Abstract: An inflatable protective bag includes a housing sack, a gasbag, an inflation means, a check valve and a deflation valve. The gasbag is attached to an inner surface of the housing sack. The inflation means communicates with the gasbag through the check valve. The deflation valve is located on the gasbag. When the housing sack contains goods, air can be injected into the gasbag by the inflation means through the check valve to inflate the gasbag to provide resilient protection for the goods from being damaged. The air can be released from the gasbag by pushing the deflation valve to facilitate removing of the goods. Thus the inflatable protective bag can provide protection as desired.

Abstract: A bladder-inflating structure including a resilient air chamber having a receiving space which can be reciprocally compressed and released. After released, the resilient air chamber itself can resiliently restore to its original state. An inflatable bladder is connected to one side of the resilient air chamber. An intake valve is disposed on the resilient air chamber. When the resilient air chamber is compressed and released, the intake valve only permits external air to one-way flow into the receiving space. A one-way membrane nozzle is disposed on one side of the resilient air chamber between the receiving space and the bladder. The one-way membrane nozzle is composed of two soft thin membranes. The peripheries of the soft thin membranes are partially fused with each other to define a fluid passage. The fluid passage has an inlet end extending into the receiving space and an outlet end extending into the bladder.
