Method for monitoring the pressure and assisting in the inflation of a tire of a vehicle wheel
First Claim
1. A method for monitoring the inflation pressure and assisting the reinflation of a tire of a wheel of a vehicle equipped with a system specific to the vehicle for monitoring the inflation pressure of the tires comprising devices for detecting the pressure and temperature of the tires and means for analyzing said pressure and temperature values, wherein the analysis means compare the current value of the inflation pressure of the tire with a setpoint pressure that is corrected as a function of the tire temperature provided by the device for detecting the temperature of the tire and corresponding to a reference temperature dependent on the temperatures measured during the most recent starts of said vehicle.

Abstract
A method for monitoring the inflation pressure and assisting the reinflation of a tire of a wheel of a vehicle equipped with a system specific to the vehicle for monitoring the inflation pressure of the tires. The devices detect the pressure and temperature of the tires of the vehicle, and analyze the pressure and temperature values. The current value of the inflation pressure of the tire is compared with a setpoint pressure that is corrected as a function of the tire temperature provided by the device for detecting the temperature of the tire concerned and corresponding to a reference temperature dependent on the temperatures measured during the most recent starts of said vehicle.
