A tire vulcanizer according to this invention comprises a swing loader for turning and carrying a vulcanized tire or cooled tire between a tire vulcanizing press and a post-cure inflator. The discharge position of the cooled vulcanized tire to a discharge conveyor is arranged within the rotating track of the swing loader between the tire vulcanizing press and the post-cure inflator, so that the discharge conveyor receives the cooled tire carried from the swing loader and discharges it to a carrying-out conveyor juxtaposed in the rear of the post-cure inflator. The swing loader comprises an expansible and contractible tire chuck capable of supporting the bead part of an unvulcanized or vulcanize tire, a rotatable rotating arm having the tire chuck on the top end, whose base end is supported by the tire vulcanizing press, and a drive part consisting of a first hydraulic cylinder whose rod end is pivotally fixed to the tire vulcanizing press side, a second hydraulic cylinder whose rod end is pivotally fixed to the rotating arm side, and a frame body for supporting the cylinder parts of the first and second hydraulic cylinders one above the other in such a way as to set the expanding direction of each rod in the cylinders to be in the reverse direction each other.
