Latest Patents
One of Bator's latest inventions is the Automatic Sidewall Servicer. This innovative device is designed to supply two cut-to-length strips of sidewall simultaneously to a tire building drum without the need for handling by the tire builder. This eliminates the risk of stretching or distorting the sidewalls, which can occur during manual handling. The servicer utilizes twin cassettes that contain spools of spirally wound sidewall, separated by a rigid, U-shaped protective liner. It features an indexing table that moves the twin cassettes through various positions, including standby, let-off, take-up, and removal. A robotic grabber engages the leading edges of the liners, facilitating the threading process onto a take-up cassette. The sidewalls are then transported via overhead belt-type conveyors to a discharge tray, which is equipped with a cutting mechanism and alignment device for seamless integration onto the unvulcanized tire carcass.
