Device for inflating or repairing inflatable items or products as needed, in particular tires, preferably vehicle tires

A device for inflating or repairing inflatable items, wherein the device comprises:

• a compressor assembly having at least one compressor unit comprising a compressed air outlet, via which air that is compressed by the at least one compressor unit is suppliable;
• a sealing liquid container having a sealing liquid;
• and
• a distribution system configured in order to fluidically connect the compressed air outlet of the at least one compressor unit as needed to a compressed air inlet of the sealing liquid container,
• wherein the distribution system includes a fluid passage with a first connector arranged at a first end region of the fluid passage and a second connector arranged at a second end region of the fluid passage arranged opposite the first end region, wherein the first and second connectors of the distribution system are respectively configured in order to form via a connecting line, a fluid connection between the fluid passage of the distribution system and the item, wherein the distribution system is configured in order to deliver, automatically and without manual switching or engagement, at least a portion of the compressed air supplied by the at least one compressor unit to the item when the first connector of the distribution system is fluidically connected to the item via the connecting line, and to deliver a sealing liquid/compressed air mixture to the item when the second connector of the distribution system is fluidically connected to the item via the connecting line,
• wherein the distribution system comprises a third valve assembly configured to block a fluid connection between a first region of the fluid passage of the distribution system and the compressed air inlet of the sealing liquid container when the second connector of the distribution system is not fluidically connected to the item, wherein the third valve assembly is configured to supply a fluid connection between the first region of the fluid passage of the distribution system and the compressed air inlet of the sealing liquid container when the second connector of the distribution system is fluidically connected to the item.
