Systems and methods are provided for providing a tire pressure enhancing device for increasing the air pressure of tires mounted on a vehicle. For example, an air compressor may be coupled to an engine of a vehicle to compress air. The compressed air is then stored in the frame of the vehicle. The compressed air may be transferred to each tire through a hose via an access point in the frame.

An air pipe device of an air compressor contains a connector of an air pipe configured to output fluid pressure so as to inflate airs and to feed sealant when the air compressor operates. The air pipe device contains a connection pipe, and the connection pipe includes an open segment defined on a first end thereof and configured to connect with the connector of the air pipe of the air compressor. In addition, the connection pipe includes a stop segment formed on a second end thereof, such that the connection pipe is configured to connect a twin tire with the connector of the air compressor so as to inflate airs and feed sealant.

The invention relates to a device for coupling a tire pump to a valve of a tire and for providing a fluid flow path from said pump to said valve, comprising a pump nipple for covering said valve. The device comprises an elastic band coupled to a body of said device, said band being embodied for positioning around said tire under elastic force. A preferred embodiment comprises a set of device and at least two pump nipples for use with the device. The invention also relates to a method of inflating a tire.

A device for inflating a tire includes a forward sleeve including an internally threaded head; an air intake assembly including a joining member secured to the forward sleeve and having a constricted section and an air inlet; an air intake extending out of the joining member at an acute angle and having an air channel for communicating with the air inlet through the constricted section, and a connector; and a rear sleeve secured to the joining member; and a valve assembly including a rod through both the rear sleeve and the joining member; a mounting sleeve in the forward sleeve and having a groove at a first end, the groove being in the internally threaded head, and a fitting hole communicating with the groove; a flexible tubular member in the mounting sleeve; a handle secured to the rod; and a snap ring on the rod.

A valve fitting includes a fitting body defining a fitting passageway, supply and working ports in fluid communication with the fitting passageway, a supply port coupler operable to connect the supply port with an associated feed port coupler providing a pressurized fluid, a working port coupler operable to connect the working port with an associated tire of a tire assembly of an associated work vehicle, a supply valve moveable in the fitting passageway between a first position closing the fitting passageway from the supply port and a second position opening the fitting passageway to the supply port, a biasing assembly biasing the supply valve towards the first position, and an actuator assembly comprising an actuator member operable to urge the supply valve towards the second position against the bias of the biasing assembly in response to the associated feed port coupler being connected with the supply port coupler.

An inflation viewing device has a main body which is externally provided with a transparent viewing portion and internally provided with an inner passage where an air path assembly is arranged. An air entrance connector is operatively connected to an external air source and to a first end of the main body. An air exit connector is connected to a second, opposed end of the main body and to an inflation valve. A guide spacer is provided between the air entrance connector and the main body. The guide spacer has an inner passage having a wider section in communication with the inner passage of the main body and a reduced section defining a communication opening with the air entrance connector. A filter is arranged in the communication opening. A plunger, biased by a spring, is slidably arranged within the inner passage of the guide spacer and guide section of the main body inner passage.
