A method can include, by operation of a vehicle system, receiving tire profile data for each of a plurality of tires of the vehicle, calculating a target pressure for at least one tire using at least the tire profile data, establishing a wireless connection with a device separate from the vehicle system, and wirelessly transmitting the target pressure to the other device. Corresponding devices and systems are also disclosed.

A kit for inflating and repairing inflatable articles, in particular tires, the kit having a compressor assembly, a container of sealing liquid and connectors for connecting the container to the compressor assembly and to an inflatable article for repair or inflation; the compressor assembly being housed in an outer casing defining a seat for the container of sealing liquid. The container is housed removably in the seat and functionally connected to the compressor assembly so as to form a compact unit ready for use.

A flat tire repair liquid container is provided with: a closing stopper, which is formed from a non-elastomer material and is capable of sliding inside a flow channel; and a sealing member, which is formed from an elastomer material, is disposed in a ring shape conforming to an inner wall surface of a flow channel, closes a gap between the closing stopper and the flow channel, and holds the closing stopper at a predetermined position. During storage, the closing stopper is engaged with the sealing member to close the flow channel. During flat tire repair work, the closing stopper is pushed out from the sealing member by pressure inside the container and moved toward the outer side of the container in the flow channel to open the flow channel.

An inflation machine configured to inflate an item. The inflation machine includes: (i) an air pump; (ii) a first air dispenser having a first hose and a first air chuck, where the first air dispenser is an analog dispenser and is in communication with the air pump; (iii) a second air dispenser having a second hose and a second air chuck, where the second air dispenser is a digital dispenser and is in communication with the air pump; and (iv) a controller configured to activate the first air dispenser or the second air dispenser in response to a user input.

The present disclosure provides tire repair assemblies, methods for repairing tires, standalone currency operated tire repair assemblies, tire sealant vending assemblies configured to provide tire sealant via the valve stem of a tire, tire valve coupling assemblies that are configured to provide gas and/or sealant to a tire, tire valve coupling assemblies, and/or methods for providing one or both of gas and/or tire sealant to a tire are provided.

A vehicle-mounted air compressor includes an air compressor main body and a bottle cap assembly including bottle cap and sealing and flow guiding components. The bottle cap component is at the air compressor main body, has air inlet/outlet openings, and connected to the air compressor main body via the air inlet opening. The sealing and flow guiding component is at the bottle cap component and includes sealing and flow guiding portions, the former surrounding the latter, and the latter covering the air inlet opening and having at least one air inlet hole and an air outlet hole and connected to the air inlet opening via the air inlet hole and connected to the air outlet opening via the air outlet hole. An airflow from the air compressor main body passes through the air inlet opening, the air inlet hole, the air outlet hole, and the air outlet opening in sequence.

A vehicle-mounted air compressor includes an air compressor main body and a bottle cap assembly. The bottle cap assembly includes a bottle cap component and at least one fastening component. The bottle cap component is installed on the air compressor main body and has an air inlet end and an air outlet end connected to each other, and the bottle cap component is inserted to the air compressor main body through the air inlet end along an inserting direction. An air flow from the air compressor main body is adapted to pass through the air inlet end and the air outlet end in sequence. The fastening component fastens the bottle cap component to the air compressor main body along a fastening direction. The fastening direction is the same as the inserting direction.
