ABSTRACT:
A modular tire building machine servicer for use with a tire component building drum is characterized by a plurality of stackable servicer modules stacked substantially along an arcuate path struck substantially about the axis of the drum, each module being capable of supplying and dispensing tire components to a tire building drum, such providing adaptability of the servicer for different applications, as well as facilitating loading and transportation of the same from one location to another, without changing the construction of the basic servicer module. Several banks of stacked servicer modules may be mounted on a shuttle module for multistation operation. Each servicer module has provision for supporting stock and liner take-up rolls and includes fixed and hingedly mounted component dispensing trays which when the modules are arcuately stacked, are all located proximate the tire building drum for application of components thereto. Each servicer module is easy to stack and width adjustable within each station with like side plates being interconnected at the distal ends of the outer legs of the side plates by adjustable telescoping beams which additionally provide for the interconnection of adjacent stacked modules. A simplified common drive is provided for the servicer modules which may be driven by the tire building machine or independently thereof. The servicer modules may also be provided with a plurality of optional modular components for flexibility in the ultimate design of the servicer without changing the basic modular unit.
