<p>A connection system between valve and sensor for vehicle tyres is described comprising a valve (10) fitted in a hole (5) of the bead (1) of the rim of the wheel and a sensor (40) connected to the valve (10) and positioned inside the chamber formed between the bead and the tyre to read parameters of the tyre and in conformity transmit electric signals to a receiver positioned outside the tyre chamber. The valve comprises a tail (18) positioned inside the chamber of the tyre and a head (16) fitted outside the chamber to receive an air supply nozzle. The tail (18) of the valve (10) is substantially spherical and engages, in spherical fit relation, in a substantially spherical slot (44) provided in the sensor in order to hold the sensor and allow its self-positioning on the rim bead (1) inside the tyre chamber. The valve (10) comprises locking means (23) positioned outside the tyre chamber to act as a check against the rim bead. <IMAGE></p> |
