Abstract
A manifold for use with an inflatable article such as a life raft, life vest, and other articles used in aircraft and marine safety and the like, an improved puncture pin and dual cam drive system for positive control of the puncture pin, an improved means for positioning the cam lever arm, an improved positive dynamic seal of the puncture pin, and an emergency bleed system in case of puncture failure. The manifold body is preferably an integral molding of strong and impact resistant plastic material with a continuous passage within the molded plastic that provides a path for the compressed gas of the attached cartridge to flow to the desired article to be inflated, eliminating any possible areas of leakage.
