Abstract: An electronic wheel unit for detecting a tire pressure of a tire of a vehicle wheel, for storing tire information of the tire and for sending tire pressure information and tire information. The wheel unit is configured to allow the alteration of stored tire information in a first mode of operation and to prevent the alteration of stored tire information in a second mode of operation. To improve the integrity and safety of the stored tire information in this case, the wheel unit is further configured to change from the first mode of operation to the second mode of operation when a first mode change criterion is satisfied. The satisfaction of the first mode change criterion is dependent at least on an operating parameter of the vehicle wheel that is representative of a rotational movement of the vehicle wheel.

Abstract: A pressure medium assembly, in particular for providing and regulating a pressure in a brake circuit of a slip-controllable brake system of a motor vehicle, includes a housing block and an electronic controller. The housing block includes a pump configured to be actuated by a drive motor and a valve, which are actuated by the controller. The controller is secured to an outer face of the housing block and has a device flange that is paired with a housing flange formed on the housing block. The flanges fix the housing block and the controller together. The housing flange protrudes radially outwards relative to a housing block peripheral side facing the housing flange such that the entire upper face of the housing block is available for a controller housing. This configuration additionally allows the use of a printed circuit board which is free of open recesses on the peripheral side.

Abstract: A control device is provided for a wheel-monitoring system of a vehicle which is equipped with vehicle wheels. At least one of the vehicle wheels is equipped with an electronic wheel unit, arranged thereon, for detecting at least one wheel operating parameter of the respective vehicle wheel for transmitting wheel operating data to the control device. The control device makes available an abnormality message in the event of an abnormality which is determined on the basis of the transmitted wheel operating data. The control device also takes into account position data relating to a current position of the vehicle for the determination of the abnormality.

Abstract: A method for determining a tread depth of a tread of a tire during operation of a vehicle comprising the tire, a controller for a vehicle for determining a tread depth of a tread of a tire of the vehicle, and a system for a vehicle, comprising such a controller and at least one electronic wheel unit, wherein there is provision to determine the tread depth based on a determined instantaneous dynamic wheel radius of a wheel, comprising the tire, of the vehicle and a determined instantaneous dynamic inside radius of the tire are disclosed. To improve the accuracy of determination of the tread depth a correction variable predetermined for the type of tire is taken into consideration, which correction variable characterizes the relationship between a change in the tread depth, and a change resulting therefrom in the difference between the dynamic wheel radius and the dynamic inside radius.
