  • Method for performing vehicle maintenance and repair
    Patent number: 7874057
    Abstract: A wheel trolley assembly that enables easier and more efficient tire rotation is provided. Various service stations, one of which includes the wheel trolley assembly, are arranged sequentially one after the other by means of a series of conveyor means, each positioned in a manner which allows them to rotate independently of one another, while at the same time facilitating the transfer of vehicles from one station to the next. The wheel trolley assembly and series of independently-moving conveyors greatly increase the efficiency and speed of vehicle service, thereby increasing the volume of vehicles which can be serviced as well as customer satisfaction levels.

  • PRESSURE-CONTROLLING APPLIANCE FOR AN INFLATABLE PRODUCT
    Publication number: 20100278659
    Abstract: A pressure-controlling appliance for an inflatable product has a inflatable body, a pump mounted in the inflatable body, a pump switch and an inflation-deflation valve. The pump inflates or deflates the inflatable bodythrough the inflation-deflation valve. The pressure-controlling appliance also comprises an inflation-deflation controlling mechanism and a pressure-controlling mechanism. The inflation-deflation controlling mechanism is applied to open and close the inflation-deflation valve and to turn the pump switch on or off. The pressure-controlling mechanism operates the inflation-deflation controlling mechanism according to the pressure in the inflatable body that compared with the high or low reference pressure.
