  • Publication number: 20260153176
    Abstract: A valve connector for various air valves comprises a housing with a sliding slot along a virtual reference axis and a clamping device disposed therein. The clamping device includes an American pushing seat, a French pushing seat, a first clamping jaw with a first clamping portion, at least one second clamping jaw with a second clamping portion, and a pushing member in the American receiving hole. The clamping device alternates between an American position, where the first clamping portion is close to the axis, and a French position, where the second clamping portion is close to the axis. This design enables ease of operation and effective clamping performance.

  • Patent number: 12638109
    Abstract: A valve connector includes a body and a control component. The body has a through hole divided into a first receiving section and a second receiving section. The control component has a body portion with a guide hole connecting to the through hole. The body portion has an abutting end and a control end exposed at the second end for attachment to an inflating device. The control component can move relative to the body, with the abutting end selectively entering the first receiving section to abut against the core rod of the Schrader valve, and with a sealing ring selectively abutting the second receiving section, enabling easy detachment of the valve from the valve connector.

  • Patent number: 12292042
    Abstract: A floor pump includes an inflation device having a pump, a seat, and a pressure gauge. The seat is connected to a lower edge of the pump. The pressure gauge is connected between two ends of the pump. A base is pivotably connected to the seat and is movable between an extended position and a first folded position. The base includes first and second footrest portions located on two opposite sides of the seat. When the base is in the extended position, both the first footrest portion and the second footrest portion are not located below the pressure gauge. When the base is in the first folded position, the first footrest portion is located below the pressure gauge.
