According to news reporting originating from Alexandria, Virginia, by NewsRx journalists, a patent by the inventors Baranowski, Robert (San Francisco, CA, US), Bauer, Mark (San Francisco, CA, US), Darolfi, Victor (San Francisco, CA, US), Downey, Jonathan (Canton, MI, US), Michini, Bernard J. (San Francisco, CA, US), filed on February 10, 2023, was published online on January 16, 2024. The assignee for this patent, patent number 11872841, is RoboTire Inc. (Canton, Michigan, United States). Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Removal of wheels from vehicle wheel hubs and placing old tires with new tires onto the removed wheels is a manual and time-intensive process. Often a vehicle is jacked up or lifted by a manually operated hydraulic lift or vehicle jack. Lug nuts are then manually removed via a torque wrench or tire iron. Once the lug nuts are removed, the wheel and tire are then physically handled and removed from a wheel-hub. Such manual operations may lead to inefficient operations, and potential physical hazards to a person removing the wheel and tire from the vehicle.”
