Wheel clamp assembly for semi-autonomous tire changer machine
A tire changer machine, and method of operation, configured with a tire-engaging wheel clamp assembly to secure a wheel assembly consisting of a wheel rim and tire mounted thereon to a drive assembly, and for demounting of the tire from the wheel rim. Upon dismounting of the tire from the wheel rim, a recessed surface and annular flange of the tire-engaging wheel clamp assembly is configured to catch and retain a rim or bead of the demounted tire, restricting movement of the tire upon dismounting from the wheel rim, until retrieved by an operator.
Tire disassembly and assembly booster arm device
The present invention discloses a tire disassembly and assembly booster arm device installed on an upright of a tire disassembly and assembly machine. The tire disassembly and assembly booster arm device includes a first tire pressing arm and a second tire pressing arm. A first polished shaft and a second polished shaft are symmetrically arranged on two sides of the upright. An air cylinder hanging frame is installed on the top surface of the upright, and an air cylinder is suspended on the air cylinder hanging frame. One end of a piston rod of the air cylinder is connected to a sliding frame connecting frame. A first sliding frame is connected to the first polished shaft in a sliding mode. The front end of the first sliding frame is hinged to the first tire pressing arm, and the rear end of the first sliding frame is connected to one side of the sliding frame connecting frame. A second sliding frame is connected to the second polished shaft in a sliding mode. The front end of the second sliding frame is hinged to the second tire pressing arm, and the rear end of the second sliding frame is hinged to the other side of the sliding frame connecting frame. The tire disassembly and assembly booster arm device may drive the first tire pressing arm and the second tire pressing arm to descend at the same time, so that a tire is pressed to be separated from a hub, which has convenient operations, realizes an assisting mode of one cylinder with two arms, and has the advantages of simple structure, easy for disassembly and assembly, improves work efficiency, and reduces manufacturing and transportation cost.

Tyre changing machine
A tyre changing machine includes a wheel support assembly for locking and setting in rotation a rim of a wheel from which to demount or on which to mount a tyre, and a bead breaking tool disposed at an end of a bead breaking arm and able to carry out the bead breaking operation. The bead breaking arm is movable between a disengaged position and a working position. A motor device has an output drive shaft for moving the bead breaking arm between the disengaged and working positions. Means for transmitting the drive from the motor device to the bead breaking arm include threaded means having an external screw-thread and hollow counter-threaded means operatively coupled with the threaded means. Connecting means operatively associate the means for transmitting the drive to the bead breaking arm.

Tyre changing machine
A machine (1) configured to remove and mount a tyre from and on a respective rim of a vehicle wheel (2), comprises: an operating arm (4) directed along a longitudinal orientation; a head (5) supported by the operating arm (4); a first tool and a second tool. The first tool is connected to the head (5) and projects in a first direction; the second tool is connected to the head (5) and, in a first operating configuration of the head (5), is disposed in a first position where it projects in a second direction, opposite to the first direction. The second tool is pivoted to the head (5) to rotate about an axis of tilt (406′) transverse to the longitudinal orientation (402) to move from the first position to a second position, corresponding to a second operating configuration of the head (5) and tilted upside down relative to the first position, to project in the first direction.
