Glen Davis Posted October 21, 2023 Report Posted October 21, 2023 so…. What I thought were pumps for an inflatable blow up girl turns out are pumps for lumbar support. Now that I learned that, when I pump them, the air just blows out of the hole at the top of the pump. How are they suppose to work? The silver button on the bottom of the pump is a release valve to deflate the bladders but it does not turn and lock to keep the air in.
carusoam Posted October 21, 2023 Report Posted October 21, 2023 Isn’t it a simple tighten to inflate, loosen to deflate type system? the door bladders probably work the same way… it probably comes from a blood pressure cuff…. PP thoughts only, not a user of any of these devices… Best regards, -a-
Glen Davis Posted October 21, 2023 Author Report Posted October 21, 2023 I have the inflatable door seals too, as you described. You turn to the right to lock the air in and then you turn to the left to let the air out. These bladder pumps don’t work the same way. There’s a knob to push to deflate the bladders, but that knob when turned right or left, just spins, it doesn’t do anything to lock the air in. 1
PeteMc Posted October 23, 2023 Report Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) My friends used to always bug me when I first flying and taking them places "...what kind of airline is this anyway?..." Always wanted to put together a little bag and just yell at them to get it out of the back. In it would be a blow up girl and guy (since there were female friends that would often come along). Also one of those little Disney Princess viewfinders with the little thumb clicker to advance. Some sort of snacks and I always figured I leave an old rotten hard boiled egg in a baggie too. ADDED: I forgot! A little toy version of the S. S. Minow! Edited October 23, 2023 by PeteMc 1
Justin Schmidt Posted October 26, 2023 Report Posted October 26, 2023 Well that wasn't what I was expecting
