Definitions

  • the portable device of elongated overall shape, comprises at least one inlet intended to be connected to a source of compressed gas under high pressure, to allow the latter to relax in an air intake chamber, the inlet being associated with a mechanism for triggering the release of the compressed gas to the air intake chamber.
  • the latter has an opening intended to allow the admission of surrounding air and an outlet intended to be connected to the bag to be inflated.
  • the gas is injected into a cylindrical air intake chamber provided in each of the inflation mechanisms by an injection nozzle disposed substantially in alignment with the central axis of the air intake chamber.
  • the latter has a plurality of openings in its side wall to allow the suction of surrounding air as a consequence of the injection of the gas under high pressure.
  • the sucked air is accelerated by Venturi effect to quickly inflate the corresponding inflatable bag with a sufficient volume, by applying a multiplication factor (volume air / volume compressed gas) to that of the volume of compressed gas available, thanks to the addition of air.
  • Each of the inflation mechanisms further comprises a check valve to prevent the corresponding inflatable bag from deflating through the inlet when it is fully inflated.
  • compressed air As an alternative to nitrogen, it is also known to use compressed air as compressed gas under high pressure.
  • the multiplication factor applied in the known devices is not very high, of the order of 2 to 3 (that is to say that the volume of surrounding air injected into the airbag is the order of 2 to 3 times the volume that represents the gas in the airbag once it is decompressed) and requires the use of a large volume of compressed gas to inflate the airbag.
  • the size of the compressed gas cartridge thus contributes significantly to the overall size of the inflation device, which is why the above-mentioned US patent proposes an architecture of the device in a modular form, that is, that is to say to arrange the various components of the device in different places of a bag, for example.
  • an avalanche protection airbag should be inflated in approximately 2 to 4 seconds.
  • a main object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of inflation devices known from the prior art, by proposing such a device that effectively meets the constraints set out above, in particular by making it possible to inflate an airbag in the required time and, having a small footprint and ease of assembly / disassembly.
  • the present invention relates to a backpack according to claim 1.
  • the inflation device comprises an intermediate chamber for dispensing the compressed gas, arranged between the inlet and the air inlet chamber to connect them to the to one another and a plurality of ejection holes arranged to open into a side wall of the air inlet chamber to connect the latter to the intermediate distribution chamber.

  • the non-return diaphragm provides optimum operational safety and robustness for a small number of components.
  • a thin rod 44 may be provided, in the second portion 38 for safety, to define a stop for the pivoting disc and prevent deformation of the non-return diaphragm in the direction of exit of the airbag, what could happen in case of application of a large and brutal pressure on the latter, in the absence of such a stop.
