INFLATION ADAPTER
An inflation adapter is used for connecting with an inflator unit and assembled to a tire valve, and the inflation adapter has a nozzle body and a sleeve sleeved on the nozzle body. The nozzle body has a ventilation channel, a sealing washer, and at least one locking part. The ventilation channel is formed axially through the nozzle body. The sealing washer is mounted in the bottom end of the ventilation channel. The at least one locking part is radially movable on the nozzle body. A user pushes the sleeve to abut against the at least one locking part to assemble the inflation adapter with the tire valve. The quickly assembling/dissembling inflation adapter saves the operation time and improves the operation convenience for driving safety.

Air Transfer Assembly
An air transfer assembly for filling a flat tire includes a hose. A first air chuck and a second air chuck are coupled to a first end and a second end of the hose, respectively. The first air chuck and the second air chuck are configured to be coupled to valve stems of a donor tire and a recipient tire, respectively, so that the donor tire is in fluidic communication with the recipient tire. A controller that is operationally coupled to the hose is configured to regulate a flow of air though the hose to attain a target air pressure in the recipient tire.
INFLATOR WITH DYNAMIC PRESSURE COMPENSATION
An inflator includes an inflator housing, a pressure sensor operable to generate a pressure signal related to an outlet pressure of the inflator, a motor within the inflator housing, a battery pack removably coupleable to the inflator housing, and a controller electrically coupled to the motor and the battery pack. The controller is configured to receive the pressure signal from the pressure sensor, determine a rate of pressurization change based on the pressure signal, determine a static pressure value based on the rate of pressurization change, and determine a motor time delay based on a target pressure value, the static pressure value, and the rate of pressurization change. The controller is also configured to generate a control signal when the motor time delay substantially equals zero. The control signal is operable to cause power to the motor to be turned off to stop a pressurization condition of the inflator.

Combination structure for a hose connected between an air compressor and a tire
A combination structure for a hose connected between a tire and an air compressor is disclosed. The air compressor includes a box in which a compressor unit and a sealant bottle are installed. The sealant bottle has an inlet and an outlet. The inlet of the sealant bottle is connected to one outlet tube of the compressor unit. The hose has a first end and a second end. The first end of the hose is adapted to be connected to the outlet tube of the sealant bottle. The second end of the hose can be connected to the combination structure, which generally includes a cap, a core element, and a plug. With the combination structure, the chemical sealant contained in the sealant bottle can be prevented from flowing out to contaminate objects due to incorrect operation or negligence.

AIR COMPRESSOR CAPABLE OF INFLATING AIR AND SUPPLYING SEALANT
An air compressor contains: a box in which the air compressor and a sealant supply device are accommodated. The air compressor is configured to produce high-pressure airs, and the sealant supply device has an air inlet pipe and a supply pipe. An air outlet pipe of the air compressor is connected with the air inlet pipe, and the air compressor is detachable from the sealant supply device. The air inlet pipe is configured to receive the high-pressure airs from the air compressor, the supply pipe is configured to output chemical sealant from the sealant supply device, and a tube is configured to communicate the air inlet pipe with the supply pipe. A rotation element includes a driven portion and a central stem. The rotation element is fitted on the second sub-tube. The central stem of the rotation element abuts against a top of the tube.
FLUID ACTUATION SYSTEM
A fluid actuation system controls fluid flow between a container and the external environment. The fluid actuation system has an actuator housing which houses a cradle member secured to the actuator housing. An actuator member is slidably received within the cradle member with the actuator member having an actuator member flow conduit for communication fluid flow from the container to and external environment. A toggle latch member is moveable to a first position for continuous fluidic transfer, to a second position for manual control of the fluidic flow, or a third position when fluidic flow is blocked.
