Problems solved by technology

The conventional bicycle pump does not have any illuminating means for use at night.
Hence, unless the user brings a flashlight or something similar, she / he must operate the bicycle pump to fill air into the tire in the dark at night by using her / his hands to feel the way because of poor visibility.
However, depending on poor road conditions, it will be very difficult to maintain the correct pressure filled into the tire thereby often causing flat tire when traveling.
Nevertheless, none of the bicycle pumps on the market can fulfill the need for using at night.

Abstract

A bicycle pump having illuminating devices for enabling it to be used in the dark, which includes a pump portion, a nozzle and a pressure gauge mounted on the body portion, the pressure gauge having an inlet connected to a lower end of the pump body and an outlet connected to the nozzle, the improvement wherein the pressure gauge is provided with a first illuminating means, and the nozzle is provided with a second illuminating means therein. The nozzle has an upper end provided with an illuminating seat in which is fitted the second illuminating means. The illuminating seat has a cover engageable with one side of the nozzle and the rear end of the illuminating seat being provided with a switch for controlling power supplied from batteries to the second illuminating means.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001](a) Technical Field of the Invention[0002]This invention is related to a bicycle pump, and in particular to one which can be conveniently used at night.[0003](b) Description of the Prior Art[0004]The conventional bicycle pump does not have any illuminating means for use at night. Hence, unless the user brings a flashlight or something similar, she / he must operate the bicycle pump to fill air into the tire in the dark at night by using her / his hands to feel the way because of poor visibility. However, depending on poor road conditions, it will be very difficult to maintain the correct pressure filled into the tire thereby often causing flat tire when traveling.[0005]It is expected that the bicycle pump should be lightweight and simple in construction. It should not does not have any unnecessary attachments. A bicycle pump with a pressure gauge is an inevitable equipment for a bicycle rider who has to travel for a long distance. Nevertheless, none of t...
