Automatic car tire pressure detecting apparatus
First Claim
1. An automatic car tire pressure detecting apparatus being disposed at the wheel rim of a tire and a brake pad for detecting tire pressure, comprising:
- an emission means mounted at an inner side of the wheel rim and engaged with an inflation valve of the tire having a generator which includes an emission end and a pressure sensor linking to an air tube, the generator having a coil which has a positive and negative end linking in series with a rectify switch and the emission end; and
a receiving means mounted on the brake pad including a magnet located at a tangent spot corresponding to the coil, a receiving end and a microprocessor attached to a display device;
wherein the tire rotates and causes the magnet continuously cutting the coil to generate electric current thereby generating electric current to actuate the emission end to emit signals which are received by the receiving end, the rectify switch determining if the current flowing therethrough is positive, the positive current being used for actuating the emission end such that the detecting apparatus is capable of providing self-generating power supply to transmit the signals without an external power supply.

Abstract
An automatic car tire pressure detecting apparatus constitutes an emission means located at the wheel rim of the tire and a receiving means located at the brake pad. The emission means includes a generator, an emission end and a pressure sensor. The generator has a coil which has a positive and a negative end linked in series with a rectify switch and the emission end. The receiving means includes a magnet located at a corresponding tangent spot of the coil, a receiving end and a microprocessor attached to a display device. When the tire rotates, the magnet continuously cuts the coil to generate electric current to actuate the emission end. The rectify switch determines if the current flowing therethrough is positive. The positive current will be used for actuating the emission end to emit signals which are received by the receiving end thereby the detecting apparatus is able to provide self-generating power supply to transmit signals without an external power supply.
