摘要： A pressurized container includes a vessel defining a chamber therein. A housing that is connected to the vessel defines an outlet that is fluidly separated from the chamber by a closure member. A moveable member may be seated within and form a seal with the housing and abut the closure member. Activation of an initiator propels the moveable member through the closure member, thereby fluidly connecting the chamber and the outlet. The pressurized container might include an obstruction partially blocking an outlet path and another initiator that breaks the obstruction when activated, thereby further opening the outlet path. The pressurized container might include a main path fluidly connected to the outlet, a first secondary path that connects the main path to the chamber, and a second secondary path that also connects the main path to the chamber. If the pressurized container includes two secondary paths, a first closure member can fluidly separate the outlet from the chamber of the vessel along the first secondary path, and a second closure member can fluidly separate the outlet from the chamber of the vessel along the second secondary path. Also, the chamber might include a first portion and a second portion, wherein an isolator member substantially fluidly separates the first portion and the second portion.

摘要： An apparatus (10) includes an inflator structure (12), a rupturable closure member (48), and an initiator assembly (14). The inflator structure (12) defines a chamber (15) storing inflation fluid (16) at an elevated storage pressure. The closure member (48) is fixed and sealed to the inflator structure (12) to block the inflation fluid from flowing outward from the chamber (15), and is subjected to the storage pressure. The initiator assembly (14) includes pyrotechnic material (88) and a support structure (82, 84) which is mounted on the inflator structure. The support structure (82, 84) adjoins the closure member (48) in a load bearing relationship so as to transmit a storage pressure force from the closure member (48) to the inflator structure (12). When the pyrotechnic material (88) is ignited, it produces combustion products that rupture the support structure (82, 84). The closure member (48) has a specified strength which is low enough for the closure member (48) to be ruptured by the storage pressure independently of the combustion products when the support structure (82, 84) has been ruptured by the combustion products.

摘要： A pack of disposable multi-layered liner sheets suitable for covering non-planar surfaces of medical scanners having a long, hard to clean, bore or tunnel, particularly MRI scanners, to establish a sterile patient environment. Liner sheets are connected end-to-end in a stack by an adhesive or a linear array of perforations to respective succeeding and preceding sheets of the pack. In one embodiment, the pack is secured inside the bore by pegs on the top side of the pack engaging strategically placed clips attached to the bore wall. In other embodiments, the pack is secured inside the bore by opposing sides of a backing layer extending laterally beyond the liner sheets to engage a groove in guide rails affixed inside the bore.

摘要： Combined air bag device and steering column, for use on a vehicle having collision-sensing means and a steering wheel to communicate steering directions to steering mechanism, comprises in one embodiment a hollow tubular steering column connected at its upper end to the steering wheel and at its lower end to the steering mechanism. An elongated tubular reservoir containing pressurized fluid prior to collision is mounted within the hollow tubular steering column, and has an outlet at the upper end thereon. An inflatable cushion is mounted on the steering wheel and closure means is interposed between the outlet of the reservoir and the inlet of the cushion. Opening means, responsive to a signal generated by the collision-sensing means, rapidly opens the closure means thereby to inflate the cushion. In another embodiment, the tubular reservoir is connected at its upper end to the steering wheel and at its lower end to the steering mechanism to function as a steering column communicating rotation of the steering wheel to the steering mechanism.
