Abstract
A tire pump includes a reciprocal member having a first end and a second end, and a handle having a first end and a second end. The first end of the handle is mounted on the second end of the reciprocal member. The handle includes a switch member mounted on the first end thereof. The switch member may be operated by a user's one hand only so that the switch member may be moved between a first position where the second end of the reciprocal member is fixed on the first end of the handle, and a second position where the second end of the reciprocal member may be retracted into the first end of the handle.

6736618 - Pump for easy attachment to bicycle

A pump includes a cylinder, a tube, a hollow piston, a nozzle, a hollow handle and an elastic element. The tube is partially and movably inserted in the cylinder. The hollow piston is in fluid communication with the tube and movably received in the cylinder for pumping. The nozzle is in fluid communication with the tube, and includes an end face in compliance with a first external structure. The hollow handle is mounted on the cylinder between a first mode preventing their relative movement and a second mode allowing their relative movement. The hollow handle includes an open end through which the tube is inserted and a closed end with an internal face and an external face in compliance with a second external structure. The elastic element is compressed between an end of the cylinder and the closed end of the hollow handle.

7063521 - Collapsible handgrip for inflator

An inflator includes a hollow handgrip and an air cylinder having a shaft. One end of the shaft is connected with a piston in the cylinder and the other end of the shaft is provided with a stud extending out of the cylinder. A bottom wall and an opening are arranged respectively at opposite ends of the handgrip. A tapped hole is formed in the bottom wall for locking the stud. Through the opening, the cylinder may be stored in the handgrip to lessen the volume of the inflator. When using the inflator, a user draws the cylinder out of the handgrip and lock the stud to the tapped hole through the bottom end of the handgrip to thereby extend the shaft. Air is pumped out through an outlet of the cylinder by reciprocal axial motion of the shaft.
