20260036603 · 2026-02-05 · ·

A speed scaler adjusts the electronic signals received from the electronic speed sensor on a vehicle to reflect the actual speed of operation of a vehicle after replacement tires are installed on the vehicle. The dimensional parameters of the original tires and the replacement tires for the vehicle are stored in the memory of the speed scaler system and compared to create a ratio for adjustment. The speed scaler is operatively positioned between the electronic speed sensor which creates an electronic pulse corresponding to the rotational speed of each wheel. The speed scaler intercepts these electronic pulses and adjusts the timing of the pulses in accordance with the ratio of the original tire circumference and the replacement tire circumference, and then transmits the adjusted electronic pulse to the Anti-Lock Brake System for re-transmission to the components of the vehicle requiring accurate vehicle speed indications.
