Method and cord organizer for organizing cords between a tire building creel and an extruder

Disclosed are a method and a cord organizer for organizing cords between a tire building creel and an extruder, wherein the method includes the steps of: providing a cord inlay station between the tire building creel and the extruder for preparing the cords for insertion into the extruder; collecting groups of the cords in a plurality of cord collectors at the tire building creel; and transferring said plurality of cords collectors with the groups of cords collected therein from the tire building creel towards the cord inlay station.

Cable guiding assembly

A cable guiding assembly is mounted to a cable guide seat and for extension of a cable therethrough, and includes first and second housings, a pivot connecting unit and a locking mechanism. The pivot connecting unit includes first and second pivot connecting portions disposed on and pivotably connected to the first and second housings, respectively, such that the first housing is pivotable relative to the second housing between a close position, where the first and second housings cooperatively define an accommodating space and permit the cable to extend therethrough, and an open position that permits the cable to be installed to and removed from the cable guiding assembly. The locking mechanism includes first and second locking units disposed respectively on first and second housings, respectively opposite to the first and second pivot connecting portions and detachably engaging each other to secure the first housing at the close position.
