Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of air pumps, and in particular to a rotary reversing air pump for inflation and deflation. Background Art
[0002] Inflatable products are increasingly widely used, such as inflatable beds, inflatable pools, inflatable pads, etc. These inflatable products need to be inflated for use and deflated for folding and storage. For the inflation of inflatable products, currently, manual air pumps are generally used for inflation, or electric inflatable pumps are used for inflation. The inflation process is generally carried out by docking the air pump with the air nozzle of the inflatable product. For the deflation of inflatable products, generally, the air nozzle of the inflatable product is opened to allow the inflatable product to deflate naturally.
[0003] Existing air pumps can also have the functions of inflation and suction at the same time. They control the switching between inflation and deflation by pressing or rotating the corresponding control knob with fingers to control the corresponding mechanical structure changes, but the structure is relatively complex and not very convenient to use.
