摘要:
A vehicle driving support device provided at a first vehicle and a second vehicle respectively so as to be paired in order to set off an alarm includes an image input means, a face angle detecting means, a traveling direction detecting means, a face direction detecting means, an inter vehicle communicating means a determining means and a warning means for setting off an alarm when the determining means determines that the face direction of the first driver and the face direction of the second driver are not aligned.

A tire/wheel assembly abnormality determining apparatus and a method thereof determines whether there is an abnormality in a tire/wheel assembly in a vehicle provided with the tire/wheel assembly constituted by fixing a tire, that is filled with compressed air, to a wheel. The apparatus includes a tire pressure sensor which directly detects an air pressure in the tire as a tire pressure and which outputs a tire pressure signal indicative of the detected tire pressure; and a determining device which determines whether there is a deformation state abnormality, that is an abnormality regarding a deformation state of the tire, in the tire/wheel assembly, based on frequency characteristics of the output tire pressure signal. Therefore, it is possible to accurately determine whether there is an abnormality in the tire/wheel assembly in the vehicle, regardless of fluctuation of a wheel speed.

A tire inflation pressure sensing apparatus includes a transmitter provided on a wheel of a vehicle and a receiver provided on a body of the vehicle. The transmitter includes a pressure sensor working to generate a pressure signal and a charging unit configured to be charged with electrical power via a radio wave from the receiver. The transmitter is configured to be triggered to send out the pressure signal by a change of operation of the receiver from an ON-mode, in which the receiver sends out the radio wave, to an OFF-mode in which that stops sending out the radio wave. The receiver works to change the operation thereof alternately between the ON-mode and OFF-mode in accordance with predefined processes, so that reliable transmissions of both the radio wave and the pressure signal between the transmitter and receiver are ensured without determining the relative position of the transmitter and receiver.
摘要:
A vehicle wheel arch having an electrical circuit for communicating with an electronic component installed in a tire of the vehicle. The wheel arch comprising an electrical circuit embedded within or installed on a surface of the wheel arch. The electrical circuit includes an antenna formed by a substantially flat arrangement of an electrical conductor and configured to communicate at least one of power and data to the electronic component installed in the tire.
