A METHOD OF DETECTING A DEFLATED TYRE ON A VEHICLE

This comprises sensing the angular velocity of each wheel and producing a signal proportional thereto, processing the four signals in a processor unit which subtracts the sum of the signals from one pair of diagonally opposite wheels from the sum of the signals from the other pair of diagonally oppo...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This comprises sensing the angular velocity of each wheel and producing a signal proportional thereto, processing the four signals in a processor unit which subtracts the sum of the signals from one pair of diagonally opposite wheels from the sum of the signals from the other pair of diagonally opposite wheels, senses when the magnitude of the result is between 0.05% and 0.60% of the mean of the two sums compares the signals for each of the four wheels in turn with the signals for each of the other wheels, senses when one of said signals is different to the average of all four signals by more than 0.1% and in the event of both sensed signal factor being present, operates a warning device to indicate a tyre is partially or completely deflated.
