ROC Ultra Compact Hand Pump

Industrial Design
 
 
Ultra Compact Rotary Cycle PumpThis is the first version of the cycle pump that RocPro currently have under developement for manufacture. The design will have a number of features that are unique within the bicycle pump market, including a rotary method of use that utilises a folding crank instead of a pump handle and a greatly improved air displacement volume to pump size ratio. 
 
The internal patented technology has been prototyped and tested and the Ultra concept is now in the advanced stages of prototyping with Exeter University (CALM)  and the internal components are due to be optimised by UWE over the coming months.

The Ultra is expected to meet the following specifications:-

Dimensions:- 172mm L x 38mm H x 25.4mm W
Weight:- 230 grams (although we are working with MAS to reduce this to around 190 grams)
Pressure range:- 5 - 130 psi.
Volume displacement:- 2 way version 128,000mm3
