Abstract
199,632. Richardson, O. E., and Lundeen, H. E. Aug. 3, 1922. Tell-tale apparatus.-A pressure gauge mounted on the valve stem of each tyre of a motor vehicle has a hand moving over a rheostat in circuit with an ammeter mounted on the dashboard of the vehicle, the ammeter being graduated in pressure units. The casing 11 of the gauge is secured to the valve stem 8. The Bourdon tube 12 moves an arm 16 through quadrant and pinion gear, the arm working over a coil 18 wound on a non-conducting bar 19. The arm 16 is connected to an insulated drum 28 by leads 25, 27, while one end of the coil is connected by a lead 22 to a hub bolt and thus earthed. A brush 32 engages the drum 28 and through a lead 31 is connected to one terminal of an ammeter 30, the other terminal of which is connected through a resistance 36 and switch 37 to one pole of a battery 39, the other pole of which is earthed to the vehicle frame. As the pressure in the tyre varies, the brush 24 in the arm 16 moves over the coil 18, varying the amount of resistance in the ammeter circuit and thus the reading of the ammeter, which is graduated in pressure units.
