Tire valve assembly

A tire valve assembly includes a stem and a valve unit. The valve unit includes a movable part and a seal member. When introducing pressurized air into the tire valve assembly, the valve unit moves to a position in the stem to allow the pressurized air to flow into the tire. When the pressurized air is stopped from entering the tire valve assembly, the valve unit is pushed back by the pressure in the tire to seal the inlet so that the pressurized air in the tire does not leak to keep the tire pressure.

20230211637 · 2023-07-06 ·

A tubeless tire and a valve for a tubeless bicycle tire having a rim is provided. The valve includes a stem body having a first and second end with a first opening. A rim gasket is coupled to the first end. A cap is coupled to the second end, the cap having a pin passage therethough, the cap having a circumferential concavity on an outer diameter. A valve seat is disposed between the cap and the second end, the valve seat having a second hole that fluidly couples the first opening and the pin passage. A spring is disposed within the first hole. A seal is movably disposed within the first opening and biased against the valve seat by the spring, the seal being movable between a first position and a second position.

INFLATION VALVE FOR TUBELESS TIRES

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.

Wheel Valve Assembly & The Tire Inflation System Made Therewith

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.

Pressure and temperature compensated control valve assembly

A pressure and temperature compensated valve assembly includes a flow valve allowing inflation flow from a control port to a tire port and controlling deflation flow from the tire port to the control port. A throttle valve restricts deflation flow between the tire port and the control port when deflating the tire at high flow rates or when tire pressure is high, thus enabling the flow valve to be closed. The throttle valve includes a throttle diaphragm that throttles in response to flow from the tire port and which does not restrict inflation flow from the control port. The valve assembly further includes a temperature responsive member engaging the flow valve, and which deforms in response to a change in temperature in the valve assembly, thus negating temperature effects on the flow valve, allowing the flow valve to close at a consistent force across a range of operating temperatures.

MULTIFUNCTIONAL EXTERNAL INFLATING VALVE AND MOUNTING METHOD FOR LOADING DEVICE OF INFLATING VALVE
20220234402 · 2022-07-28 ·

A multifunctional external inflating valve and a mounting method for a loading device are disclosed. An inflating valve body of the inflating valve includes a three-way through main body through from a side surface by a side surface connecting part connecting a loading device. A valve core is arranged in an axial middle hole. A hole cavity is formed in the front portion of the axial middle hole and connected to an original tire inflating valve. An outer conical surface is arranged on the front portion of the valve core. The front portion, comprising the outer conical surface, of the core protrudes out of the front end of the hole cavity of the main body. An core conical surface sealing rubber pipe is mounted on the outer conical surface of the core and seals the core and a conical hole sealing surface of a tire inflating valve inner hole cavity.

RAPID-DEFLATE VALVE STEM AND ASSOCIATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

A valve stem for controlling inflation and deflation is provided. The valve stem includes a valve body having a central passage and a lateral port venting to the atmosphere. A valve core can be positioned within the central passage and configured to permit gas flow into the central passage. A collar is configured to surround an intermediate portion of the valve body, with the collar movable between a first position, where the collar occludes the lateral port to prohibit gas flow out of the lateral port, and a second position, where the collar opens the lateral port to permit gas flow from the central passage through the lateral port. A pressure set assembly can couple to the valve body and be set to a pressure at which the pressure set assembly closes to prohibit gas flow through the pressure set assembly and through the lateral port.
