Embodiment Construction

[0046] in figure 1 In the example shown, the device 100 for assisting inflation according to the present invention is composed of an inflatable element 10 fixed to a container 20 containing a compressed air bag C and mated with a protective cap 32.

[0047] The inflatable element 10 is composed of an airtight or watertight flexible material, and may be composed of, for example, layered polyamide or polyethylene, polyurethane, or any other flexible, expandable material having airtightness or watertightness.

[0048] The inflatable element 10 is provided with an opening 11 in which the part P of the container 20 is engaged. The inflatable element is hermetically attached to the end cuff 21 formed on the outer surface of the container 20; the attachment can be obtained by welding, gluing, stamping or any other method that enables the inflatable element 10 to be hermetically attached to the container 20 .

[0049] As in figure 1 As shown in the non-limiting illustration in, the containe...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for aiding inflation (100) of an inflatable item (10) via a cartridge of compressed air (C), said device (100) comprising: an inflatable item (10), a receptacle (20) containing a compressed air cartridge (C) and comprising: a perforating means (28) configured to perforate said cartridge (C) and release the compressed air, at least one discharge hole for discharging the air into the inflatable item (10), a protection cap (32) assembled so that it is sealed against the receptacle (20). The invention is characterised in that the protection cap (32) comprises an actuating means (40) which, when actuated, results in the perforation of the cartridge (C).

Description

Technical field [0001] The subject of the present invention is a device for assisting inflation of an inflatable element. The equipment is specifically used in the practice of water sports. The device is also used for mountain activities, and more generally, for any outdoor activities that may require the use of a positioning device. People who engage in such sports or outdoor activities want to have auxiliary devices or positioning devices that are driven when needed. These auxiliary devices or positioning devices are small in size and do not hinder freedom of movement during the rest of the time. Background technique [0002] Inflatable devices are known, and they can be used to equip people for water sports. [0003] This type of equipment may be in the form of a life jacket or rubber ring, and usually needs to be inflated before sports activities; due to the volume occupied when inflated, it usually limits the user's freedom of movement. [0004] Devices in uninflated form are...
