Patent ID: 6921446

Claim:
A system for producing a tire by individually manufacturing an inner lining element and an outer lining element and putting the outer lining element on an outer circumference of the inner lining element to form a green tire, comprising: a first apparatus group for manufacturing said inner lining element using a first ribbon of rubberized cord fabric, wherein said first apparatus group is arranged to helically wind said first ribbon around a first drum to produce a first ribbon cylinder and arranged to cut off the first ribbon cylinder in a longitudinal direction of the first drum to form a body ply material as the inner lining element, wherein the first apparatus group includes: (i) a peeling bar for peeling off the body ply material from the first drum; (ii) a first tray for receiving the body ply material below the first drum, wherein the tray is moved to a position below a body ply forming drum and then lifted to bring the body ply material into contact with the body ply forming drum, and wherein the body ply forming drum is rotated and the tray is moved forward, thus winding the body ply material around the body ply forming drum; and (iii) an end joining apparatus for joining a starting end and a terminal end of the body ply material to each other; a second apparatus group for manufacturing said outer lining element using a second ribbon of rubberized cord fabric, wherein said second apparatus group is arranged to helically wind said second ribbon around a second drum to produce a second ribbon cylinder and arranged to cut off the second ribbon cylinder in a helical direction to form a belt material, wherein the belt material is used to form the outer lining element, wherein said second apparatus group includes: a second tray for receiving the belt material below the second drum, wherein the second tray is moved to a position below an outer lining element forming drum and lifted to bring the belt material into contact with the outer lining element forming drum, and wherein the outer lining element forming drum is rotated and the second tray is moved forward to wind the belt material around the outer lining element forming drum; a third apparatus group for forming the green tire by putting said outer lining element on said inner lining element; and a fourth apparatus group including at least one vulcanizer for cross-linking the green tire into a completed tire.
