AUTOMATIC PARACHUTE WITH PNEUMATIC SLINGS Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC B64D17/54 B64D17/72 

FIELD: parachutes.

SUBSTANCE: used to rescue adults and children from a multi-storey building during a fire, earthquake, etc., starting from the second floor, to rescue the ejected passenger compartment of a car or aircraft, to rescue entire light aircraft, at high altitudes works and in alpine climbing as insurance. The parachute has a canopy placed in a rigid bucket. Each pneumatic sling consists of an inflatable beam and a tape sling located inside it. The upper part of each pneumatic sling is connected to the canopy through a reel and rope loop, and the lower part is connected to a gas distribution device mounted on the bucket. In the initial state, pneumatic slings are rolled into rolls around reels. Correct unrolling of rolls is ensured by tracks of a sticky layer. When the parachute opens, gas from the pyro-gas generator enters the inflatable beams through the gas distribution device, unfolds the rolls, and thanks to the reels and rope loops, the canopy is pulled out of the bucket and opened forcibly, because unfolded pneumatic slings form a rigid frame in the shape of a multifaceted pyramid.

EFFECT: very fast forced opening of the parachute with a possible subsequent delay in the jump is achieved, the possibility of turning into a regular parachute, reducing the fear of jumping.
