There is described an arrangement on vehicles equipped with wheels (1)
with pneumatic tires, having an evaluation and control unit (8) arranged
in the vehicle (2) and one or more receiving antennas (4), that are
assigned to individual wheels (1) or groups of wheels (1) of the
vehicle (2) and are connected to the evaluation and control unit (8)
via an RF receiver (5) comprising a demodulator (6), for use in a
tire-pressure monitoring system in which a unit (3), that is mounted on
the respective wheel (1) and that comprises a pressure sensor for measuring
the pressure in the pneumatic tire and for generating an electric pressure-measurement
signal, comprises a control circuit and a transmitter with a sending antenna for
sending out, under the control of the control circuit, the pressure-measuring signal
or a signal derived therefrom in the form of a radio-frequency signal.
The invention provides that each receiving antenna (4) has assigned to
it a separate RF receiver (5) in combination with a demodulator (6),
a circuit arrangement (7) for the generation of a digital electric identification
signal characteristic of the mounting location of the respective receiving antenna
(4), and a BUS interface (19), that the evaluation and control unit
(8) comprises a BUS interface (18), that the two BUS interfaces (18,
19) are connected one to the other by a BUS (17), for which purpose
a plug-in connector (21) is provided which is connected to the BUS (17)
by a first connector element (22) and to the BUS interface (19) of
the RF receiver (5) by a second connector element (23), and that
the first connector element (22) of the plug-in connector is designed so
as to provide an identifier in electric/mechanical form and to supply it to the
circuit arrangement (7) provided on the side of the RF receiver (5),
through its connection to the second connector element (23), for generation
of the digital electric identification signal characteristic of the identifier
of the first connector element (22).
