CONTINUOUSLY TENSIONED TRUSS STRAP

A support arrangement for an inflatable evacuation system may comprise an inflatable member (222, 224) configured to be elongated and stiffened in a longitudinal direction in response to being in an inflated condition, a protrusion (300) extending orthogonal to a surface of the inflatable member (22...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A support arrangement for an inflatable evacuation system may comprise an inflatable member (222, 224) configured to be elongated and stiffened in a longitudinal direction in response to being in an inflated condition, a protrusion (300) extending orthogonal to a surface of the inflatable member (222, 224), a tensile member (230) attached at at least two locations to the inflatable member (222, 224) on opposing sides of the protrusion (300) and being slidably engagable over the protrusion (300) so as to maintain about equal tension in the tensile member (230) on opposing sides of the protrusion (300), and a sleeve (504) attached to the protrusion (300) configured to maintain the tensile member (230) laterally relative to the protrusion (300) even as the tensile member is able to slide longitudinally.
