Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact underwater gas generator attached to the life jacket, lifeboat, life rubber ring or the like, for providing a buoyant force derived from gas blown out from a gas cartridge under compression force of a spring realized by dissolving a safety pin upon intrusion of seawater or fresh water in the emergency case. SOLUTION: A gas generator 1 is formed of a firing pin sliding storage portion 3 to which a detachable gas cartridge is directly installed at the end portion, and a spring storage portion 4. In the firing pin sliding storage portion, a spring 13 is disposed to be adjacent to the sliding body having a projecting firing pin. An insertion hole is formed in the outer periphery of the sliding body, which corresponds to the through hole formed in the outer periphery of the firing pin sliding storage portion. A water-soluble safety pin 7 is fitted with the insertion hole and the through hole. A penetration hole 9 communicated with the water soluble safety pin is pierced in the outer periphery of the firing pin storage portion.

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, if the small automatic underwater gas generator is mounted on a lifesaving device such as a life jacket, a lifeboat, a lifebuoy, etc., it can be compared with the conventional one. It is extremely compact and lightweight, and does not require any troublesome operation.Efficiently and quickly generates gas to sufficiently fulfill the role of a life-saving device, and the effect that it can be used safely for women, girls and children, etc. is there. And, since the gas cartridge is directly screwed into the gas generating main body in which the firing pin sliding storage portion and the spring storage portion are integrated, the assembly, the structure is extremely simple, the size is extremely reduced, and the whole is significantly reduced. This has the effect of reducing weight. Also, the spring provided at the end adjacent to the sliding body, slides the sliding body securely in a linear direction if the water-soluble safety pin is melted, and the firing pin at the tip breaks down the gas cartridge coating to release gas. It has the effect of reliably generating. Further, since the water-soluble safety pin is inserted into the insertion hole provided on the outer periphery of the sliding member and the through hole provided on the outer periphery of the firing pin sliding housing portion, the sliding member and the spring can be surely put in place. There is an effect that can be stopped and supported. In addition, the drilling hole that communicates with the surrounding area of the firing pin sliding storage section where the water-soluble safety pin is inserted has a great effect in an emergency, in which the melting time of the water-soluble safety pin is extremely fast. Can be demonstrated.
