Tread support for vehicle tire, has recess for electronic module, located in blocking part which serves to block bead of tire on wheel seat, and support part serving to support load of tire during flat running

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The support (10) has a recess (40) for an electronic module radially opening inside relative to the support. The recess has a parallelepiped shape and is located in a blocking part (18) which serves to block a bead (5) of a tire (1) on a wheel seat (24) intended to carry the bead. A support part (17) serves to support the load of the tire during a flat running. The recess has wedges provided on lateral walls to maintain the electronic module in place. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for an electronic module intended to be disposed in a housing of a thread support. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Used for a tire of a vehicle. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The recess for electronic module is located in the blocking part and not in the support part which is served to support the load of tire, thus minimizing the mechanical stress transmitted to the electronic module during an impact or flat running and hence improving the life time of the electronic module. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a partial meridian cross sectional view of a support, sensor, rim and tire assembly. 1 : Tire 5 : Bead 10 : Thread support 17 : Support part 18 : Blocking part 24 : Wheel seat 40 : Recess.
