ABSTRACT:
An automatic apparatus for removing tread from beads of various sized tires is disclosed. The automatic apparatus includes a tire centering device for vertically orienting the tire so that the radial center axis of the tire is positioned along a horizontal reference axis. The tire centering device includes a catch box having movable side walls and movable bottom plates to accomplish this centering. After the tire is centered, the tire is moved to a tire gripping device which grips the rim of the tire. Thereafter, a tire cutter device is moved in position to cut the tread from the bead of the tire as the tire is turned one revolution. Finally, a tire ejecting device is actuated to eject the remaining bead of the tire from the tire gripping device so that the cycle can be repeated.
