Apparatus for inserting air and/or sealent into a tire

An apparatus for inserting air and/or sealant into a tire, comprising a container for the sealant having an inlet and an outlet, wherein the outlet is connected or connectable to a hose of which the other end is connectable to a tire to be filled, and a means for generating pressure, which is connectable via a switching valve selectably with the inlet of the container or with a hose, of which the other end is connectable to a tire to be filled, wherein the same hose is provided for connecting the means for generating pressure to the tire to be filled, on the one hand, and for connecting the outlet of the container and the tire to be filled, on the other hand,

• wherein the switching valve is configured for providing, depending on its position, either a direct fluid connection between the means for generating pressure and the hose or a fluid connection between the means for generating pressure and the inlet of the container, on the one hand, and between the outlet of the container and the hose, on the other hand, and wherein the switching valve includes a valve housing having a first connection stub for the connection of the switching valve to the means for generating pressure and a second connection stub for the connection of the switching valve to the hose, the first connection stub being arranged at the valve housing and being displaced by 180° with respect to the second connection stub arranged at the valve housing.
