Device and method for fixing a sensor to a tire

A method for fixing a sensor to a tire by means of a device which comprises at least one base provided with a seat adapted to at least partially house a first portion of at least one sensor for tires, and at least one cover adapted to house at least partially a second portion of the sensor, wherein the cover comprises at least one seat adapted to house at least partially the base, wherein the base comprises at least one first portion which is arranged adjacent to the seat of the base and at least one second portion which at least partially surrounds the seat of the base, wherein the cover comprises at least one first portion which is adapted to at least partially surround the seat of the cover and at least one second portion which is adapted to at least partially surround the second portion of the sensor, wherein the first portion of the base comprises at least one support surface on one side of the base opposite the second portion of the base, wherein the first portion of the cover comprises at least one support surface on a side of the cover opposite the second portion of the cover, wherein the support surface of the cover is adapted to be joined to an internal surface of a tire, wherein the first portion of the base comprises at least one protuberance that at least partially surrounds the first portion of the base, and in that the method comprises the following operating steps:

• inserting the sensor between the base and the cover;
• applying the assembly of base, sensor and cover to a surface of a tire by means of at least one layer of adhesive disposed on the support surface of the base and on the support surface of the cover.
