  • Patent number: 5947172
    Abstract: An inflator device uses a compressed gas cylinder or cartridge for inflating a tire or the like having an inflator valve. It has an internally screwthreaded supply bore adapted to have screwed into it the neck of the cylinder or the cartridge closed by a capsule and at the bottom of which is provided a perforator surrounded by a supply seal. The supply bore communicates via an axial hole with a distribution bore, the communication being controlled by a selectively operated valve carried by a distributor moveable axially. The device further includes a cavity adapted to receive in sealed fashion the inflator valve of the tire or the like and communicating with the distribution bore. The seal is assured by a valve seal which has two coaxial circular parts joined by a transverse annular part. The valve seal is placed in the cavity with the annular part facing outwards and held in the cavity by a cap provided with a passage for the valve of the tire or the like.
