Abstract

A tire pressure control system includes a tire valve and wheel electronics including a pressure measuring device and a transmission device in a housing, wherein the housing has two base elements on a bottom for attaching the same to a rim well of a wheel, and a contact surface seated on a valve spud of the tire valve in the mounted state. The surface has an elongated hole through which the tire valve projects in the mounted state. The invention provides that the contact surface can be linearly displaced in the direction of the elongated hole on the valve spud during installation.
