Abstract: A sensing sealant liquid container for repairing an inflatable article, preferably a tyre, comprises a first portion produced by injection moulding and a second portion produced by injection moulding, the first and the second portion being connected to each other to delimit a volume inside which a sealant liquid is retained, an outlet tube for the sealant liquid when the container is pressurized and a sensor for verifying the functional connection of the tube to the inflatable article, and at least one track electrically connected to the sensor and co-moulded on one of the first and the second portion, the track defining a contact releasable electrical connection.

Abstract: A sealant liquid container for repairing an inflatable article, preferably a tire, includes a casing defining an inner volume for a sealant liquid, an inlet port for the inlet of a pressurized gas into the inner volume, and an outlet port for the injection of the sealant liquid following pressurization of the inlet port. The container further includes a closing unit configurable between a closing position in which the sealant liquid is retained in the inner volume and an opening position reached following pressurization of the inlet port in which the inlet port and the outlet port are connected by the inner volume. In particular, the container further includes a second inlet port connected to the outlet port in parallel to the first inlet port and a duct for connecting the second inlet port to the outlet port and surrounded by the inner volume.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for charging a battery are disclosed. The apparatus includes a LED member that includes a single LED that is suitable for emitting light of different colours, each colour corresponding to a different operating status of the apparatus, and an acoustic signalling device that is suitable for emitting an acoustic signal indicating a malfunction of the apparatus or the battery. The method includes a first battery heating and desulphation step during which the battery is supplied with current pulses having a maximum value that is considerably lower than the maximum value of the charging current in a subsequent second constant current charging step, each current pulse being generated when the current absorbed by the battery after the delivery of a previous current pulse falls below a minimum preset value.

Abstract: A disposable canister filled with sealant liquid has an inner closure for retaining the sealant liquid inside the canister; a compressed-air inlet conduit; an outlet conduit for receiving the sealant liquid when the closure is in an open position; a first portion having one of the inlet and outlet conduits; and a second portion; the first and second portions being joined by a weld to form a tank which holds the sealant liquid in a ready-for-use position by means of the closure.

Abstract: A container for sealant liquid to repair an inflatable article, preferably pneumatic, comprises a shell defining an inner volume for a sealant liquid, an inlet port for introduction of a gas under pressure into the inner volume, an outlet port for injection of the sealant liquid after pressurisation of the inlet port and a flexible tube connected to the outlet port. The container also comprises a case detachable from the shell and surrounding the flexible tube when it is connected to the shell.

In particular, the inlet port and the outlet port are on opposing sides with respect to the inner volume.
