Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle wheel comprising a hub, a rim and an inflatable tyre, in which the hub is situated around a rotation axle of the wheel, a compressor which is situated substantially inside the hub for compressing outside air, provided with an inlet for taking in air at atmospheric pressure and an outlet for delivering air at an increased pressure; a drive for driving the compressor, in which the drive is movable with respect to the rotation axle, in particular rotatable, more particularly rotatable in a direction opposite to that of the hub; an air reservoir for storing the air at increased pressure, in which the air reservoir is situated inside the rim of the wheel; a connection for connecting the outlet of the compressor to the air reservoir of the inflatable tyre of the wheel.

Abstract: System for inflating a tire of a wheel, configured to be build inside or onto a hub of a vehicle, comprising a stationary section and a rotary section wherein the stationary section comprises a first clutch part, wherein the rotary section comprises a second clutch part, configured to selectively engage the first clutch part; an actuator, a driving unit, a pumping unit, and a housing, for housing at least the pumping unit, wherein the housing and the pumping unit are arranged to move together with movement of a wheel, in particular rotate together with the wheel.
