  2. Self-sealing suction cup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-sealing_suction_cup

    The self-sealing suction cup is a suction cup that exerts a suction force only when it is in physical contact with an object. Unlike most other suction cups, it does not exert any suction force when it is not in contact with an object. [1] Its grasping ability is achieved entirely through passive means without the use of sensors, valves, or ...

    A transparent suction cup The pressure on a suction cup, as exerted by collisions of gas molecules, holds the suction cup in contact with the surface. One cup suction lifter. A suction cup, also known as a sucker, is a device or object that uses the negative fluid pressure of air or water to adhere to nonporous surfaces, creating a partial ...

    direct TPM sensor fitted in valve system, manufacturer VDO. In most current designs of direct TPMS, a small electronic assembly which is rugged enough to be mounted inside a tire, measures the pressure using a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) [1] pressure sensor and then transmits this and other information to one or more vehicle receivers. [1]

  5. Suction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction

    Suction is the day-to-day term for the movement of gases or liquids along a pressure gradient with the implication that the movement occurs because the lower pressure pulls the gas or liquid. However, the forces acting in this case do not originate from just the lower pressure side, but also from the side of the higher pressure, as a reaction ...

  6. Tire-pressure gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_gauge

    A tire-pressure gauge, or tyre-pressure gauge, is a pressure gauge used to measure the pressure of tires on a vehicle. Proper tire pressure is crucial for vehicle safety, fuel efficiency, and tire longevity. Tire gauges come in various types, including analog, digital, and dial gauges, each offering different features and accuracy levels.

  7. Büchner flask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Büchner_flask

    The thick wall of the Büchner flask provides it the strength to withstand the pressure difference while holding a vacuum inside. It is primarily used together with a Büchner funnel fitted through a drilled rubber bung or an elastomer adapter (a Büchner ring ) at the neck on top of the flask for the filtration of samples.
