[0002] Aviation tires, commonly known as aircraft tires, are important components on aircraft with high safety and reliability requirements. The treads need to be transported during the production of aviation tires.

When the second rotating seat is lower than the third rotating seat, the indirect pressure angle of the gas and the spring on the piston is less than 90°. At this time, the rapid downward movement of the piston causes the plug to collide with the pipe mouth of the air pipe, driving the follower block to move rapidly to the lower side of the outer box. When the staff observes that the follower block moves to the bottom of the outer box, the suction cup can be lifted to transport the tread.
