Abstract
An aerosol tire sealant and inflator assembly includes an aerosol bottle, a lid, an actuator, and a hose. The aerosol bottle has pressurized tire sealant and air housed therein. The lid has an actuator opening extending through the lid and a sloped locking lip extending from an inner wall. The locking lip includes a first portion and a second portion. The actuator is positioned within the actuator opening and rotatably coupled to the lid between a closed position and an open position. The actuator has a coupling and an actuator tab engaged with the first portion of the locking lip when the actuator is in the closed position and engaged with the second portion of the locking lip when the actuator is in the open position. The hose includes a coupling configured to couple to the actuator and a coupling configured to couple to a tire stem.
