TIRE INTERNAL PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A tire internal pressure warning system, comprising:
- an internal pressure data acquisition apparatus for obtaining data of internal pressure of each tire of a vehicle; and
an information terminal device for determining whether there is a puncture-based failure or a failure resulting from a natural pressure drop, based on a change in the internal pressure of each tire received from the internal pressure data acquisition apparatus, and displaying a warning in accordance with the failure condition,wherein the information terminal device is adapted to judge, in determining whether there is a puncture-based failure or a failure resulting from a natural pressure drop based on data of differences in internal pressure between the respective tires, that puncture has occurred when a decrease in internal pressure of at least one tire is below a decrease reference value and a decrease in internal pressure of at least one tire exceeds the decrease reference value.
