Definitions

  • This innovation is hens specifically a reusable, rechargeable, compact, small-sized, self-inflating, folding life preserver in conjunction with a launcher or gun similar to a rifle, the features of which make it the perfect tool for use an a launcher and for getting the aforementioned life preserver to the person to be rescued, said launcher likewise being actively involved in the recovery of the float and thus in the operation of picking up the victim grasping onto said float.
  • This life preserver is comprised of two separate main parts which, in all, comprise an entire rescue system as a whole, the life preserver float as such and the propulsion unit, launcher or gun which affords the possibility of launching it over long distances.
  • this life preserver system is comprised of two main parts, that is, the life preserver per se and the life preserver propulsion or launching mechanism.
  • the life preserver is comprised of two main parts, one mainly made of rubber or latex or of a similar material to ensure the buoyancy thereof, and a second part, preferably made of metal. including different mechanisms. It is in the rubber portion where the deflated float (1) is kept, being equipped with different valves for the intake of air or gas (2) in addition to a main air valve (3) running directly from the compressed air or gas tank (4) included in the metal part of this item. This area is joined and secured to the metal area by means of a rigid plate with which it is equipped on the inside through the center from which the main valve (3) is made to run.
  • the entire float is kept inside a type of somewhat more rigid cover (5), the upper part of which, which is also made of rubber is a cap (6), from which two phosphorescent ties (7) made of nylon or of a similar material hand which, in conjunction with the other tie which crosses them on the diagonal, secure or gather the entire float into one sole compact package, temporarily securing it into place with some rubber thrums or stops (8) to the mid-section of the life preserver.
  • rubber relief (9) is at the top part of the cap to provide instructions, which is used to guide the mechanism with circular movements which it would cause itself as shown on the drawing which reroutes the air to one side on the cap, making the float turn.
  • This self-turning system is rounded out with two overhangs in the form of porches-or flaps (10) situated exactly opposite one another and also setting the direction of the steering path. These flaps would be connected to the interior and to the exterior of the cap.
  • the float per se is equipped with an additional safety layer on the inside which would open up in the event that any of the two parts of the float were to be punctured, it sufficing with the other, being possible to be re-inflated by means of the different valves intended for use (11) in the event of emergency.
  • the metal part to which the float is attached is composed mainly of a gas tank (4) and two mechanisms designed so that the system float will inflate, be it by mechanical means or, alternatively, by means of a water sensor.
  • the gas tank (4) is specially-shaped and houses the two gas or air-feeder systems in a recess located at the bottom of the tank. These two systems overlap one another, being linked to one another lengthwise, given that the rod of the lever at the top makes its way through the center of the zone despite the fact that this is where the automatic inflating mechanisms similar to those already existing on the market is located.
  • This life preserver float can be inflated either manually or automatically.
  • the automatic water sensor-operated system (15) shown in Figs. 2, 3, 5, and 6 is enabled by means of the dissolving of a salt tablet (16) in the same manner as some of the sensors which are currently sold on the market are enabled.
  • a salt tablet (16) in the same manner as some of the sensors which are currently sold on the market are enabled.
  • the main mechanisms of the sensor is enclosed in an unsealed receptacle which is equipped with small openings or holes at the bottom and which is either rubberized, metal or reinforced given that due to long-range, lasting use, dust particles can collect on it as a result of its being used with a launcher.
  • the small receptacle containing this mechanism will begin to fill with water.
  • the tablet On the water coming into contact with the tablet, the tablet will dissolve within a few seconds giving rise to the spring which it had underneath that was pressed into a metal box secured to the base (17) being released.
  • the rod located at the center of the mechanism shifts position, moving far enough to opt a valve which is the main valve of the gas tank, and directly hooks up with the internal base of the float, as a result of which the item in question will be inflated within a few seconds' time.
  • Another possibly major improvement is that of installing a water sensor (15) of the features described hereinabove in the area of the steering butts located on the side (10), even that, without making any change in the steering system, a simple double ported valve (19), the gas system can be kept open constantly by means of a flexible tube (20) coupled to the float by means of any of the gas outlet valves (2). It suffices for the sensor to be enabled so the float to in turn enable the flow of air closed up to that point in time directly liked to the inflatable life preserver by means of the gas tank tube.
  • the launching system is shown in Figs. 10, 11, 12 and 13.
  • This system is basically a high-powered, completely immersible, detachable propulsion unit comprised basically of a barrel (30) and the butt (33), unserviceable for any caliber balls and which is equipped with the mechanisms basic to any firearm entails some engineering design features which distinguish it from other guns and which make it useful and apt for use by the public at large.
  • This system functions as described in following.
  • the ring on the string attached to the life preserver (21) is taken and is joined to the ring on the end of the string (23) of the roll stand (25) which is affixed to the launcher proper. Following the launching of the life preserver, it suffices to wait for the victim to grasp onto the life preserver to pull in the string (23). At this time, the person manning this system needs only to turn the crank (26) built into the line roll stand (25).
  • this implement Despite its infantile or simple appearance, this implement employs exclusive gauging systems resulting in the development of a high-trajectory firing system pinpointing the mark in most cases.
  • This gun is also equipped with either a digital or manual a degree gauge (29), comprising an additional innovation, containing a certain amount of fluid not subject to changes due to the effects of heat or cold (antifreeze) as a level, shaped in form of a right-angle triangle-sided pyramid, where the hypotenuse in the base and plane of the barrel of the gun.
  • a degree gauge comprising an additional innovation, containing a certain amount of fluid not subject to changes due to the effects of heat or cold (antifreeze) as a level, shaped in form of a right-angle triangle-sided pyramid, where the hypotenuse in the base and plane of the barrel of the gun.
  • the degree gauge would show a progressively higher reading.
  • a screw-on muzzle (13) which can be attached to the end of the barrel (30) inside which the compact life preserver float (1) fits tightly for greater pressure is located.
  • This muzzle (13) has a number of openings or holes (31) ranging from 4 to 6 in number, located at its base in the event that, in special situations or under special circumstances it were to be necessary to fire a less powerful or more silent shot. This would be the case, for example, in which a risk of an avalanche or of a landslide were to be involved.
  • another scale will be made to add to the data on the gun butt.
  • the body be synthetic or rubber in order to ensure its flawless working order under water, also being resistant to possible impacts as the result of everyday outdoor use.
  • Spaces can also be left on the butt (33) and at the midsection (34) for stowing first-aid kits or gun-cleaning kits, additional floats or other auxiliary items.
  • first-aid kits or gun-cleaning kits additional floats or other auxiliary items.
  • the ammunition-loading system (35) is preferably located on the side so as to allow the telemetric or other gauges to be more readily slipped over it, and equipped with a single-fire mechanism, with a conventional trigger with a built-in safety bolt (36) and is not equipped with an exceedingly large number of automatic devices which are, on the other, hand, unnecessary, given that apart from making this gun more difficult to handle as the result of entailing greater prospects of faults occurring, would also add to the cost of this item, which is not advisable, given that, due to the features thereof, this is an item indicated as a good for public use.
  • the ammunition-loading mechanism (35), the trigger (36) and the muzzle (31) are perfectly well-equipped to be immersed by means of the action of some pressure seals (37) with rubber gaskets, which are easy to detach,
  • Fig. 8 and Fig. 9 provide the details of the structure of the roll stand (25), at the bottom of which, at the end of which the string is wound (23), a part is installed which is similar to a bright-colored daisy or rosette which shoots out when the cable on the roll stand (25) runs out. Given its light weight, buoyancy and the easy with which it is visible, this rosette marks the end of the line for easy recovery. If it were to be affixed to the roll stand (25), when the line ran out. even though solely a few meters ahead of time, it would be impossible to come to the aid of the victim. Hence, it is always possible to go out in the water the few meters the rosette has gone to retrieve if for the rescue operation.
  • the aforementioned rosette is kept folded up inside the roll stand and will open up on touching the water, given that its ends are subject tot he action or a salt washer or threading similar to that of the automatic firing device. When it opens up, it exposes a combined grooved rubber surface and hooks running in one sole direction made of a sturdier material, which will afford the possibility of retrieving the entire system lost from the shoreline without having to go into the water. It is only necessary to fire a compact life preserver with the inflating systems disabled by means of the lever (12) and the cover.
  • the outside ties can be eliminated from most common model for beaches and long-distances, the entire outer layer being finished off in an attachment guide (54) (Fig. 21) into which the edged of the aforementioned layer will be inserted, being held in place by the pressure created.
  • This guide or safety mechanism can be comprised of one or more sections Up to the ends of the guide, some edgings made of rubber or a similar material (66) (Fig. 24), as well as some rabbets around the entire edge of the layer (5) (Fig. 21), all of which is to prevent water from flowing in, are optional
  • a cylindrical or nearly cylindrical body will be formed depending upon the type of guide (54) employed. Attached to the bottom of the guide is one of caps (6) (Fig. 21) such that once the outer layer has been secured in place, the entire body (52) (Fig. 18-19-29) becomes a vessel or receptacle into which the life preserver as such is to be inserted, closing off this assembly of the top cap (6) (Fig. 20) which would be secured temporarily to the water sensor (15) (Fig. 23-24) and to the neck of the life preserver, leaving the former of the two exposed through a centrally-located opening.
  • this entire assembly of the body provides what is located inside it with a high degree protection against water flowing inside it (Fig. 23, Fig. 24). It is in this section that the ring (57) for attaching the float-pulling ties (51) (Fig. 23-24) will be housed.
  • the float will immediately be inflated, the float pressing on the outer walls (5) (Fig 21) which, in turn, will emerge as a result of the pressure of the guide (54) (Fig. 21), affording the possibility of the opening of the inside assembly, comprised mainly apart from the mechanical parts, of two basic components: a watertight float, creased by a highly flexible high-strength (polyurethane or similar) rubbery plastic coating which would he covered in a thin, high strength fabric, be it nylon or a similar fabric.
  • the coating can be dual-chamber with two blowers for cases of emergency involving air leakage. Due to its components this coating prevents possible punctures or damage, whether they be caused by fingernails of nervous accident victims, rubbing against rocks, sharp objects or any other customary risk involved in sea rescues.
  • the entire assembly is housed compactly inside, thus preventing any bypass valves and trouble for occupants.
  • the gas bottle (4) (Fig. 22) is replaced through the float neck opening, subsequently being tightly closed by means of a specially-designed thread or attached clamp (63) (Fig. 22) provided for this purpose.
  • the gas bottle can also be closed through the end of one of the float arms, providing for a perfectly watertight seal.
  • the victim is provided with a large, fully-inflated float within his/her reach within a few seconds of having called out for help. Due to the fact that the float (1) (Fig. 22) is horseshoe-shaped, it is much easier to grab hold of, given that by simply pulling it up to his/her body, the victim is held tight from the back. Additionally, it can also be closed off along the back with a nylon tie secured or tied off in a similar fashion (53) (fig. 20-29), as a result of which, the victim already safe, only has to get out of the water with a life preserver.
  • the ties surrounding the cylinder or ball for purposes of holding the same into place can be done away with, thus affording the possibility, for better securing the contents thereof of inserting the body into a closed object without any side openings such that on the life preserver inflating it will emerge through the part of the cylinder where the cap or cover is located due to the pressure built up, given the the cap or cover also comes off under the impact of the pressure exerted by the float, as is detailed in Fig. 18 and Fig. 19.
  • the ends of the cylinder can reversed in use, leaving the cap area as the base of a concave protective cylinder (52) (fig.
  • both outer ends of the assembly can be the same (flat, concave, convex, etc.), it is advisable that a distinction be made between the two for optimum, safe service.
  • the water sensor can be shielded with a cover similar to those previously described (55) (fig. 25-25).
  • both these and the cylinder shapes previously mentioned are adaptable so that the gas is given off with the tank installed inside the float, closing the system with a larger-sized bypass valve which will afford the possibility of refilling or replacing the gas tank, and that on its being enclosed inside the float proper, it will afford the possibility of reducing the number of problems involved in rerouting the gas, given that a small intake is left for the plunger or needle to fit into (18), but without the possibility of any gas leaking out thanks to some small rubber stops surrounding it.
  • the finishing touch on the assembly will be that of the float connected to the water sensor with a clamp and/or thread serving as a link (63) (Fig. 22). All of the component parts can be changed in order or shape to give rise to the same assembly without jeopardizing the protection of this patent. All of the external components shall be of the suitable shape and texture to prevent any major injury to the accident victim.
  • a couple of nylon ties can be attached in the form of handles around the full breadth of the fabric and reinforced doubly at the front, as is detailed in Fig. 20, thus being affixed to ensure and spread the pulling pressure without it being possible for this to undergo any type of damage.
  • the manual launching just like that which is done using the launcher, can be accompanied by a heavy-duty line for facilitating the recovery of the inflatable body and of the victim. On this being a horseshoe-shaped float it fits up to the victim more readily and can be easily closed off using a cord, ring or similar.
  • the life preserver launching device its muzzle can be made unique by adding some teeth to it which will match the grooves on the life preserver body.
  • the coating of the life preserver must either be metal or made of another high-strength material, it thus being possible for it to be inserted directly into either the large muzzle or the small one, both of which are optional on the end of the launcher.
  • the small muzzle can also be made unique by providing it with a cut profile other than circular (oval, triangular, etc., just like the attached tube) also providing a greater deal of stability as regards the securing of the life preserver.
  • the entire outer structure of the float will be inserted into the attached tube, as a result of which, when the shot is fired, the life preserver will be thrown in either of two ways.
  • the opening process is similar to the conventional manner, with a rigid cover (64) (Fig. 30) with the closure somewhat more heavy-duty, it being possible for them to be held into place with adhesive or non-adhesive ties which change shape on coming into contact with the water or to turn and the cover give way by pressure resulting in a fast opening on the pressure building from the inside.
  • the entire assembly will finally be joined to the float just as in the preceding manners.
  • the thin muzzle is supplied with a structure in the form of a pan (65) (Fig. 30-31) as a protection of the occupant from the launcher.
  • said instrument (Fig. 30-31) is subject to affording the possibility of the use or of eliminating equipment to cut costs or to provide for easier handling, such as, for example, replacing the standard butt with the folding one, as is detailed in Fig. 16 and Fig. 17, in addition to cutting down the size or of taking off some of the component parts thereof, such as the distance-gauging device, etc.
  • the external configuration of this innovation is a round or cylindrical body preferably made of metal or of some other heavy-duty material (38) with a completely smooth surface with the exception of several holes leading to the inside but without going beyond the edge of the ball, also including an almost unnoticeable slot which divides the ball into two practically symmetrical halves (39).
  • Said ball houses the inflatable material (49) per se ready for launching, whether this material be a life preserver-float, an inflatable boat, etc., the main blower or air inlet valve (41) of which is connected to a four-way tube at the respective ends of which a number of components which are detailed in following are installed.
  • the first branch houses the water sensor (42) (Fig. 14) in one end, and the second one, which is located exactly opposite the first one, houses the air or gas inlet and outlet valve (43) of a closed device (44) for housing such a component.
  • the third branch of the tube is of a smaller diameter and likewise of a lesser thickness, in addition to be angled slightly differently from the other ends of the crosshead.
  • This small tube (45) (Fig. 14) hooks up directly to a chamber (46) comprised when the two halves of the ball are joined together such that a vacuum chamber (46) is formed surrounding the entire inside of the object, coinciding with the slot or cut (39) which divides the ball into two halves (39) as a result of which, once said vacuum has been created inside this inner ring, the entire ball is tightly sealed and finished off with thin plastic or rubber gaskets so that the ball will withstand the strongest of thrusts or impacts.
  • a projectile (38) (Fig. 14-15) must be inserted, whether a ball or a cylinder, all the way into the barrel or mouth of the launcher, taking the precaution, for the better functioning of the system, of leaving the water sensor (42) to the outside thereof.
  • the shot will be fired when the firing angle has been calculated using the instruments and gauges provided for this purpose.
  • the water-sensitive sensor (42) whether this sensor be of the tablet type, an electrically-operated valve or any other system, said sensor (42) moves inward exerting pressure on the valve (43) which will release the gas from the tank (44) whilst raising a small valve (47) which, acting as a lock, had been keeping the vacuum chamber which was connected to the little tube or vacuum-release duct (45) covered by this valve sealed.
  • the amount of air allowed to enter is limited both by the small diameter of the tube in question as well as by the greater degree to which the same is angled so that the pressurized air flowing out of the tank will encounter a larger number of obstacles hindering it from flowing through it, such that most of the air released from the gas tank will be routed through the tube connecting the inflating valve, finally completing the flow of gas into the inflatable body.
  • the vacuum chamber (46) being released and the two halves (38) of the ball or cylinder automatically split apart, the inflatable body can expand to its full size.
  • Both the main valve (41) as well as the auxiliary feeder valve (48) allow air to flow through only in one direction, as a result of which, once the inflating process had ended it will not be possible for the air to feed back in nor to flow out through the vacuum release tube (45), most of this gas therefore remaining inside the inflatable body.
  • the body is attached to the floating the same way as for other life preservers.
  • the user can shorten the distance between him and the victim by means of the simple procedure of moving into the water at a safe distance and then firing from the chosen position. Given the nature and the features of the gun in question, which is completely immersible it is only necessary to remove the cover from the muzzle.
  • This gun and the mechanisms of which it is comprised can be taken apart fast and relatively simply. Their structure and most of the body can be synthetic, as a result of which this operation will be carried out through the trap doors provided especially for this purpose and with a hermetic seal for the possible immersion thereof.
  • ballast can be incorporated which is comprised of a simple bag made of plastic or of a similar material which is folded and tied to the structure, which will unfold on the system opening up, picking up a certain amount of water sufficing to act as ballast and guarantee the immobility of the life preserver system.
