Tire pressure indication system
First Claim
1. An air pressure measuring system for measuring the pressure of pneumatic tires, comprising:
- a bracket structure mounted to an inside surface of a wheel assembly;
at least one air pressure gauge mounted to the bracket structure; and
a pneumatic conduit being in communication with the at least air pressure gauge and a valve stem of a pneumatic tire, wherein the at least one air pressure gauge provides an indication of air pressure of the pneumatic tire to an operator.

Abstract
A tire pressure indication system for a single or dual wheel tire assembly includes a pair of analog/digital readout pressure gauges and associated valve stems for individually monitoring and pressurizing the tire or tires of the wheel assembly. The tire pressure indication system may be attached to the outside wheel of the dual wheel assembly by a bracket structure mounted to the outside wheel with an adhesive tape or other suitable fastener. The tire pressure indication system provides for a tire pressure indication system that can be easily mounted to the wheel tire assembly without the use of a hubcap or other similar mounting structure.
