Invented by Coda Development, a Czech Republic company, this new concept of Self Inflating Tire (SIT) offers a major advance in solving tire pressure concerns. The SIT System is based on proven, highly reliable peristaltic pump principles. It integrates a tube chamber into the tire wall. As the tire turns against the road this chamber acts as a peristaltic pump, forcing more air into the tire until it reaches its desired pressure. Then a managing valve automatically stops further inflation. This simple solution ensures that all tires operate at optimal pressure at all times. Coda plans to display its system at the 2008 SAE World Congress in Detroit on April 14th through the 17th, so we’ll see if it makes a splash there with auto industry engineers. [SIT]
