The laser displacement sensor 106 covers the entire top of the base 101, facilitating the detection of the tire forming drum located on the top of the base 101 through the laser displacement sensor 106, and playing a major supporting role.

[0025] The support unit consists of a turntable 201, an output shaft 202, a motor 203, a bracket 204, a tray 205, and a through hole 206. The turntable 201 is rotatably connected to the top of the base 101. The output shaft 202 is fixedly connected between the turntable 201 and the motor 203. The motor 203 is fixedly connected to the inner top of the base 101. The bracket 204 is fixedly connected to the top of the turntable 201. The tray 205 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 204. The through hole 206 is formed on the surface of the tray 205, mainly serving to support the tire forming drum and drive its rotation. The limiting unit consists of a lifting seat 211, a lifting rod 212, an ultrasonic sensor 213, a telescopic frame 214, a clamping plate 215, and a polarizing lamp 216.
