Development of Car Stability Control Mechanism for Tyre Blowout
Indian Patent (IN 475811) — a novel car attachment that automatically stabilizes the steering mechanism during tyre blowout, preventing loss of control and collisions using sensor-actuated pneumatic clamping on the Ackermann steering rod.
About This Project
Granted Indian Patent IN 475811, this invention addresses one of the most dangerous driving scenarios — sudden tyre blowouts at high speed. The mechanism uses ultrasonic sensors mounted on the Ackermann steering rod to continuously monitor tyre distance. When a blowout is detected (threshold distance exceeded), an Arduino microcontroller triggers a pneumatic assembly via a relay-controlled solenoid valve. A precision-fabricated C-clamp plunger encapsulates and locks the Ackermann steering rod within 1 second, stabilizing the steering and preventing the vehicle from veering into adjacent lanes. The attachment bolts onto existing Ackermann steering geometry without major vehicle modifications. A working prototype was fabricated with tubular steel frames, custom pneumatic fixtures, and a complete electronic control unit. Filed on 12 April 2021 through SSN College of Engineering (Anna University) and granted on 30 November 2023 with a 20-year term.
