<p>A release mechanism for releasing an article such as a life raft from a ship includes an aneroid chamber (2) sealed by a flexible diaphragm (10) which normally maintains a latching mechanism (30) in a locked condition to prevent release of the article from stowage. When the diaphragm (10) is depressed either by ambient pressure exceeding the pressure in the aneroid chamber (2), or by a manual operation, the movement of the diaphragm (10) frees the latching mechanism (30) to allow the release mechanism to release the article from its stowage.</p> |
