- 33 - A wheel and brake monitoring system for a truck. The system is capable of detecting looseness of any wheel assembly or excessive brake travel. Looseness of a wheel assembly is detected by sensing lateral movement of the assembly or rotational movement between two wheels of that assembly. Looseness of a wheel assembly can alternatively be detected by sensing the change in position of the edge of a wheel rim, in relation to a fixed point on the supporting axle assembly. Brake travel is monitored by sensing excessive rotational travel of the slack adjuster associated with each axle. Excessive brake wear for an automobile can also be detected through the use of an embedded sensor wire within the brake pads or shoes.

Système de surveillance des roues et des freins de camion. Le système peut détecter le desserrage d'une roue ou le jeu excessif des freins. Le desserrage d'une roue est détecté en mesurant le déplacement latéral de la roue ou le mouvement de rotation entre deux roues de cet ensemble. Le desserrage d'une roue peut également être détecté en mesurant le changement de position du bord de la jante de la roue, par rapport à un point fixe sur l'essieu porteur. Le jeu des freins est surveillé en mesurant le mouvement de rotation excessif du rattrappeur de jeu de chaque essieu. L'usure exagérée des freins d'une automobile peut également être détectée grâce à l'utilisation d'un fil capteur noyé dans les plaquettes ou segments de frein.
