The invention relates to a method that can be used in the automated construction of a vehicle tyre, using butt spliced tyre components, for example consisting of material webs that are composed of textile cords or steel cords that are embedded in a rubber mixture, to produce, for example, a carcass insert of the vehicle tyre. According to said method, the end sections of the cut material web can be clamped in a splicing device comprising pairs of upper and lower splicing elements, which can be displaced in relation to one another and said sections can be butt spliced. The cut material web (5) is spread out on one plane and its end sections (5a, 5b) are seized by the splicing elements (9, 10; 11, 12) of one of the pairs of splicing elements (9, 10; 11, 12). Said splicing elements (9, 10; 11, 12) are then pivoted in opposite directions through 180° and are simultaneously guided or driven into a vertical position in relation to the second pair of splicing elements (9, 10; 11, 12), thus forming a loop in the material web. Finally, the end sections are spliced. |
