1. An air valve connecting device comprising:
a housing including a chamber formed in said housing, and including a first end portion, and including a second end portion, said housing including a passage formed in said housing and communicating with said chamber of said housing, a cover attached to said first end portion of said housing, and said cover including a peripheral rib extended radially and inwardly into said cover, a sliding member slidably engaged in said chamber of said housing, said sliding member including a pathway laterally formed in said sliding member for selectively aligning and communicating with said passage of said housing, and said sliding member including a mouth formed in said sliding member and communicating with said pathway of said sliding member for selectively engaging with an inflation valve, a gasket attached to said sliding member and including a bore formed in said gasket and communicating with said mouth of said sliding member for selectively engaging with said inflation valve, and a grasping device including a plurality of pawls engaged with said gasket, said pawls each including a lower portion extendible out of said first end portion of said housing for selectively engaging with said peripheral rib of said cover, and said peripheral rib of said cover being engaged with said lower portions of said pawls for selectively forcing said pawls radially inward and toward each other and to compress said gasket to engage with said inflation valve, and to resiliently clamp and grasp said inflation valve to said sliding member when said gasket and said pawls are moved into said chamber of said housing, wherein said gasket includes a peripheral recess formed in an outer peripheral portion of said gasket, and said pawls each include a protrusion extended radially and inwardly and engaged with said peripheral recess of said gasket. |
