Abstract

This study focused on the preliminary study on function, working, design and fabricate of the one-way valve (inflator). The one-way valves are a common piece of instrumentation fittings which allows flow in one direction only. Tyre can lose air through normal driving or after hitting pot holes or curbs. Tyre lose 1 or 2 psi each month in the summer and rainy season. In this project, there are several issues to be solved, including long distances to get the workshop when a flat tyre occurs, then the idea come out to design this project. Besides that, when it comes to travelling by motorcycles, mishap and unwanted incidents such as tyre punctured, low air pressure in tyre are extremely common occur. The objective of this project is to develop a new tyre inflator system in order to make the operation easier, safer and more reliable. This project proposal is about waste exhaust gas that produce pressure from motorcycle engine will be used as the source to the tyre inflator and practical ways to pump tyre in emergency situation. At the end of this project, the fabrication of this product is achieve all the project objectives. Because the result obtain from the testing between air compressor and emergency tyres inflator is similarity. But the emergency tyre inflator will become very common in the near future if more detailed studies are carried out to allow this product to be widely used in the automotive industry.
