Claim:
A tyre mounting/dismounting machine ( 1 ), comprising: a base ( 2 ); rotating means ( 3 ) for supporting and blocking a wheel ( 100 ); a column ( 4 ) associated to the base ( 2 ); a first arm ( 7 ) and a second arm ( 8 ) slidably mounted on the column ( 4 ); an upper first debeader tool ( 13 ) and a lower second debeader tool ( 9 ) being mounted respectively at free ends of each arm ( 7 , 8 ), wherein a head ( 10 ) is mounted at the free end of the first arm ( 7 ), and is rotatable with respect to an axis (Y), wherein a mounting tool ( 11 ), a dismounting tool ( 12 ) and the first debeader tool ( 13 ) project from the head ( 10 ) and are mounted in reciprocal positions such that they ( 11 , 12 , 13 ) do not interfere with one another and such that by rotating the head ( 10 ) with respect to the first arm ( 7 ) a same work position can be reached for each of the tools ( 11 , 12 , 13 ) projected from the head ( 10 ); means for blocking ( 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ) being associated to the head ( 10 ) in three different positions, wherein each of the three different positions are corresponding to a work position for each of the tools ( 11 , 12 , 13 ) projected from the head ( 10 ).
