Publication number: 20190191855Abstract: A pressure relief system for a bag including a backplate having a first end and a second end, opposing front and back sides, first and second sides, and a central region between the first and second sides. A first strap is mounted adjacent the first end of the backplate on the front side and adjacent the first side. A second strap is mounted adjacent the first end of the backplate on the front side and adjacent the second side. The first strap and the second strap cross one another on the back side of the backplate between the first end and the second end. The first strap and the second strap exert a force on the back side of the backplate where the first strap and the second strap cross one another.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 24, 2018Publication date: June 27, 2019Applicant: THE TRUSTEES OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORKInventors: Andrew Hong, Hoon Choi
