<p>A deployment control for an inflatable escape slide (10) for use in a structure such as an aircraft (13) is disclosed, wherein the escape slide has an inboard end (12) and an toe end (51). The inboard end of the slide is suitably attached to an egress on the structure for deployment and extension of the slide by inflation means (16) whereby the slide extends from an elevated egress to a ground support. The slide has inflatable tubes with a slide surface. The inflation means is operative upon actuation to provide pressurized fluids to the tubes which will inflate and distend the tubes in to a longitudinally extending escape slide under the control of a restraining control device (11) (or devices). Such device is operative upon pressurization of the tubes to deploy an outboard portion of the slide to which one end of the device is connected to move relative to the inboard end of the slide to which the other end of the device is connected at a controlled rate for a predetermined length of the slide.</p> |
