Abstract

The present invention discloses a built-in tire pressure monitoring and alarming device. A housing is provided therein with a reference chamber and an inlet pipe extended from the reference chamber to a valve stem, and a reference chamber valve capable of sealing and opening the inlet pipe is mounted within the inlet pipe. A throttle core of the reference chamber valve is directly resisted against a core bar of a throttle core. During the tire is inflated, the throttle core is pushed open, the core bar of the throttle core is pushed against the valve core, and then the reference chamber valve is opened so that the reference chamber is inflated. After the inflation is accomplished, the throttle core is restored and the reference chamber valve is closed so that the reference chamber is sealed.

Claims

1. A built-in tire pressure monitoring and alarming device, comprising a housing and a valve stem communicated with the housing, a throttle core being provided at one end of the valve stem, wherein the housing is provided therein with a reference chamber, an alarming signal transmitting module and a battery, a part of the wall of the reference chamber is an elastic metal diaphragm, a cathode contact of the alarming signal transmitting module is electrically connected to a cathode of a power supply while an anode contact thereof is close to and directly faces the elastic metal diaphragm of the reference chamber, and the elastic metal diaphragm of the reference chamber is electrically connected to the anode of the battery;

an inlet pipe is extended from the reference chamber to the valve stem, and a reference chamber valve capable of sealing and opening the inlet pipe is mounted within the inlet pipe;

an inward boss is provided on the inner wall of the inlet pipe into which a valve body of the reference chamber valve is screwed through threads, a sealing collar is provided between the valve body and the boss, a valve core of the reference chamber valve is inserted into the middle of the valve body and extended out from a front end of the valve body with a nut being screwed on the end portion of the extended end, an annular groove having a sealing ring mounted therein is extended outward from an edge position of the nut, a flange is provided at a position opposing to the valve core so that the sealing collar is clamped between the nut and the flange, and an end face of the sealing ring runs beyond the edge of the flange with the exceeded portion being opposite to a front end face of the valve body; and

, the valve core of the reference chamber valve is directly resisted against a core bar of a throttle core or against the core bar of the throttle core via an ejector rod, a spring being provided between the valve core and the valve body, the spring applying a force onto the valve core so that the edge of the sealing ring running beyond the flange can be tightly pressed on the front end face of the valve body.

2. The built-in tire pressure monitoring and alarming device according to claim 1, wherein the housing is divided into upper and lower portions which are in threaded connection to each other.
