摘要:
A tire pressure sensor to be fastened to a rim of a vehicle wheel for sensing an inflation pressure of a tire mounted on the rim, the tire pressure sensor comprising a reference pressure chamber having a gas filled reference pressure volume, an electrically conductive diaphragm for sealingly separating the reference pressure chamber at a tire interior, a sensor electric circuit, a contact pin located in the reference pressure chamber and cooperating with the electrically inductive diaphragm for closing the sensor electric circuit when the tire inflation pressure is at a predetermined value, and an additional pressure chamber communicating with the reference pressure chamber and deformable to change the reference pressure volume therein to thereby establish a predetermined reference pressure in the reference pressure chamber.
摘要:
In an ignition system for an internal combustion engine, a digital system for computing the timing advance is provided. Constants approximating the curve of timing advance v. engine speed are stored in a microprocessor. The positive half waves of primary current in the magneto generate the ignition energy and also generate a reference signal for controlling the actual ignition time. The sequence of reference signals is also used to generate a digital value indicative of engine speed. The latter is used to address the read only memory in which the constants for approximating the timing advance curve are stored. After each reference signal, the value read out from the read only memory is counted down by a counter. When the counter reaches the value of zero, ignition is started.

An additional diode is provided in series with the charging diode through which the storage capacitor of a magneto ignition system is charged and the shutdown switch for the engine is connected between the common connection of the two diodes and the common connection of the magneto generator, and the capacitor diodes, because of their high back resistance, prevent any high positive or negative voltages from appearing across an open shutdown switch.
