Abstract

604,304. Valves. HYMATIC ENGINEERING CO., Ltd., (formerly HEYWOOD COMPRESSOR CO., Ltd.), JAY, J. B., and HUNT, J. A. Aug. 7, 1945, No. 20209. [Class 135] A valve for controlling automatically the inflation of a flying suit to prevent blackout of the pilot when making sharp turns or pulling out of a dive, comprises a casing a having an inlet o connected to the compressed air system of the aircraft and an outlet p to the flying suit, and a double-beat valve n of, e.g. moulded rubber, as described in Specification 597,103, [Group XI], and mounted on a spring-loaded carrier m, the.opening of which is controlled by a piston c carrying a weight b and secured to a rod d supported by a spring e itself supported by a spring-loaded piston f. Normally, the weight is held against the valve cover h by the springs, but when the acceleration of the aircraft normal to the direction of flight reaches, say, 2g, the piston c is moved against the springs until it contacts with and opens the valve n. The air pressure on the piston f reduces the upward thrust on the valve carrier m and thus permits rapid opening of the valve. Upon reduction of the acceleration, the valve closes and air is permitted to flow from the suit to the atmosphere through ports a<SP>1</SP>, c<SP>1</SP> in the casing and the piston c respectively. The valve is provided with a test push-button i.
