    摘要: This invention discloses an inflator mechanism for rafts and life vests that performs a multitude of functions required for rescue and underwater deployment of personnel and devices. The inner cylinder in this disclosure is actuated by a plethoria of inputs, manual, automatic selectable pressure sensing, or dualled hydrostatic sensors which can each be safely selected by function selection. Since the inflator uses spring discs to drive a penetrator which mechanically punctures a membrane of an inflation gas source and actuated by an electronically controlled solenoid, dissolvable elements, conductivity switches and preset check valve actuators are eliminated increasing the safety and reliability of the actuator. Electronic control further permits user enabling of inflation depth actuation and the multiple water sensors prevent failure of actuation due to splashes and humidity effects on sensors. The actuator mechanism is self cocking, indicates proper installation of gas source enables use of several gas source cylinders and is multiply reusable.

    摘要: measurement device for monitoring the level of liquefied gas in a canister is described. The device comprises an array of at least three temperature sensors, configured to be mounted externally of the canister to extend from a first position on the canister to a second position on the canister. The device also comprises detection circuitry for detecting, when gas is released from the canister causing a temperature drop at the liquid-gas interface within the canister, a subset of the temperature sensors measuring a lower temperature than the remainder of the temperature sensors, and for identifying a current level of the liquefied gas in the canister based on the position within the array of the subset of the temperature sensors detected as measuring a lower temperature. This arrangement can be retrofitted to any canister, without the need to modify the canister or change the valve arrangement.
