ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing a tire from an annular rim, the rim having an upstanding circumferentially extending flange and having a substantially closed web with a central aperture therein, the tool comprising a barrel having a radially extending bracket thereon. A rod having a first portion which extends through the barrel is adjustable axially of the barrel, the rod including a second portion which extends substantially perpendicular to the first portion. The second portion of the rod has a length sufficient to overlie the central aperture of the web of the rim. A shoe member is slidably disposed on the second portion of the rod and adapted to embrace the web of the rim on one side thereof with the second portion of the rod on the opposite side thereof adjacent the periphery of the aperture. Locking means are disposed for clamping the first portion of the rod in a predetermined axial position in the barrel. Means are provided on the bracket for receiving a power unit to operate in conjunction with the tool for removing a tire from the rim.
