Tire Retreadability Inspection Through Post-Voltage ID Reading
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing tire inspection methods are inefficient and inaccurate in determining whether tires with built-in transmitters are retreadable, especially when multiple transmitters are involved, and they do not address the issue of transmitter damage from high voltage inspections.
Innovation Solution
A tire inspection device and method that includes a determination unit to perform a reading inspection on tires after voltage inspection, using tire management data and transmitter ID information to determine if the tire is retreadable, with conditions such as matching ID information and registration status to ensure accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple insulation protection structures are prepared for multiple transmitters, then transmitter protection is improved, but inspection efficiency deteriorates due to positioning complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the protection function from multiple separate insulation structures and consolidates it into a single integrated insulation structure that can protect multiple transmitters simultaneously, eliminating the need for individual positioning of multiple structures
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges multiple insulation protection functions into a single insulation structure that encompasses all transmitters, combining what would have been separate protection elements into one unified solution that simplifies positioning and installation
2Productivity
If traditional inspection methods are used without reading inspection, then inspection speed is maintained, but inspection accuracy deteriorates in determining transmitter functionality
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs a reading inspection of transmitter ID information before finalizing the inspection result, ensuring that transmitter functionality is verified in advance. This preliminary action prevents misclassification of tires and ensures accurate determination of retreadability without significantly delaying the overall inspection process

AI summary
A tire inspection device (10) is a tire inspection device configured to determine whether a tire including a transmitter (31) is retreadable, comprising: an acquisition unit (131) configured to acquire tire management data including tire ID information of each registered tire; and a determination unit (132) configured to, after an inspection target tire to be inspected among the tires is determined to pass a voltage inspection, perform a reading inspection on the inspection target tire based on the tire management data and tire ID information read from a transmitter built in the inspection target tire, and, if determining that the inspection target tire passes the reading inspection, determine that the inspection target tire is retreadable.
