Patent number: 6631729Abstract: A universal valve connector for valves of vehicle tires comprises a connector housing, partly connected to a pressure source, preferably a hand or foot pump, and has a coupling hole with a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the valve for connection, where the coupling hole has securing means, plus a sealing means against various valve sizes. The sealing means is mounted coaxially in the connector housing and established on at least two parallel levels, having the centre line of the connector housing, where the minor diameters of the sealing means correspond to the major diameter of the valve, where the connector is mounted when used. The sealing means, closest to the coupling hole in the connector housing has the biggest minor diameter, while the sealing means farthest from the coupling hole has the smallest minor diameter, and diameters between the extremes correspond to distance between these extremes.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2001Date of Patent: October 14, 2003Assignee: NVB InternationalInventor: Nicolaas van der Blom
