A portable inflation device having a pump, a control device, a user interface, and an inflation indicator. The pump includes an elongated hose with an inflation nozzle. The control device controls operation of the pump and is configured to sense a current pressure of an object, calculate the estimated remaining time to inflate the object to a target pressure, and display the remaining time using the inflation indicator. The user interface is configured to allow a user to enter the target pressure into the control device.

A tire sealant bottle assembly that includes a bottle, a nozzle, and a cap is disclosed. The bottle is designed to hold tire sealant therein. The nozzle removably couples to the bottle and includes a nozzle base, a nozzle head integral with the nozzle base, and a channel extending through the nozzle. The channel includes a substantially cylindrical portion at the terminating end of the nozzle head that is at least 5 mm in length and has an inner diameter between approximately 7 and 8 mm. The cap may be a hollow valve core tool cap having an open first end, a closed second end, and a valve core removal tool extending from the second end away from the first end.

An aerosol tire sealant and inflator assembly includes an aerosol bottle, a lid, an actuator, and a hose. The aerosol bottle has pressurized tire sealant and air housed therein. The lid has an actuator opening extending through the lid and a sloped locking lip extending from an inner wall. The locking lip includes a first portion and a second portion. The actuator is positioned within the actuator opening and rotatably coupled to the lid between a closed position and an open position. The actuator has a coupling and an actuator tab engaged with the first portion of the locking lip when the actuator is in the closed position and engaged with the second portion of the locking lip when the actuator is in the open position. The hose includes a coupling configured to couple to the actuator and a coupling configured to couple to a tire stem.

A tire puncture repair apparatus may include a handle, a puncture repair screw, and an integral neck between the handle and the puncture repair screw. The puncture repair screw may include a screw head, a cylindrical shaft extending from the screw head opposite the neck, a partially threaded and solid cone that uniformly narrows from the shaft to a tip opposite the shaft, and a conic-helical thread coiled about the cone between the tip and the shaft. The diameter of the shaft may be approximately equal to the diameter of the cone at the widest point of the cone. The thread on the cone may include an angled ridge and may be coiled around the cone from the intersection of the shaft and the cone to before tip of the cone.

The present disclosure describes a structure for a portable tire inflator that includes a triangular housing comprising a triangular face, a triangular back, two sides extending between the triangular face and the triangular back on first and second sides of the triangular face and back, and a support base on a third side of the triangular face and back extending between the triangular face and the triangular back, a pump motor within the housing. The inflator may be configured such that a majority of the total weight of the portable tire inflator is positioned between the middle of the triangular face and the base. The tire inflator may also include a reflective border on at least two of three edges of the triangular face and an air pressure indicator responsive to air pressure within the air hose, the air pressure indicator visible on an external surface of the housing.

The present disclosure describes a structure for a wall-mountable tire inflator that includes a housing having a variable pressure pump motor and rechargeable battery therein, a face, a backside opposite the face, four sides extending between the face and the backside, and an opening sized to receive a post of an air hose support tray. The backside of the housing may include at least one wall mounting element adapted to couple with a wall mount structure extending from a wall. The tire inflator may also include a coiled air hose extending from the housing, a light bar pivotally coupled to the housing. The detachable air hose support tray may include an annular channel on a side surrounding a raised central projection, a post extending radially from the support tray, and a wall mounting aperture extending through a portion of the support tray.

A license plate frame that allows for removable coupling of elements to the license plate frame. The license plate frame may include four borders that each include an outer frame lip and an inner frame lip extending outwardly from a rear surface of the license plate frame. The inner frame lip may include a plurality of equally sized notches adjacent one another. A removable element that includes a pin and a channel is removably coupled to the license plate frame by placing the pin within one of the plurality of notches and placing a portion of the outer frame lip within the channel of the removable element. The removable element may be moved by lifting the pin out of the notch and sliding the outer frame lip through the channel of the removable element before inserting the pin into a different notch.
