Abstract: A tire inflation pressure detecting device includes sensors provided in respective tires of a vehicle to detect various kinds of measured data involving a tire inflation pressure, transmitters for transmitting the measured data and a receiver for receiving the measured data transmitted from the transmitters. In operation, each of the transmitters of the tires transmits the measured data plural times at certain transmitting intervals in a predetermined cycle. Among the transmitters, the respective transmitting intervals are different from each other.

Abstract: A bushing type vibration insulator, for example, used as a suspension bushing of an automotive vehicle. The vibration insulator consists of an outer cylindrical member connected to one member of the suspension. The outer cylindrical member is connected through an elastomeric member with an inner cylindrical member which is connected to another member of the suspension. The inner and outer cylindrical members share a common central longitudinal axis. Two fluid chambers are formed between the outer cylindrical member and the elastomeric member and filled with a fluid. The fluid chambers are communicable through a communication passage formed through an actuator fixedly secured directly to the outer cylindrical member. The actuator is constructed and arranged to block fluid flow through the communication passage under a predetermined condition, thereby raising the spring constant of the vibration insulator.
