A pressure gauge includes an introduction member, a connection member, a bourdon tube, a pointer, a dial plate, a detector, and an information communication unit. A battery installed in the information communication unit is disposed between a circuit board and a lid. The information communication unit is inserted in a through hole of the dial plate to be disposed astride between a front surface and a rear surface of the dial plate and the lid is disposed on a side of the information communication unit close to the front surface of the dial plate.

A system for monitoring pressure within a volume defined by a wall has a housing and a manometer coupled to the housing having fluid therein. The manometer is coupled to the volume and has a fluid level corresponding to a pressure within the volume. A pressure sensor is coupled to the housing and is coupled to volume. The pressure sensor generates a pressure signal corresponding to the pressure within the volume. A controller is coupled to the pressure sensor and is programmed to compare the pressure signal to a threshold and programmed to generate an indicator based on comparing.

A communication device, method and computer program product enable reduced polling of a barometric sensor, which reduces power consumption and sensor calibration drift. A controller of a communication device determines at least one of received signal strength and direction of respective broadcast signals from local network node(s) positioned within a building to provide a local coverage area. The controller determines a location of the communication device in relation to the local network nodes in response to determining the received signal strength and/or the direction of the respective broadcast signals. The controller determines current altitude data related to a current barometer reading of the barometric sensor. The controller compares the current and the historical altitude data associated with past reading(s) at the location. In response to determining that a difference between the historical and the current altitude data is greater than a threshold distance, the controller calibrates the barometric sensor.

A depth selector or current depth provider for use by a variable speed air system. As a depth selector it is preferably in the form of a rotary switch on the user interface for the air system. The rotary switch can have 3 positions for maximum depth selections, such as, without limitation 15, 25, and 65 feet. Other depth values and number of depth selections provided can be used and all are considered within the scope of the disclosure. A microcontroller of the system reads the voltage from the voltage divider created by the rotary switch selection to determine which position the rotary switch is in. The microcontroller uses this information to set the upper and lower pressure limits for the dive.

Systems and methods are provided for providing a tire pressure enhancing device for increasing the air pressure of tires mounted on a vehicle. For example, an air compressor may be coupled to an engine of a vehicle to compress air. The compressed air is then stored in the frame of the vehicle. The compressed air may be transferred to each tire through a hose via an access point in the frame.

Provided is a tire pressure monitoring system learning method, device, sensor, system and medium. The tire pressure monitoring system learning method comprises following steps: receiving low-frequency data sent by a low-frequency trigger equipment; determining a command type corresponding to the low-frequency data; acquiring a preset tire pressure data in the low-frequency data if the command type is a sending command of custom high-frequency data, wherein the preset tire pressure data is used for simulating data sent by the tire pressure sensor to a vehicle-mounted ECU in a preset learning scene; generating high-frequency data based on a pre-stored high-frequency configuration parameter and the preset tire pressure data, and sending the high-frequency data to the vehicle-mounted ECU. The technical solution of the application enables the tire pressure sensor to send high-frequency data which can be identified by different vehicle-mounted ECUs, thus improving the adaptability of the tire pressure sensor.
