Device and method for inspecting a tire, in particular using an interferometric measuring method

Abstract

A device for inspecting a tyre (10), in particular by means of an interferometric measuring method, is provided with a measuring head (20), which is used to scan the tyre (10) in order to produce a measured result (70, 71, 72). The device is also equipped with a location element (30), which allows the measuring head (20) to be located and aligned in a monitoring position. In addition, the device is provided with a control and display unit (40), which allows the location element to be controlled and the measured result (70, 71, 72) to be displayed. To achieve the simple control of the measuring head (20) and a reliable evaluation of the measured result (70, 71, 72), the control and display unit (40) has at least one display field (44, 45, 62) for displaying the monitoring position or the monitoring direction of the measuring head (20) in relation to the tyre (10).
