Compressed air indicator

摘要

A compressed air indicator includes a housing having a pair of fittings and at least one (1) external pressure status window. The housing allows an “in-line” connection to an air line allowing compressed air to pass through. Once connected, movable indicator sleeves within the housing are visible through any window. The indicator sleeves are acted upon and correspondingly positioned relative to each window based upon “pressure” or “no-pressure” conditions within the air line and the housing.

主权项

1. A compressed gas indicating device comprising:
a housing comprising an outer wall, a first end, and a longitudinally opposed second end defining a hollow interior; a dividing wall positioned within said hollow interior, said dividing wall defining an inner air chamber and an outer air chamber, said inner air chamber being pneumatically connected to said outer air chamber; a first indicator sleeve disposed within said outer air chamber, proximate said first end; a second indicator sleeve disposed within said outer chamber and operably abutting said first indicator sleeve proximate said second end; a spring located within said outer air chamber and positioned between an upper surface of said second indicator sleeve and said second end; and, at least one window disposed within said outer wall; wherein said spring biases said second indicator sleeve and said first indicator sleeve towards said first end; and, wherein said first and second indicator sleeves are linearly movable such that said first indicator sleeve, in response to a presence of compressed gas within said inner chamber, is positioned to be visible through any one of said at least one window, and said second indicator sleeve, in response to a lack of compressed gas within said inner chamber, is positioned to be visible through any one of said at least one window.
