A tire mounting apparatus includes a rim positioning mechanism, a wheel support mechanism and a mounting frame that are disposed on a base in sequence, and a tire pressing mechanism disposed on the mounting frame. The rim positioning mechanism is configured to position a hub of a rim. The wheel support mechanism is configured to support a side peripheral edge of a wheel. The tire pressing mechanism is configured to press a side peripheral edge of a tire for pressing a bead of the tire into the rim. The operation is simple and labor-saving. The tire mounting efficiency can be improved and the labor intensity can be reduced.

The tire-changing machine (1) for trucks comprises a bearing frame (2), at least a work unit (3) associated with the frame (2), having at least a supporting element (4) for supporting a wheel which can be operated in rotation around a substantially horizontal first axis (5) and also having a balancing device (10) of the wheel, at least a tool (8) associated with the frame (2) for the removal of the wheel tire, at least one of the supporting element (4) and the tool (8) being mobile with respect to the other in the direction of reciprocal close/away movement and wherein the work unit (3) is connected mobile in rotation to the frame (2) around a second axis (12) of rotation, the supporting element (4) and the balancing device (10) rotating integrally to one another around the second axis (12).
