ABSTRACT:
A device for mounting and demounting a beaded pneumatic tire onto and off of a wheel which is particularly adapted for facilitating fitment of a well obstructor onto the well of the wheel. The device has a wheel support assembly which includes an upwardly extending spindle for supporting the wheel. The spindle has axially disposed internal female threads and has an exterior dimensioned so that the spindle can be freely inserted into the axial hole in the wheel. A removable bead pusher assembly is included which has a thrust collar, pusher arms, and a circumferential bead pusher ring connected to the ends of each of the pusher arms. A removable thrust assembly is provided which has a rotatable male threaded member which threadably mates into the female threads of the spindle and has a thrust face adapted to bear against the thrust collar. Rotation of the male threaded member causes the thrust member to bear against the thrust collar and progressively push the bead pusher assembly against the pneumatic tire to axially compress the tire and expose the wheel well to facilitate fitting of the well obstructor onto the wheel well as the male threaded member is screwed into the spindle.
