Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

The invention relates to a vehicle tire equipped with one or more measuring capacitors (sensors) that are embedded within the tire’s rubber material. These capacitors consist of conductive elastomer electrodes and an insulating elastomer dielectric. The configuration allows detection of forces in radial, tangential, and axial directions acting on the tire.

Patent Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fahrzeugreifen (2) mit einem Messkondensator (4), der in ein Gummimaterial (6) des Fahrzeugreifens (2) eingebettet ist, wobei der Messkondensator (4) eine erste Elektrode (8), eine zweite Elektrode (10) und ein Dielektrikum (12) aufweist, das sich von der ersten Elektrode (8) zu der zweiten Elektrode (10) erstreckt, wobei das Dielektrikum (12) aus elektrisch nichtleitfähigem Elastomermaterial gebildet ist, und wobei jede der Elektroden (8, 10) aus elektrisch leitfähigem Elastomermaterial gebildet ist. Als vorteilhaft hat es sich herausgestellt, mehrere Messkondensatoren (4) in den Fahrzeugreifen (2) einzubetten. Damit ist es möglich, Kräfte in Radial-, Tangential- und Axialrichtung zu erfassen.
