Abstract: A tire monitoring system includes at least one magnet having an exposed face adapted to magnetically attach to an inner barrel of a vehicle wheel within a chamber created between the wheel and a vehicle tire mounted to the wheel. The magnet is connected to a tire monitoring device having a sensor contained therein. The tire monitoring device is attached to the inner barrel using the magnet and positioned in the chamber with the sensor exposed to and sensing a condition present in the chamber. The tire monitoring device can also include a wireless transmitter for wirelessly transmitting a signal indicating the condition.

Abstract: A tire pressure sensing system includes a tire patch having first and second faces. A plate fixed to the second face is oriented perpendicular to a tire patch longitudinal axis. A sensor mount is positioned on the first face and oppositely facing with respect to the plate. The sensor mount includes opposed first and second bias clips and is oriented perpendicular to the tire patch longitudinal axis. At least one plate fastener extends through the tire patch fixes the plate to the second face and the sensor mount to the first face. A tire pressure sensor is releasably retained by first and second sensor fasteners and the first and second bias clips to the sensor mount. The tire pressure sensor is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The tire patch is permanently connected to a tire inner tread wall having the longitudinal axis coaxially aligned with a tire radial centerline.

Abstract: A weight distributing hitch system is provided with a shank and a head which is angularly adjustable relative to the shank. The head includes a plurality of adjustment teeth which are engaged by a toothed caster having corresponding teeth. The toothed caster has a mounting hole which is offset relative to a center of the tooth configuration so as to allow the toothed caster to be rotated 180 degrees in order to allow for angular adjustment of the head relative to the shank. In addition, the head is provided with both, mounting holes for receiving round spring bars and receptor grooves on a lower surface of an upper flange for receiving a trunnion-type spring bar.
