  • TIRE INFLATION SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20240059106
    Abstract: In one aspect, a rotary union for a wheel end system including a wheel hub having a passageway. The rotary union includes a pressurized air receiver configured to be mounted to a vehicle spindle, an air inlet of the pressurized air receiver, a pressurized air distributor rotatable around an axis relative to the pressurized air receiver, and an air outlet of the pressurized air distributor. The pressurized air distributor is configured to be mounted to the wheel hub and rotate therewith. The rotary union further includes a seal axially spaced from the air inlet so that the seal and the air inlet are offset from one another along with the vehicle spindle. The seal is shiftable from a disengaged configuration to an engaged configuration to permit pressurized air received at the air inlet of the pressurized air receiver to flow to the air outlet of the pressurized air distributor.
