Abstract: The disclosed tire valve includes an elastic valve body having a through passageway formed therein, with a constriction formed at an intermediate portion of the through passageway. A valve pin is provided with a gasket and is mounted to slide within the through passageway. A spring is positioned between the pin and the valve body to bias the pin to a sealing position. Preferably, the pin is formed of an elastic material. The valve body defines a sharp edged step adjacent to the constriction and the valve pin defines a sharp edged flange positioned to abut the step in the valve body so as to increase the bursting pressure of the valve.

Abstract: A tubeless tire valve has a one piece, integral valve body having a central passageway formed therein, wherein the passageway is formed of upper, central and lower regions. A one piece, integral valve pin has a head sized to fit in the upper region, a first shank extending away from the head to an enlargement, and a second shank extending away from the enlargement. The pin enlargement has a maximum dimension larger than the central region to create an interference fit therewith, and the maximum dimension is selected such that the enlargement can be forced through the central region. A resilient internal gasket is mounted on the second shank to seal the central passageway.

Abstract: A tubeless tire valve has a valve body and an external annular gasket having an internal through hole. The gasket, when not mounted, has a diameter partially lower than the diameter of the cylindrical portion of the valve body, on which it will be inserted, and partially larger than the latter at the coupling area with the rim. Externally, the gasket has at one end an extended lip directed towards the rim, then an intermediate zone having a larger diameter than that of the hole in the rim, and close to the intermediate zone an annular groove of reduced diameter, while a hollowed impression is provided on the valve body at the zone where the rim will be positioned.

Abstract: Safety valve coated or covered with rubber or the like, suitable to be vulcanized or sealed to inflatable articles, comprising a metal cap hinged or pivoted at one end thereof, which is pressed by a resilient member against a valve seating so as to provide for a sealing until the inner pressure in the inflatable article exceeds a determined rate defined by the resilient member. A top baffle is also provided for protecting the valve, adjusting the flow rate thereof and retaining a possible closing wedge.

Abstract: Valve for inflating and deflating inflatable articles, completely coated with rubber or other similar material, so that it can be vulcanized or otherwise sealed to the inflatable article. Systems are also provided for allowing fast deflation of the inflatable article, either by reason of applying and securing a tongue provided at the end of the valve plug; or by pressing and rotating the valve closure member such that projections or tabs provided on said closure member engage with the valve body whereby the valve remains open until the tabs are returned to recesses provided in the valve body.
