Abstract:
Floating stretcher, designed, in particular, for recovering injured persons at sea, of the type including a metallic framework (1) capable of being winched by helicopter and supporting a panel of composite material (2) ensuring the buoyancy of the whole, characterized in that the panel of composite material (2) is pivotably fixed to the front of the metallic framework (1) and in that means (25, 34) are provided for maintaining the said panel (2) either in a position inclined at a given angle in relation to the plane of the framework (1) and above the latter, or in the plane of the framework.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an engine (1) including: —a chamber (3) designed to accommodate a working fluid, —a first piston (4) defining the volume of said chamber (3), —a first passage (5) located in said first piston (4) to supply the chamber (3) with working fluid and/or to discharge from the chamber (3) the burned fluid resulting from the combustion of the working fluid, —a first valve (6) mounted on the first piston (4) to monitor the opening and closing of said first passage (5), —an output shaft (8) that engages with the first piston (4) to convert the motion of the first piston (4) into rotational motion of the output shaft (8), characterized in that the output shaft (8) and the first valve (6) engage to convert the motion of output shaft (8) into motion of the first valve (6).
Abstract:
Floating stretcher designed, in particular, for the recovery of injured persons at sea, of the type including a metallic framework (1) capable of being winched by a helicopter, supporting a panel (2) of composite material ensuring the buoyancy of the whole, characterized in that the panel (2) and the framework (1) are hinged (27, 6) in their median portion, so that the whole can be folded back on itself lengthwise.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a stretcher comprising first and second support arms to which and between which a means for receiving an individual is intended to be attached, said first arm comprising first and second end elements, and also a first cable attached to said end elements in order to be tensioned between these in a first longitudinal direction, said stretcher comprising a first crosspiece connected to said first and second arms, positioned between the latter and designed to change between retracted and deployed configurations, such that, in the retracted configuration, said first element and first crosspiece are connected by a mechanical connection permitting a degree of freedom in translation in said first direction, and such that, in the deployed configuration, said connection inhibits said degree of freedom. The invention is particularly suitable for the production of stretchers having a reduced size when not in use.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a stretcher intended for transporting patients, comprising a frame including poles, the ends of which act as carrying handles, said frame being equipped with at least one attachment system making it possible to attach at least one piece of equipment for providing assistance to a patient being transported, as well as a series of trays constituting a lying surface which can be articulated according to the desired positions for the patient, said articulated trays being attached via articulation systems to the frame, said trays being provided with a system for holding the patient. Stretchers for transporting patients.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for protecting a detachable equipment anchoring rail having adjustable dimensions, which is lockable, tamper-proof, reusable and consists of elements which are interconnected in such a way as to be secured and deployable and to provide, whatever the level of deployment thereof, all of the functions for protecting the rail against any type of aggression via a locking system.
Abstract:
A coupling device (1) comprises an attachment (6) capable of varying between an attachment configuration and a release configuration, said coupling device (1) being characterized in that it further comprises a support member (7) designed to vary between an in-use configuration in which it supports the weight of said coupling device (1) while allowing it to move, and secondly a rest position in which it does not support the weight of said coupling device (1), the attachment (6) and the support member (7) being designed to vary between their respective configurations independently of each other.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an engine (1) including: —a chamber (3) designed to accommodate a working fluid, —a first piston (4) defining the volume of said chamber (3), —a first passage (5) located in said first piston (4) to supply the chamber (3) with working fluid and/or to discharge from the chamber (3) the burned fluid resulting from the combustion of the working fluid, —a first valve (6) mounted on the first piston (4) to monitor the opening and closing of said first passage (5), —an output shaft (8) that engages with the first piston (4) to convert the motion of the first piston (4) into rotational motion of the output shaft (8), characterized in that the output shaft (8) and the first valve (6) engage to convert the motion of output shaft (8) into motion of the first valve (6).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a container of the type comprising two encasing elements (1, 2) which can be fitted one on the other in order to define the storage space for the load to be transported. According to the invention, this container includes within the storage space, at least one cradle (5) for the support of the load, articulated at one end (at 6) on a frame (4) securely fastened to the base of a first encasing element (1) in order to be capable of being displaced between a horizontal position on said frame and an erect position above the latter, after removal of the second encasing element (2), a crutch (9) for locking the support cradle in erect position being furthermore provided. This container is intended more particularly for the transportation of ejectable aircraft seats or any other load to be handled with care.
