Abstract

The present invention pertains to the field of life-saving equipment having accommodation for passengers and crew, comprising capsules (1), wherein each capsule (1) is impact-resistant, has an oval shape, and comprises a seat (2), wherein said seat (2) is provided with safety belts (4), wherein a sphere (6) is mounted to withstand an initial impact, such that when they undergo said initial impact, the spheres (6) issue a command to the seat, assisting in cushioning the impact inside the capsule (1), which is oval and formed in two parts, and is further provided with a plurality of airbags (7) strategically fastened to the internal walls, as well as apertures (8) to enable oxygen exchange with the environment, and wherein each capsule additionally comprises a manual safety system equipped with an internal battery for use in the event of aircraft failure.

Claims (1)

  1. CLAIM 1 - "LIFE-SAVING SAFETY SYSTEM APPLIED TO AIRCRAFT", characterized by the fact that it consists of capsules (1), each capsule (1) being armored, having an oval shape and comprising a seat (2), said seat (2) being provided with seat belts (4), in which a sphere (6) will be fixed to resist the first impact, so that upon suffering this first impact, the spheres (6) release a command to the seat, helping to cushion the internal impact of the capsule (1) which has an oval shape, is divided in two and is also provided with a plurality of airbags (7) strategically fixed to the internal walls, as well as holes (8) for the exchange of oxygen with the environment, so that each capsule is also constituted by a manual safety system, which will have an internal battery in case of aircraft failure.

Description

"LIFE-SAVING SAFETY SYSTEM APPLIED TO AIRCRAFT" 1. FIELD OF APPLICATION - This descriptive report concerns the patent for an invention of a novel life-saving safety system applied to small and large aircraft, of innovative design and endowed with important technological and functional improvements, according to the most modern engineering concepts and in accordance with the required standards and specifications, possessing its own characteristics and endowed with fundamental requirements of novelty and inventive activity, resulting in a series of real and extraordinary technical, practical and economic advantages. 2. BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT PATENT - There are currently several means on the market to safeguard the lives of airplane passengers. However, as is known to those skilled in the art, they are inefficient because they do not guarantee one hundred percent rescue. 3. In this sense, some inventors conceived the products that are the subject of the patent documents indicated below, but they did not pay attention to the details of ensuring the complete rescue of the passengers. 4. STATE OF THE ART - Patent document PI 0802892-3, filed on 07/31/2008, entitled "Inflatable Cabin for Aircraft," teaches a set of inflatable structural components capable of withstanding high-impact mechanical shocks, which can be placed around, above, and below a conventional cabin of a land, water, or air vehicle, as well as in the internal or external structure of an aircraft fuselage. Each of the toroidal inflatable components is made of flexible material in such a way as to be stiffened by an air chamber inside, which makes it a body with a high degree of rigidity and mechanical resistance to impact, capable of withstanding collisions at more than 400 km/h without being destroyed, thus saving its occupants. Its resistance to large shocks derives from the fact that, like a soccer ball, such The structures are, in principle, not breakable. High-Impact Inflatable Structural Components (for Aircraft) are basically composed of two types of materials: a flexible one, composed of the air chamber and its various containment and protection layers, and a solid one, composed of flange-shaped connections. The Inflatable Cabin is thus composed of five basic and main components: the Inflatable Cabin formed by the Ti, T2, T3, and T4 toroids, inside which a solid inner cabin is located and protected. The Inflatable Cabin for Aircraft, in addition to not deforming upon impact, also reduces the speed of descent, cushions the shock, is unsinkable in water, and is naturally shielded against fire, smoke, and cold, transforming into a safe and secure survival cell in case of a crash in an inhospitable or very adverse climate, until rescue arrives. Inflatable aircraft components can also be used in civil engineering, in the construction of towers, floating platforms, pavilions and bridges, boats, bumpers, among other applications. They are primarily intended for use in ultralight and medium-sized aircraft. 5. Patent document PI 0204219-3, filed on 09/23/2002, entitled "Parachute for Aircraft," describes a design created to provide greater safety in air travel in case of mechanical failures or natural disasters. For example, the descriptive report states that models four and five only developed a design through the use of handles and a parachute together to create a balloon-like effect. This is because if the plane crashes into the sea, it won't sink. All models are designed to prevent air accidents and, most importantly, to save human lives, the objects they transport, and aircraft. There are five different model designs: parachute, hang glider, and balloon. The intended use is the same. The engine will preferably be placed next to the tail because it acts as a windbreak and is better for centralizing devices attached to each handle. Inside the aircraft, there will be a control panel equipped with a light indicator and speedometer. The controls include altitude speed and on/off buttons for the parachute. For example: the first button is to turn on the motor and the automatic strap deployment, the second to break the seal and expel the straps and open the parachute in the air, the third button to put the straps and parachute back in place; this will also depend on the electrical technology. 6. Patent document PI 9909140-2, filed on 09/03/1999, entitled "Propulsion system for an aircraft," describes a propulsion system comprising at least two independent internal combustion engines positioned directly side-by-side and synchronized, each acting on a common drive shaft. Each separate propulsion connection is provided with means to cut the connection when there is a significant drop in power (theoretical breakpoints, automatic decoupling). 7. Analyzing the aforementioned documents and those known from the state of the art, as can be observed, none fully presents the constructive characteristics of the system that is the subject of this patent. 8.
