Side force determination device for automobile tyre uses deformation sensors incorporated in tyre running surface

摘要

The device uses at least one surface wave deformation sensor (3) incorporated in the running surface (2) of the tyre (1), the sensor housing having a flexure beam (5) extending in the sensor longitudinal direction, which coincides with the tyre peripheral direction (7), the flexure beam exhibiting a deformation in the tyre transverse direction.
