These are the banded type and the stem type. Banded inflation sensors are attached to the wheel’s inner well area via both a peel-off positioning adhesive and a circumferential band clamp. Stem-type sensors mount at the valve 21st CENTURY stem location, with the valve stem an in- tegral part of the sensor. Most OE tire pressure monitoring systems are the stem type, partly to aid in system diagnosis, since the sensor is much more accessible, in terms of dis- tance, by a diagnostic or relearn tool.

  • Tips to Balance Alloy Wheel Tyres and Refurbishing
    Jul 30, 2013 17:58 IST Tips To Balance Alloy Wheel Tyres and Refurbishing The comfort and safety of the vehicle depends on the maintenance of the tyres. Tires are quite an expensive investment so it is important to maintain and keep them well balanced to ensure a longer tread life. Well balanced tires also ensure smooth and better tracking operation. Most of the heavy vehicles manufactured in the earlier days were strong enough to dampen the vibrations caused during drives. However, the modern cars are equipped with light weight chassis which makes it quite susceptible to even the smallest intolerances such as vibrations. This explains the reason why alloy wheels need to be balanced accurately so that it offers better performance and longer durability. Alloy wheels are basically light in weight due to its unique construction designs. The magnificent wheels can be balanced perfectly for a safe and smooth drive. Important Steps to Follow: First park the car on a flat ground and loosen the lug nuts of the wheel rims using a tire iron. Make use of a floor jack to raise the vehicle off the ground without taking the wheels off completely. Suspend the car fully with the use of jack stands. Then remove the lug nuts and the all the four wheels. Clean the tires using soapy water and a brush. Residues of paint, cement and tar can be removed by using lacquer thinner. Set up a bubble balance machine for the process of balancing the alloy wheels. View the bubble through the window gauge. Adjust the knobs to ensure that the bubbles are in the middle of the cross hair.

  • AUTOMATIC TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM USING WIRELESS COMMUNICATON Prof
    AUTOMATIC TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM USING WIRELESS COMMUNICATON Prof. Mr. Prashant. G. Salunkhe 1, Mr. Harshal R. Kulthe 2, Mr. Saiprasad N. Kolhe 3, Mr. Ayaan A. Khan4 1 Guide Department of Electronics and Telecommunication, 2 3 4 Research Scholar, Sandip Foundation, SITRC College, Nasik, Maharashtra (India) ABSTRACT Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an electronic system that monitors the air pressure of an automobile tyre and alerts the driver by displaying the real pressure or just a warning light. This project is focused on designing and developing a direct TPMS which the measurement of the air pressure is taken directly using pressure sensor. Suitable components are researched to design the prototype. Main components needed are pressure sensor, voltage-to-frequency converter, transmitter, receiver, and frequency-to-voltage converter. To power the prototype, energy is chosen through wheel rotation. Main components need to be calibrated to ensure the consistency and precision of the prototype in reporting the pressure. Calibration for pressure sensor is performed by simply applying a known value of pressure and the output voltage is measured. For voltage-to- frequency and frequency to-voltage converters, a known value of voltage or frequency is applied and the output is monitored using voltmeter and oscilloscope. The results show promising data by proving the relationship between the input and output for each component. As for the conclusion, although there are many problems and limitations faced, this prototype is a promising product in real world application. I. INTRODUCTION Every year, many accidents occurred and for certain cases, accidents are caused by under-inflated tyres.

NEED FOR TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING BACKGROUND • A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is a system that detects a tire that has low inflation pressure and warns the driver. • Because a run-flat tire is designed to be driven a limited distance and at limited speed after it loses air pressure, a method of alerting the driver had to be found. • There were two systems used, indirect and direct, until the 2008 model year when the use of direct- reading pressure systems was required by law.
