The drum assembly with variable diameter for manufacturing tire preform, comprises a cylindrical standing base (2) equipped with a circular grooves (3) disposed axially on a zone to receive outlines with thickness. The grooves have a circumferential incompressible elastic body (4), and the drum is led to a first standing diameter. A mechanical unit spreads the elastic body of the groove base radially to align an external surface of elastic body radially with the standing base of the drum. The elastic body tightens itself against the groove base with an effect of circumferentially elastic tensions when the drum is placed on a standing diameter greater than the first standing diameter. A transverse profile of elastic body is determined when the drum is placed at a second standing diameter greater than the first standing diameter. An external radial surface of the profile forms a cylindrical surface with the standing base of the drum. The mechanical unit is formed by rods, which are laid out circumferentially in the drum and the length of the rods are adjusted when the drum is led to its first standing diameter. Two ends of the rods are fixed with a circumferential bearing (1) of constant diameter and with an internal radial surface of the elastic body. The rod heads form a circumferential area. The rods and the elements form the surface of variable diameter slide freely with respect to each other.

Abstract: Systems and methods for developing a data repository containing property listing information automatically acquired from a plurality of multiple listing services (MLSs). The property listing information from various MLSs can be mapped to a common representation and stored in the data repository. The invention utilizes and transforms information from different source MLSs which may have a particular data schema that may or may not match a predetermined common schema for the data repository. The listing information is thus consolidated from MLSs even when their schema may be different from each another or the predetermined data repository schema. The data repository schema may be selected such that each of the fields that comprise the source MLS property listing information in its native schema (and all its elements including but not limited to, agent rosters, office rosters, and tax data) can be mapped from the source schema to the data repository schema (the destination). Accordingly, the data of the source property listing from various MLSs can be preserved. Possible mappings include one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one and others. For certain applications of the invention, mappings may be direct where the listing information data from an MLS is simply copied as is, or it can undergo a data transformation process that is based on a predetermined set of listing field mapping rules.
