Abstract

A compressor for a device for sealing pneumatic tires by means of a sealing liquid includes a first bayonet portion and a second bayonet portion. The first bayonet portion includes an air outlet port which is adapted such that it can be coupled to a second bayonet portion with an air inlet port of a sealing liquid container of the device so that the first bayonet portion and the second bayonet portion form a bayonet lock and the air inlet port is connected to the air outlet port. The compressor comprises a first clamping portion adapted to clamp the second bayonet portion in the bayonet lock.

Claims (24)

1 . A compressor for a device for sealing pneumatic tires by means of a sealing liquid, wherein the compressor comprises:

a first bayonet portion with an air outlet port;

a second bayonet portion, the first bayonet portion is adapted to be coupled to the second bayonet portion with an air inlet port of a sealing liquid container of the device so that the first bayonet portion and the second bayonet portion form a bayonet lock and the air inlet port is connected to the air outlet port,

wherein the compressor has a first clamping portion, which is adapted to clamp the second bayonet portion in the bayonet lock,

wherein the first clamping portion is formed by two opposing first walls, which are configured such that the second bayonet portion is clamped between the two opposing first walls in the bayonet lock,

wherein the two opposing first walls are separated from one another by second walls and do not clamp the second bayonet portion in the bayonet lock, and

wherein two of the opposing first walls and two of the second walls are each separated from one another by slots.

2 . The compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the first clamping portion is configured to radially clamp the second bayonet portion in the bayonet lock.

3 . The compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the first clamping portion is formed on a cylindrical seat within the compressor.

4 . The compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the first bayonet portion is configured as a cylindrical receptacle of the second bayonet portion and with radially projecting bayonet elements.

5 . A device for sealing pneumatic tires by a sealing liquid, wherein the device comprises the compressor according to claim 1 and the sealing liquid container with the second bayonet portion.

6 . The device according to claim 5 , wherein the first bayonet portion and the second bayonet portion form the bayonet lock, the air inlet port is connected to the air outlet port, and the first clamping portion clamps the second bayonet portion in the bayonet lock.

7 . The device according to claim 5 , wherein the second bayonet portion has a second clamping portion corresponding to the first clamping portion, which second clamping portion is formed by at least one radial projection of the second bayonet portion.

8 . The device according to claim 5 , wherein the second bayonet portion is formed by a cylindrical neck of the sealing liquid container with first recesses running in a circumferential direction of the neck and second recesses running in a longitudinal direction of the neck.

9 . The device according to claim 8 , wherein the first recesses are configured as elongated holes and/or the second recesses are configured as grooves.

10 . A device for sealing pneumatic tires by a sealing liquid, wherein the device comprises:

a compressor including:

a first bayonet portion with an air outlet;

a second bayonet portion, the first bayonet portion is configured to be coupled to the second bayonet portion with an air inlet port of a sealing liquid container of the device so that the first bayonet portion and the second bayonet portion form a bayonet lock and the air inlet port is connected to the air outlet port,

wherein the compressor has a first clamping portion, which is configured to clamp the second bayonet portion in the bayonet lock,

wherein the second bayonet portion is formed by a cylindrical neck of the sealing liquid container with first recesses running in a circumferential direction of the neck and second recesses running in a longitudinal direction of the neck,

wherein the first recesses have a ramp-shaped profile along the circumferential direction from a receiving portion of the second bayonet portion for receiving the bayonet elements to a third clamping portion of the second bayonet portion for clamping the bayonet elements in the first recesses.

11 . The device according to claim 10 , wherein the third clamping portion has surfaces of increased roughness with at least a mean roughness value of Ra8 or Ra9, which clamp the bayonet elements.

12 . The device according to claim 10 , wherein the ramp-shaped profile from the receiving portion to the third clamping portion is stepless.
