DEVICE FOR PRACTICALLY INSTANTANEOUS FILLING OF EMPTY FLEXIBLE BAG WITH GAS Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; protection from injuries. SUBSTANCE: proposed invention relates to device for practically instantaneous filling of flexible bag with gas under the action of high decelerating effort. Device has high pressure reservoir filled with gas, pipe connecting reservoir with bag, opening device providing coupling between reservoir and bag at the moment when intensity of deceleration exceeds definite minimum value, and deceleration sensor. Reservoir consists of two high pressure reservoirs, each closed by its own shutoff device and connected with corresponding pipe both pipes being laid to common pipe connected with flexible bag. One high pressure reservoir is filled with oxygen and inert gas, and the other is filled with inert gas and hydrogen, helium, argon and/or nitrogen being used as inert gases. EFFECT: improved protection from traumas. 6 cl, 1 dwg
