  • Member forming a support for a device, and tire and apparatus comprising such a member
    Patent number: 8685527
    Abstract: A member a support for a device includes a mass of rubber delimited by two substantially parallel opposite surfaces forming respectively a supporting surface and a surface for connection with a tire. The mass includes an opening arranged in the connecting surface delimiting a recess arranged in the mass, and the opening does not lead to outside of the connecting surface.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and device for measuring a tire inflation pressure by means of a stress sensor
    Patent number: 8635905
    Abstract: A method for measuring inflation pressure of a vehicle tire involves measuring a compressive stress. The tire includes a rubber mass, referred to as an interior rubber, delimited by an internal surface in contact with air inside the tire and an external surface in contact with a carcass ply of the tire. The compressive stress in the interior rubber of the tire, between the internal and external surfaces of the interior rubber, is measured and the inflation pressure is deduced from this compressive stress.

  • MEMBER FORMING A SUPPORT FOR A DEVICE AND TYRE COMPRISING SUCH A MEMBER
    Publication number: 20100276563
    Abstract: A member forming a support for a device includes a connecting portion for connecting with a tyre and a supporting portion for supporting the device. The connecting portion includes a connecting surface for connecting with the tyre, an upper surface, and a peripheral edge. The peripheral edge is delimited by a joining surface between the mutually opposite upper and connecting surfaces, which converge on the joining surface at an angle (?) of between 9 and 15 degrees.
