Abstract:
Described are elastic tubular devices including an inner tube (23) made of an elastic and gas impermeable material; and a sheath (21) surrounding the inner tube and made of a woven cloth of flame resistant meta-aramid yarns, wherein the tubular device has a longitudinal extension of at least approximately 1.4 when inflated by a gas having a pressure of at least approximately 0.5 bar.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide a breathing mask for aircraft crewmember. The breathing mask includes an on-demand regulator with an inlet connected to a source of breathing gas and an outlet to exhaust the breathing gas.
