Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air gun technology, specifically a handheld tire air gun. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of automobiles in China, the products for automobile assembly, repair, and maintenance are also being rapidly updated to adapt to the ever-growing automobile market. At the same time, the requirements for supporting products are becoming higher and higher, not only requiring ease of operation but also higher precision. The earliest auto tire inflator guns used an external pressure gauge. Later, for ease of use and viewing, handheld digital displays appeared, integrating the pressure display into the cavity. Because it is a handheld inflator gun, the air pressure value can be seen at any time when using the inflator gun anywhere.
[0003] A tire inflator gun disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 216843284 U, as obtained through a search, includes a handle, an air inlet connector, an inflation hose, a trigger, a pressure gauge, a valve seat assembly, and a valve core assembly. The handle contains an air inlet channel, an inflation port, a first valve port, a first valve chamber, a second valve port, a second valve chamber, and a pressure detection channel. The air inlet connector is connected to the handle and communicates with the air inlet channel. The air inlet channel communicates with the first valve chamber through the first valve port. The first valve chamber communicates with the second valve chamber through the second valve port. The inflation port communicates with the first valve chamber. The inflation hose is connected to the handle and communicates with the inflation port. The pressure detection channel communicates with the second valve chamber. The pressure gauge is connected to the handle and communicates with the pressure detection channel. The valve seat assembly includes a valve seat and a valve stem. The valve seat is fixed to the handle, and the valve stem is movably disposed within the valve seat. The lower end of the valve stem extends into the first valve chamber through the second valve chamber, and the upper end of the valve stem extends out of the valve seat. The trigger is hinged to the handle and abuts against the upper end of the valve stem.
[0004] The air gun described in the aforementioned patent still has some shortcomings. To make it easier for users to inflate tires, existing handheld tire air guns are often equipped with pressure displays and sensors. However, most of these electronic components are concentrated inside the air gun's cavity. The compressed air connected to the air gun sometimes contains dust, moisture, or oil molecules. If these impurities are not effectively filtered, they will enter the air gun, damaging the pressure display and sensors installed inside and affecting the user's experience. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 ,
[0026] Example 1: A handheld tire inflator includes a pressure control component 1, a first air inlet pipe 2 connected to the bottom end of the pressure control component 1, an inflation pipe 3 connected to the top end of the pressure control component 1, an inflation nozzle 4 provided at the end of the inflation pipe 3, a second air inlet pipe 6 provided at the bottom of the first air inlet pipe 2, the second air inlet pipe 6 and the first air inlet pipe 2 being connected by a gas filter assembly 5, and an air inlet nozzle 7 provided at the bottom end of the second air inlet pipe 6.
[0027] The gas filtration assembly 5 includes a filter connecting block 501 disposed between the first air inlet pipe 2 and the second air inlet pipe 6. A filter slot 502 is provided on the side of the filter connecting block 501. Air inlet holes 503 are provided on both the upper and lower side walls of the filter slot 502. A fixing block 504 is inserted into the filter slot 502. A filter screen mounting hole 505 is provided in the middle of the fixing block 504. A filter screen limiting groove 506 is provided on the side wall of the filter screen mounting hole 505. Two filter screen limiting screws 507 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bottom wall of the filter screen limiting groove 506. A filter cotton mesh 508 is inserted into the filter screen mounting hole 505. Two mounting holes 509 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the filter cotton mesh 508. The filter screen limiting screws 507 pass through the mounting holes 509.
[0028] The top of the filter cotton mesh 508 is provided with a filter mesh abutment rod 510. Two fixing holes 511 are symmetrically opened at both ends of the filter mesh abutment rod 510. The fixing holes 511 are all penetrated by the filter mesh limiting screw 507. The top of the filter mesh limiting screw 507 is fitted with a fixing nut 512. Two side connecting plates 513 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the filter connecting block 501. Two fastening screw holes 514 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the end of the fixing block 504. Fastening screws 515 are inserted through the side connecting plates 513. The end of the fastening screw 515 is inserted into the fastening screw hole 514.
[0029] Example 2: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the filter cotton mesh 508 is funnel-shaped, and the height of the top of the filter cotton mesh 508 is less than the depth of the filter mesh mounting hole 505.
[0030] This makes it easier for the fixing block 504 to be inserted into the filter slot 502.
[0031] Example 3: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the diameter of the bottom end of the filter cotton mesh 508 is the same as the diameter of the filter mesh limiting groove 506.
[0032] This allows the filter cotton mesh 508 to be inserted into the filter mesh mounting hole 505 and better supported by the bottom wall of the filter mesh limiting groove 506.
[0033] Example 4: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that a sealing ring is provided on the outer side of the end of the fixing block 504.
[0034] This makes the sealing of the fixing block 504 into the filter slot 502 more tight.
[0035] In this embodiment, since existing handheld tire inflators are often equipped with pressure displays and sensors, most of these electronic components are concentrated inside the inflator's cavity. The compressed air connected to the inflator sometimes contains dust, moisture, or oil molecules. If these impurities are not effectively filtered, they will enter the inflator and damage the pressure display and sensors installed inside the gun, affecting the user's use.
[0036] In summary, in specific implementation, a gas filter assembly 5 is provided between the first air intake pipe 2 and the second air intake pipe 6. The air intake hole 503 in the gas filter assembly 5 allows compressed gas connected to the air intake nozzle 7 to enter the pressure control component 1 and be inflated into the tire through the inflation nozzle 4 at the end of the inflation pipe 3. When the compressed gas contains impurities, it will be filtered by the filter cotton mesh 508, effectively filtering out oil, moisture or dust contained in the gas, thereby ensuring that the gas inflated into the tire is cleaner.
[0037] During prolonged use, dust will accumulate on the filter screen 508. At this time, the user can pull out the fastening screw 515 inserted into the fastening screw hole 514, so that the fixing block 504 can be inserted into the filter slot 502 without restriction. Then, the user can quickly and easily pull out the filter screen 508 set in the filter slot 502. Then, by removing the fixing nut 512 from the top of the filter screen limiting screw 507, the user can quickly remove and clean the filter screen 508, making it more convenient for the user.
