  • Patent number: 8872668
    Abstract: One illustrative embodiment includes an apparatus for detecting if a fastener moves from a first position to a different second position. The apparatus includes a first connector for connecting a first side of a contact bridge to the fastener for movement in response to movement of the fastener, and a second connector for connecting a second side of the contact bridge to an object to remain stationary relative to the object. One of the first and second sides of the contact bridge includes first and second spaced apart electrical conductors; the other side includes a third electrical conductor. The third electrical conductor is positionable to contact the first and second electrical conductors when the fastener is in the first position, and the third electrical conductor may be spaced apart from at least one of the first and second electrical conductors when the fastener is in the second position.

    Abstract: A method and system to monitor tire conditions in a vehicle when the vehicle is traveling in and out of RF coverage zones provided by one or more remote monitoring stations uses one or more sensor assemblies on the vehicle to sense conditions such as pressure or temperature. When the vehicle is not within the RF coverage zone of a remote monitoring station, sensor data generated at the sensor assemblies is stored on a communication module mounted on the vehicle. The sensed data is sent to the remote monitoring station once the vehicle enters the RF coverage zone. Regardless of whether the vehicle is in an RF coverage zone, the driver of the vehicle can still monitor tire conditions via a display in the vehicle that shows tire conditions. Two-way communication between the remote monitoring station and the sensor assemblies allows remote adjustment of operation of the sensor assemblies.

  • Publication number: 20070109112
    Abstract: A communication antenna for communications with a near field device using at least one transmitter and receiver pair, wherein the antenna includes a machine body antenna which is electrically isolated from ground and includes an electrically conductive machine frame, and which, when in electrical communication with one transmitter or receiver element of the transmitter and receiver pair, is excited so as to enable communication between the transmitter and receiver pair when the other of the transmitter or receiver elements is in electrical communication with the near field device and mounted within the near field of the machine body antenna without being in contact with the machine body antenna.
