Embodiment Construction

[0018] figure 1 Shown is an emergency vision device 2 integrated into a dashboard as an example according to the invention. The device 2 is applied to an operator station 4, such as an aircraft cockpit, so that the operator can see information sources, such as flight instruments, through the smoke in an emergency event of smoke. In the context of an aircraft cockpit, the operator station 4 includes a windshield 6 and a visor 8 . Apparatus 2 includes an inflatable enclosure 10 having a transparent member 12 and another transparent member 14 that allows an operator 16 to see through the enclosure 10 and windshield 6 in the event of a smoke emergency. This helps the operator control the aircraft and land it safely. The enclosure 10 also includes another transparent member 18 to facilitate the operator to observe the information on the instrument panel 20 . The device 2 comprises a compartment 22 located within the visor 8 . The location of the compartment 22 near where the en...

Abstract

A glare shield equipped with an emergency vision apparatus comprises a glare shield in a cockpit and a compartment recessed into the glare shield. A blower is disposed within the compartment. An inflatable first enclosure made of airtight material and having an expanded form when deployed and a deflated form when not in use is connected to the blower with a tubular air passageway. The first enclosure when in the deflated form is stored within the compartment. First and second clear members are disposed at respective first and second ends of the enclosure to enable a user to see through the first enclosure when expanded and observe a source of information at a distal end of the first enclosure while smoke or other particulate matter is in the environment. A switch operably is associated with the blower to activate the blower and thereby inflate the first enclosure when deployed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device that allows an operator to see a gauge or other source of visual data after smoke and / or particulate matter from a fire or other source enters the operator's operating environment. In particular, the present invention relates to an emergency vision device that utilizes an inflatable enclosure to eliminate gaps along the pilot's line of sight between the pilot and the windshield and / or aircraft instrument panel, and provides visibility to the windshield and / or aircraft instrument panel. Clear vision so the operator can see vital information to guide the aircraft to a safe landing after smoke and / or particulate matter enters the cockpit environment. Background technique [0002] Emergency vision equipment is used to assist pilots to see important information through the smoke that obstructs the line of sight, such as the information provided by the instrument panel and the visual information outside the cockpit, ...
