    摘要: A method, apparatus (800), and system (900) for a water activated neck seal tension relief device are described. The system (900) includes a liner (902), such as that of a protective suit, and an actuator apparatus (800) disposed within the liner (902). The apparatus (800) includes a resilient member (200) and a coupling (802), the coupling (802) including a body (600) configured to receive a first (810) and a second (808) portion of the resilient member (200). The liner (902), body (600) and resilient member (200) define a substantially circular opening. A restraint (804) is mounted on the body (600) and configured to restrain the second portion (808) of the resilient member (200) in relation to the body (600) to maintain the resilient member (200) in a first position at which the opening has a first diameter (702). The restraint (804) is configured to release the second portion (808) of the resilient member (200) when the restraint (804) is exposed to water.
