ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for mounting and dismounting of tires based on the principle of a wedge-shaped tire lever forced in between the wheel rim and bead wire of the tire in order to force the bead wire inside or outside the rim by a relative movement along the edge of the rim, has a double set of tire levers (5) which by the use of associated rim gripping or damping devices (6, 7) on the ends of pivoted arms which are pivoted outwardly and inwardly by a main piston cylinder and linkage advance stepwise along the rim edge (K) by alternate activation of the rim clamps, the distance between the two tire levers being increased and reduced forcibly at the same time so that the tire levers work on the entire wheel rim circumference. The apparatus is operated by compressed air and a manually operated directional valve controls the working rate. The apparatus is mobile and can be carried and operated by a single person and requires no adjustment.
