US 8,798,850 B2 · Method and measurement system for localizing at least one wheel on a motor vehicle

Abstract

A method and a measurement system are specified for localizing at least one wheel on a motor vehicle. In this case the operating situation of the motor vehicle and the wheel load of the at least one wheel and/or a variable dependent on this is determined. Then the at least one measured value of the wheel load is compared with a value assigned to the operating situation. As an alternative or in addition, the comparison of at least one parameter dependent on at least two measured values can be undertaken with at least one of the parameters assigned to this operating situation. Finally the point on the motor vehicle at which the wheel is mounted is determined on the basis of the comparison results.

Dependent claims

A method for localizing at least one wheel on a motor vehicle, which comprises the steps of:

a) determining an operating situation of the motor vehicle;
b) detecting at least one quantity selected from the group consisting of a wheel load of the at least one wheel and a variable dependent on the wheel load;
c) obtaining a comparison result by performing at least one step selected from the group consisting of:
comparing at least one detected measured value of the wheel load with at least one value assigned to the operating situation;
and
comparing at least one parameter dependent on at least two measured values of the wheel load with at least one further parameter assigned to the operating situation;
and
d) determining a point on the motor vehicle at which the wheel is mounted based on the comparison result.
