Title: James A Lynch - Innovator in Cargo Dunnage Technology

Introduction

James A Lynch is a notable inventor based in Ripley, TN (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of cargo management through his innovative designs. His work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and functionality of cargo dunnage systems.

Latest Patents

James A Lynch holds a patent for an inflation/deflation valve for cargo dunnage. This valve assembly is designed to improve the operation of dunnage bags. In one embodiment, the valve diaphragm is mounted on a shaft and supported by a mounting bar. This design allows the valve diaphragm to be moved from a closed position to an open position with a simple axial push on the valve shaft. The valve shaft is retained in the mounting bar, and its diameter is enlarged at the end distant from the valve diaphragm. This feature generates a frictional force fit or lock in the open position, facilitating the removal of air from the bag. The valve can be released from the friction lock by the air pressure of a recharged bag or by manually moving the valve diaphragm and shaft axially toward the open end of the valve assembly. An alternate embodiment features a valve diaphragm mounted to a valve stem that is rotationally and axially moveably connected to the valve body. The valve can be frictionally locked in its open or closed position by rotating the valve stem no more than one quarter turn.
