WHEEL-STATE OBTAINING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240133760 titled 'WHEEL-STATE OBTAINING SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for obtaining the state of wheels, including air pressure sensors and temperature sensors for each wheel, along with a controller to analyze the data and determine abnormal states based on temperature and air pressure readings.
- Air pressure sensors for each wheel to detect tire pressure
- Temperature sensors for each wheel to detect internal tire temperature
- Controller to calculate temperature conversion air pressure for each tire
- Abnormal state detection based on comparison of temperature conversion air pressure reductions
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in the automotive industry for tire pressure monitoring systems in vehicles to ensure optimal tire performance and safety.
Problems Solved
This system helps in detecting abnormal tire conditions early, preventing potential accidents due to underinflated or overheated tires.
Benefits
- Improved safety on the road - Enhanced tire performance and longevity - Real-time monitoring of tire conditions
Potential Commercial Applications
"Smart Tire Monitoring System for Enhanced Vehicle Safety"
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include existing tire pressure monitoring systems in vehicles that rely solely on air pressure readings without considering temperature variations.
Unanswered Questions
How does the system communicate abnormal tire states to the driver or vehicle system?
The abstract does not specify the method of alerting the driver or vehicle system about abnormal tire states.
Are there any specific temperature or pressure thresholds used to determine abnormal states?
The abstract does not mention the specific thresholds or criteria used to identify abnormal tire conditions based on temperature and pressure readings.
Original Abstract Submitted
a wheel-state obtaining system includes: air pressure sensors each provided for a corresponding one of a plurality of wheels to detect an air pressure of a tire of the wheel; and temperature sensors each provided for a corresponding one of the wheels to detect a temperature of an inside of a tire of the wheel; and a controller. the controller obtains a temperature conversion air pressure, which is the air pressure of each tire when the temperature is a set temperature, based on a detected air pressure and a detected temperature. when a reduction amount of the temperature conversion air pressure of one of the wheels is greater than a reduction amount of the temperature conversion air pressure of each of other wheels except the one of the wheels, the controller determines that the air pressure of the tire of the one of the wheels is in an abnormal state.
