Vehicle tyre pressure control device

Abstract

Abstract In a device for monitoring the air pressure inside a pneumatic tyre, supported by the rim of a vehicle wheel, using a pressure or measurement value signal generator which can be acted on by the tyre pressure and in whose circumferential area a measurement value sensor or similar signal sensor which is fixed to the vehicle in a stationary fashion is arranged, the pressure signal generator (56) is arranged near to the axis (A) of the wheel and connected to the inside (33) of the tyre by means of at least one air passage (36; 38; 40) running on or in the rim (26). In addition, the pressure signal generator (56) is to be connected to the inside (33) of the tyre by means of a line which leads to it directly from the rim base (30), and said line is to be made, if appropriate, of flexible material or the air passage is to be at least one channel (38; 40) formed into the rim. <IMAGE>
