Abstract
An arrangement of a tire pressure sensor unit on the inner wall of the tread of a vehicle tire in a retaining device for the sensor unit is provided. The retaining device is connected to the inner wall, wherein a sealing compound is applied to the inner wall, or in the case of a retaining device having a closed bottom section which is connected to the inner wall, the sealing compound is applied to the bottom section facing the sensor unit. In the event that a foreign object punctures the inner wall, or punctures the inner wall and the bottom section, the sealing compound prevents at least a short-term loss of pressure caused by the hole resulting therefrom in that the sealing compound at least almost tightly seals the hole.
