Abstract
A tire includes a nail-type force sensor embedded, for example, in an isolated element such as a tread pattern block (T112). The sensor comprises a rigid shank (1) designed to be acted upon by the force to be determined and a head (2). The head (2) comprises an element attached to the shank (1) capable of being deformed when the shank is displaced. This deformable element carries means to measure the deformation and comprises anchoring points which have a position relative to the shank (1) at rest and which essentially maintain that position when the shank (1) is displaced.
