Abstract:
Sealing fluid container assembly (3), connectable to a compressor assembly and to a control circuit of the compressor assembly, has a connecting unit (25) defining a releasable connection to the compressor assembly; and a connecting device (12) for injecting sealing fluid into an inflatable article, and which cooperates releasably with a valve (V) of the inflatable article. More specifically, the container assembly (3) has a sensor carried by the connecting device (12); and at least one electric contact (33) connected to the sensor (12) and cooperating with an electric terminal (24) to transmit a signal from the sensor (12) to the control device when the connecting device (12) is connected to the valve (V); the sensor (12) having a first and a second terminal (40, 39) designed to be short-circuited directly by the valve (V).
Abstract:
Sealing composition for repairing tyres comprising: 15 to 80% of natural latex, 5 to 50% of synthetic latex, 10 to 60% of a glycol selected from ethylene glycol and propylene glycol and 0.05 to 5% of a mineral chosen from a phyllosilicate and silica having an average granulometric distribution in the range between 5 and 95 nm.
Abstract:
A kit for repairing and inflating inflatable items comprises a housing, a compressor assembly housed within the housing, a connecting device having an inlet connected to the compressor assembly and a seat adapted to be fluidically connected to a container assembly for a sealing liquid and to the inlet, a valve configured to be opened automatically when the container assembly is connected to the connection device and elastically maintained in a first position such as to fluidically disconnect the inlet from the seat when the container assembly is disconnected from the connecting device, and a flexible tube fluidically connected to the compressor assembly. In particular, the connecting device comprises an outlet fluidically connected to the valve so as to be fluidically connected to the inlet when the valve is in the first position, and in that the flexible tube is connected to the outlet.
Abstract:
A kit for repairing and inflating inflatable articles has a compressor assembly; a canister assembly containing sealing fluid; and releasable connecting means defining an assembly direction and for connecting the compressor assembly to the canister assembly. The kit has a control device for controlling turn-on of the compressor assembly, and at least one movable electric terminal connected to the control device and loaded elastically into a predetermined position; and the canister assembly has a sensor, and at least one electric contact connected to the sensor and cooperating with the movable electric terminal to transmit a signal from the sensor to the control device when the canister assembly is connected to an inflatable article; the movable electric terminal being designed to exert force on the canister assembly to move the canister assembly in the assembly direction when the releasable connecting means are released.
Abstract:
A kit for repairing and inflating inflatable articles, comprises an electric compressor unit; a container of sealing fluid connectable to the compressor unit; a plug for connecting the compressor unit to a power outlet; electronic control means connected to the plug and to the compressor unit; and an electronic switch connected to the electronic control means and for transmitting a control signal to activate the compressor unit. In particular, the electronic control means is designed to only activate the compressor unit when the control signal is received after a power signal transmitted when the plug is connected to the power outlet.

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, a closure unit configurable between a closed position, in which the sealant liquid is held in the inner volume and an open position reached after pressurisation of the inlet port, in which the inlet port and the outlet port are connected by means of the inner volume. In particular, the inlet port and the outlet port are on opposing sides with respect to the inner volume.
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.
