  • Patent number: 11002337
    Abstract: A tire-balancing including a tire-balancing material in a first pocket of the system and at least one tire accessory such as a tire-valve core in the second pocket of the system. The first and second pockets are spatially separated from one another with a seal and a line of perforation. The first pocket has a duct dimensioned to release the particles, oriented towards the second container, and sealed from the second container. The methods for fabrication of the tire-balancing system and balancing a tire with the use of such system. Before use, the first pocket is opened by separating the second pocket along the perforation, and placed in a tire let a flow of the particles from inside the first container into the tire through the duct. The tire-valve core is removed from the second container and applied to the wheel.

  • Publication number: 20170282653
    Abstract: A container system for particles of a tire-balancing material has a first container for holding the particles and a second container for holding at least one accessory such as a tire-valve core. The second container is connected to the first container and a perforation is provided between the first container and the second container. The first container has a duct dimensioned to release the particles, and oriented towards the second container. The duct is sealed by the second container as a result of connection between the first and second containers. Before use, the first container is opened by separating the second container along the perforation. The opened first container is placed in a tire, where the duct facilitates a smooth flow of the particles from inside the first container into the tire. The tire-valve core is removed from the second container and applied to the wheel.
