  • Publication number: 20210276376
    Abstract: A TPMS transmitter (100) fixing structure, comprising a valve stem and a core rod (200) in the middle of the valve stem, the core rod (200) having a connector suitable for connecting to the TPMS transmitter (100), and also comprising a protruding part protruding outward along the radial direction of the valve stem, such that, when the valve stem is mounted on a wheel rim (300) of an automobile, the protruding part is in contact with the wheel rim (300); adding a protruding part to the valve stem can counteract the rotational torque produced by the eccentricity and centrifugal force of the transmitter to forcefully prevent rotation of the transmitter during operation, and limits the mounting direction of the TPMS transmitter, ensuring that the TPMS transmitter is not biased when mounted on the wheel rim, and effectively reducing the risk of the loss of function or reduction in performance of the TPMS transmitter due to biased or backward mounting of the TPMS transmitter.

  • Publication number: 20210116492
    Abstract: A cable accessory device, including a one-way conducting element and a grounding electrode. One end of the one-way conducting element is connected to a conductor structure in a cable, and the other end is connected to the grounding electrode. By applying voltages with different polarities to the one-way conducting element, the one-way conducting element is enabled to have different on/off states. When the on/off state of the one-way conducting element is an on state, the conductor structure in the cable is connected to the grounding electrode via the one-way conducting element, so as to measure direct current resistance of the conductor structure. Moreover, when the on/off state of the one-way conducting element is an off state, the one-way conducting element breaks connection between the conductor structure and the grounding electrode, so as to measure insulation resistance of an insulation structure.
