METHOD FOR INSTALLING A DETECTING UNIT IN A PNEUMATIC TYRE AND A PNEUMATIC TYRE PROVIDED WITH SAID UNIT

摘要

A method of installing a detecting unit within a pneumatic tyre, comprises the following steps: arranging a tyre (1) having a radially internal surface (20) of substantially toroidal conformation, mounting an antenna (4) on the radially internal surface (20), coupling a first and a second ends (2, 3) of the antenna (4) with a detecting unit (10), and applying an element of heat-shrinkable material onto the detecting unit (10); the last-mentioned element is then heated to define a constraint between the detecting unit (10) and the ends (2, 3) of the antenna (4) , and the detecting unit (10) is associated with the radially internal surface (20) of the tyre (1). Also disclosed is a pneumatic tyre provided with such a detecting unit (10).
