  2. Schrader valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrader_valve

    The Schrader valve is used on virtually all automobile tires and motorcycle tires and most wider-rimmed bicycle tires.In addition to tube and tubeless tires, Schrader valves of varying diameters are used on many refrigeration and air conditioning systems to allow servicing, including recharging with refrigerant; by plumbers conducting leak-down pressure tests on pipe installations; as a ...

  3. Presta valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presta_valve

    Schrader valves use a spring to close, so Schrader chucks use a "pin" to open the valve while the chuck is attached. This avoids the Presta's nut, but leads to use of slower screw-on or heavier clamp-on Schrader chucks. Presta valves are mainly used on bicycles, and are rarely used on cheaper bicycles. Presta pumps are thus less common.

  4. Tubeless tire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubeless_tire

    A tubeless tire (also spelled as tubeless tyre in Commonwealth English) is a pneumatic tire that does not require a separate inner tube.. Unlike pneumatic tires which use a separate inner tube, tubeless tires have continuous ribs molded integrally into the bead of the tire that are forced by air pressure into a flange on the metal rim of the wheel, sealing the tire to the rim.

  6. Valve stem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_stem

    Replacing a valve stem. A valve stem is a self-contained valve that opens to admit gas to a chamber (such as air to inflate a tire), [1] and is then automatically closed and kept sealed by the pressure in the chamber, or a spring, [2] [3] or both, to prevent the gas from escaping.

  7. Talk:Schrader valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Schrader_valve

    Pressed Spring is seen to expand while valve is opened manually, so helps to open the valve. In reality this spring functions the opposite way. 2. No blank frames between emptied tube (elastic vessel) and filled tube give the impression that the tube is filled quick but live in the animation. Being in conflict with the valve that stays closed.

  8. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    An automatic control valve consists of three main parts in which each part exist in several types and designs: Valve actuator – which moves the valve's modulating element, such as ball or butterfly. Valve positioner – which ensures the valve has reached the desired degree of opening. This overcomes the problems of friction and wear.

    Plot of normalized ⁡ function (i.e. ⁡ ()) with its spectral frequency components.. The unitary Fourier transforms of the rectangular function are [2] ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ (), using ordinary frequency f, where is the normalized form [10] of the sinc function and ⁡ = ⁡ (/) / = ⁡ (/), using angular frequency , where is the unnormalized form of the sinc function.
