Title:
【発明の名称】車両の車輪のタイヤ内の圧力低下を検出する方法と装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003506255
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method for the detection of a pressure drop in a tire of a wheel of a vehicle including the steps of determining a test variable from the wheel radii or from variables representing these wheel radii of the wheels of the vehicle, wherein the test variable is a quotient of two sums of each two wheel radii or variables representing these wheel radii of each one pair of vehicle wheels, comparing the test variable with a threshold value, and detecting a pressure drop with respect to the result of the comparison, wherein several test variables are determined with respect to several different wheel pair combinations, and pressure drop is considered to have been identified only if a defined vehicle wheel is identified by all found test variables as a wheel with a possible pressure drop.
