Zusammenfassung:A pumping assembly for maintaining a pneumatic tires inflation pressure is described. The pumping assembly includes at least one double chamber pump connected to a cam. The cam is connected to a gravity mass to maintain the cam in a stationary position. The pump has a roller for engaging the cam and producing the pumping action as the tire rim rotates. The assembly is preferably mounted in a reservoir wherein the reservoir is in fluid communication with one or more tire cavities. The system requires no alteration to the tire and pumps the air directly into the valve stem. The pumps are configured to provide an amplication effect because of the way they are configured, and thus do not need high compression ratios.
