A method for detecting abnormalities of a tire which detects abnormalities of a tire on the basis of rotational information obtained from tires attached to wheels of a vehicle. The method includes the steps of: detecting rotational pulses of wheels of the tires, calculating and storing rotational information of the tires on the basis of the rotational pulses, calculating and processing fluctuations in rotational pulse intervals in a single rotation of the tires on the basis of the rotational information, and storing data during driving which have been processed for each single rotation and performing prediction of abnormalities of a tire on the basis of changes in the data. Irregularities in rotational information of rotational pulses in a single rotation of the tires are detected for predicting a danger of abnormalities occurring to the tires to thus enable safe driving.

A puncture repair kit that reduces the difference between a pressure displayed on a manometer of a compressor device and an actual tire internal pressure. The compressor device (2) is connected with a bottle unit (3) directly. A cap 6 comprises a one-way valve (14) to prevent puncture-sealing agent from flowing back toward the compressor device. A cylinder (12) of the compressor device (2) comprises a branch chamber (21) receiving compressed air from a pump chamber (11). The branch chamber (21) is connected with an air feeding passage (39) extending toward a bottle unit (3), a manometer (22), a relief valve (23), and a surge chamber (70) to store the compressed air from the pump chamber (11) and to reduce the pressure fluctuation of the compressed air.

摘要:
A vehicle wheel speed is calculated based on a vehicle wheel speed signal outputted from a vehicle wheel speed sensor and a change width w which is an amplitude of a time change component of the calculated vehicle wheel speed. When the calculated change width w is equal to or more than a reference value w0 it is judged that a quick tire deformation is currently generated and a driver of the vehicle is informed of the quick deformation by actuating a warning device.
