  • Patent number: 10137318
    Abstract: A demand regulator (1) for aircraft breathing device (100) comprising: —a respiratory chamber (9) supplied with respiratory gas comprising breathable gas and dilution gas, —a breathable gas supply line (12, 13), —a dilution gas supply line (14, 15), —a first adjusting device (50, 60) of non-electrical type adjusting the pressure in the respiratory chamber (9), and —a second adjusting device (22, 24, 40, 41-49) adjusting the rate of dilution gas in the respiratory gas supplied to the respiratory chamber (9), the second adjusting device comprising a dilution valve (24) disposed in the dilution gas supply line (14, 15), a sensor (41-49) and an electrical control unit (40) adjusting the rate of dilution gas in the respiratory gas by controlling the dilution valve (24).

  • Publication number: 20180304107
    Abstract: A protective system for aircraft pilot comprises a breathing mask, an eye protection and a safety device. The breathing mask is designed to supply the pilot with a respiratory gas and the breathing mask comprises an oxygen supply duct intended to be connected to an aircraft cockpit. The eye protection comprises a screen intended to extend between the pilot's eyes and an external space. The safety device comprises a display device and a support. The display device is able to display, notably in front of a pilot's eye, information intended to assist in the piloting of the aircraft. The support carries the display device so as to keep the display of information in front of the pilot's eye.

  • Patent number: 9808655
    Abstract: A method for determining a characteristic such as partial pressure or percentage of a gaseous constituent in a first gas mixture flow in a flow chamber in which there is alternating flow in opposite directions between the first gas mixture flow and a second gas mixture flow. The steps may include a) introducing the first gas mixture flow into a sensing chamber when the first gas mixture flow flows in the flow chamber, b) preventing introduction of gas from the flow chamber into the sensing chamber at least when the second gas mixture flow flows in the flow chamber, c) sensing the characteristic of the first gas mixture flow in the sensing chamber.

  • Publication number: 20170007859
    Abstract: A gas pressure reducer (100) comprises a mobile element (2) arranged for driving a pressure regulating valve (5) according to a pressure force, a biasing element (3) for pushing the mobile element toward a rest position, and an electrically-powered master system which acts on the biasing element for varying a return force of said biasing element. The master system allows varying a reference pressure value for the regulation of the pressure existing at a low pressure gas outlet (1 LP). When the master system is no longer electrically supplied, the mobile element (2) is driven by the pressure force with respect to a last value of the return force existing just before electrical supply of said master system has stopped.

  • Patent number: 9227091
    Abstract: Oxygen regulator (1) to deliver breathing gas in a cabin (10) of an aircraft comprising a first inlet (12) for pressurized breathing oxygen, a second inlet (14) for diluter gas, an outlet (16) to provide a breathing mixture to a user, and a regulation device adjusting the concentration of breathing oxygen in the breathing mixture. The regulation device comprises a emergency device (30) that adjusts the concentration of breathing oxygen in the breathing mixture as a function of a variation speed of the cabin altitude.

  • Publication number: 20120325207
    Abstract: A method for determining a characteristic such as partial pressure or percentage of a gaseous constituent in a first gas mixture flow (32) in a flow chamber (30) where flows alternatively said first gas mixture flow (32) and a second gas mixture flow (34) comprising the following steps: a) introducing the first gas mixture flow (32) into a sensing chamber (40) when the first gas mixture flow (32) flows in the flow chamber (30), b) preventing introduction of gas from the flow chamber (30) into the sensing chamber (40) at least when the second gas mixture flow (34) flows in the flow chamber (30), c) sensing said characteristic of the first gas mixture flow (32) in the sensing chamber (40).
