8 Ciaims, 1 Drawing lFire rurtnrrnc APPARATUS The invention described herein may be manufactured, used, and licensed by or for the Government for governmental purposes without the payment to us of any royalty thereon.
This invention relates to inflating apparatus, and more particularly, to a gas generator secured in the inlet of an inflatable structure.
it is an object of the invention to provide an inflating arrangement for an inflatable structure which is small and lightweight.
Another object of the invention is to provide such an arrangement in which inflating gas is rapidly delivered with a minimum of temperature and moisture content.
A further object of the invention is to provide such an arrangement which is safe and reliable, and in which the inlet gas is controlled and delivered at low velocity.
These and other objects, features and advantages will become more apparent from the following description and accompanying drawing which is an elevational sectional view of a preferred inflating apparatus embodying the principles of the invention.
The inflating apparatus, shown generally at lltl, includes a propellant tube 111 that is externally threaded adjacent both ends to secure thereto the head cap 12 and end cap 13 both of which are centrally apertured for a purpose to be described. An asbestos insulator 14 covers the sidewalls of the tube ll and caps l2, 13. Secured to head cap 12 by a plurality of screws 15 is a centrally apertured cylindrical mounting bracket lo the peripheral surface of which is suitably recessed to accommodate seal ring 17. The forward portion of tube ll is mounted in a pair of split cylindrical bracket portions 18 which are secured together on assembly by a plurality of appropriate screws 19. Suitable clamps 20, 20 secure the tube supporting mounting brackets l6, l8 in longitudinally spaced relationship within a predetermined flexible material orparawing portion 21 of the inflatable or paraglider structure (not shown).
Secured to the rearwardly extending annular flange 22 on bracket in, as by a plurality of suitable screws 23., is a sonically shaped protector 24 for certain elements of the initiator 25 which is threadedly secured in the central aperture of head cap l2. Until the safety pin 26 is withdrawn through an appropriate opening (not shown) in the protective cone 24, the operationally required retraction of the initiator firing pin 27 is preeluded. Within the initiator 25, pressure gas leakage rearwardly therethrough is prevented by O-ring seal 28 carried by the firing pin.
Cylindrical propellant body 34]) has a central passage and is located in tube ll forwardly adjacent the centrally apertured igniter 31. A plurality of boron potas' sium nitrate pellets 32 are positioned intermeidate the igniter 3i and the head cap 12. Preferably, a cellulose nitrate base adhesive and sealing compound secures the pellets 32 to the igniter 31 and also the igniter to the propellant body A loose coconut charcoal bed 33 substantially fills the space located between a pair oflongitudinally spaced baffle members 34, 35 each of which has a plurality of orifices to pass generated propellant gas to the hollow gas rod 37 as will be described from the burning propellant body Elli that had been ignited by the initiator actuated igniter 311.
Hollow gas rod 37 has an externally threaded rearward end which is secured against a blow-out or rup ture disc 36 in the forwardly opening hub portion 38 of the centrally-apertured support member 39. Support member 39 carries a peripheral O-ring seal ill and has a rearwardly opening recess larger than its central passage to accommodate or seat with a press fit the plurally orificed plate or ring 4i. A ring-shaped or annular spacer 42 is positioned intermediate baffle plate 35 and support member 39. The hollow gas rod 37 has a plurality of longitudinally spaced groups of peripherally spaced lateral openings 44, 45, d6, 47 and between each pair of adjacent groups is positioned a plurally apertured annular baffle plate 48, 49, 50. The baffle plates 48, W, 50 on assembly are positioned by appropriate rings and define respective compartments each containing a coolant of ammonium carbonate 511, 52, 53 and a forwardmost compartment that is substantially filled with a gas filtering anhydros body 54 of DRlERlTE for absorption of water from the substan tially cooled gases passing from the lateral openings in hollow rod 37 through the sintered filter unit 55. Filter unit 55 includes a sintered filter press-fitted on a plurally orificed member 56 having a central passage therethrough and an externally threaded hub portion 57 that is secured against rupture disc 59 which is seated in the end cap 13.. Rearwardly extending segmental protrusions 58 integral with member 56 function as a spacer with lateral passages. Set screw or threaded plug fill is secured in the forward end of the hollow gas rod 3'7 to seal off or preclude gases entering the filter 55 without having passed through the anhydros body 54.
End cap l3 has a forwardly opening hub portion 62 that is internally threaded for securement of the mating external threads on the cylindrical tubular portion 63 of deflector 64 that is located within and spaced from deflector tube 7% and has a closed forward end wall 65 which includes a radial extension or outwardly directed annula flange 6b. The deflector tubular portion 63 has a plurality of lateral passages 67' rearwardly adjacent flange 66 for directing cooled propellant gas toward the internal surface of deflector tube 70 that has inwardly directed rearmost flange means 71 containing appropriate apertures for screws '72 that secure the deflector tube to the end cap l3. Cooled propellant gas is thus delivered through deflector tube 70 forwardly through the parawing portion 21 of the inflatable paraglider.
Air valve '75 has depressible valve stem (not shown) for deflating the paraglider when desired. Threadedly mounted in head cap i2 is an excessive pressure relief unit '76, containing a suitable rupture disc, to automatically exhaust pressure gas from propellant tube ill should an emergency occur. Sealing gasket 77 seals the connection of the head cap 12 with the mounting bracket lid and pressure relief unit 76. Appropriate O- ring seals '78, '79, 8b render the gas generating system leak-proof.
Various modifications, changes or alterations may be resorted to without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
