Device for the allocation of the positions of the tyres of a vehicle

The steering system ensures that each wheel (2,4,6,8) has a sensor (3,5,7,9) determining the rotational velocity and turning direction of the wheel. When a vehicle is turning to the left or right, the position of the wheel, forward left, forward right, etc. on the vehicle can be determined using the measured values which are analyzed by a analysis unit (10). An Independent claim is made for an arrangement wherein a steering sensor (11) is used for determining the vehicle turning direction. The invention makes use of the fact that when a vehicle is turning the wheels at the front rotate faster than the rear wheels and the wheel on the outside of the turn rotates faster than the wheel on the inside.
