Abstract

An improved for loading green tires in a laterally aligned two chamber type tire curing press, in which green tire loading devices for the respective chambers are provided in a movable manner at a center portion of the tire curing press. A green tire placing table is provided in a movable manner at a position in front of the center portion of the tire curing press. Positions in front of the respective chambers of the tire curing press are used as standby positions of the green tire loading devices. A position in front of the center position of the tire curing press is used as a green tire supply position onto the green tire placing table. Delivery of a green tire is effected either by moving the green tire loading device to the green tire supply position or by moving the green tire placing table to the standby position and then inverting the green tire onto gripping claws of the loading device. Green tires can be thereby successively loaded into the respective chambers of the tire curing press.
