Problems solved by technology

The problem at this point is that on the one hand the user has to set the switching valve to the correct position and at the same time has to connect the correct hose - i.e. the air delivery hose or the sealant hose - to the tire
it's troublesome
Furthermore, the provision of switching valves is expensive and requires additional installation space

Abstract

An apparatus for the introduction of air and / or sealant into a tire includes a container for the sealant which has an inlet and an outlet, wherein the outlet can be connected to the inlet end of a hose whose outlet end can be connected to the tire to be filled and includes a pressure generation means which can be selectively connected to the inlet of the container or to the inlet end of a hose whose outlet end can be connected to the tire to be filled. The same hose is provided for the connection between the pressure generation means and the tire to be filled, on the one hand, and between the outlet of the container and the tire to be filled, on the other hand, with respective couplings being provided at the pressure generation means, at the inlet of the container and at the outlet of the container as well as at the inlet end of the hose which selectively enable the inlet end of the hose to be connected directly to the pressure generation means or the inlet of the container to be connected to the pressure generation means and the inlet end of the hose to be connected to the outlet of the container.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for introducing air and / or a sealant into a tire, in particular a tire of a motor vehicle, having a container for the sealant having an inlet and an outlet, wherein The outlet can be connected to the inlet end of a hose, the outlet end of which can be connected to the tire to be filled; and the device has pressure generating means, in particular an electric pump or compressor, which can be selected Connected either to the inlet of the container or to the inlet end of a hose, the outlet end of which can be connected to the tire to be filled. Background technique [0002] Such a device can be carried on a motor vehicle as a so-called puncture repair kit as a replacement for a spare wheel. The puncture repair kit can be used to just inflate the tire or to seal the tire and then inflate the tire. In this respect, the selective connection of the pressure generating device to the inlet of the container or to the inlet end ...
