Patent number: 7357625Abstract: An electrical pump adapted for use with a piston rod in an air nozzle has an electromagnetic valve board with an electromagnetic valve thereon. A Z-shaped push rod is provided to be adapted to be driven by the electromagnetic valve so as to drive the piston rod to move accordingly. The movement of the Z-shaped push rod allows air from the electrical pump to be pumped into an object to be inflated/deflated when the motor is running depending on whether the inlet or the outlet is in alignment with the nozzle assembly of the nozzle assembly.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2005Date of Patent: April 15, 2008Assignee: Ho Lee Co., Ltd.Inventor: Stanley Yen

Patent number: 7284968Abstract: A bidirectional air pump to selectively inflate or deflate an inflatable object has a housing, a pump assembly and a motor. The housing has a controller cover, a pump cover, and a motor cover. The pump assembly is mounted inside the housing and has a centrifugal pump, a binary supply/discharge valve assembly, a selectable check valve assembly and a valve controller. The motor is mounted inside the housing. The valve assembly and the motor cooperate to pump air into or draw air out of an air mattress or inflatable sofa.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2004Date of Patent: October 23, 2007Assignee: Ho Lee Co., Ltd.Inventor: Lung-Po Tsai

Patent number: 7128525Abstract: An air pump has a casing, a motor assembly, a fan assembly, a faceplate and a sliding valve assembly. The motor assembly is mounted in the casing and has a motor. The fan assembly has a fan housing, an inlet manifold, an inlet plate and a centrifugal impeller. The centrifugal impeller is mounted rotatably in the fan housing and connects to the motor. The sliding valve assembly is hollow, is mounted slidably between the faceplate and the motor assembly and has a rear, a partition and an air passage. The partition extends into the sliding valve assembly. The air passage is formed between the partition and the rear. The air pump inflates when the air passage aligns with in the inlet manifold. The air pump deflates when the air passage aligns with the fan housing.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2004Date of Patent: October 31, 2006Assignee: Ho Lee Co., Ltd.Inventor: Chun-Chung Tsai

Patent number: 7086415Abstract: A control valve includes a horn-like body and a seat with an interior surface mounted on the rear. A secondary outlet, primary outlet and inlet are defined through the seat. Two hollow poles are formed at the interior surface of the seat and two first resilient members are mounted respectively in the hollow poles. A cover is mounted in the body and has two rods mounted in the hollow poles and abutting the first resilient members. Two shafts are formed in the cover and aligned respectively with the secondary outlet and primary outlet. Two valve disks are formed respectively at distal ends of the shafts and respectively align with the outlets. Two buttons are mounted on an outer surface of the cover, and each has a barb to selectively engage a recess defined in the horn-like body.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2004Date of Patent: August 8, 2006Assignee: Ho Lee Co., Ltd.Inventor: Lung-Po Tsai

Patent number: 6955529Abstract: A bidirectional air pump assembly includes a pump mounting case, a valve and an air pump. The pump mounting case is mounted in an inflatable object and has a valve mounting hole. The valve is held in the valve mounting hole and includes an adapter with a valve port and a valve disk. The valve disk is attached to the adapter and has a disk body and at least one disk stop protruding from the disk body. The air pump is detachably mounted in the pump mounting case and connects to the valve port. Therefore, the air pump draws air out of the inflatable body through the valve port and a gap caused by the at least one disk stop abutting the air pump, which keeps the disk body from completely closing the valve port.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2003Date of Patent: October 18, 2005Assignee: Ho Lee Co., Ltd.Inventor: Lung-Po Tsai

Patent number: 5287982Abstract: The improved structure for the external cap of a spout used in waterbeds has a cap body with a slot opening, and two flanges with punched holes extending from the edge of said external cap. The two supporting legs of a hand grip can feed through the punched holes of the flanges and move freely. The user can pull up the hand grip to rotate the external cap body in order to open or close said external cap. The horizontal portion of said hand grip has a T-shaped sectional surface which can be partially adapted into the slot; the bottom end portions of the supporting legs have inverted hooks on both sides to avoid the hand grip from disengaging with the external cap.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 1993Date of Patent: February 22, 1994Assignee: Ho Lee Co., Ltd.Inventor: John Tsai
