The sealing of a tire / rim assembly is easily recovered without contaminating the surroundings. A plastic bag 30 is arranged so as to cover an upper portion of a table 28A of a tire changer 28, and a rim 18 of a tire / rim assembly 10 in which a bead portion 14 is dropped into a well portion 18B of a rim 18 in advance is turned sideways. It fixes with the chuck | zipper 28B through the plastic bag 30. FIG. Using the tire lever 32 or the like, the upper bead portion 14 is removed above the rim 18 so that the pneumatic tire 12 and the rim 18 are in a free state, and the lower bead portion 14 is made to correspond to the drop 18A and the rim 18 and bead. A gap 34 is formed with the portion 14, and the sealing agent 26 inside flows out into the lower plastic bag 30 through the gap 34. A sealing agent absorbing member 36 such as a waste cloth, a water absorbing agent, and a wood chip is disposed on the plastic bag 30 in advance to absorb the sealing agent 26. [Selection] Figure 5 |
