VERFAHREN UND VORRICHTUNG EINSETZBAR IM AUTOMATISIERT ABLAUFENDEN AUFBAU EINES FAHRZEUGLUFTREIFENS

摘要

A method that can be used in the automated construction of a vehicle tire, using butt spliced tire components consisting of material webs, for example textile cords or steel cords that are embedded in a rubber mixture, to produce a carcass insert of the vehicle tire. The end sections of the cut material web can be clamped in a splicing device with pairs of upper and lower splicing elements, which can be displaced in relation to one another and the sections can be butt spliced. One end section of the cut material web is laid and fixed on one splicing element of the pair of splicing elements and a base part that supports the pair of splicing elements is rotated through 360° , during the feeding of the material web, until the second end section of the looped material web is positioned and fixed in the vicinity of the first end section and on the same plane as the latter on the second splicing element of the pair of splicing elements and finally the sections are joined in a butt splice by the horizontal displacement of the pair of upper and lower splicing elements towards one another.
