Abstract

Provided are an internal and external dual-purpose air pump, an inflatable product and a lifting handle device; the internal and external dual-purpose air pump includes a machine core, including a housing having an accommodating chamber and an inflating device arranged in the accommodating chamber; the housing is provided with an air outlet and an air suction inlet respectively in the bottom and top ends, and the air outlet and the air suction inlet can both communicate with the accommodating chamber; and the housing is slidably connected with a buckling member, which can move relative to the housing, thereby the machine core is buckled into or detached from a product to be inflated through the buckling member; the inflating device works to send air flow out through the air outlet and/or suction air flow through the air suction inlet. The inflatable product includes the internal and external dual-purpose air pump.

Claims (25)

1. A dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally, comprising a machine core, wherein the machine core comprises a housing that comprises an accommodating chamber and an inflating device arranged in the accommodating chamber;

an air outlet and an air suction inlet are provided in a bottom end and a top end of the housing, respectively, and the air outlet and the air suction inlet both are in communication with the accommodating chamber; and the housing is slidably connected with a buckling member, and the buckling member is able to move with respect to the housing, so that the machine core is, through the buckling member, buckled into or detached from a product to be inflated; and

the inflating device works to send air flow out through the air outlet and/or suction air flow through the air suction inlet.

2. The dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally according to claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises an upper housing and a lower housing, wherein the upper housing is snap-fitted with the lower housing, and both of them form the accommodating chamber; and

the air outlet is provided in a bottom end of the lower housing, and the air suction inlet is provided in a top end of the upper housing.

3. The dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally according to claim 2 , wherein the inflating device comprises an electric motor and a fan blade which is in transmission connection with the electric motor, wherein the electric motor is fixedly connected to the housing; and the electric motor drives the fan blade to rotate, so as to send the air flow out through the air outlet and/or suction the air flow through the air suction inlet.

4. The dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally according to claim 3 , wherein the electric motor is fixed through a motor bracket, and the motor bracket is connected between the upper housing and the lower housing; and

the fan blade is located on the upper housing and provided adjacent to the air suction inlet.

5. The dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally according to claim 4 , wherein the inflating device comprises a battery which supplies electric power to the electric motor,

wherein the battery is a disposable battery; or the battery is a rechargeable battery, and the inflating device comprises a circuit board and an electric interface, wherein the circuit board is configured to be electrically connected with the battery, and the electric interface is provided on an outer wall of the housing and configured to be electrically connected with the circuit board.

6. The dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally according to claim 3 , wherein the inflating device comprises a battery which supplies electric power to the electric motor,

wherein the battery is a disposable battery; or the battery is a rechargeable battery, and the inflating device comprises a circuit board and an electric interface, wherein the circuit board is configured to be electrically connected with the battery, and the electric interface is provided on an outer wall of the housing and configured to be electrically connected with the circuit board.

7. An inflatable product, comprising a product capsule body and the dual-purpose air pump which can be disposed internally or externally according to claim 1 , wherein the product capsule body is provided with a first inflation/deflation port; the first inflation/deflation port is configured to communicate with the air outlet or the air suction inlet; the product capsule body comprises an airbag and a body press-fitted on the airbag, and the body is provided with a second inflation/deflation port; and

the body is provided with grooves in an end portion away from the second inflation/deflation port.

8. The inflatable product according to claim 7 , wherein the machine core is able to be inserted into the body at an end away from the second inflation/deflation port, so that the air outlet is positioned to face the second inflation/deflation port and the air suction inlet is positioned back to the second inflation/deflation port, and that the buckling member is snap-fitted into the grooves, and the air outlet communicates with the second inflation/deflation port.

9. The inflatable product according to claim 8 , wherein an upper cap is provided at an end of the body away from the second inflation/deflation port, a sealing structure is provided between the upper cap and the body, wherein the sealing structure comprises a sealing groove and a sealing ring provided in the sealing groove; and

the sealing groove is provided in the body or the upper cap.

10. The inflatable product according to claim 7 , wherein the machine core is able to be inserted into the body at an end away from the second inflation/deflation port, so that the air suction inlet is positioned to face the second inflation/deflation port and the air outlet is positioned back to the second inflation/deflation port, and that the air suction inlet communicates with the second inflation/deflation port.

11. The inflatable product according to claim 10 , wherein an air flow guiding component configured to guide air flow is provided between the air suction inlet and the second inflation/deflation port, and during working, the air flow guiding component is inserted into the body.

12. The inflatable product according to claim 11 , wherein the body is provided with a check valve configured to open or close the second inflation/deflation port, and the check valve is opened only with a force exerted which is along a direction making the check valve away from an internal chamber of the body.

13. The inflatable product according to claim 12 , wherein a protruding portion is provided at an end portion of the air flow guiding component, wherein when the air flow guiding component is inserted into the body, the protruding portion pushes the check valve towards the direction away from the internal chamber of the body.

14. The inflatable product according to claim 12 , wherein a sealing gasket is provided between the check valve and the second inflation/deflation port.

15. The inflatable product according to claim 7 , wherein an upper cap is provided at an end of the body away from the second inflation/deflation port, a sealing structure is provided between the upper cap and the body, wherein the sealing structure comprises a sealing groove and a sealing ring provided in the sealing groove; and

the sealing groove is provided in the body or the upper cap.

16. The inflatable product according to claim 7 , wherein the inflatable product comprises inflating beds, inflatable sofas, inflatable boats or inflatable pools.
