1. An inflatable product comprising:
an inflatable body;
a pressure switch;
with the pressure switch comprising:
a casing with an airway adapted to communicate with an interior of the inflatable body;
a resilient element movably positioned inside the casing to define with the casing a space therebetween;
an on/off switch adapted to connect to an air pump;
a driving element movably positioned inside the casing to be in response to the movement of the resilient element so as to selectively activate or deactivate the on/off switch to activate or deactivate the air pump; and
a recoil element positioned inside the casing so that a distal end of the recoil element is abutted against the resilient element, wherein the recoil element is compressed/decompressed when the resilient element moves in response to pressure change inside the inflatable body so that activation/deactivation of the on/off switch is controlled via the movement of the resilient element as well as the compression/decompression of the recoil element.
