Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inflation equipment technology, specifically to an inflation / deflation valve for an air pump and an air pump with a storage capacity. Background Technology

[0002] Tubeless tires, also known as low-pressure tires or pneumatic tires, have high elasticity and wear resistance, as well as good adhesion and heat dissipation performance. They are increasingly used on bicycles, motorcycles, cars, buses, and trucks.

[0003] When electric vehicles or bicycles use tubeless tires, a leak can cause problems. Because there's a gap between the tubeless tire and the rim, a regular air pump can't keep up with the rate of air loss, resulting in the tire not inflating properly. Many consumers try to fix this by going to a repair shop to have an air pump inflated or by adding an inner tube. However, going to a repair shop is time-consuming and physically demanding, and adding an inner tube negates the advantages of tubeless tires and is also more expensive.

[0004] In the prior art, the utility model patent with application number 202220790876.0 has a relatively complex internal valve structure, which is not convenient for quick switching between tire inflation, air cylinder inflation and sealing closure. It requires multiple valve opening and closing operations, which is cumbersome and has an adverse impact on the user. Therefore, an inflation / deflation valve for an air pump and an air pump with air storage are proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the technical deficiencies in the prior art and effectively solve the technical problems in the background art, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An air pump inflation / deflation valve includes a valve seat. A transverse valve pipe is integrally formed on the valve seat, creating a T-shape. A valve stem is movably inserted into the valve pipe. Four annular sealing grooves are linearly arranged from left to right along the outer side of the valve stem. Each of the four annular sealing grooves contains a sealing ring. These four annular seals sequentially divide the outer side of the valve stem into a deflation section, an inflation section, and a closure section. The deflation section has a T-shaped vent hole with openings at the top and bottom and at the front. The inflation section has an inflation hole with openings at the front and back. A connector connecting the valve seat to the vertical channel of the vent hole is located at the top of the valve seat. An exhaust pipe (first type) is located at the center of the bottom of the valve seat, connecting the valve pipe and the connector. This exhaust pipe is connected to the vertical end of the vent hole. An exhaust pipe (second type) is located at the front of the bottom of the valve seat, connecting the valve pipe and the connector. This exhaust pipe is connected to the horizontal front end of both the vent hole and the inflation hole.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, springs are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction between the annular sealing groove and the sealing ring.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a limiting ring groove is provided at the right end of the outer side of the valve stem for limiting the movement of the closing part to stop the inflation / deflation operation. The outer side of the valve stem is provided with scale lines at the left side of the deflation part and the right side of the closing part for limiting the movement of the inflation part to connect the inflation operation. A handle is integrally provided at the left end of the valve stem, and a limiting ring is provided at the right side of the handle at the left end of the outer side of the valve stem for limiting the movement of the deflation part to connect the deflation operation.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a slip ring is provided on the front side of the valve seat, and a sliding rod is provided on the outer side of the limiting ring, which is slidably connected to the slip ring and serves to limit and guide the movement of the valve stem in the valve pipeline.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the rear side of the valve seat is provided with an inflation connector that communicates with the valve pipeline and can be correspondingly communicated with the inflation port and the exhaust pipeline. A one-way air inlet valve is correspondingly provided on the inflation connector.

[0011] An air pump includes a base. From back to front, the rear end of the upper surface of the base has a first insert and a second insert, respectively, for insertion into an exhaust pipe and an exhaust pipe. From front to back, the front end of the upper surface of the base has a first fixing groove and a second fixing groove. The bottom of the first fixing groove and the second fixing groove have an exhaust hole and an exhaust hole, respectively. A connecting pipe (first) for connecting the first insert and the first exhaust hole, and a connecting pipe (second) for connecting the second insert and the second exhaust hole, are respectively disposed in the cavity at the bottom of the base. An air pump assembly and an air pump are fixedly installed in the first fixing groove and the second fixing groove, respectively. The air pump assembly and the air pump are respectively connected to the first exhaust hole and the second exhaust hole.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, it also includes an air pump tube, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the connector.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the upper surface of the gas storage cylinder is provided with a pressure gauge communicating with its inner cavity.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. By pushing and pulling the valve stem within the valve pipeline, the tire inflation, air tank inflation, and sealing closure can be quickly and easily switched without the need for multiple valve opening and closing operations. The operation is simple and direct, bringing convenience to the user.

[0016] Specifically, when the valve stem moves to the left edge of the limiting ring groove on the right side of the valve stem and aligns with the right edge of the valve pipe, the closing part aligns with the vent hole on the upper side of the connector and the valve pipe to seal and close.

[0017] When the valve stem moves to the outside of the valve stem and the scale lines on the left side of the venting section and the right side of the closing section are aligned with the left and right sides of the valve pipe respectively, the transverse inflation hole of the inflation section is aligned and connected with the inflation connector and the exhaust pipe. At this time, the inflation connector is connected to the external electric air pump, or the exhaust connector on the outside of the air pump of the inflation connector is connected through the detachable air pump pipe to inflate the air tank.

[0018] When the valve stem moves to the left end of the valve stem and the limiting ring is aligned with the left side of the valve pipe, the vertical end and the horizontal front end of the vent hole of the venting part are aligned with the first and second exhaust pipes, respectively. At this time, the air tank and the air pump assembly can simultaneously inflate the tire through the air pumping pipe connected to the tire inflation head.

[0019] 2. The sliding of the slide rod within the slip ring limits and guides the movement of the valve stem 3 within the valve pipeline 2.

[0020] 3. The springs and sealing rings in the four annular sealing grooves play an auxiliary role in sealing and preventing air leakage when the valve stem moves and switches. Attached Figure Description
