Abstract

An anti-jet joint structure of a connection hose of a vehicle air compressor contains: an accommodation box, an adhesive supply can, and a connection hose. The accommodation box accommodates the vehicle air compressor started by a power to produce air. The adhesive supply can accommodates chemical adhesive for repairing a tire, and the adhesive supply can includes an open segment and a supply hose. The connection hose includes a first joint and a second joint opposite to the first joint. The first joint is engaged with the supply hose, and the second joint is screwed with a gas nozzle of the tire. The second joint is the anti-jet joint structure and has a first connection assembly and a second assembly. The first connection assembly is connected with or is removed from the second connection assembly having different interior structures and volumes so as to mate with various tires.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An anti-jet joint structure of a connection hose for a vehicle air compressor, comprising:
a first connection assembly, and
a second assembly, the first connection assembly removably connected with the second connection assembly;
wherein the first connection assembly includes a first fitting sleeve and a base,
the first fitting sleeve having a chamber defined therein, a first opening defined on a first end of the first fitting sleeve, female threads formed on an inner wall of the first fitting sleeve, and a through hole defined on a second end of the first fitting sleeve, wherein a rib extends inward from the through hole, and the through hole communicates with the chamber;
the base includes a cylindrical room, a groove formed on an outer wall of the base, a stepped extension extending from the outer wall of the base away from the groove, a channel defined on in a center of the stepped extension and communicating with the cylindrical room, and a first seal ring fitted on the groove of the base;
the stepped extension of the base is inserted into the through hole from the first opening of the first fitting sleeve via the chamber and extends out of from the first fitting sleeve to fit with the connection hose,
wherein the second connection assembly includes: a second fitting sleeve and a valve bolt,
the second fitting sleeve including
a locating segment formed on a first end thereof and having male threads,
a threaded hole defined on a second end of the second fitting sleeve opposite the locating segment, and
a passage extending inside the first end of the second fitting sleeve, wherein a diameter of the passage is less than a diameter of the threaded hole, the second fitting sleeve further including
a first stepped shoulder defined between the threaded hole and the passage,
a second stepped shoulder extending away from the first stepped shoulder,
a stop shoulder extending away from the second stepped shoulder and having an aperture,
wherein the passage has a valve seat thereon,
a second opening formed on a distal end of the valve seat,
a conical fence formed on the second opening,
a circular slit defined between an outer wall of the valve seat and an inner wall of the locating segment, and
a cavity formed between the valve seat and the locating segment,
wherein the threaded hole, the passage, the aperture of the stop shoulder, the second opening of the valve seat, the circular slit, and the cavity are in communication with one another.

2. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a diameter A of the first stepped shoulder is greater than a diameter B of the second stepped shoulder, and the diameter B of the second stepped shoulder is greater than a diameter C of the aperture of the stop shoulder.

3. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the valve bolt is cylindrical and includes a knob formed on an end thereof, and the valve bolt includes multiple indentations arranged thereon and further includes a respective flange defined between any two adjacent indentations of the multiple indentations, each flange comprising a tab extending therefrom, and a recessed section is defined between the knob and the flanges.

4. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the valve bolt further includes a spring fitted from the knob to abut against the tab, and the valve bolt is accommodated into the passage from the threaded hole so that the spring contacts with the stop shoulder and is surrounded by the second stepped shoulder; wherein the valve bolt includes a cap fitted on the recessed section of the valve bolt, and the cap has a cone-shaped face formed on an outer wall of the cap and configured to abut against a connection portion of the conical fence and the stop shoulder.

5. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the valve bolt includes a locking disc engaged on the recessed section between the cap and the knob.

6. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the tab of the valve bolt moves in the passage of the first stepped shoulder.

7. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the valve bolt includes a washer having a bore and disposed in the threaded hole of the second fitting sleeve to abut against the first stepped shoulder; and a second seal ring is disposed in the locating segment of the second fitting sleeve, such that the second seal ring, the spring, the cap, the washer, and the locating segment of the second fitting sleeve are accommodated in the first connection assembly, wherein the locating segment is screwable with the first opening in which the base is received, the male threads of the locating segment screwable with the female threads of the first opening of the first fitting sleeve.

8. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the first fitting sleeve includes multiple recesses formed on a distal end of the first opening; at least one retainer is defined between the locating segment and the threaded hole of the second fitting sleeve, and the at least one retainer of the second fitting sleeve is retained with the multiple recesses of the first fitting sleeve.

9. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a diameter A of the first stepped shoulder is equal to a diameter B of the second stepped shoulder, and the diameter B of the second stepped shoulder is greater than a diameter C of the aperture of the stop shoulder.

10. The anti-jet joint structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a nut is accommodated in the second end of the second fitting sleeve opposite the locating segment, the nut comprising multiple teeth longitudinally formed on an outer wall thereof, wherein a respective one of multiple cutouts is defined between any two adjacent teeth, and the respective one cutout is engagable with a respective one of multiple defining wings of the second fitting sleeve, such that the nut is connected with the second fitting sleeve, wherein a limitation protrusion is formed on the second end of the second fitting sleeve opposite the locating segment so as to contact with an external fringe of the nut.
