A method for the weight-dependent control of the internal pressure of a supporting body loaded by a weight load or payload, wherein the internal pressure is produced by means of an electric-motor-driven compressor, and the weight load or payload which is present and which acts on a supporting body in the form of a mass munder the effect of acceleration due to gravity g is determined in that a reduction and a subsequent increase in the internal pressure take place, wherein the increase in the internal pressure causes the position of an application point of the weight load or payload to change by a position difference ΔZ, wherein:

Method for the weight-dependent control of the internal pressure of a supporting body loaded by a weight load or a payload

The invention relates to a device () for transporting compressed air and/or sealant into a pneumatic vehicle tire, comprising at least one gas connection () for connecting to at least one compressed-air source (), at least one sealant connection () for connecting to at least one sealant container (), at least two channels, wherein a first channel is a sealant transport channel () for transporting a sealant dispersion from the sealant connection into a pneumatic vehicle tire and a second channel is a compressed-air transport channel () for transporting compressed air to the sealant connection or to the sealant transport channel, wherein the sealant dispersion comprises sealant particles and compressed air as dispersion matrix, characterized in that the device has a movable switchover element (), wherein the movable switchover element can be moved in the direction of the sealant connection by means of a compressed-air flow coming from the gas connection and has a severing portion () for severing a seal. The invention also relates to a portable/transportable system () and to corresponding methods and corresponding uses.

Apparatus for transporting compressed air and/or sealant in a vehicle tire and portable/transportable system for sealing and inflating vehicle tires

A method for sealing and inflating inflatable articles, in particular for sealing and inflating motor vehicle tires, wherein, by means of a compressor which is driven preferably by means of an electric motor, a sealing and pumping pressure is generated, wherein, by means of the sealing and pumping pressure, via a valve and distributor device for sealant and compressed gas and via compressed-air and sealant hoses between valve and distributor device and an entry valve or an inlet nozzle of the inflatable article, a sealant situated in a sealant vessel connected to the valve and distributor device is conveyed into the inflatable article and, at the same time, the inflatable article is inflated to a predefined operating pressure, wherein, by configuration of the corresponding parameters, of the sealant and of the device, in or downstream of the entry valve/the inlet nozzle, the sealant is at least partially atomized to form an aerosol by virtue of the sealant or the sealant-air mixture being converted, in the entry valve or in the inlet nozzle, into a turbulent flow with a Reynolds number R&#x2265;2300.

Method and device for sealing and inflating inflatable articles, and sealing agent

A device for sealing and inflating motor vehicle tires, wherein the device has, in a housing, a compressor which is driven by a motor, preferably an electric motor, and which serves for generating the sealing or pump pressure, and the device has a connector for a sealant container, a valve and distributor unit for sealant and pressurized gas, and furthermore connecting means such as hoses and lines, and also switching, control and display devices for the operation of the device, wherein the device furthermore comprises a manually actuatable pressure discharge valve for decreasing the tire pressure, wherein the pressure discharge valve is configured such that, when the sealant container is connected and/or during the delivery of sealant from the sealant container into the tire, an actuation, or a dissipation of the pressure, is prevented.

Apparatus for sealing and inflating motor vehicle tires

Devices for sealing and inflating inflatable objects, in particular for sealing and inflating motor vehicle tires, wherein the devices have as a source of compressed gas a compressor unit, which is formed as a reciprocating piston compressor driven by a slider crank mechanism and has a piston moved in an oscillating manner in a cylinder, and wherein the piston and the cylinder delimit a compression chamber and the cylinder is closed on the output side by a cylinder head with an outlet valve.
