  • Patent number: 8245575
    Abstract: A piezoresistive pressure sensor that uses a protective gel to protect the piezoresistive device is susceptible to lead wire failure by vibration-induced waves in the protective gel. Such waves can be reduced and the device made more robust by the use of three-dimensional structures in the gel, which are configured to reduce and/or re-direct vibration-induced pressure waves in the gel. The structures are referred to as “breakwaters” in that they protect lead wires and lead wire connections from wave fronts and the damage that wave-induced pressure on the lead wires causes.

  • Patent number: 7876206
    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).
