Description

Weight measuring system for vehicle tire

The present invention relates to an apparatus that can measure the tire load and facilitate management of tire air pressure and overload.

In the case of trucks and buses, the actual load applied to the tires is determined as a standard, and compensation is performed based on the accident, so load measurement is an important requirement. Thus, a number of techniques for measuring overload have been introduced.

Publication No. 10-2002-0079637 discloses a technique for a portable device which measures the pressure of a tire and indicates whether it is overloaded. The present invention is a portable overload measuring device for measuring the overpressure by measuring the air pressure of the vehicle tire, connected to the tire binder and the tire binder and the tube is connected to the air inlet path of the vehicle tire to measure the internal air pressure of the vehicle tire An air pressure measuring unit including an A / D converter converting the digital value into a digital value; A storage unit for storing data on the reference air pressure of the vehicle tire at each position based on the type of the vehicle, the weight of the vehicle body, the type of the tire, the number of tires in the case of a double-wheeled vehicle, and an appropriate load load weight; An input unit for inputting the type of vehicle, the weight of the vehicle body, the type of tire, the number of tires in the case of a double-wheeled vehicle, and an appropriate load loading weight; A microcomputer that determines whether the vehicle is overloaded by comparing the internal air pressure of the vehicle tire measured by the air pressure measurer with the reference air pressure of the vehicle tire detected based on the information input through the input unit; A display unit for outputting information input by the input unit, a reference air pressure and measured air pressure according to the information, a result of overload or the like; A power supply for supplying power for the operation of each component; It relates to a portable overload measuring device comprising a.

However, the technique can only measure when the vehicle is stationary, and does not provide a record of what happened during operation in the event of an accident.

In other words, it is possible to measure the load state of the tire even while the vehicle is running, and a technique for grasping the tire load state immediately before an accident even in an accident is required.

Accordingly, the present invention is to solve the above problems by installing a pressure measuring device using a piezoelectric element on the wheel of the vehicle, and display it in real time, and storing the measured value in the memory.

According to the present invention, it is possible to continuously measure the load state of the tire even while the vehicle is running, and to provide useful data on the accident situation by checking the data stored in the memory of the tire load state immediately before the accident even in an accident. There is.

The tire load measuring apparatus of the present invention includes a tire pressure measuring apparatus (1) including a piezoelectric element (11), a wireless transmitter (2) for transmitting information measured by the pressure measuring apparatus (1), and transmitted information. A receiving device 3 for receiving, a central processing unit 4 for calculating and processing loads from the received information, a memory 5 for storing information processed in the central processing unit, and the processed Characterized in that it comprises a display device (6) for displaying information.

The pressure measuring device 1 is installed on the wheel 7 of the vehicle, and includes a valve body 12, a valve cap 13, an annular piezoelectric element 11, and a pressure pin 14. The pressure measuring device 1 is installed in an air injection valve that is usually installed on the wheel. The piezoelectric element 11 is inserted into the space in the valve body 12 and is installed, and the pressure pin 14 is disposed on the lower portion of the piezoelectric element 11.

The air in the tire pushes the pressure pin 14 so that the cone portion flange 141 of the pressure pin 14 pressurizes the piezoelectric element 11 to measure the pressure. In the state in which air is injected, the pressure pin 14 is closed by the air pressure inside the tire, and when the air is injected, the pressure is pushed toward the inside of the tire to create a space, and air is injected into this space. The pressure pin 14 may form a passage therein so as not to completely block the air inlet, or the bottom surface may be formed in a cross shape rather than a circular shape.

The electrical signal generated by the pressure pin 14 pressing the piezoelectric element 11 is sent to the central processing unit 4 through the wireless transmitter 2 and the receiver 3. The central processing unit 4 has a microprocessor, which calculates the load by multiplying the cross-sectional area of the air valve by the measured air pressure (F (kgf) = A (cm 2 ) * P (kgf / cm 2). )).

In addition, the central processing unit performs statistical calculations such as the average of the calculated loads and how often the limit value is exceeded, and these calculation results are stored in the memory device 5. In the event of an accident, data stored in the memory device 5 may be referred to.

Furthermore, the results calculated by the central processing unit 4 are displayed on the display device 6 in real time so that the driver can check them at any time. The display apparatus 6 may use a vehicle navigation system or the like, and a separate LCD screen may be installed.

On the other hand, in applying the piezoelectric element 11, it is preferable to adjust the zero point to the electric signal under the prescribed pressure of the tire.
