Abstract

A tire safety monitoring GPS display device includes a contact surface of a sensor joined to a tire steel ring by means of a circular fitting fixing agent, and the sensor is fixed onto the tire steel ring hereof. When the sensor circuit interior of the sensor detects internal status of a tire, the transmitting circuit transmits data to an aerial, and further transmits to a main receiver, whereupon status regarding interior of the tire is displayed on a screen of the main receiver. If an anomaly occurs, a communications module transmits a singal to the GPS receiver, at which time displaying on a monitor a car repair workshop at a closest distance from vehicle. Furthermore, if unusual movement in position of the vehicle occurs, the sensor transmits data to the GPS receiver thereby notifying location of the vehicle to a mobile communications device used by a user.

Claims

1. A tire safety monitoring GPS display device comprising a sensor, a belt, a main receiver and a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver, wherein an aerial, a sensor circuit and a transmitting circuit are configured on a circuit board interior of the sensor;

and is structurally characterized in that;

a contact surface of the sensor is joined to a surface of a tire steel ring by means of a circular fitting fixing agent, and an inflation nozzle of the tire steel ring penetrates a through hole of the sensor, and after the belt is made to pass through a through hole of the sensor, the sensor is thereupon securely fixed onto the steel ring of a tire therewith, moreover, an arc-shaped form of the contact surface is utilized to effectuate tight adhering of the sensor to a surface of the tire steel ring;

when the sensor circuit interior of the sensor detects internal status of a tire, the transmitting circuit transmits data to the aerial, and thereon a wireless signal carrying the data is transmitted to the main receiver, whereupon status regarding the pressure and temperature interior of the tire is displayed on a screen of the main receiver;

if an anomaly occurs, a communications module transmits communication to the GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver, at which time the GPS receiver displays on a monitor a car repair workshop at a closest distance from vehicle, furthermore, if unusual movement in position of the vehicle occurs, the sensor transmits a signal to the main receiver, and upon the main receiver receiving the signal, the communications module transmits communication data to the GPS receiver, and a communications module built into the GPS receiver employs wireless communications technology to transmit location of the vehicle to a mobile communications device used by a user.

2. The tire safety monitoring GPS display device according to claim 1, wherein the main receiver and the GPS receiver further adopt wireless signal transmission technology employed by Bluetooth, FM (frequency modulation), AM (amplitude modulation), and related wireless signal transmission technology to transmit signals therewith.

3. The tire safety monitoring GPS display device according to claim 1, wherein a connector port of the main receiver and a connecter port of the GPS receiver further adopt wired signal connection transmission technology employed by RS-232 (Recommended Standard-232, asynchronous serial communication port), USB (Universal Serial Bus), and related wired signal connection transmission technology to transmit signals therewith.

4. The tire safety monitoring GPS display device according to claim 1, wherein the sensor and the main receiver further adopt wireless signal transmission technology employed by Bluetooth, FM (frequency modulation), AM (amplitude modulation), and related wireless signal transmission technology to transmit signals therewith.

5. The tire safety monitoring GPS display device according to claim 1, wherein the communications module of the GPS receiver further adopts wireless signal transmission technology employed by GPS (Global Positioning System), GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) or GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), and related wireless signal transmission technology to transmit signals therewith.
