Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing a circuit carrier for mounting components of a pressure sensing circuit, circuit carrier formed thereby, an apparatus for housing a pressure sensor circuit carrier to form a pressure sensing apparatus and a pressure sensing system using the pressure sensing apparatus and a coupler for coupling the pressure sensing apparatus to a pressurized system. A housing has provisions for aligning and urging a circuit carrier to sealingly position a pressure sensor adjacent an opening in a wall extending through of housing. The wall defines a pressure sensing chamber operable to cooperate with a pressure coupler having a profile that sealingly engages the wall.

Abstract: An apparatus for mounting a tire condition sensor capsule to a wheel rim comprises a housing having a receptacle having a shape complementary to the capsule to receive the capsule snugly therein, a lock on the housing, cooperating with a surface on the capsule to lock the housing to the capsule; and a connector for connecting the housing the wheel rim such that the capsule is between a portion of the wheel rim and the receptacle.

Abstract: A wheel component and a method for installing a measurement circuit in a wheel component are disclosed. The wheel component has a surface and a sunken cavity extending below the surface in the wheel component, for holding an insertable housing. The housing may hold an electronic circuit operable to measure a physical property and transmit a measured value to a receiver. The method for installing includes receiving a housing containing the measurement circuit into a sunken cavity in a surface of the wheel component and securing the housing in the sunken cavity.
