Abstract
A locking mechanism, in particular suitable for use in a decompression arrangement, includes a pressure chamber surrounded by a delimiting wall, wherein at least a section of the pressure chamber delimiting wall is formed by an actuating element which is in a rest position when the pressure in the interior of the pressure chamber corresponds to the ambient pressure and moves into a differential pressure position when the pressure in the interior of the pressure chamber exceeds the ambient pressure by a predetermined differential value. The locking mechanism further includes a locking bar which is kept in a locked position when the actuating element is in its rest position and is movable into an unlocked position when the actuating element is in its differential pressure position.
