发明名称 METHOD OF ENCAPSULATING AN ELECTRONIC TIRE TAG
摘要 A tire tag includes a monitoring package (14), a battery (16), and an antenn a (18) encapsulated within an encapsulation mold. The antenna is connected to the encapsulation mold (46) so that the antenna does not move during the encapsulation process. The antenna remains spaced apart from the monitoring package but connected to the monitoring package by connectors (52) that are completely surrounded by encapsulation material so that the connectors are protected during the operation of the tire tag. The antenna may be connected to the encapsulation mold by an adhesive, by pins, by an interference fit, o r by clips. The connection between the antenna and the monitoring device may b e made by soldered wires or by spring loaded connector pins. The method of encapsulating the tire tag in this manner allows the position of the antenna to be precisely known before, during, and after the encapsulation process.
