Wheel servicing method and system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A wheel servicing method for a wheeled vehicle with tyres coupled to respective rims, the method comprising:
- receiving, in a control unit provided with a processor and a memory, reference data uniquely correlated with the vehicle;
capturing first measurement data relating to at least one wheel of the vehicle, the first measurement data being obtained at a first diagnosis time;
capturing second measurement data relating to said at least one wheel of the vehicle, the second measurement data being obtained at a second diagnosis time subsequent to the first diagnosis time;
processing the reference data and generating image data representing a QR code containing the reference data;
processing the first and second measurement data as a function of the reference data;
including at least part of the first measurement data and at least part of the second measurement data in the image data representing the QR code, for keeping track of measurement data obtained at successive diagnosis times; and
transmitting the QR code to an output peripheral in order to make the code available to a user for subsequent displaying.

Abstract
A wheel servicing method, for a wheeled vehicle with tires coupled to respective rims, comprises a step of receiving, in a control unit provided with a processor and a memory, reference data uniquely correlated with the vehicle. The method also comprises a step of processing the reference data and generating image data representing a QR code and a step of transmitting the QR code to an output peripheral in order to make the code available to a user for subsequent displaying.

10. A wheel servicing system for a wheeled vehicle with tyres coupled to respective rims, comprising:
-
a control unit provided with a processor and a memory; a user interface connected to the control unit and configured to receive reference data uniquely correlated with the vehicle and to transmit them to the control unit; one or more measuring devices configured to capture, at a first diagnosis time, first measurement data relating to at least one wheel of the vehicle, and, at a second diagnosis time subsequent to the first diagnosis time, second measurement data relating to said at least one wheel, wherein said one or more measuring devices are connected to the control unit to transmit the first measurement data and the second measurement data to the control unit; an output peripheral connected to the control unit; wherein the control unit is programmed to process the reference data, and to process the first and second measurement data as a function of the reference data, to generate image data representing a QR code, the QR code including the reference data, at least part of the first measurement data and at least part of the second measurement data, for keeping track of measurement data obtained at successive diagnosis times; and wherein the control unit is configured to transmit the QR code to the output peripheral, which is configured to make the QR code available to a user for subsequent displaying. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
