摘要 |
A tire pressure management system (10) for a vehicle (12) is provided. The system includes an air source (32) and a pressure control valve (82) disposed between the air source (32) and the tires (28) of the vehicle (12). The system further includes pressure sensing circuits (38) that transmit radio-frequency signals indicative of pressure within the tires (28) of the vehicle and one or more load sensors (44) that transmit load indicative signals indicative of the load on the vehicle (12) or a portion of the vehicle (12). Finally, the system includes an electronic control unit (42) that controls the pressure control valve (82) responsive to the radio-frequency signals and/or the load indicative signals to thereby control pressure within the vehicle tires (28). <IMAGE> |
