ABSTRACT:
An air pumping station for a pneumatic toy vehicle powered by a re-fillable compressed air bottle or canister includes a stabilizing base having a flat ground engaging horizontal lateral bottom including a horizontal projecting geometry proportioned for placement under the feet of the user. The station also includes a fluid-tight vertical cylindrical housing. The station includes a reciprocating piston having a first end in fluid tight relation to interior walls of the housing and a second end defining hand-grippable pumping handles. The station has an air intake valve for the cylindrical housing. The pumping station includes an element for selectable clamping and unclamping of the toy vehicle to at least a first surface of the cylinder, however offset therefrom by a sufficient distance to avoid the reciprocal movement of the piston and grippable pumping handles. The cylinder includes an air exhaust aperture in fluid communication with the base of the cylinder. An air exhaust conduit is provided having a proximal end in fluid communication with the air exhaust aperture and a distal end including an air inlet valve defining a compressed air input to the air bottle of the toy vehicle. The grippable pumping handle and the stabilizing base exhibit elongate substantially co-parallel lateral horizontal axis which, in combination, define a virtual plane which avoids intersection of the toy secured to the cylindrical housing though the selectable clamping elements.
