Abstract: A method of anchoring a first object in a second object. The second object defines an opening. The first object has an insert portion that defines an insertion axis and has an outer shape that may form an undercut with respect to axial directions. The method includes inserting the insert portion in the opening, with a hardenable composition (prepolymer; mortar) between a wall of the opening and the insert portion, and causing mechanical vibration energy to impinge to cause the hardenable composition to undergo a chemical hardening process to yield a hardened composition, so that a first connection between the first object and the hardened composition and a second connection between the hardened composition and the second object results, whereby the first object is anchored in the second object. The first connection and/or the second connection may include an adhesive connection and/or a positive-fit connection.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transponder that is mounted on a tire. The transponder includes at least one transponder chip and a transponder antenna and is embedded in a substrate which is connected to an inner side of the tire with the aid of an element. The aim of the invention is to provide a transponder with the highest possible durability. To achieve this, the connecting element is a material strip which is only fixed to the inner side of the tire in one sub-section.

Abstract: The procedure and the facility are used for wireless transmission between a wheel module (9) arranged in a tire (2) and an external control device (3). A first transmission signal is transmitted from an antenna (6) of the control device (3) to an antenna (11) of the wheel module (9). Data is transmitted via a second transmission signal from the wheel module (9) to the control device (3), whereby the first transmission signal has a different frequency from the second transmission signal. The first transmission signal is received by the antenna (11) of the wheel module (9) during a coupling period, within which while the tires (2) are rotating, an area of influence (15) of the antenna (11) of the wheel module (9) which also rotates, and a stationary area of influence (14) of the antenna (6) of the control device (3) overlap. After the beginning of the coupling period is recognised, the data transmission is started from the wheel module (9) to the control device (3).
