1. An inflatable device comprising:
a fluid controller including:
a housing including an inlet fluidly coupled to ambient and an outlet fluidly coupled to an inflatable bladder, the housing defining an air conduit;a valve assembly including a valve configured to fluidly couple the outlet of fluid controller to the inflatable device, the valve including a self-sealing diaphragm assembly configured to seal the outlet;an electromechanical device configured to act on the self-sealing diaphragm assembly to open the valve;a pump including a motor and an impeller located within the housing, the pump configured for moving air from the inlet through the air conduit to the outlet; and wherein the inflatable device includes an inflatable bladder; wherein a majority of the fluid controller is positioned within a profile of the inflatable bladder in a mounted position and orientation, and wherein in the same mounted position and orientation of the fluid controller, the fluid controller is configured to electromechanically open the valve via the electromechanical device to permit air to exit the inflatable bladder through the fluid controller and to energize the pump to provide air to the inflatable bladder through the fluid controller. |
