  • Patent number: 7530613
    Abstract: An apparatus for connecting and disconnecting two objects comprises: a housing formed as a hollow type, and having one closed end to which a first object is connected and another opened end; a coupling portion mounted in the housing so as to be movable in an axial direction of the housing, and to which a second object is connected; a clamping portion coupled to the housing for clamping the coupling portion; a cylinder disposed in the housing for pressurizing the clamping portion so that a clamped state of the coupling portion by the clamping portion can be maintained; and a gas generator integrally coupled to an outer surface of the housing so as to be in communication with inside of the housing for generating gas of a high pressure thereby releasing a clamped state of the coupling portion and separating the coupling portion from the housing. Two objects are easily connected or disconnected to/from each other by the simple construction.

  • Patent number: 7437872
    Abstract: An object separating apparatus uses gas and has a hollow housing with a closed end connected to a first object, and an opened end. An axially movable cylinder is installed at an inner space of the housing and a piston assembly is coupled to the cylinder and connected to a second object at an outer end. A fixing portion between the housing and the cylinder and the piston assembly fixes the cylinder and the piston assembly into the housing. A gas generator communicates with the inner space, wherein when the gas generator is operated, the gas generator pressurizes the cylinder to release the cylinder from the piston assembly and to separate the cylinder and the piston assembly from the housing.

  • Publication number: 20070186547
    Abstract: An object separating apparatus using gas comprising a hollow housing of which closed end is connected to a first object and the other end is opened, a cylinder movably installed at an inner space of the housing in an axial direction of the housing, a piston assembly coupled to the cylinder at the inner space and connected to a second object at an outer end thereof where is exposed to the outside of the housing, a fixing portion disposed between the housing and the cylinder and the piston assembly to fix the cylinder and the piston assembly into the housing, and a gas generator mounted in the housing to be communicated with the inner space, wherein when the gas generator is operated, the gas generator pressurizes the cylinder to thus release the fixed state between the cylinder and the piston assembly by the fixing portion and simultaneously to separate the cylinder and the piston assembly from the housing, whereby a simple construction can be achieved and the first and second objects can effectively be separa
