Abstract

The invention relates to a pressure-controlled tactical mission life vest used in tactical military operations on and under water. The tactical mission life vest includes a BC valve (1), an oral tube (2), at least two independent inflation tubes (6), at least two detonating mechanisms (8) connected to the inflation tubes (6), a first handle (3), a second handle (7) and a D-like ring buckle system (9) to provide buoyancy to the user and to adjust the user's level in the water. The independent operation of the inflation tubes (6) allows for two separate inflations during the same mission without changing tubes. The BC valve (1) adjusts the amount of air inside the vest. This ensures the user is kept at the desired level on or under the water and allows for a rapid exit from deep water.

The invention is particularly useful in military and tactical operations, where the user can operate on or near water. keeping it at the desired level below, making a rapid exit from deep water, and military 10 pressure-controlled, manual equipment that facilitates swimming motion. with an inflatable and adjustable buoyancy tactical duty life vest It is related. State of the Art 15 Today, life jackets and lifting equipment are used in surface and underwater operations. force compensators are devices worn on the user's body that can be inflated with gas or air. Technique that provides positive lift force to the user through compartments. These are the components. In known systems, buoyancy is generally achieved using carbon dioxide. cartridges, breathing gas cylinders, oral inflation tubes or 20 connected to diving equipment This is achieved through inflation valves. Emergency inflation with disposable gas cartridges in existing flotation equipment. This can be done, and in some diving systems, the air volume inside the vest can be released. It can be adjusted with valves. However, in military operations, the user Because it was carrying weapons, ammunition, communication devices and other tactical equipment, 25 Only civilian-use life jackets or standard diving stabilizers are sufficient. It does not provide technical performance. Especially a second inflation during the mission. 2 This can be achieved by reducing the lift force in a controlled manner according to the operational conditions. The vest can be increased in height, allows for quick exit from deep water, and provides a snug yet fast fit to the body. It must be able to be fixed in place in a removable manner. Examples of patents included in the current technology are: Patent document number US3866253A, titled “Divers buoyancy vest,” describes two 5-inch buoyancy vests for divers.

Purpose of the Invention 15 The purpose of the invention is to eliminate the technical problem inherent in the previous technique; in military and tactical operations, the user's weapons and equipment are on the water. or maintaining the desired level underwater, rapid exit from deep water ensuring that the inflation tube is inflated at least twice during the same task without changing it. This can be done by adjusting the lifting force by the user according to the task conditions, 20 It can be adjusted in a controlled manner and the vest fits snugly to the body but can be removed quickly. a pressure-controlled tactical life vest structure that allows it to be secured in place It is the development of. The invention is intended for tactical military operations conducted on and under the water. Lifting capacity 25, depending on the depth at which the user is located, the load condition, and the mission requirements. The goal is to provide a tactical mission life vest whose force can be adjusted in a controlled manner. The invention involves two independent blasting mechanisms and two connected devices. Since an inflation tube is used, two separate missions can be carried out without changing the inflation tube during a single mission. 4 Inflation can be performed. This structure increases mission continuity and provides a backup in case of emergency. It provides inflation capacity. With this invention, the amount of air inside the vest can be controlled using a BC valve. Thus, the user's level, balance, and position in the water are monitored for the task. It can be adjusted according to the conditions. 5 The invention allows for manual air supplementation via an oral tube. This structure utilizes carbon dioxide. In addition to the gas inflation option, it provides a backup inflation method. The invention allows the user to attach a tactical mission life vest via a D-like ring buckle system.
