Embodiment Construction
[0029]Referring now to FIG. 1, we observe a side isometric view of a pressure relief valve 2 mounted at the top of structure 4. Structure 4 comprises door 6 and windows 8. FIG. 2 is a side isometric view of valve 2 which has opened to relieve air pressure internal to structure 4. As may be observed in FIG. 2, valve 2 seats in valve seat 3, which is disposed around structure valve aperture 7. Spoiler 15 is disposed around the edge of valve 2. Unless opened by internal pressure within structure 4, valve 2 is normally spring-loaded, and / or urged by gravity, into the closed position depicted in FIG. 1. In the preferred embodiment, an internal structure pressure of as little as 1.5 pounds per square inch (psi) sufficed to open valve 2.
[0030]Referring now to FIG. 2, storm wind 14 has breached a window 8 such as may occur during a hurricane, and is now blowing into structure 4 via broken window 10. Valve 2 has opened against its spring-loaded mounting as indicated by arrow 16, and is permi...
