Recently, Xiamen Jiedeng Machinery Co., Ltd. successfully obtained a German design patent for its self-developed intelligent automatic air tank drain valve, marking official European intellectual property recognition for the product's design. The company will showcase this intelligent automatic drain valve at the 2026 IAA Transportation exhibition in Hanover from September 15 to 20, booth number H12 E20-05, presenting China's innovative components to global commercial vehicle industry customers.
This intelligent drainage valve is a key technological innovation product developed by Jiedeng Machinery. It aims to upgrade the traditional manual drainage valve to a more advanced model. The traditional drainage valve relies on manual water discharge at regular intervals, which is prone to problems such as incomplete drainage and inaccurate timing. The accumulated water in the storage tank will persistently remain, posing potential driving safety hazards such as vehicle braking failure, and also increasing the maintenance costs of the entire vehicle.
Based on its independently developed technology, this patented product of Jiedeng can accurately identify water accumulation and complete the drainage operation automatically. It can promptly empty the water in the air tank, prevent water accumulation in the air path at the source, enhance the reliability of the braking system of commercial vehicles, reduce the frequency of vehicle maintenance in the later stage, and be applicable to various commercial vehicle conditions such as trucks, buses, and coaches.
IAA Transportation is the premier global industry event for commercial vehicles, bringing together automakers, component buyers, and technology research institutions from around the world. At this exhibition, Xiamen Jiedeng Machinery will showcase its complete intelligent drainage system in physical form along with real-world application cases at booth H12 E20-05. The company aims to engage directly with European and international customers, expand into overseas markets, and promote the global adoption of domestically produced smart components.
The enterprise's executive stated, "The German patent is an important endorsement for our deep penetration into the European market. We are committed to conducting technological innovations based on the safety issues of commercial vehicles and bringing smarter and more reliable components to global customers. In the future, we will also continuously improve our intellectual property layout and iterate our products to provide higher-quality gas line safety solution packages for global commercial vehicles."
Xiamen Jiedeng Machinery specializes in the research, development, and manufacturing of air system components for commercial vehicles, with a focus on intelligent air tank drainage systems. The company holds multiple patents and certifications, supplies products globally, and is committed to providing safe, efficient, and intelligent solutions for trucks and buses.
