Tire Temperature Forecasting Using Sensor Trends and Remote Prediction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing tire monitoring systems can only generate alerts for high tire temperatures after the temperature has been reached, failing to provide a proactive response and potentially reducing tire life and performance.
Innovation Solution
A tire high temperature forecasting system that uses sensors to measure and predict future tire temperatures, employing a forecasting model to generate alerts if a predicted temperature is likely to exceed a threshold, allowing for proactive measures to be taken.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If real-time temperature measurement is used, then current tire temperature can be monitored, but alert is generated only after high temperature is reached
Solution Approach 1:
The forecasting model performs preliminary analysis of temperature trends to predict future high temperature conditions before they actually occur. By analyzing historical and current temperature data, the system proactively generates alerts in advance, enabling preventive actions to be taken before the tire reaches dangerous temperature levels.
2Reliability
If real-time temperature monitoring is implemented, then tire condition can be assessed, but proactive prevention is not enabled
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the forecasting model continuously analyzes temperature data trends and provides predictive feedback about future temperature conditions. This feedback loop enables the system to anticipate high temperature events and trigger preventive alerts, transforming reactive monitoring into proactive prevention and allowing fleet managers to take corrective actions before tire damage occurs.

AI summary
A tire high temperature forecasting system and method is disclosed. The system (10) comprises: at least one tire (12) supporting a vehicle (14); at least one sensor (30) mounted on the tire (12) for measuring a temperature (58) of the at least one tire (12); an electronic memory capacity in a unit (34) mounted on the at least one tire (12) for storing tire identification information; a processor (38) in electronic communication with the at least one sensor (30) and the electronic memory capacity, wherein the processor (38) is configured to receive and correlate the measured temperature (58), a time of the temperature measurement, and the tire identification information; and transmission means (40) for transmitting the measured temperature, a time of the temperature measurement, and the tire identification information to a remote processor (48). The remote processor (48) is configured for executing a forecasting model (70), the forecasting model (70) generating a forecast estimate (104) and an alert (112) if the forecast estimate (104) includes a predicted high temperature (108) that is greater than a predetermined high temperature threshold (62) for the at least one tire (12).
