METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR NON-DESTRUCTIVE INSPECTION OF TIRES ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A pulsed through-transmission ultrasonic non-destructive inspection of the internal struc- ture in a tire wall is effected. The ultrasonic in- spection is preferably carried out through the walls of a rotating inflated tire with the ultrasonic trans- ducers being automatically moved toward the inner and outer tire wall surfaces to optimum relative distances of separation during an inspection cycle. The trans- ducers disposed inside the inflated tire are preferably mounted for automatic retraction into a protected space during tire mounting and demounting operations. Such ultrasonic inspection techniques may be combined with conventional tire buffing methods and apparatus as practiced in tire retreading operations.
