The small stainless steel air receiver installed on the modified bicycle in the picture is the core energy storage component of the complete pneumatic boost system. It relies on the sealed stainless steel tank to store high-pressure compressed air, serving as the key device to realize jet-assisted propulsion and pneumatic driving.
The stainless steel air tank features excellent pressure resistance. It can be pre-filled with compressed air at 0.8–2MPa to store the potential energy of air pressure. Unlike real-time air pumping, the air tank can store sufficient high-pressure air at one time, which can be released at any time during riding to deliver continuous thrust without insufficient air supply or power interruption.
Made of stainless steel, the tank is light, compact, rust and corrosion resistant. It can be tightly mounted in the gaps of mini frames without occupying riding space. The SS tank is vibration-resistant, resisting deformation and air leakage when riding on bumpy roads, ideal for outdoor application of DIY modified small vehicles.
An air filling port is reserved on the tank. After exhausting internal air, an external hose can be connected to rapidly inflate bicycle tubeless tires or inner tubes, supporting emergency tire repair during riding for dual usage.
Connect an external air compressor or manual high-pressure pump, then continuously pump air into the sealed stainless steel tank via the air inlet valve. As air is compressed, internal pressure rises until reaching the preset safe pressure, then close the inlet valve. High-pressure air is hermetically stored inside the tank to finish energy storage. The stainless steel tank adopts a high-strength cylinder with end caps on both sides to withstand internal high pressure and eliminate air leakage or tank rupture risks.
A precision pressure regulating valve is integrated at the front end of the air receiver. When releasing gas, air first passes through the pressure regulating structure to stabilize the high-pressure air inside the tank to a safe operating pressure, buffer air impact and maintain constant output air pressure.
The rider turns on the air outlet solenoid valve via the handlebar control switch. Stored high-pressure air flows rapidly out of the tank to the rear jet nozzle. The high-speed backward air jet generates reverse thrust to drive the bicycle forward; closing the valve immediately cuts off air flow and stops boosting.
After internal pressure drops to a low level, the tank can be reconnected to an air source for repeated inflation and reuse. A built-in safety relief valve is equipped on the tank; it will automatically release pressure if internal pressure exceeds the safety threshold to prevent overpressure explosion and guarantee riding safety.
With outstanding pressure resistance, rust-proof performance and portable energy storage capacity, this mini stainless steel air receiver is an indispensable core component for pneumatic modified small vehicles, featuring both power boost and emergency inflation practical functions.
