Background technique

Then, the car control center unit (ECU) commands the various actuators according to the received tire puncture signal to ensure the safety of the car after the tire bursts.

但是, 上述爆胎检测系统存在以下问题:  However, the above-mentioned puncture detection system has the following problems:

1、 安装在汽车轮胎上的压力传感装置其体积较大, 质量也较大, 因此在车轮高速 旋转时其产生的离心力也较大, 这就严重的影响了车轮的动平衡, 影响汽车行驶的安全 性和平稳性;  1. The pressure sensing device installed on the tire of the car has a large volume and a large mass. Therefore, the centrifugal force generated when the wheel rotates at a high speed is also large, which seriously affects the dynamic balance of the wheel and affects the driving of the car. Safety and stability;

2、 由于压力传感装置是通过无线传输的方式向汽车控制中心单元(ECU) 来传递 轮胎爆胎信号, 所以需要电源(如电池)供电, 这就存在电池使用寿命的问题;  2. Since the pressure sensing device transmits the tire puncture signal to the car control center unit (ECU) by wireless transmission, it needs power supply (such as battery), which has the problem of battery life;

3、 由于在夏季汽车高速行驶时会使轮胎温升较大(近 80〜10(TC ) , 这就要求压 力传感装置的电器元件对温度的变化有较高的稳定性, 因此成本较高。  3. Because the tire temperature rises greatly when the car is driving at high speed in summer (nearly 80~10(TC), this requires the electrical components of the pressure sensing device to have higher stability to temperature changes, so the cost is higher. .

4、 压力传感装置是通过无线传输的方式向汽车控制中心单元 (ECU)传递爆胎信 号, 可能因外界电磁信号干扰导致爆胎信号传递失败, 延误时机, 可靠性得不到保障。 发明内容  4. The pressure sensing device transmits the puncture signal to the car control center unit (ECU) by means of wireless transmission.

此外, 本发明还提出一种车辆轮胎爆胎检测方法, 其包括:  In addition, the present invention also provides a vehicle tire puncture detection method, which includes:

在车辆轮胎的封闭胎腔内或腔壁外侧上安装一信号源, 并对应该信号源设置一检 测元件, 在爆胎发生时, 该信号源能移动以改变其与检测元件间的距离, 从而使得检测 元件检测到的信号发生变化;  Mounting a signal source in the closed tire cavity of the vehicle tire or outside the cavity wall, and providing a detecting component to the signal source, the signal source can be moved to change the distance between the detecting component and the detecting component when the tire burst occurs, thereby Causing a change in the signal detected by the detecting element;

结合图 1和图 1A所示, 永磁体装置 2发出的磁信号由霍尔传感器 3感应接收, 霍 尔传感器 3根据与永磁体装置 2之间因距离的变化而接收到的由磁信号强弱产生的脉冲 信号通过信号线 71输入控制中心单元, 经过控制中心单元检测处理后输出指令, 通过 信号线 7输送到爆胎稳向装置和自动减速装置等执行装置,使其转为控制车辆稳定的工 作状态。  As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 1A, the magnetic signal emitted by the permanent magnet device 2 is inductively received by the Hall sensor 3, and the magnetic signal is received by the Hall sensor 3 according to the change in distance from the permanent magnet device 2. The generated pulse signal is input to the control center unit through the signal line 71, and is outputted after being detected and processed by the control center unit, and sent to the execution device such as the puncture stabilization device and the automatic deceleration device through the signal line 7 to be converted into a stable vehicle control device. Working status.

该车辆轮胎爆胎检测装置的工作原理如下:  The working principle of the vehicle tire puncture detecting device is as follows:

如图 1所示, 当车辆轮胎 1的气压正常时, 永磁体装置 2随车轮转到地面 8处时, 永磁体装置 2与霍尔传感器 3的感应端距离为 Γι,此时霍尔传感器 3根据接收到的永磁 体装置 2发出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 V , 并通过信号线将脉冲电压信号 输送到控制中心单元, 控制中心单元就会将该信号与预先设定的爆胎信号范围相比较, 判定该信号是否正常, 由于此时信号正常, 控制中心单元没有指令输出, 爆胎稳向装置 和自动减速装置等执行装置不工作; As shown in FIG. 1, when the air pressure of the vehicle tire 1 is normal, when the permanent magnet device 2 is turned to the ground 8 with the wheel, the distance between the permanent magnet device 2 and the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 is , ι , and the Hall sensor 3 at this time The pulse voltage signal generated according to the received magnetic signal from the permanent magnet device 2 is V, and the pulse voltage signal is transmitted through the signal line. Delivered to the control center unit, the control center unit compares the signal with a preset range of the puncture signal to determine whether the signal is normal. Since the signal is normal, the control center unit has no command output, and the puncture stabilization device Execution devices such as automatic deceleration devices do not work;

如图 1A所示, 当车辆轮胎 1爆胎后, 永磁体装置 2随车轮转到地面 8处时, 车辆 轮胎受挤压使永磁体装置 2与霍尔传感器 3的感应端距离变为为 r2, 此时霍尔传感器 3 根据接收到的永磁体装置 2发出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 Vr2, 并通过信号 线将该脉冲电压信号输送到控制中心单元, 控制中心单元就会将该脉冲电压信号与预 先设定的爆胎信号范围相比较, 判定该信号是否正常, 由于此时信号异常, 该脉冲电压 信号位于该爆胎信号范围内, 因此, 控制中心单元判定发生爆胎, 并向执行装置 5发出 指令, 执行装置 5 (如爆胎稳向装置和自动减速装置等)迅速转为工作状态, 以稳定车 辆行驶状态。 As shown in FIG. 1A, when the tire 1 of the vehicle is puncture, when the permanent magnet device 2 is turned to the ground 8 with the wheel, the tire of the vehicle is squeezed so that the distance between the permanent magnet device 2 and the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 becomes r. 2 , at this time, the Hall sensor 3 generates a pulse voltage signal value of Vr 2 according to the magnetic signal emitted by the permanent magnet device 2, and transmits the pulse voltage signal to the control center unit through the signal line, and the control center unit The pulse voltage signal is compared with a preset range of the puncture signal to determine whether the signal is normal. Since the signal is abnormal at this time, the pulse voltage signal is located in the range of the puncture signal, and therefore, the control center unit determines that the explosion occurs. The tire, and an instruction is issued to the actuator 5, and the actuator 5 (such as a puncture stabilization device and an automatic deceleration device) is quickly turned into an operating state to stabilize the running state of the vehicle.

在车辆轮胎爆胎检测装置的整个工作过程中, 控制中心单元根据接收到的霍尔传 感器所产生的脉冲电信号值(如脉冲电压信号值, 但不限于此)与预先设定的值相比较 来判断车辆爆胎, 其判断轮胎爆胎原理如下- 图 1和图 1A中的 、 r2分别表示永磁体装置 2位于第一位置、 第二位置时(即车 辆轮胎 1胎压正常和轮胎爆胎后)自霍尔传感器 3的感应端到固定在轮胎 1胎侧壁上的 永磁体装置 2的距离, 本实施例中, 显然车辆轮胎气压正常时霍尔传感器 3的感应端与 永磁体装置 2之间的距离 Γι大于轮胎爆胎后霍尔传感器 3的感应端与永磁体装置 2之间 的距离 r2During the whole operation of the vehicle tire puncture detecting device, the control center unit compares the pulse electric signal value (such as the pulse voltage signal value, but not limited thereto) generated by the received Hall sensor with a preset value. To judge the vehicle puncture, the principle of judging the tire puncture is as follows - r 2 in Fig. 1 and Fig. 1A respectively indicate that the permanent magnet device 2 is in the first position and the second position (ie, the tire pressure of the vehicle tire 1 is normal and the tire blasts The distance from the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 to the permanent magnet device 2 fixed to the sidewall of the tire 1 in this embodiment, in this embodiment, it is apparent that the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 and the permanent magnet device when the vehicle tire pressure is normal Γι distance between the tires is greater than 2 between the puncture Houhuo Er sensor senses the end of the permanent magnet 3 apparatus r 2.

霍尔传感器 3根据接收永磁体装置 2发出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 V The Hall sensor 3 generates a pulse voltage signal value of V according to the magnetic signal emitted from the permanent magnet device 2.

= k/r2 (k为常数) , 则对应地, Vri<Vr2 ; 本发明在具体应用时, 可将控制中心单元的 预先设置爆胎参数的范围值在 Vri+2 (Vr2-Vri) /3和 Vr2之间, 这样凡是霍尔传感器 3 所产生的脉冲电压信号值在该数值范围内的情况,控制中心单元即可判定轮胎处于爆胎 状态, 否则为正常。 如图 2、 图 2A所示, 为本发明的车辆轮胎爆胎检测装置的第二实施例的结构示意 图。 本实施例的检测装置包括安装于封闭胎腔内的轮辋 11外圆周表面的永磁体装置 2 及与该永磁体装置 2对应的霍尔传感器 3。霍尔传感器 3固定于车轮支架 12上,且所述 霍尔传感器 3的感应接收端指向轮胎与地面接触点方向; 永磁体装置 2包括与轮辋 11 相对固定的固定座 21以及可移动安装在固定座上的永磁体 22。 在轮胎正常工作时, 该 固定座 21使得所述永磁体 22与所述霍尔传感器 3保持一定距离,且能支持所述永磁体 有一定的位移量, 以保证在轮胎爆破时, 该永磁体 22能够借助轮胎变形挤压作用移向 霍尔传感器 3。 = k / r 2 (k is a constant), then correspondingly, V ri <Vr 2 ; in the specific application of the present invention, the range value of the pre-set puncture parameter of the control center unit can be in V ri +2 (Vr 2 -V ri ) /3 and Vr 2 , so that when the value of the pulse voltage signal generated by the Hall sensor 3 is within this value range, the control center unit can determine that the tire is in a puncture state, otherwise it is normal. 2 and 2A are schematic views showing the structure of a second embodiment of the tire tire puncture detecting device of the present invention. The detecting device of this embodiment includes a permanent magnet device 2 mounted on an outer circumferential surface of a rim 11 that closes a tire cavity, and a Hall sensor 3 corresponding to the permanent magnet device 2. The Hall sensor 3 is fixed to the wheel bracket 12, and the sensing receiving end of the Hall sensor 3 is directed to the contact point of the tire with the ground; the permanent magnet device 2 includes a fixing seat 21 fixed to the rim 11 and movably mounted on the fixed Permanent magnet 22 on the seat. When the tire is working properly, The fixing seat 21 keeps the permanent magnet 22 at a certain distance from the Hall sensor 3, and can support the permanent magnet to have a certain displacement amount to ensure that the permanent magnet 22 can be squeezed by the tire deformation when the tire is blasted. The action moves to the Hall sensor 3.

固定座 21通过一固定连接装置固定在轮辋 11上, 该固定连接装置可以采用固定 套装在轮辋 11外周表面的卡箍 40, 如图 2B和图 2C所示, 固定座 21固定(如焊接)安 装在卡箍 40上, 将带有永磁体装置 2的卡箍 40套设与轮辋 11外周后, 可利用螺丝将 二端部连接紧固, 较佳地, 该固定座 21的安装位置与卡箍 40的紧固端位置相对于车轮 回转轴线对称, 以保证车轮回转的平衡。  The fixing base 21 is fixed on the rim 11 by a fixing connecting device, and the fixing connecting device can fix the clamp 40 fixed on the outer circumferential surface of the rim 11, as shown in FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, the fixing seat 21 is fixed (such as welding). On the clamp 40, after the clip 40 with the permanent magnet device 2 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the rim 11, the two end portions can be fastened by screws, preferably, the mounting position and the clamp of the fixing seat 21 are The position of the fastening end of 40 is symmetrical with respect to the axis of rotation of the wheel to ensure a balance of wheel rotation.

本实施例中, 为了能够保证该检测装置的有效动作, 使永磁体 22在轮胎胎压正常 时远离霍尔传感器 3而在轮胎爆胎时靠近霍尔传感器 3,该固定座 21较佳是为一安装筒 的形式, 如图 2D所示, 永磁体 22牢固地装在磁钢套 24内并通过壳体 23螺纹连接安装 于安装筒筒腔内, 且远离轮辋 11的一端伸出壳体 23, 在受到外力时, 该永磁体 22可随 磁钢套 24向内侧移动; 此外, 可在安装筒筒腔内设有推动永磁体 22远离轮辋 11从而 与霍尔传感器保持一定距离的弹簧(图中未示出) , 或在安装筒筒腔内设有能夹持永磁 体 22使永磁体远离轮辋 11从而与霍尔传感器保持一定距离的弹性夹持圈(如橡胶夹持 圈) 的方式 (图中未示出) , 这些结构简单有效。  In this embodiment, in order to ensure the effective operation of the detecting device, the permanent magnet 22 is away from the Hall sensor 3 when the tire pressure is normal, and is close to the Hall sensor 3 when the tire is in a tire burst. The fixing seat 21 is preferably In the form of a mounting cylinder, as shown in FIG. 2D, the permanent magnet 22 is firmly mounted in the magnetic steel sleeve 24 and is screwed into the mounting cylinder cavity through the housing 23, and the end away from the rim 11 extends out of the housing 23. When subjected to an external force, the permanent magnet 22 can move inward with the magnetic steel sleeve 24; in addition, a spring that pushes the permanent magnet 22 away from the rim 11 to maintain a certain distance from the Hall sensor can be disposed in the mounting cylinder cavity (Fig. (not shown), or in the installation cylinder cavity is provided with a way to clamp the permanent magnet 22 to keep the permanent magnet away from the rim 11 to maintain a certain distance from the Hall sensor (such as rubber clamping ring) (Figure These structures are simple and effective.

与前一实施例类似, 可以在车轮支架 12上设有一安装座, 霍尔传感器通过固定螺 丝固定在车轮支架 12的安装座上, 使霍尔传感器 3感应接收端指向轮胎与地面接触点 方向, 并且较佳是位于轮胎 1与地面 8的接触点和车轮回转轴线的平面上(或位于永磁 体装置绕车轮轴线的回转平面上) , 以保证信号接收的可靠性。 霍尔传感器 3输出端通 过信号线 71接控制中心单元,控制中心单元的电能来自通过导线连接的车辆电瓶 6,执 行装置 5 可包括用于稳定车辆转向的爆胎稳向装置和用于控制车辆制动的自动减速装 置, 以解决在车辆轮胎爆胎后出现的车辆偏向以及驾驶者过度反应的问题, 从而大大提 高车辆轮胎爆胎后车辆的安全性。  Similar to the previous embodiment, a mounting seat can be disposed on the wheel bracket 12, and the Hall sensor is fixed to the mounting seat of the wheel bracket 12 by a fixing screw, so that the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 is directed to the contact point between the tire and the ground. It is preferably located on the plane of contact between the tire 1 and the ground 8 and the axis of rotation of the wheel (or on the plane of revolution of the permanent magnet device about the axis of the wheel) to ensure reliability of signal reception. The output of the Hall sensor 3 is connected to the control center unit via a signal line 71. The power of the control center unit is from the vehicle battery 6 connected by wires, and the actuator 5 may include a puncture stabilization device for stabilizing the steering of the vehicle and for controlling the vehicle. The automatic deceleration device for braking solves the problem of vehicle deflection and the driver's excessive reaction after the tire tire is smashed, thereby greatly improving the safety of the vehicle after the tire is punctured.

如图 2、 图 2A所示, 永磁体 22发出的磁信号由霍尔传感器 3感应接收, 霍尔传感 器 3根据与永磁体 22之间因距离的变化而接收到的由磁信号强弱产生的脉冲电信号通 过信号线 71输入控制中心单元, 经过控制中心单元判断处理后输出指令, 再通过信号 线 7输送到爆胎稳向装置和自动减速装置等执行装置,使其转为控制车辆稳定的工作状 态。  As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 2A, the magnetic signal emitted by the permanent magnet 22 is inductively received by the Hall sensor 3, and the Hall sensor 3 is generated by the strength of the magnetic signal according to the change in distance from the permanent magnet 22.

Working status.

结合本实施例关于该爆胎检测装置的详细描述以及前一实施例关于检测系统和检 测方法的描述,本领域的技术人员可以清楚了解应用本实施例的前述爆胎检测装置的检 测系统和检测方法, 因此, 此处不再赘述。 A detailed description of the puncture detecting device in connection with the embodiment and the previous embodiment regarding the detecting system and the detecting For the description of the measurement method, the detection system and the detection method of the aforementioned puncture detecting device of the present embodiment can be clearly understood by those skilled in the art, and therefore, details are not described herein again.

本实施例中, 该爆胎检测装置工作原理如下:  In this embodiment, the working principle of the puncture detecting device is as follows:

如图 2所示, 当轮胎 1的气压正常时, 永磁体 22随车轮轮辋 11转到位于轮胎与 地面 8接触点时, 永磁体 22与霍尔传感器 3的感应端距离为 , 此时霍尔传感器 3根 据接收永磁体 22发出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 V , 并通过信号线 71将信 号输送到控制中心单元 4, 控制中心单元 4就会将该信号与预先设定的爆胎参数相比 较, 判定信号是否正常, 由于此时信号正常, 控制中心单元没有指令输出, 爆胎稳向装 置和自动减速装置等执行装置不工作。  As shown in FIG. 2, when the air pressure of the tire 1 is normal, the permanent magnet 22 is turned with the wheel rim 11 at the contact point of the tire and the ground 8, and the distance between the permanent magnet 22 and the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 is, at this time, Hall. The sensor 3 generates a pulse voltage signal value V according to the magnetic signal emitted from the permanent magnet 22, and transmits the signal to the control center unit 4 through the signal line 71, and the control center unit 4 transmits the signal with a preset explosion. Comparing the tire parameters, it is determined whether the signal is normal. Since the signal is normal at this time, the control center unit has no command output, and the execution device such as the puncture stabilization device and the automatic deceleration device does not work.

如图 2A所示, 当轮胎 1爆胎后, 永磁体 22随车轮轮辋 11转到位于轮胎与地面 8 接触点时, 车辆轮胎受挤压推动永磁体 22向车轮轮辋 11靠近, 使永磁体 22位于第二 位置, 其与霍尔传感器 3的感应端距离为 r2, 此时霍尔传感器 3根据接收永磁体 22发 出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 Vr2,并通过信号线 71将该信号输送到控制中心 单元, 控制中心单元就会将该信号与预先设定的爆胎参数相比较, 判定信号是否正常, 由于此时信号异常, 控制中心单元发出指令, 执行装置(如爆胎稳向装置和自动减速装 置等)迅速转为工作状态, 以稳定车辆行驶状态。 As shown in FIG. 2A, when the tire 1 is blown, the permanent magnet 22 is turned to the point where the tire is in contact with the ground 8 as the wheel rim 11 is pressed, and the vehicle tire is pushed to push the permanent magnet 22 toward the wheel rim 11 to make the permanent magnet 22 Located at the second position, the distance from the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 is r 2 . At this time, the Hall sensor 3 generates a pulse voltage signal value of Vr 2 according to the magnetic signal emitted from the permanent magnet 22, and passes the signal line 71. The signal is sent to the control center unit, and the control center unit compares the signal with a preset puncture parameter to determine whether the signal is normal. Because the signal is abnormal at this time, the control center unit issues an instruction to execute the device (such as a burst). The tire stabilizing device and the automatic deceleration device are quickly turned into a working state to stabilize the running state of the vehicle.

在爆胎检测装置的整个工作过程中, 控制中心单元根据接收到的霍尔传感器所产 生的脉冲电压信号值与预先设定的值相比较来判断车辆是否发生爆胎,其判断轮胎爆胎 原理如下:  During the whole operation of the puncture detecting device, the control center unit determines whether the vehicle has a puncture according to the value of the pulse voltage signal generated by the received Hall sensor and compares the preset value, and determines the tire puncture principle. as follows:

Distance, it is apparent that the distance between the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 and the permanent magnet 22 when the vehicle tire pressure is normal is greater than the distance r2 between the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 and the permanent magnet 22 after the tire puncture.

霍尔传感器 3根据接收永磁体 22发出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 V=k/r2 (k为常数) , 则 Vri<Vr2 ; 具体应用时, 可将控制中心单元的爆胎参数的范围值设置 在 Vri+2 (Vr2-Vri) /3和 Vr2之间 (但不限于此) , 这样凡是霍尔传感器 3所产生的脉 冲电压信号值在该数值范围内的情况, 控制中心单元即可判定轮胎处于爆胎状态, 否则 为正常。 如图 3〜图 3B所示,为本发明车辆轮胎爆胎检测装置的第三实施例的结构示意图, 本实施例的爆胎检测装置包括设置封闭胎腔内的轮辋 11外圆周表面的永磁体装置 2及 与该永磁体装置对应的霍尔传感器 3, 本实施例的霍尔传感器的设置方式可与第二实施 例相同, 即固定于车轮支架 12上, 其感应接收端指向轮胎与地面接触点方向, 霍尔传 感器 3对应设置于于永磁体 22绕车轮轴线回转的平面, 以保证信号接收的可靠性; 本 实施例与前一实施例的主要区别点在于永磁体装置的结构不同。本实施例中, 所述永磁 体装置 2采用摆杆结构来实现,即其以摆杆座 21作为固定座,摆杆座 21上设有转轴 28, 转轴 28上安装有可绕所述转轴 28摆动的摆杆 26,且摆杆 26靠近所述轮辋 11的一端固 定安装有永磁体 22,且摆杆 26的另一端径向高出轮辋 11的边缘而突出设置, 以便于爆 胎后变形的轮胎能够对摆杆 26进行有效地推动; 此外, 还可在摆杆 26上连接摆杆复位 装置 25, 以便在更换轮胎后回复原位, 继续使用。 The value of the pulse voltage signal generated by the Hall sensor 3 according to the magnetic signal emitted by the receiving permanent magnet 22 is V=k/r 2 (k is a constant), then V ri <Vr 2 ; in specific applications, the control center unit can be The range value of the puncture parameter is set between V ri +2 (Vr 2 -V ri ) /3 and Vr 2 (but is not limited thereto), so that the pulse voltage signal value generated by the Hall sensor 3 is in the value range. In the case of inside, the control center unit can determine that the tire is in a puncture state, otherwise it is normal. 3 to FIG. 3B, which is a schematic structural view of a third embodiment of a vehicle tire puncture detecting device according to the present invention.

Preferably, the mounting position and the fixed card of the swing lever seat 21 are fixed.

结合本实施例中关于爆胎检测装置的详细描述以及前一实施例关于检测系统和检 测方法的描述,本领域的技术人员可以清楚了解应用本实施例的前述爆胎检测装置的检 测系统和检测方法, 因此, 此处不再赘述。  With reference to the detailed description of the puncture detecting device in the present embodiment and the description of the detecting system and the detecting method in the previous embodiment, those skilled in the art can clearly understand the detecting system and the detecting of the aforementioned puncture detecting device to which the present embodiment is applied. The method, therefore, will not be described here.

本实施例的爆胎检测装置的工作原理如下:  The working principle of the puncture detecting device of this embodiment is as follows:

如图 3A所示, 当车辆轮胎 1的胎压正常时, 永磁体 22随车轮轮辋 11转到位于轮 胎与地面 8接触点时,永磁体 22与霍尔传感器 3的感应端距离为 ,此时霍尔传感器 3 根据接收永磁体 22发出的磁信号所产生的脉冲电压信号值为 V , 并通过信号线 71将 信号输送到控制中心单元 4, 控制中心单元就会将该信号与预先设定的爆胎参数值相比 较, 判定信号是否正常, 因此时信号正常, 控制中心单元 4没有指令输出, 爆胎稳向装 置和自动减速装置等执行装置 5不工作。 As shown in FIG. 3A, when the tire pressure of the vehicle tire 1 is normal, the permanent magnet 22 is turned to the wheel with the wheel rim 11 When the tire is in contact with the ground 8, the distance between the permanent magnet 22 and the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 is such that the pulse voltage signal generated by the Hall sensor 3 according to the magnetic signal emitted from the permanent magnet 22 is V, and the signal is passed. Line 71 delivers the signal to control center unit 4, which compares the signal to a pre-set puncture parameter value to determine if the signal is normal, so that the signal is normal, control center unit 4 has no command output, and bursts The actuator 5 such as the tire stabilizer and the automatic speed reduction device does not operate.

The sensor 3 has a sensing end distance r 2 therebetween. At this time, the Hall sensor 3 generates a pulse voltage signal value of Vr 2 according to the magnetic signal emitted from the permanent magnet 22, and passes the signal line 71. The signal is sent to the control center unit, and the control center unit compares the signal with a preset value to determine whether the signal is normal. Since the signal is abnormal at this time, the control center unit 4 issues an instruction to execute the device 5 (such as a tire blown stable). The device and the automatic deceleration device are quickly turned into a working state to stabilize the running state of the vehicle.

The principle is as follows:

图 3A和图 3B中的 、 r2分别表示永磁体装置 2位于第一位置、第二位置时(即车 辆轮胎 1气压正常和轮胎爆胎后) 自霍尔传感器 3的感应端到永磁体 22的距离, 显然 车辆轮胎气压正常时霍尔传感器 3的感应端与永磁体 22之间的距离 i 于轮胎爆胎后 霍尔传感器 3的感应端与永磁体 22之间的距离 r2In FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, r 2 respectively indicates that the permanent magnet device 2 is located at the first position and the second position (ie, the vehicle tire 1 is normal in pressure and after the tire is puncture) from the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 to the permanent magnet 22 The distance between the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 and the permanent magnet 22 when the vehicle tire pressure is normal is the distance r 2 between the sensing end of the Hall sensor 3 and the permanent magnet 22 after the tire puncture.

= k/r2 (k为常数) , 则 Vri>Vr2 ; 本发明中, 参照前述实施例, 可利用控制中心单元预 先设置一爆胎参数, 由于本实施例中, 在胎压正常时, 该永磁体与霍尔传感器的感应端 的距离最短, 因此, 可将控制中心单元的爆胎参数的范围值设置在 V — (Vr -Vr2) /3 和 Vr2之间 (但不限于此) , 凡是霍尔传感器 3所产生的脉冲电压信号值位于设定参数 范围内的情况, 控制中心单元即可判定轮胎处于爆胎状态, 否则为正常。 = k / r 2 (k is a constant), then V ri > Vr 2 ; In the present invention, with reference to the foregoing embodiment, a puncture parameter can be set in advance by the control center unit, since in the present embodiment, when the tire pressure is normal The distance between the permanent magnet and the sensing end of the Hall sensor is the shortest. Therefore, the range value of the puncture parameter of the control center unit can be set between V — (Vr −Vr 2 ) /3 and Vr 2 (but is not limited thereto). ), where the pulse voltage signal value generated by the Hall sensor 3 is within the set parameter range, the control center unit can determine that the tire is in a flat tire state, otherwise it is normal.
