Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention enables a built band (B) in a cylindrical shape to be easily and surely detached by peeling off the band (B) from being brought into close contact with a drum peripheral face in an expandable and contractable band building drum (D) constituted by two kinds of pluralities of segments ( 1 a ) ( 1 b ) arranged alternately in a peripheral direction, a diameter of one segment ( 1 a ) of two kinds of segments ( 1 a ) ( 1 b ) is contracted, thereafter, the segment ( 1 a ) is temporarily returned to a diameter expanding state, a diameter of other segment ( 1 b ) is contracted, thereby, the band (B) is peeled off from being brought into close contact with the drum outer peripheral face, thereafter, the band (B) is detached by bringing both of the segments ( 1 a ) ( 1 b ) into a diameter contracting state.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An expandable and contractable band building drum, comprising: a plurality of first and a plurality of second segments formed separately in a peripheral direction and positioned alternately with respect to one another in the peripheral direction, guide means for guiding the plural first and plural second respective segments into respective expanding and contracting movements in a diametrical direction and for restricting movements in an axial directi…
