Love it!.. integrated with an over-pressure bleed valve in the tire, so it can also lower pressure if needed. |
|
| |
A tire's pressure can change by 1 psi for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit of temperature change. And when you start running tires down a hot asphalt highway, they can heat up fast. |

Yes! Different settings for snow or muddy conditions where tire pressure is a big traction factor. +++ |

Now I can imagine someone coming out of the house, noticing they got a flat tire overnight.. He jacks the car up, puts it in gear and lets it pump itself up to pressure. |

I thought we hit the jackpot when
my brother and I invented this on
the phone a few months ago.
Then I looked at uspto.gov [link],
and
realized we we're too late. |

So, in theory, if the hole was not too large, you would never get a flat tire as long as you kept moving........ |
|
| |
How big a weight would be necessary to prevent the hubcap from spinning relative to the ground? |
|
| |
If the weight is offset, what keeps it from vibrating the wheel, when the shaft is locked and the speed is high? |
