Abstract: A valve assembly for inflatable bodies such as a recreational toy, is located in a recessed cup that is flush with the surface of the inflatable body. The cup has a central boss that has both an internal and external thread. The valve assembly is secured to the boss with the internal threads and a cap is secured to the boss with the external threads. The valve assembly provides for inflation using an air hose or a manual inflation device. The valve assembly is removable from the cup to facilitate deflation of the body after use. The cap provides sealing between the cup and valve member to inhibit loss of air.
