A pneumatic valve for attachment to a source of high pressure gas comprises a valve body which comprises a gas inlet and a gas outlet. A rupturable membrane extends across the gas inlet. A membrane support element is slidably supported in the valve body for movement between an extended position and a retracted position, the membrane support element having a lower end engageable, in the extended position, with the rupturable membrane to support the rupturable membrane against rupture. The valve body further comprises a bore through which the membrane support element extends and one or more gas supply passages bypassing the bore for providing a gas flow path from the gas inlet to the gas outlet. The membrane support element is configured to be movable from the extended position to the retracted position to permit the rupturable membrane to rupture under the pressure of the high pressure gas.

A tire valve assembly includes a valve shaft movably inserted into a first diameter section of the outer tube. The valve shaft includes a passage and a radial hole which communicates with the passage. A first seal is mounted to the end of the valve shaft that is inserted into the outer tube and is movable relative to a shoulder in the outer tube. A guide tube is mounted to the valve shaft and has a guide portion protruding therefrom which is guided in guide groove in the outer tube. An adjustment tube is threadedly mounted to the first outer threads on the valve shaft. When rotating the adjustment tube, the valve shaft is axially movable in the outer tube to control the gap between the first seal and the shoulder in the outer tube. The gap is changeable and communicates with the radial hole and the passage.

A tire inflation valve having anti-rotation features has an external valve seat, and includes a valve body, a valve stem extending through the length of the valve body, and anti-rotation features disposed interior to the valve body. The valve stem is configured to move relative to the valve body, such that a resilient seating surface disposed at a proximal end of the valve stem is displaced relative to a valve seat formed by an exterior surface of a proximal end of the valve body. The anti-rotation features may include a complementary slot and protrusion, a keyway and complementary protruding ridge, and/or complementary channels and lateral protrusions.

An air deflector that is at least partially disposable within a tubeless tire of a bicycle wheel includes a body. The body includes at least one wall defining an air input end and an air output end of the body. The body is attachable to a valve of the tubeless tire at the air input end, such that when air is introduced into the body via the valve, at least some of the air is deflectable by one or more walls of the at least one wall out of the body at the air output end.

An air chuck includes a body and a valve core interface. The body includes output, interface, and input ports. The body defines a first passageway that extends between the output and interface ports. The input port defines a second passageway that is in fluid communication with the first passageway. The valve core interface is slidably coupled with the body and is slidable between extended and retracted positions. The valve core interface includes a shaft and a knob. The shaft includes proximal and distal ends. The distal end is at least partially disposed in the first passageway. The knob is coupled with the proximal end of the shaft. The shaft is rotatably coupled with the body and is selectively rotatable in either tightening or loosening directions via the knob. The distal end of the shaft comprises a grasping feature that is configured to grasp a valve core of a valve stem.

An inflation valve for a tubeless tire may include a valve body defining a cavity having a proximal opening and a distal opening. A valve stem extends through the cavity and includes a plug at a proximal end of the valve stem. The proximal opening of the cavity is defined by a beveled surface, and an outer diameter of the beveled surface is larger than an inner diameter of the valve body. The valve is transitionable between: a) a closed position, where a resilient surface of the plug engages the beveled surface to seal the cavity, and b) an open position, where the resilient surface of the plug is spaced from the beveled surface to unseal the cavity.

A valve stem sytem includes a valve stem that is fluidly coupled to a tire thereby facilitating the valve stem to selectively inflate and deflate the tire. A sensing unit is coupled to the valve stem and the sensing unit is visible on the valve stem. The sensing unit is in fluid communication with the valve stem to sense air pressure within the tire thereby facilitating the sensing unit to display the air pressure within the tire. A valve stem assembly includes a pressure sensing body and a valve core configured to threadedly engage the tire stem and regulate air flow from a tire. The pressure sensing body includes plunger that responds to pressure fluctuations in the tire and provides a continuous measurement of air pressure.

A fluid flow regulator comprises a body, an actuatable switch, and valve structure. The valve structure is disposed within the body and has at least a portion movable between an actuating position and a non-actuating position. The actuating position actuates the switch. The non-actuating position does not actuate the switch.

A wheel valve assembly having a body portion coupled with a cover portion. A diaphragm disposed between the body portion and the cover portion. A first biasing member disposed between the cover portion and the diaphragm in a cover cavity defined thereby. A control cavity defined by the body portion and the diaphragm, and at least one control port defined by the body portion and in fluid communication with the control cavity. A tire port defined by the body portion and in selective fluid communication with the control cavity. A first and second conduit disposed in the body portion in fluid communication with a third and fourth conduit disposed in the cover portion. An equalization valve assembly disposed in one of the conduits to control fluid communication between the cover cavity and the control cavity.

A valve core capable of suppressing manufacturing costs, including: a first core cylinder body, a second core cylinder body having a valve opening on an opposite side to the first, a movable member having a valve body which opens and closes the valve opening at the front end of a shaft section linearly movably extending through the insides of the core cylinder bodies, an elastic member in contact with the movable member and the first body and biasing to sandwich the second body between the first and valve body, and a pair of fitting sections including a first and a second fitting section on the core cylinder bodies and which are rotatably fitted and are separable from each other without interfering. The fitting sections have cylindrical shapes that are detachably fitted to each other, and the first section has a stepped surface with which the second section is in contact.
