The hollow tubular body has a tubular wall forming a pressure relief hole at a preset position corresponding to a maximum allowable pressure level. A scale bar having graduations is provided along a moving path of the plate. The elastic force of compression of the elastic element serves as a reaction force (restoration and returning force) for the linear movement of the plate. A pressure conducted into the hollow tubular body from the inflation machine drives the plate to move and thus indicates the pressure level. | 10-30-2014 |
