  • Patent number: 9459354
    Abstract: A method for car relocation is disclosed. The method is to transmit the ID of a mobile device to a network server, after the engine of a car is turned on. After the engine of the car is turned off, the automobile device or the mobile device transmits GPS coordinate data to the network server via a wireless method. If the automobile device or the mobile device fails to receive the GPS coordinate, the screen of the automobile device will display a frame showing the place where the car is parked, and transmit the related data. By means of the operation of the buttons of the frame, the related data can be transmitted to the network server by the automobile device or the mobile device via the wireless method, and the network server will store related data to overwrite original data.

  • Patent number: 9444923
    Abstract: A method of receiving and replying messages with a hands-free device includes a step of application installation; a step of connection; a step of communication; a step of analyzing the notification message; and a step of voice replying. With the method, text messages sent between mobile devices can be converted into voice messages, so that the user does not have to fetch the mobile device and read the text message, which improves the driving safety when communication is conducted during driving. The user also replies with voice message, which further improves drive safety. Furthermore, the method will prompt the message sending end to install an application program when there is no application program at the message sending end, consequently all potential contacts can be ensured to install the application program.

  • Patent number: 9317617
    Abstract: A trip plan sharing and matching method is disclosed. The method allows a user can edit a destination datum by a map website. When the user presses a share button via a mobile device, the map website transmits the destination datum to a web serve and stores the destination datum in the mobile device account of the web server. The mobile device periodically transmits a first matching message to the web server. When the vehicle mounted device enables a share reception, the vehicle mounted device periodically transmits a second matching message to the web server. If the web server confirms the first matching message to the second matching message, the web serve transmits the destination datum to the vehicle mounted device and then the vehicle mounted device executes a navigation process according to the destination datum.

  • Patent number: 9296266
    Abstract: A method for correcting ID after installation of tire pressure sensors on a vehicle includes: ID reading, ID comparison, ID group setting up and ID burning. An ID setting device reads and compares ID codes of tire pressure sensors of all tires of the vehicle, then confirms the ID group of the ID codes and stores them in a memory module. Reading the ID code of one of the tire pressure sensors can obtain ID codes of the rest tire pressure sensors in the same ID group, therefore all tire pressure sensors can be reproduced without subjecting the receiver to the learning procedure. Or, when some of the sensors break down and the corresponding ID codes cannot be read, the ID codes of all the tires in the same ID group can be obtained by reading other ID codes of the rest tires in the same ID group.

  • Patent number: 9278591
    Abstract: A flexible reinforced tire valve is disclosed. The flexible reinforced tire valve comprises a tube body, a flexible sleeve and a collar. The flexible sleeve is further disposed with a second blocking edge. When the flexible reinforced tire valve is installed on the wheel rim, the upper edge of the collar presses against the second blocking edge and the lower edge of the collar presses against an outer surface of the wheel rim so as to strengthen the durability of the tire valve against centrifugal force, whereby the tire will not leak even if the vehicle moves at high speed.

  • Publication number: 20150375583
    Abstract: A reinforced tire valve is disclosed. The reinforced tire valve comprises a tube body, a flexible sleeve and a tire pressure detecting device, wherein the casing of the tire pressure detecting device presses against the clamping part, which can not only prevent the flexible sleeve from being twisted out of shape due to aging, but also can transfer the torsional force generated from the centrifugal force to the flexible sleeve to prevent the reinforced tire valve from being skewed by the centrifugal force, whereby the tire will not leak even if the vehicle moves at high speed.

  • Publication number: 20150309782
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an application program download and update method for vehicle device. The method includes installing a proprietary micro-management application program in a mobile device, and when a network server has an update file for a vehicle device, the network server pushes an update note to the mobile device. The user is then able to download the update file to the mobile device and, through a connection between the mobile device and the vehicle device, transmit the update file from the mobile device to the vehicle device to run a program update of the vehicle device. The vehicle owner is thus able to download the update program to update the vehicle device himself, thereby eliminating the formality and inconvenience of having to return the vehicle for servicing.
