Title:
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING TIRE GROUNDING FORCE AND PNEUMATIC TIRE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2005082010
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a method and a device for detecting a tire grounding force allowing to know a relation of a force acting when the tread surface of a tread is grounded, and a pneumatic tire mounted with a sensor of the device.

This device is constituted of a tire mounting unit 1 provided with a sensor 10 to output a detection signal having a current value changed according to a resistance change of a pressure-sensitive conductive rubber body 8 deformed at the time of grounding and a vehicle mounting unit 2 provided with a processing part 20 to process the detection signal of the sensor 10. The tire mounting unit 1 has a plurality of sensors 10 disposed along the tread surface direction of the tread 4. The vehicle mounting unit 2 is provided with the processing part 20 to calculate each value of an acted force from the value of the detection signal of each sensor 10.
