Abstract: The present invention is a flexible, fillable and/or inflatable breach bag (aqua ram) with a planar body and at least one fillable water chamber for use in breaching locked or barricaded doors or penetrating surfaces with explosive charges. The breach bag may conform to a variety of shapes, depending on the application. The bag generally includes a generally planar panel of flexible material and at least one water chamber disposed on the material layer with a fluid inlet for the selective introduction of fill material, generally in the field. Additionally, the bags include means to suspend the breach bag against structures to be breached.
Abstract: The present invention is a flexible, fillable and/or inflatable breach bag with a planar body and at least one fillable bladder for use in breaching locked or barricaded doors or penetrating surfaces with explosive charges. The breach bag may conform to a variety of shapes, depending on the application. The bag generally includes a panel of flexible material having at least two material layers, including a plurality of seams joining at least two of the material layers to form at least one bladder between the material layers for the selective of fill material, generally in the field. The bladders include fluid inlets providing fluid access to said bladder for filling said bladder with fill material. Additionally, the bags include means to suspend the breach bag against structures to be breached.
Abstract: A waterbed having peripheral resilient cushions for supporting its perimeter, said cushions being retained in position by means of a plurality of slings formed by inward extensions secured to the liner at a distance away from the vertical projection of the cushion itself such that when a water bag is inserted within the liner and the cushions, the weight of the water tends to compress the sides of the slings together thereby applying inward force on the cushions to somewhat counteract the outward force of the water itself.
Abstract: Waterbed mattress having an internal honeycomb baffle structure for preventing undesired wavelike motion of the water within the mattress. The honeycomb structure is detached from the top wall so that it does not interfere with the normal flotation support of the mattress. Openings in the baffle structure permit the water to circulate and prevent the formation of "hot spots" in the mattress.
