Now-a-days inflation in tyres is done once in a month or twice. This leads to decrease in efficiency. Hence to maintain good efficiency and avoid wear in tyres automatic inflation during motion is required. As and when the tyre pressure decreases the Tyre Pressure Moni toring S ystem gives the signal through a display screen and the rider has to switch on power button. The air passage takes place with the same mechanism as that in compressor which has single slider crank chain mechanism which

The Bearing-O ring-Check mechanism rotates simultaneously with the wheel. After complete inflation switch off signal is given to the rider.
