Abstract:
1. An aircraft tire pressure loop link for electromagnetically coupling a magnetic field between a wheel axle and a tire pressure sensor spaced apart from the wheel axle, the aircraft tire pressure loop link comprising: a first single metal loop configured to be mounted adjacent to the wheel axle, said first single metal loop including a magnetic flux collector insert member electrically connected and attached to said first single metal loop, said magnetic flux collector insert member being configured to collect an impinging magnetic flux from the wheel axle to induce an electrical current in said first single metal loop; and a second single metal loop connected to said first single metal loop, said second single metal loop being configured to be mounted adjacent to the tire pressure sensor such that the electrical current induced in said first single metal loop travels to said second single metal loop, to generate flux for powering the tire pressure sensor.
