20080276700 | Method for monitoring the tire condition in vehicles - In a method for monitoring the tire condition in a vehicle, the vertical acceleration is measured at one axle of the vehicle, a reference stiffness value is determined from the vertical acceleration, and a tire pressure is assigned to the reference stiffness value. In the case of a detected tire pressure loss, the tire pressure is assigned to the tire of the wheel having the pressure loss. | 11-13-2008 |
20100114427 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLINGTHE AIR PRESSURE IN TIRES AS A FUNCTION OF A DRIVING SITUATION, AND DEVICE - A method for controlling the air pressure in tires able to be mounted on two powered axles of a motor vehicle, as a function of a driving situation, an engine torque being distributable to the two axles by a distributor clutch, and a plurality of input values being converted in a processing unit into an air pressure value describing the air pressure in each tire, a clutch friction value, which represents the clutch status, being processed into a control value in the processing unit as well. Also, a device which includes means for implementing such a method. | 05-06-2010 |
20110257829 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MONITORING THE TIRE PRESSURE OF MOTOR VEHICLE TIRES - A method for monitoring the tire pressure of motor vehicle wheels of which at least one is equipped with a tire pressure sensor. The tire pressure can be very easily monitored even at those wheels not having a tire pressure sensor if, at a first wheel having a tire pressure sensor, the tire pressure or a quantity that is a function of the tire pressure is measured and this measurement value is used as a reference value, and in addition a quantity that is a function of the tire pressure is measured at a second wheel that does not have a tire pressure sensor, and the corresponding measurement value is compared to the reference value. | 10-20-2011 |
