20120154242 | TIRE-STATE DETECTION DEVICE - A tire-state detection device including a sensor, an antenna having a predetermined frequency, a detection circuit, a case, and a planar conductor. The sensor detects a predetermined physical state of a tire. The detection circuit transmits information regarding a result of a detection made by the sensor from the antenna as radio waves. The case houses the sensor, the antenna and the detection circuit, and allows radio waves to pass. The case fits on a rim in the tire when the tire-state detection device is to be used. The planar conductor is electrically insulated from the antenna at a position set a predetermined distance away from the antenna so as to form an interface between the antenna and the rim when the case is fitted to the rim, and the planar conductor is set to a potential that is equivalent to a reference potential of the detection circuit. | 06-21-2012 |
20120154252 | ANTENNA - An antenna including first and second printed wiring boards and a plurality of linking conductors. The first and second printed wiring boards each has a respective plurality of rectilinear printed wiring patterns arranged in parallel at a specified interval, and respective through holes formed on both ends of each of the respective rectilinear printed wiring patterns. The plurality of linking conductors are configured so that both ends of the conductors are linked to the through holes that are formed in the first and second printed wiring boards so that the first printed wiring board and the second printed wiring board are disposed opposite each other, and so that the plurality of rectilinear printed wiring patterns formed on the first printed wiring board and the plurality of rectilinear printed wiring patterns formed on the second printed wiring board are conductively connected to each other in a helix. | 06-21-2012 |
20130076536 | PNEUMATIC FENDER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - A pneumatic fender management system that establishes a correspondence between a pneumatic fender in which an identification tag recording first identification information is embedded and a pressure sensor detecting a pneumatic pressure of the pneumatic fender and transmitting a detected value. The pressure sensor includes a sensor part detecting a pneumatic pressure of the pneumatic fender, a transmission part transmitting a signal from the senor part; a reader part reading the information in the identification tag, and a control part having a memory part recording second identification information. The control part compares the first identification information read by the reader part with the second identification information in the memory part, and if the compared information is identical, causes the transmission part to transmit the pneumatic pressure information detected by the sensor part, and if the compared information is different, stops the sensor part and/or the transmission part. | 03-28-2013 |
20130167999 | TIRE PROVIDED WITH INFORMATION ACQUISITION DEVICE - An information acquisition device is provided within a virtual plane including a coil axis of a coil-shaped antenna and having a perpendicular line orthogonal to an axis of rotation of a tire, such that the angle formed by the coil axis of the antenna relative to the tire rotational axis is within a range of 0° to 40°. The amount of attenuation of radio waves emitted from the antenna to the exterior of the tire is thereby reduced. | 07-04-2013 |
20130189938 | TRANSMISSION DEVICE - The transmission device is constituted by transmitting units which are accommodated within a case in a state so that, in an xyz orthogonal coordinate system, in the z axis direction only two transmitting units are disposed adjacently and so that planar conducting plates are opposed to each other; in the x axis direction, two adjacent transmitting units are disposed so that one end portion of one unit and the other end portion of the other unit are adjacent; and in the y axis direction, two adjacent transmitting units are disposed so that one end portion of one unit and the other end portion of the other unit are adjacent. | 07-25-2013 |
20130229275 | INFORMATION ACQUIRING DEVICE - Electronic components, conductors, and the like that the form a detecting-and-transceiving circuit are positioned in a space inside a casing other than a space E that is enclosed by an imaginary surface that forms a predetermined angle θ with respect to a coil axis x toward the outside from a position on the edge of an aperture surface of the end part of a coil-shaped antenna | 09-05-2013 |
20130231063 | TRANSMISSION DEVICE - Numeric values “a” representing a respective order of transmission by a plurality of transmitting units, and a numeric value N representing the total number of transmitting units, are set for each of the transmitting units. At startup, a transmitting unit for which the value “a” representing the order of transmission of the unit has been set to 1 sets a trigger value to N and transmits information about the value “a” of the unit and detection information from a sensor, and, when the value N is detected from a received signal, transmits the value “a” of the unit and detection information. When a value of a-1 is detected from a received signal, the transmitting unit for which the value “a” representing the order of transmission of the unit has been set to other than 1 transmits the information of the value “a” of the unit and detection information. | 09-05-2013 |
20150122005 | State Condition Detection Device - A first printed wiring substrate on which a detection and transceiver circuit, which detects and transmits a predetermined physical quantity of a tire, and printed wiring for an antenna are formed and a second printed wiring substrate on which printed wiring for the antenna is formed are disposed so as to oppose each other, and a planar conductor plate is provided by being fixed, so as to be positioned between an antenna and a metal face to which mounting takes place, on the second printed wiring substrate of a device main body in which the antenna is formed by conductively connecting the printed wirings for the antenna in a coil shape by a columnar connection conductor. | 05-07-2015 |
