A combination air supply system for a work vehicle, includes a work vehicle compressor configured to be mounted on the work vehicle, wherein the work vehicle compressor is configured to compress a first supply of ambient air and to output a first compressed air supply via a compressed air line, wherein the compressed air line is configured to receive a second compressed air supply from an implement compressor via a compressed air connection line, wherein the implement compressor is configured to be mounted on an implement towed by the work vehicle, wherein the compressed air connection line is configured to couple the implement compressor to the compressed air line via a coupler, and a tire inflation system fluidly coupled to the compressed air line and configured to selectively increase and decrease an air pressure within a tire of the work vehicle, wherein the tire inflation system is configured to distribute the first compressed air supply, the second compressed air supply, and a combination air supply of the first and second compressed air supplies to the tire.

An inflator disposed within a tubeless tire for inflating the tubeless tire. A rechargeable electric storage disposed within a tubeless for providing electricity. An electric air compressor is mounted on an inside surface of the rim of the tubeless tire within the pressure cavity of the tubeless tire. The electric air compressor and an air pressure sensor disposed within the tubeless tire runs by a controller. The electric air compressor has a compressed air inlet vented to atmosphere in a custom valve stem through a conventional hole of a valve stem in the rim of the tubeless tire. A motion activated power generator recharges the rechargeable electric storage. A short-range radio transmits measured pressure data for each tire to a central OBD module plugged into in the vehicle. The central OBD module connects through a smartphone indirectly or directly to a central server via a networked cellular radio tower.

An assembly for an ATIS that includes a tire inflation valve and a tire deflation valve, and further includes a safety valve that is configured to receive the tire pressure, deflate a tire when tire pressure is too high such as due to braking heat, road friction, ambient temperature, or other reasons. The safety valve prevents deflation of the tire through the deflation valve in the case of low source pressure, such as the pressure source fails or a leak in the source pressure system lines. The assembly is designed to be quickly serviced in the field, where the serviceable parts are very inexpensive. Multiple devices can be installed in parallel with the others, with one device per tire or tire set. The assembly can be a block configured to be attached to a hub cap of a vehicle. It also enables a sensor placement on the hub cap for hub temperature sensing as well as tire pressures sensing and reporting.

A tire inflation viewing device that enables to view the proper operation of the inflation arrangements and that, in turn, enables to determine which of all of the tires is being inflated and has an air leak.

A tire pressure control device (1) of an off-road vehicle is configured for changing tire pressures of vehicle wheels (2a, 2b, 3a, 3b) of at least one vehicle axle (2, 3). Each pneumatic tire has a pressure-controlled wheel valve (4a, 4b, 5a, 5b) which is pneumatically connected to a control pressure line (S1, S2) and to a supply pressure line (V1, V2). The control pressure lines (S1, S2) and the supply pressure lines (V1, V2) are configured to be pneumatically connected to a compressed air supply device (6) and to be controlled by an electronic control unit (10) The actuation of the wheel valves (4a, 4b, 5a, 5b) takes place axle by axle via control valves (15, 16), and the compressed air supply of the vehicle wheels (2a, 2b, 3a, 3b) is carried out by side via supply valves (11, 12).

The invention relates to design of all-terrain vehicles. The vehicle comprises a gas line which is connected to all of the wheel tires simultaneously and is coupled to a system for inflating the tires. A suspension comprises a wheel springing system connected to the wheel tires, a pneumatic drive and a system for inflating the tires, wherein the wheel springing system is configured in the form of an gas line formed from the cavities of the pipes from which a frame is welded, or is configured outside the frame, forming a closed loop that is connected to each of the tires by means of pipes with closure members, and wherein the pneumatic drive and the system for inflating the tires are constituted by an engine exhaust system which is provided with a baffle and is coupled to the air line by means of a pipe with a closure member.

A novel valve that may include a self-energizing seal member with a lobe extending toward a valve seat surface, a radially outwardly extending skirt, an axially extending nose, solenoid-operated three-position valve member, a pressure sense port, and/or a pressure pick-up opening. The features of the valve may allow the valve to operate at higher flow rates while requiring less energy to operate, may have a wider pressure and/or temperature operation range, may allow bidirectional fluid flow, may be less expensive to manufacture, and/or may enable a simple and compact assembly of the valve with a pressure sensor. The self-energizing seal member may include a base portion and the lobe extending may extend at an angle from the base portion relative to a longitudinal axis. The lobe may reduce energy requirements to operate the valve compared to larger sealing contact area seals. For example, the lobe may have a small sealing area to allow the valve to be better balanced.

An assembly for a tire inflation system includes a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes a housing. The housing includes a base portion (56) and a cap portion (58). The base portion has a base perforation (90). The base perforation (90) is in fluid communication with a base cavity. The cap portion (58) is attached to the base portion (56). The cap portion (58) has a cap perforation (54) formed therein. The cap perforation (54) is in selective fluid communication with the base cavity. A piston (62) is disposed in the base cavity. A first area (A1) is defined by the base perforation (90), a second area (A2) is defined by the lateral area of a cylindrical space between the piston (62) and the cap portion (58), and a third area (A3) is defined by the cap perforation (54). The second area (A2) is greater than the first area (A1) and the third area (A3).
