[0020] A piston 2 is installed in the inner cavity, and the piston 2 has the freedom of axial translation in the inner cavity;

[0021] A plugging cover 1, which blocks the rear end of the housing 3;

[0022] The third nozzle 6, the fourth nozzle 8 and the emergency discharge hole 7 all have an axial spacing, and the third nozzle 6 is located between the fourth nozzle 8 and the emergency discharge hole 7;

[0023] The piston 2 has two extreme positions along the axis in the inner cavity, namely, an emergency position and a working position. When the piston 2 is in the working position, the piston 2 contacts the first nozzle 4, and a cavity is provided on the side of the piston 2, the cavity is connected to the third nozzle 6 and the fourth nozzle 8, and the second nozzle 5 is blocked by the wall of the piston 2;

[0025] In some optional embodiments, the emergency discharge hole 7 has a shear pin, which limits the displacement of the piston 2 toward the emergency position when the piston 2 is located in the working position, and the shear pin will break under a preset force.

[0026] In some optional embodiments, the axial distances between the third nozzle 6 and the fourth nozzle 8, and between the fourth nozzle 8 and the emergency discharge hole 7 are equal.

[0029] When this application is implemented, it is used for the canopy operating system.
