Abstract: An finally mountable intelligent tire pressure management system (iTPMS) capable of real-time tire pressure monitoring, vehicle load detection, and automatic tire inflation and deflation for maintaining optimal tire pressure in a commercial vehicle. Additional functions include counting tire rotations for calculating and recording distance travelled for each tire, and detecting wheel sliding due to locked-up tires. The system includes a chassis-mounted control box connecting to the vehicle air supply, an external hubcap cover-mounted dual wheel valve apparatus integrated with a rotary union assembly that connects through the external bracket mounting structure holding the air tubes to the control box. The inflation/deflation supporting dual wheel valve apparatus has an embedded electronic unit that monitors individual tire pressure and temperature in real time, and communicates with the control box over the power and data line.

Furthermore a load sensor integrated with the control box provides the system with the current vehicle load information.
