Title:
AIR PRESSURE GAUGE ASSEMBLY FOR CONTINUOUS MONITORING OF TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003104753
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An air pressure gauge assembly (10) mounted to the valve stem (20) of a tire for continuous monitoring of the tire inflation pressure without interfering with the common function of a valve stem (20), and an air pressure gauge assembly (10) permanently mounted to the rim of a wheel for continuous monitoring of the tire inflation pressure. Both types of air pressure gauge assemblies (10) are designed to withstand substantial impact and to seal the tire in case the gauge body (11) is accidentally broken off or fractured. Both types of air pressure gauge assemblies (10) include several variations of easy to read dial faces (40).
