Abstract:
1. A sealing fluid container assembly ( 3 ) connectable to a compressor assembly and to a control circuit of said compressor assembly, and which comprises a connecting unit ( 25 ) defining a releasable connection to said compressor ( 12 ) for injecting sealing fluid into an inflatable article and which cooperates releasably with a valve (v) of said inflatable article, the container assembly being characterized by comprising a sensor carried by said connecting device ( 12 ); and at least one electric contact ( 33 ) connected to said sensor ( 12 ) and cooperating with an electric terminal ( 24 ) to transmit a signal from said sensor ( 12 ) to said control device when said connecting device ( 12 ) is connected to said valve (V); said sensor ( 12 ) comprising a first and a second terminal ( 40 , 39 ) designed to be short-circuited directly by said valve (V) wherein said container assembly ( 3 ) further comprises a hose ( 7 ) for supporting said connecting device ( 12 ) and a first and second conductor ( 13 , 14 ) made of a conductive polymer material on the hose respectively connected to said first and second terminal ( 40 , 39 ) to connect said sensor ( 12 ) to said control device, and wherein said first and second conductors comprise a band ( 34 , 35 ) of conductive polymer material coextruded onto the hose ( 7 ).
