Altitude Release Mechanism

View page
US Patent:
40560007, Nov 1, 1977
Filed:
Mar 16, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/778188
Inventors:
Frank C. Kulhanek - Hinsdale IL
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the United States Energy
Research and Development Administration - Washington DC
International Classification:
G01W 108
US Classification:
73170R
Abstract:
An altitude release mechanism for releasing a radiosonde or other measuring instrument from a balloon carrying it up into the atmosphere includes a bottle partially filled with water, a tube sealed into the bottle having one end submerged in the water in the bottle and the free end extending above the top of the bottle and a strip of water-disintegrable paper held within the free end of the tube linking the balloon to the remainder of the package. As the balloon ascends, the lowered atmospheric air pressure causes the air in the bottle to expand, forcing the water in the bottle up the tubing to wet and disintegrate the paper, releasing the package from the balloon.
