Definitions

  • twist valves for inflation or deflation.
  • clockwise and counterclockwise twisting of a ventilated cap with no other means of controlling airflow into or out of the mattress.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional illustration of a valve according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a top perspective view of the valve of FIG. 1 in which the barrel is in a first position according to an embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 3 is a top perspective view of the valve of FIG. 1 in which the barrel is in a second position according to an embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 4 is a front view of the valve of FIG. 1 in which the barrel is in the first position according to an embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 5 is a front view of the valve of FIG. 1 in which the barrel is in the second position according to an embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 6 is a partial top perspective view of the valve of FIG. 1 in which the cap is detached from the barrel;
  • FIG. 7 is a top perspective view of the cap according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • a valve 10 includes a cap 20 having an interior chamber 30.
  • Cap 20 is disposed on the exterior of an inflatable body 25 and has internal bayonet fasteners 40 that engage with at least one groove 55 on an outer surface of a barrel 50 having an interior chamber 60 allowing the cap to rotate about the barrel.
  • the cap 20 may be configured to couple with an air pump (not shown) via, for example, a groove 70 around the perimeter of the cap to aid in inflation of the inflatable body 25.
  • the valve 10 further includes a check valve 80 disposed within the interior of the inflatable body 25 that permits fluid flow into the inflatable mattress via the barrel 50 and inlets 90 on top of the cap and prevents fluid flow out of the inflatable mattress via the cap and barrel.
  • the valve 10 further includes a boat portion 100 closed at one end by the check valve 80, disposed within the interior of the inflatable body 25 and having an interior chamber 110, which is concentric with chamber 60 and in which a portion of the barrel 50 is situated. As best shown in FIGS.
  • both the boat portion 100 and barrel 50 have bypass holes 120, 130 that, through rotation of the barrel 50 relative to the boat portion, can be aligned so as to permit fluid communication between the interior of the inflatable body 25 and the interior chamber 60 of the barrel or unaligned so as to prevent fluid communication between the interior of the inflatable mattress and the barrel interior.
  • clockwise rotation of the cap 20 around the barrel 50 allows the user to position the cap in a closed/lowered position in which the barrel interior chamber 60 is fluidly sealed off from the ambient 65. Additional clockwise rotation of the cap 20 will cause, as a result of engagement of the bayonet fasteners 40 with the barrel 50, the barrel to rotate clockwise to a predetermined first position thereby aligning the barrel bypass holes 130 with the boat bypass holes 120. Consequently, fluid communication between the barrel interior chamber 60 and the interior of the inflatable body 25 is allowed without requiring fluid to pass into the inflatable mattress via the check valve 80.
  • the user can rotate the barrel 50 by applying rotational pressure to handles in the form of wing elements 140 coupled to the barrel, and the boat portion 100 has stop elements 150 formed thereon that aid in the alignment of the bypass holes 120, 130.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une valve comprenant un capuchon conçu pour être disposée sur l'extérieur d'un corps gonflable. Le capuchon comprend un ou plusieurs dispositifs de fixation. Un cylindre est accouplé au capuchon et comporte une première chambre intérieure. Le capuchon comporte au moins une entrée permettant une communication fluidique entre la première chambre intérieure et l'environnement ambiant. Le cylindre comporte une surface externe sur laquelle une première rainure est formée, la première rainure étant conçue pour venir en prise avec le ou les dispositif(s) de fixation permettant au capuchon de tourner autour du cylindre entre une position de bouchon ouverte dans laquelle la première chambre intérieure est en communication fluidique avec l'environnement ambiant et une position de capuchon fermée dans laquelle la première chambre intérieure est isolée de manière fluidique de l'environnement ambiant. Un clapet anti-retour est accouplé au cylindre et est conçu pour être disposé à l'intérieur du corps gonflable.
