DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0057] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. But what shall be addressed is that various embodiments are also within the scope of the present invention.
[0058] Please refer to
[0059] The air inlet clipper 200 includes a main body 201 and a clipping member 220, the main body 210 is formed with a first end and a second end, and includes a passageway 211 and at least one cut groove 212. The passageway 211 is axially penetrated the main body 210, as shown in
[0060] As shown in
[0061] One end of the elastic member 400 is abutted against one end of the round disk pad 300, another end thereof is abutted against the air inlet clipper 200; and a compression spring can be adopted as the elastic member 400.
[0062] According to the rapid clipper for inflating tire provided by the present invention, before the tire valve nozzle 700 is connected to the rapid clipper for inflating tire, the elastic member 400 is stretched for driving the first control member to be in a first working position, the first control member is abutted against the clipping member 220, the clipping member 220 is located at the inner end of the cut groove 212; after the tire valve nozzle 700 is connected to the rapid clipper for inflating tire, the elastic member 400 is in a compressed status, the first control member is in a second working position for driving the clipping member 220 to tightly clip the tire valve nozzle 700.
[0063] Furthermore, the rapid clipper for inflating tire further comprises a second control member, the second control member is moveably disposed in the air inlet clipper 200, abutted against another end of the round disk pad 300 opposite to the elastic member 400, thereby allowing the location of the round disk pad 300 to be altered. Substantially, the second control member is formed in a sleeve-like status and sleeved at the exterior of the air inlet clipper 200, and the second control member is a moveable sleeve 500. The round disk pad 300 is disposed between the moveable sleeve 500 and the air inlet clipper 200, and the moveable sleeve 500 is formed with an abutting part 510 abutted against another end of the round disk pad 300 relative to the elastic member, and a pressure generated by the moveable sleeve 500 is able to be directly applied to the elastic member 400 via the round disk pad 300.
[0064] The operation process of the above-mentioned rapid clipper for inflating tire is illustrated as followings: [0065] (1) when the tire is desired to be inflated and before the tire valve nozzle is connected to the rapid clipper for inflating tire, as shown in
[0067] Because the clipping member 220 is subjected to the pushing force of the elastic
[0068] member 400, a greater force is required for releasing the tire valve nozzle 700. Please refer to
[0069] On the other hand, when the tire is desired to be inflated, the process of inserting the tire valve nozzle 700 into the air inlet clipper 200 requires a less force, and when the clipping member 220 is served to buckle the outer thread 710 of the tire valve nozzle 700, the force-saving inclined pushing device allows the deviation loss of the vertical pushing force F of the elastic member 400 to be smaller as shown in
[0070] According to the rapid clipper for inflating tire provided by the present invention, the clipping member 200 is allowed to pass the round disk pad 300 so as to be connected to the elastic member 400, the inclined slot 310 of the round disk pad 300 forms a force-saving inclined pushing status, so that a small force is required for overcoming the pushing force of the elastic member 400 applied to the clipping member 220, thereby allowing the tire valve nozzle 700 to be released; and the clipping force of the clipping member 220 buckling the tire valve nozzle 700 can be increased, thereby ensuring there is no gas leaking while the tire being inflated.
[0071] When the above-mentioned cut groove 212 is a horizontal groove, the displacement process of the inclined slot 310 of the round disk pad 300 is able to form a force-saving inclined pushing status, when the cut groove is formed as an inclined groove, the inclined surface of the cut groove is also able to form a force-saving inclined pushing status, so that a less force is loss, and a small force is required for overcoming the pushing force of the elastic member 400 applied to the clipping member 220, thereby allowing the tire valve nozzle 700 to be released.
[0072] According to one preferred embodiment and as shown in
[0073] According to one preferred embodiment and as shown in
[0074] Furthermore, as shown in
[0075] According to one preferred embodiment provided by the present invention, the rapid clipper for inflating tire further comprises an anti-leaking pad 600. The anti-leaking pad 600 is disposed at the end where the air inlet connector 100 being inserted into the air inlet clipper 200, and connected to the air inlet connector 100 and the main body 210 of the air inlet clipper 200 with a sealed means. The anti-leaking pad 600 is made of an elastic material, so that an airtight effect can be ensured, and when the anti-leaking pad 600 is pressed by the tire valve nozzle 700, the valve nozzle core of the tire valve nozzle 700 is propelled to be opened, at this moment the elastic force of the anti-leaking pad 600 and the elastic force of the elastic member 400 are both served to apply the pushing force to the round disk pad 300, thereby increasing the clipping force of the clipping member 220 buckling the tire valve nozzle 700.
[0076] According to another preferred embodiment provided by the present invention, the air inlet clipper 200 is disposed with a latch ring 800, which is used for restraining the moveable sleeve 500 from being released from the air inlet clipper 200, so that the round disk pad 300, the moveable sleeve 500 and the air inlet clipper 200 can be assembled as one piece. Substantially, the latch ring 800 is latched on the outer circumference at the first end of the air inlet clipper 200, arranged to be opposite to the abutting part 510 of the moveable sleeve 500, and served to perform a position limiting operation via blocking the abutting part 510.
[0077] According to one another preferred embodiment provided by the present invention, when the compression spring is adopted as the elastic member 400, because the end part of the compression spring is not a planar surface, for providing a better fitting with the end part of the compression spring and maintaining the stability while the round disk pad 300 being moved, the contact surface of the round disk pad 300 and the compression spring is formed as an inclined surface.
[0078] According to still one another preferred embodiment provided by the present invention and as shown in
[0079] According to still one another preferred embodiment provided by the present invention and as shown in
[0080] Many modifications and other embodiments of the inventions set forth herein will come to mind to one skilled in the art to which these inventions pertain having the benefit of the teachings presented in the foregoing descriptions and the associated drawings. Therefore, it is to be understood that the inventions are not to be limited to the specific examples of the embodiments disclosed and that modifications and other embodiments are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.
