  • Patent number: 8925594
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a structure for a portable tire inflator that includes a triangular housing comprising a triangular face, a triangular back, two sides extending between the triangular face and the triangular back on first and second sides of the triangular face and back, and a support base on a third side of the triangular face and back extending between the triangular face and the triangular back, a pump motor within the housing. The inflator may be configured such that a majority of the total weight of the portable tire inflator is positioned between the middle of the triangular face and the base. The tire inflator may also include a reflective border on at least two of three edges of the triangular face and an air pressure indicator responsive to air pressure within the air hose, the air pressure indicator visible on an external surface of the housing.

  • Patent number: 8887769
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a structure for a wall-mountable tire inflator that includes a housing having a variable pressure pump motor and rechargeable battery therein, a face, a backside opposite the face, four sides extending between the face and the backside, and an opening sized to receive a post of an air hose support tray. The backside of the housing may include at least one wall mounting element adapted to couple with a wall mount structure extending from a wall. The tire inflator may also include a coiled air hose extending from the housing, a light bar pivotally coupled to the housing. The detachable air hose support tray may include an annular channel on a side surrounding a raised central projection, a post extending radially from the support tray, and a wall mounting aperture extending through a portion of the support tray.

  • Publication number: 20120168031
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a structure for a hand-held tire inflator that includes a housing having a pump motor therein, a bottom surface, a top surface opposite the bottom surface, a cylindrical base between the top and bottom surface, and two arms extending laterally from the housing above the cylindrical base and below the top surface. A flexible light support may be coupled to a second arm of the two arms, the flexible light support having a light source on a distal end of the flexible light support. A pressure indicator may be positioned on the top surface, the pressure indicator responsive to air pressure within the air hose. A power switch may be disposed on the housing and electrically coupled to the light source and to the pump motor.
