(12) Referring to FIGS. 1-10, an integrated inflating and deflating pump includes an outer cylinder 100, a lid 110 covering the top end 101a of the outer cylinder 100, a one-way valve mechanism 200 arranged at the bottom of the outer cylinder 200, and an inflating and deflating mechanism 300 placed in the outer cylinder 100 in a forward or reverse direction. The top end 101a of the outer cylinder 100 is connected to a product to be inflated or deflated, such as inflatable boats, swimming circles, tires, etc. The inflating and deflating mechanism 300 has an air inlet 301; when the inflating and deflating mechanism 300 is placed in the forward direction, the air inlet 301 is close to the product to be inflated or deflated, the inflating and deflating mechanism 300 extracts air from the product to achieve deflation; when the inflating and deflating mechanism is placed in the reverse direction, the air inlet 301 is close to the one-way valve mechanism 200, the one-way valve mechanism 200 is opened, the bottom of the outer cylinder 100 is in communication with the outside, and the inflating and deflating mechanism 300 fills the product with air from the outside to achieve inflation.

(13) The lid 110 is pivotally connected to the top end 101a of the outer cylinder 100. The lid 110 is rotated to cover and seal the outer cylinder 100, and rotated in a reverse direction to open the outer cylinder 100. Specifically, opposite two edges of the lids 110 are respectively provided with a shaft hole 111 and a buckle 112. The top end 101a of the outer cylinder 100 extends laterally to form an ear edge 102, the opposite two sides of the ear edge 102 are equipped with a pair of installing poles 103 and a groove 104, a shaft 113 passes through the shaft hole 111, with both ends thereof are respectively arranged in the installing poles 103, thereby pivotally connecting the lid 110 to the shaft 113. The groove 104 and the buckle 112 are matched with each other, when the lid 110 covers the outer cylinder 110, the buckle 112 is accommodated in the groove 104 to fix the lid 110.

(14) The lid 110 is provided with a sealing slot 114, the sealing slot 114 is equipped with a sealing ring 101, when the lid 110 covers the outer cylinder 100, the top end 101a of the outer cylinder 100 is squeezed into the sealing ring 101, thereby sealing and connecting the outer cylinder 100 and the lid 110.

(15) As seen in FIG. 2 and FIG. 7, when the integrated inflating and deflating pump is used to inflate or deflate the product, the lid 110 is opened from the outer cylinder 100. The top end 101a of the outer cylinder 100 is connected with the product to be inflated and deflated, the sealing ring 101 also plays the function of sealing and connecting the outer cylinder 100 and the product to be inflated and deflated.

(16) The buckle 112 is a U-shaped clip, with a free end protruding upward by a paddle 1121, and both sides of the free end respectively protruding outward to form protrusions 115. When the protrusions 115 enter the groove 104, the protrusions 115 abut against the wall of the buckle 112 to achieve interference fit so that the lid 110 and the outer cylinder 100 are fixedly connected, thereby preventing detachment.

(17) The lid 110 is provided with several reinforcing ribs 116 at one side facing the outer cylinder 100, which increases the strength of the lid 110 and prevents excessive internal pressure in the outer cylinder 100 from blasting the lid 110.

(18) The bottom surface of the outer cylinder 100 protrudes inwards to form the first inserted tube 120, and the one-way valve mechanism 200 is mounted in the first inserted tube 120. The one-way valve mechanism 200 controls the outer cylinder 100 in communication with the outside or not.

(19) Specifically, the one-way valve mechanism 200 comprises a sealing pad 210, hermetically sealed the first inserted tube 120 so as to isolate the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 100 from the outside, or open the first inserted tube 120 so as to communicate the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 100 with the outside. When deflating the product, the inflating and deflating mechanism 300 extracts the air from the product, opens the sealing pad 210 by the wind pressure generated by the following blade assembly, thereby communicating the outer cylinder with the outside. When inflating the product, the inflating and deflating mechanism 300 opens the sealing pad 210, thereby communicating the outer cylinder with the outside.

(20) The one-way valve mechanism 200 includes a mounting seat 220, a valve tube 230, a valve cover 240, a valve rod 250, and a spring 260.
