ABSTRACT:
A tire building apparatus comprises in combination: a tire building drum including a cylindrical tire building drum body formed radially contactable and rotatable around a rotary axis thereof, and a pair of bead applying mechanism disposed in close proximity of both axial ends of the tire building drum body to be rotatable together with the tire building drum body and formed radially contactable; and a transfer ring including an annular frame movable toward and away from a position where the annular frame surrounds the tire building drum, a tire component carrying mechanism having a plurality of tire component carrying members radially movably mounted on the annular frame and capable of carrying a tire component in concentrical relation with the rotary axis of the tire building drum body to mount the tire component on and around the tire building drum, and a pair of bead carrying mechanisms mounted on the annular frame to be disposed at both axial ends of the tire component carrying mechanism in spaced relation with each other, each of the bead carrying mechanisms having a plurality of bead carrying members radially movable to carry beads in concentrical relation with the tire building drum body and movable toward and away from a position where the carrying mechanisms respectively surround the bead applying mechanisms and capable of setting beads on the tire component in cooperation with the bead applying mechanism while the annular frame surrounds the tire building drum.
