Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Inbetriebnahme von aufblasbaren Rettungsinseln mit einem ringförmigen Schwimmkörper (1,2) und oberhalb davon bogen- oder v-förmigen, mit ihren Enden am Schwimmkörper befestigten aufblähbaren Schläuchen (5,6,7). Um zu erreichen, dass sich die Rettungsinsel von der Über-Kopf-Stellung in die Gebrauchslage selbsttätig verschwenkt, wird erfindungsgemäss vorgeschlagen, zuerst die bogen- oder v-förmigen Schläuche (5,6,7) und dann erst die Schläuche des Schwimmkörpers (1,2) aufzublähen. Dabei kann die Rettungsinsel eine oder mehrere Druckmittelquellen (8,9,10,11,12,13) aufweisen, die jedoch so arbeiten müssen, dass zunächst die vorgenannten v- oder bogenförmigen Schläuche (5,6,7) beaufschlagt werden. Beim Vorhandensein nur einer Druckquelle (8,10) kann dazu eine Drossel (15,20) dienlich sein.

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to a method for starting inflatable liferafts with an annular floating body (1, 2) and above or above them arcuate or V-shaped inflatable tubes (5, 6, 7) attached to the floating body. In order to ensure that the liferaft automatically swivels from the overhead position to the position of use, the invention proposes firstly the curved or V-shaped hoses (5, 6, 7) and then only the hoses of the floating body (1 , 2) inflate. The life raft can have one or more pressure medium sources (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13) which, however, must work in such a way that the aforementioned v-shaped or curved hoses (5, 6, 7) are acted on first. If only one pressure source (8, 10) is present, a throttle (15, 20) can be used for this.
