is mounted to the movable beam, is engageable with the first chuck, and includes a second spindle rotatable about an axis following the vertical direction along with the first spindle; a screw shaft that is mounted to the vertical frame and is rotated by a driving unit so as to cause the movable beam to ascend or descend; and a beam fixing member that fixes the movable beam when a gas is supplied to an inner space of a tire clamped between the first chuck and the second chuck, wherein the beam fixing member includes a disk that is fixed to the screw shaft and is provided with a plurality of elongated holes elongated in the circumferential direction of the disk and a disk fixing member that is fixed to a stationary object and includes pins to be inserted into the holes, wherein the pins have a length in the circumferential direction of the disk which is less than a length of the elongated holes in the circumferential direction of the disk, and wherein when the pins are inserted into the holes formed in the disk, the second chuck is fixed to the first chuck through the movable beam.
