摘要： An air maintenance tire and air pump assembly is provided including a tire and an elongate tubular air passageway enclosed within a flexing region of a tire sidewall. A plurality of check valve devices are spaced apart and positioned along the air passageway into multiple air passageway segments. A check valve membrane opens to allow pressurized air to directionally pass through the check valve device from an upstream passageway segment to a downstream passageway segment and closes to prevent air from passing in an opposite direction through the check valve from the downstream segment to the upstream segment.

摘要： A self-inflating tire assembly includes an air tube connected to a tire and defining an air passageway, the air tube being composed of a flexible material operative to allow an air tube segment opposite a tire footprint to flatten, closing the passageway, and resiliently unflatten into an original configuration. The air tube is sequentially flattened by the tire footprint in a direction opposite to a tire direction of rotation to pump air along the passageway to an inlet device for exhaust from the passageway or to an outlet device for direction into the tire cavity.

摘要： A shock absorbing system includes an air container, a power source to supply a high-pressure air into the air container, a plurality of shock absorbers each provided with at least one air spring, a central controller including a plurality of control units each connected between the air container and a respective one of the shock absorbers, and a drive unit to control operation of the central controller in a wireless way. Thus, each of the shock absorbers can be lifted to lift the chassis of the car so as to prevent the chassis from being worn out or broken due to a violent hit when the car passes a rugged road and can be lowered to lower the chassis of the car so as to enhance maneuverability of the car.
