Abstract

828,492. Parachute pack and rip-cord devices. SWITLIK PARACHUTE CO. Inc. Oct. 15, 1957 [Nov. 19, 1956], No. 32162/57. Class 4. A parachute pack combination comprises closure flaps and a rip-cord having a plurality of grommet securing pins mounted thereon, wherein the rip-cord and pins are relatively movable for a predetermined length of the rip-cord without the pins disengaging the grommets. The rip-cord 10 is operable by a handle 13 attached to the parachute harness (not shown). A collar 14 on the rip-cord engages the handle, and if the rip-cord is fairly stiff, tends to prevent accidental pack release. Each pin 7 comprises a sleeve 9 slidable on the ripcord, and engages a conventional cone and grommet pack fastening (not shown). Abutments 11 on the rip-cord contact the pins and effect release of the para. chute after the rip-cord has been moved through a certain distance. In a non rigid back pack, the lost motion betweer the abutments 11 and the pins may be varied so that the pins release the fast enings sequentially, or may be the same for all pins. Some pins may be securec to the rip cord.
