MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541113838 A) filed by Jananl M; Aksha Y. K; Arjun. A; Harissh. A. B; Tanisshq. M; and Dr. G. Sundar, Assistant Professor, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, on Nov. 19, 2025, for 'smart tyre inflation with pressure adaptive nitrogen control.'
Inventor(s) include Jananl M; Aksha Y. K; Arjun. A; Harissh. A. B; Tanisshq. M; and Dr. G. Sundar.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This project introduces an Automatic Tyre Inflation System for electric vehicles to improve safety, efficiency, and convenience. Since tyre pressure directly affects vehicle stability, mileage, and tyre life, the system ensures continuous pressure maintenance without manual checks. A pressure sensor constantly monitors the tyre, and when the pressure drops below the preset value (28 PSI), it automatically refills the tyre even while the wheel is in motion. An ESP32 microcontroller processes the pressure data and activates a relay-controlled solenoid valve connected to a nitrogen tank. The normally closed valve opens only when inflation is required and closes once the desired pressure is reached, preventing over-inflation. This smart, real-time system ensures proper tyre pressure at all times, enhances riding comfort, improves tyre lifespan, reduces energy loss, and offers a modern, hands-free alternative to manual tyre inflation-making it ideal for electric vehicles."
