20080276995 | Monitoring device attachment to rubber valve stems - Tire sensor packaging capable of being installed on a standard snap-in tire valve stem is provided. The sensor package includes an attachment member capable of being disposed in the flexible bore of a snap-in tire valve stem, and of securely engaging with the inner wall of the flexible bore. The attachment member can be an integral part of the sensor package, or it can be a separate part that acts as an expansion device (e.g., an expansion nut) when engaged with the sensor package. Preferably, the attachment member includes features, such as barbs, to provide more secure engagement with the tire valve stem. Packages according to embodiments of the invention include a package passage (e.g., a channel or a bore) to permit the flow of air past the sensor, so that the tire can be inflated or deflated. Sensors can be attached to the tire valve stem before or after the tire valve stem is installed in the wheel. | 11-13-2008 |
20080302425 | Formed Flange For Pressure Monitoring Valve Stem Mount - A valve stem for mounting and supporting a tire pressure monitoring assembly includes a flange formed after insertion into the wheel rim for preventing movement caused by forces generated during wheel rotation. | 12-11-2008 |
20110100480 | Mobile tire inflator - A mobile tire inflator includes a control panel, multiple air passages, an inflation valve, a discharge valve and a pressure sensor. The user can control the operation of the inflation valve and the discharge valve automatically or manually by means of the control panel, switch between the automatic mode and the manual mode during operation. Matching with the operation of the pressure sensor, the mobile tire inflator achieves accurate tire pressure inflation and discharge and has the advantages of operation flexibility and high mobility. | 05-05-2011 |
20120279582 | TIRE AIR VALVE WITH PRESSURE INDICATOR - A tire air valve having the function of indicating tire pressure includes an air valve casing having an inner center post orderly installed thereon with a lower locking block, a first spring, an upper locking block and a second spring. A fixed member is secured on the upper locking block, and a cap is covered on the air valve casing and provided with an upper indicating member, a third spring, a lower indicating member and a locking ring. The upper indicating member has an outer wall formed into a low pressure region and a warning region, while the lower indicating member has an outer wall formed into a safety region. The upper and the lower locking block can completely seal up the air valve to prevent air from leaking, and a driver can judge whether tire pressure is normal by visual observation through the cap on the air valve casing. | 11-08-2012 |
20120312389 | ELECTRONIC UNIT FOR MEASURING THE OPERATION PARAMETERS OF A VEHICLE WHEEL INCLUDING AN ELECTRONIC HOUSING AND AN INFLATION VALVE - An electronic unit includes an inflation valve ( | 12-13-2012 |
20130299007 | DEVICE FOR MONITORING THE STATE OF RADIAL DEFORMATION OF A TYRE - Described is a device ( | 11-14-2013 |
20140283923 | ELECTRONIC UNIT FOR MEASURING OPERATING PARAMETERS OF A VEHICLE WHEEL, COMPRISING AN ELECTRONIC MODULE AND AN INFLATION VALVE - The electronic unit includes an inflation valve adapted to be secured to a wheel rim and including an abutment head against the rim, extending in the continuation of which are a rigid tube, an electronic module mounted in a slidable manner along the tube, and elements for the relative locking in translation of the module along the tube, defining at least two positions of relative locking, each adapted to correspond to a preselected thickness of the rim intended to be equipped with the unit. The module and abutment head include two complementary front faces adapted in order to come into correspondence at a predetermined minimum distance from each other that is identical for all the preselected widths of rims intended to be equipped with the unit. Optical tracking devices are provided to permit verification of whether the distance separating the two complementary front faces corresponds to the predetermined minimum distance. | 09-25-2014 |
20150136244 | WHEEL MODULE COMPRISING AN ELASTICALLY DEFORMABLE INFLATION VALVE FOR A TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM - A wheel module for a tire pressure monitoring system includes an inflation valve of the “snap-in” type and an electronic casing fixed thereto in a reversible manner. This valve is produced from a resiliently deformable material and includes a valve body and a metal conduit extending therethrough for introducing inflation air. The valve body has a first end provided with a thread for receiving a closure cap and a second end with a hollow metal fixing rod provided with notches fixed thereto. The electronic casing is slidingly mounted on the fixing rod and includes an element for blocking the position of the casing relative to the valve in a reversible manner. The blocking element includes a substantially U-shaped metal wire, a first end and a second end of which are inserted below retention lugs produced on the same face of the casing. This metal wire is insertable into the notches. | 05-21-2015 |
20150343861 | METAL VALVE OF THE CLAMP-IN TYPE FOR INFLATING TYRES ASSOCIABLE WITH A TPMS TRANSDUCER - Valves for inflating tyres of tyred wheels, in particular tyres for vehicles, wherein the term “vehicles” refers to motor vehicles, vans, trucks, motorcycles or in general elements of locomotion on tyres. More in detail, a metal valve ( | 12-03-2015 |

20090025797 | Ergonomic pneumatic calibration power - The pump described below is used for pneumatic pressure calibration, to generate a test pressure. This design incorporates features which provide for leak free operation. The vent valve uses a Schrader type valve operated by a vent knob. This vent knob is contained within and concentric with a pressure adjusting knob called a vernier knob. We claim this configuration. | 01-29-2009 |
20150101678 | RELIEF-VALVE DEVICE FOR AN AIR PRESSURE GAUGE - A relief-valve device for an air pressure gauge has a casing, a relief-valve assembly, a valve shaft, and a push button. The casing has a connecting member, a pressure detecting member and a discharging member. The relief-valve assembly is mounted in the discharging member and has a valve seat, a first seal ring, a second seal ring and a mounting cover. The valve shaft is mounted axially slidably in the relief-valve assembly and has a shaft member and a valve head. The shaft member has a discharging notch selectively aligning with the second seal ring to allow high pressure air in an inflatable product connecting to the air pressure gauge to be discharged slowly and finely out of the relief-valve device. | 04-16-2015 |
20160144676 | AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC AIR PUMP - An electronic air pump pressurizes object in either manual or automatic mode. In automatic mode, the electronic air pump determines air pressure needed to adjust an object to a set target pressure. The electronic air pump inflates or deflates the ball automatically until the air pressure inside the ball matches the preset value. In manual mode regulation of the air pressure is adjusted by a user. | 05-26-2016 |
