Autonomous Tire Inflation System

Abstract

Since the discovery of tires, amelioration is being done in tires of a vehicle on a regular basis for its improved life and its role in increasing vehicular safety. As we all know that vehicle is the most important part of our life, because it helps us in traveling miles in a few minutes. The air pressure of the tires needs to be maintained at ideal level for better running of vehicle and for its safety purposes. So, this system was introduced keeping in mind the fuel consumption, vehicular safety and comfort. It maintains the required tire pressure of vehicle, increases fuel efficiency and reduces tire wear thus increasing their life and reducing the tire replacement time and cost. Significant aim of introducing this system is to maintain ideal pressure in tires and when the pressure of tire goes below ideal vale pressure gauge monitors it and the tire is inflated again. This paper provides a better understanding for researchers and new learners on the working, advantages and limitations of the “Autonomous tire inflation system” used in tires of a vehicle. Project is concerned about and to develop an “automatic tire pressure inflation system”. As we are aware that by drop of few pressure units in vehicle its results in the reduction in mileage, tire life, safety and performance. This system can be placed in every in automobile under any operating condition, this will not only maintain the correct tire pressure but also increase tire life, mileage and safety so we have fabricated this system to inflate and deflate the tire automatically by using control units. This system is named automatic because it checks the tire pressure continuously using built control device and accordingly gives alert signals to the driver about the tire condition.
