DOUBLE-USE NOZZLE ADAPTER
20220297640 · 2022-09-22 ·

A double-use nozzle adapter includes a main body, a switch unit, and a needle unit. The switch unit includes a shifting member and a rigid retaining member. The rigid retaining member is arranged between the shifting member and the main body. The shifting member shifts the rigid retaining member between a first position and a second position. The needle unit is slidably installed in the main body and includes a needle. In the first position, the shifting member drives the rigid retaining member to press against the needle, thereby preventing the needle from moving with respect to the main body and making the needle connectable to a Schrader valve. In the second position, the rigid retaining member moves between the shifting member and the main body, so as to allow the needle to move with respect to the main body and make the needle connectable to a Presta valve.

Valve assembly for cushion inflation

The present disclosure generally relates to a manifold valve assembly engaged to an inflatable apparatus, such as a cushion to prevent pressure ulcers, for example. The manifold valve assembly is also in communication with a processing device to determine an optimal immersion level for a user seated on the inflatable apparatus. Additionally the processing device, in communication with the manifold valve assembly may save optimal immersion or air pressure levels for comparison to future checks of cushion pressure and send that to a user interface at the processing device. The assembly and processing device may also save and dis play a history of pressure checks.
