Abstract
An apparatus for testing tires comprises a probe having a structure which adjusts to a superficial profile of the tire cavity and comprises an electrically insulating material. A chain mail portion connected to the structure comprises an electrically conductive material, and has a width to engage the surface of the cavity in the area of the crown and, at least partially, in the area of the sidewalls. A roller supports the tire and rotates it around a first central axis, and comprises a central core made of an electrically conductor material, and at least a coating layer, which is applied on the outside of the central core, and has an even thickness. The roller comprises an outer surface having a concave profile facing the tire. A high-voltage test system tests for defects in the carcass and comprises two electrodes defined by the central core and the chain mail portion.
