Abstract:
A vehicle tire has a plurality of first marks arranged in a circular pattern on a radially outer area of the vehicle tire. A plurality of second marks is arranged in a circular pattern on a radially inner area of the sidewall. Passing of the first and second marks is detectable by magnetic or inductive sensors. The derived signals are used to determine the longitudinal force acting on the tire or the tire spring travel or the footprint length or the load/pressure ratio during rotation of the tire.
Abstract:
A vehicle tire for a motor vehicle has a carcass, a belt, and tire tread. A device for generating data for determining tire-road adhesion or friction between the footprint of the vehicle tire and the road surface is provided. The device includes at least one magnetic sensor connected to a evaluation device. The at least one magnetic sensor has individual magnetic sensor elements forming cooperating sensor element pairs. The device also includes a magnetic field arranged in the belt and generated during tire manufacture by partial magnetization of the belt. The at least one magnetic sensor is arranged in at least one lug of the tire tread.
