Abstract
A pump that includes a body having a base and a top portion, wherein the base is configured to be anchored to the ground and the top portion is detachably connected to an upper plate in the body. The pump includes a handle assembly including a piston rod, handle bar, and cap that are detachably connected to each other by a fastener. The pump includes a tube positioned in the body. The tube slidably receives the piston rod and is connected to an air line. A hose is connected to the air line and extends from the body. The hose has a head configured to engage the nozzle of a tire. When the piston rod is moved downward within the tube, air is displaced from the tube and through the air line to the hose such that the head dispenses air.

A pump for inflating tires with air, comprising:
- a body having an upper portion and a lower portion and a circular plate located between the upper portion and lower portion, wherein the lower portion includes a first base plate that has a hole configured to receive an anchor to secure said first base plate to the ground, said lower portion having a greater outer diameter than said upper portion;
- a handle assembly including a piston-rod combination, handle bar, and handle cap detachably connected to each other by a first fastener;
- a tube positioned in said upper portion of said body and including a second base plate positioned beneath said circular plate that is detachably connected to said circular plate by a second fastener, said tube receiving said piston-rod combination such that said piston-rod combination slides in said tube;
- an air line positioned in said lower portion of said body, said air line being connected to said tube at one end and connected to an adapter at another end;
- and
- a hose threadably connected to said adapter and extending from said lower portion of said body, said hose having a head configured to engage a nozzle of a tire;
- wherein, when said piston-rod combination is moved downward within said tube, air is displaced from said tube and through said air line to said hose such that said head dispenses air.
