Tire information detecting system
First Claim
1. A tire information detecting system comprising:
- a plurality of tire information output units, each separately detecting and outputting a tire information signal corresponding to each of a plurality of tires attached to axels; and
a tire information detecting unit for detecting tire conditions of the tires based on the tire information signals transmitted from the tire information output units;
wherein, every time the tire information detecting unit completes a reception process of one of the tire information signals, the tire information detecting unit changes priority in the tire information so as to assign a lowest priority to the processed tire information signal, and, when the plurality of tire information output units transmit a plurality of the tire information signals while the tire information detecting unit is ready for reception, the tire information detecting unit processes one of the tire information signals having a highest priority and discards processes of the other tire information signals having lower priorities.

Abstract
A tire information detecting system includes a plurality of tire information output units that sense and output tire information corresponding to respective tires at predetermined intervals and a tire information detecting unit that detects tire conditions based on the tire information transmitted from the tire information output units while a vehicle is being driven. Every time the tire information detecting unit normally completes processing of one of the tire information signals, the tire information detecting unit changes priority in the tire information so as to assign the lowest priority to the processed tire information signal. When the plurality of tire information output units transmit a plurality of the tire information signals while the tire information detecting unit is ready for reception, the tire information detecting unit processes one of the tire information signals having a higher priority and discards processes of the other tire information signals.

7. The tire information detecting system according to claim 24, wherein the information detecting unit monitors RSSI levels output from the radio receivers and performs the reception processes of the signals output from the radio receivers as the tire information after the RSSI levels exceed a predetermined threshold value.
