Mental disorder analysis apparatus, mental disorder analysis method, and program

Provide a sealing device with which simple and reliable operation can be performed. When stored, a liquid agent container, in which a sealing agent is contained, is temporarily held above a injection unit. When the liquid agent container is forcibly pressed downward in use, the upper end of a pressing jig penetrates through an aluminum seal into the container, and the sealing agent flows out to a compressor unit is activated and compressed air is supplied into the liquid agent container to place the pressurized sealing agent into a pneumatic tire through a joint hose.

Sealing device

A sealing and pump-up device () includes: a liquid agent container () containing a sealing agent (); an injection unit () that is connected to an outlet () of the liquid agent container () and has a liquid pressurization and supply chamber () and a jig insertion hole (); a jig () that by insertion into the jig insertion hole () pierces an aluminum seal () by means of a piercing member () and closes off the jig insertion hole (); and a leading end portion (), of an insertion portion (), having a step (A) that catches on an edge (B) of a jig insertion hole () before the jig () that has been inserted into the jig insertion hole () reaches a piercing position, when the aluminum seal () is pierced.

Sealing and pump-up device

When a press jig is inserted into a jig insertion hole, an O-ring attached to the outer peripheral surface of the press jig is prevented from being caught on an air supply port opening to the inner peripheral surface of the jig insertion hole and damaged. In a sealing pump-up device, the opening diameter of an air supply portopening to the inner peripheral surface of a jig insertion holeprovided at one end of an air supply pathis set smaller than the strand diameters of an O-ringand an O-ring. Consequently, the width at the edge of the air supply portson which the O-ringsmay possibly be caught can be made sufficiently smaller than the strand diameter of the O-rings. When the O-ringspass on the inner peripheral side of the air supply portsin a state of press contact with the inner peripheral surface of the jig insertion hole, the amount by which the O-ringsare deformed (restored) in order to swell to the outer peripheral side so that a portion thereof fits into the air supply ports, can be reduced sufficiently.

Sealing pump-up device

To prevent a burr, produced from the joint portion by welding between a liquid agent container and an injection unit, from interfering with a boring member inserted into a jig communication passage when the boring member is inserted into the jig communication passage to prevent the obstruction of the piercing action through a sealing member by the edge of the boring member. In the sealing pump-up device, a tubular inner annular memberis integrally formed on the inner peripheral side of a joined portionin an injection unitso as to surround, from an outer peripheral side, a boring memberheld in a jig insertion hole, and a burr housing unitconsisting of an almost cylindrical space is formed between the outer annular memberof a liquid containerand the tubular inner annular member, whereby it is possible to guide the tip end side of a burr, extending from the joint portion between the outer annular memberand a joined portiontoward the inner peripheral side, from moving toward the boring memberside of the burrby means of the tubular inner annular member

A sealing/pump-up device for tire that not only ensures the storability of sealing agent but also realizes rapid supply of sealing agent into a pneumatic tire. By insertion of insert part (A) of jig () in jig insertion aperture () of sealing device (), aluminum seal () is burst through by means of boring member () to thereby drive the same in the container. As the distal end of the insert part (A) locates in the vicinity of upper wall surface within liquid agent container (), a compressor unit is operated to thereby supply compressed air into the liquid agent container (). As the end portion of first passage () provided in the jig () lies in a position superior to the liquid surface of sealing agent (), the compressed air realizes rapid supply of the sealing agent () into a pneumatic tire without surfacing in the form of bubbles through the sealing agent ().

Sealing/pump-up device

To be able to simply carry out an operation of repairing a punctured pneumatic tire, to be able to inject a necessary amount of a sealing agent firmly into the pneumatic tire even when the apparatus is used in an inclined state and to prevent clogging of the sealing agent and leakage of a liquid by being pressurized. A pump up apparatusis an apparatus for injecting a sealing agent in a liquid state into a punctured pneumatic tire, thereafter, supplying compressed air into the pneumatic tireto elevate an inner pressure thereof. The pump up apparatusincludes a sealing agent vesselaccommodating the sealing agent, a sealing agent injecting pumpfor sucking the sealing agent from the sealing agent vesselto feed it to the pneumatic tire, and a compressorfor pressurizing and sending air to the pneumatic tire. When the pneumatic tireis punctured, the sealing agent injecting pumpsucks the sealing agent in the liquid state from the sealing agent vesselto inject it to the pneumatic tire, therefore, inside of the sealing agent vesselis not pressurized.

Sealing agent injecting apparatus, sealing agent injecting method and sealing pump up apparatus

To reliably supply a predetermined amount of sealing agent into a pneumatic tire even if the device is inclined and after the predetermined amount of sealing agent is supplied, to automatically start feeding compressed air into the pneumatic tire. In pumping device, when compressed air is supplied to air chamber, internal pressure of air chamberincreases, and as the internal pressure of air chamberrises, a contained volume of air chamberincreases while a contained volume of liquid containerdecreases. Thus, sealing agentin an amount corresponding to the amount corresponding to the reduction in the contained volume of liquid container, is forcibly discharged from discharge outletand the discharged sealing agentis injected into tire. In pumping device, when the air chamberexpands enough to have a predetermined amount of sealing agent to be discharged from the liquid container, the air discharge openingopens toward the air chamberto allow the air chamberto communicate with the inside of tire. Thus, compressed air in the air chambercan be supplied into tirevia the air discharge outlet, bypass hoseand joint hose
