Abstract
A single sheet-like belt 8b, from which a single tire component can be formed, is held on an outer circumferential surface of a winding cylinder 12. The sheet-like rubber member 8b, which is held by the winding cylinder 12, is removed from the winding cylinder 12 by rotation of a drum 22 and adhered to an outer circumferential surface of the drum 22, so as to manufacture a tire component 8c. At the time, the sheet-like belt 8b is moved from the winding cylinder 12 to the drum 22 via a removing roller 14 that is arranged above a common tangent Q between the drum 22 and the winding cylinder 12.
Claims3
A manufacturing method of a tire component that includes adhering a sheet-like rubber member to an outer circumferential surface of a drum, the manufacturing method of the tire component comprising:
- holding the single sheet-like rubber member, from which the single tire component can be formed, on an outer circumferential surface of a winding cylinder, removing the sheet-like rubber member, which is held by the winding cylinder, from the winding cylinder by rotation of the drum, and adhering the sheet-like rubber member to the outer circumferential surface of the drum,
- moving the sheet-like rubber member from the winding cylinder to the drum via a removing roller that is arranged above a common tangent between the drum and the winding cylinder,
- wherein the sheet-like rubber member has a parallelogram shape that includes paired lateral sides and paired inclined sides, the paired lateral sides being arranged in parallel with a moving direction of the sheet-like rubber member that is moved from the winding cylinder to the drum, and the paired inclined sides being inclined with respect to the moving direction of the sheet-like rubber member at ends in the moving direction, and
- only the sheet-like rubber member of a size that makes it possible to manufacture the single tire component is held around the winding cylinder.
