ABSTRACT:
An automated tire inspection system employs penetrative emanation such as X-radiation to inspect the integrity of portions of tires fed sequentially along a feed path through a centering station and into a shielded enclosure which where an inspection station is defined. Features of the system include: (1) the positioning of tires for inspection with their central planes in a predetermined plane and with their central axes along a predetermined line; (2) the use of sensors to monitor the positions of the several movable components of the apparatus; and, (3) the use of a centering and tire size sensing apparatus upstream from an inspection station to facilitate tire handling through prepositioning a number of apparatus components prior to the arrival of a tire in the inspection station.
