Abstract
A balancing jacket for scuba divers includes at least two valves for discharge of air. All the valves are connected to a pneumatic-control pipe, and preferably at least one of the valves is located in the bottom part of the balancing jacket and at least one in the top part. The air-discharge valves are air valves of the open-close type with spring-operated return combined with non-return valves to prevent any entry of water into the jacket.
