Base for fixing a pneumatic tire pressure sensor housing to a vehicle wheel rim comprises plate glued or welded to rim and clamp to hold sensor

摘要

Base consists of a plate (100) that can be glued or welded to a wheel rim and is fitted with a releasable clamp (1) for a pressure sensor housing (200). The clamp has hook-shaped projections that engage with matching recesses in the housing, with the assembly preferably made from heat-treated steel. Base consists of a plate (100) that can be glued or welded to a wheel rim and is fitted with a releasable clamp (1) for a pressure sensor housing (200). The clamp has hook-shaped projections that engage with matching recesses in the housing, with the assembly preferably made from heat-treated steel. The plate is made with a groove (110) and a radius of curvature matching that of the wheel rim, and it can be fixed in place with a polymerizable adhesive, with the temperature raised while a pressure is applied to the plate, and reduced after polymerization.
