Abstract
A tire testing machine includes a spindle adapted to rotatably support a tire. The machine has a frame defining an opening that allows the tire to be loaded onto the spindle and unloaded from the spindle with the frame having an upper frame member that spans at least a portion of the opening. A hoist hanger is removably connected to the upper frame member. The hoist hanger is adapted to removably support a tire hoist that allows the tire to be supported while it is unloaded from the spindle and the machine. The hoist hanger includes a support bracket slidably disposed over the upper frame member and a support arm that extends inwardly toward the spindle of the machine. The hanger configuration provides a compact design that allows tires to be securely and safely moved with a hoist.
