20110201262 | Rapid Decompression Detection System and Method - A system for monitoring pressure change within at least one compartment of an aircraft is provided. The system includes a primary pressure sensor for providing a signal corresponding to a pressure within a primary compartment of the aircraft, a primary monitoring channel coupled to the primary pressure sensor, and an output driver coupled to the primary monitoring channel. The primary monitoring channel includes a band pass filter for receiving and filtering the primary pressure signal, a pressure change circuit for determining a change in the filtered pressure signal and for providing a pressure change output signal corresponding to the change in pressure, and a threshold logic circuit for determining whether the pressure change output signal meets a predetermined threshold and for providing a threshold output signal indicating that a decompression event has occurred if the pressure change output signal meets the predetermined threshold. The output driver receives the primary threshold output signal and outputs a notification signal. | 08-18-2011 |
20090118876 | DECOMPRESSION VENT LATCHING MECHANISM - A decompression vent latching apparatus, includes a flap placed on a door opening to a first area from a second area, a housing fastened to the flap on the door, a plunger mounted within the housing, having rotational and lateral movement within the housing, a stop block connected to the plunger, a pair of tip blocks having movement restricted by the stop block connected to the plunger when contacting the stop block, the tip blocks being controlled to be a predetermined distance away from the stop block, and a locking unit connected to the pair of tip blocks providing a closed or open position. | 05-07-2009 |
