Life-Rafts TRIZ Cases
- Nonwoven flexible composites
See how nonwoven substrates with bonded filaments eliminate yarn crimp, reduce weight, and impr
- Nonwoven Flexible Composites for Lightweight Inflatable Structures
Bonded nonwoven filaments with gas-barrier coatings reduce crimp, weight, and coating load in evacuation slides and life rafts.
- Nonwoven Flexible Composites for Lightweight Inflatable Life-Saving Devices
Nonwoven filament substrates cut crimp-related weight and boost tensile strength and air retention in inflatable evacuation slides and life rafts.
- Modular Inflatable Walkway With Midline Fasteners for Multi-User Support
Midline fasteners and internal supports let inflatable mats join into larger floating walkways that stay portable when deflated.
- Multipurpose Flotation Assembly for Human, Pet, and Storage Use
Integrated pet and human flotation with insulated and dry storage forms a seat, raft, or separate float units for safer water use.
- Thermal Battery Power Source for Rapid Inflatable Safety Deployment
A thermal battery replaces compressed gas to power rapid inflation of evacuation slides and life rafts with lower weight and safer handling.
- Solid-State Battery Power Source for Rapid Inflation Systems
Solid-state battery power enables rapid electric inflation of evacuation slides and rafts while reducing compressed gas safety, weight, and size limits.
- Inflator Water Ingestion Prevention with Buoyancy and Self-Righting
Buoyancy devices, self-righting containers, and sensors keep the inflator above water and block air-intake water entry during inflation.
- Orientation Valve Piston Sealing Against Accidental Slide Inflation
A piston and O-ring orientation valve blocks compressed gas in the stored position, preventing accidental evacuation slide inflation in aircraft.
- Integrated Aspirator Valve Assembly for Inflation Pressure Relief
An integrated pressure relief and vent valve isolates relief during inflation, then vents excess pressure to prevent leakage and overpressurization.
- Orientation Valve Piston Sealing for Evacuation Slide Inflation Control
A gravity-actuated piston and O-ring block compressed fluid in storage, preventing accidental evacuation slide inflation until deployment.
- Canopy Support Tube Self-Sealing Valve for Low-Volume Evacuation Slides
A self-sealing valve lets evacuees manually inflate a canopy support tube, then seals by internal pressure to cut slide system volume and cost.
- Guided Rocket Flotation Rescue for Passenger Overboard Detection
An RFID wristband triggers a guided rocket flotation device to reach an overboard passenger faster than vessel turnaround and search.
- Aircraft Emergency Device Actuation Locking for Inadvertent Deployment
A rotatable shaft, safety locks, and linkage assembly prevent accidental aircraft emergency device release while enabling controlled deployment.
- Life Raft Buoyancy Tube Seam Layout for Automated Assembly
Non-overlapping elongated seams simplify life raft buoyancy tube assembly, cutting seam alignment difficulty and enabling faster automation.
- Inflatable Survival Craft With Bow-Stern Vector Propulsion
Independent bow and stern propulsion angles help a loaded inflatable survival craft turn tightly, avoid hazards, and improve evacuation control.
