Abstract
Disclosed is a gas pressure actuator whose actuator body has a cylinder, a piston and a gas generator in which a powder is loaded, and the gas generator is positioned at an end portion of the cylinder. The gas generator injects a high pressure gas into the cylinder by the combustion of the powder, thereby moving the piston. The actuator body is provided with a coating which covers the entire actuator body from outside. The coating is a resin coating having electrically insulating, waterproof, and dustproof characteristics.
Claims8
A gas pressure actuator whose actuator body has
- a cylinder,
- a piston having an end portion exposed from an end portion of the cylinder, and
- a gas generator in which a gas generating agent is loaded, the gas generator injecting a high pressure gas into the cylinder as a result of a reaction of the gas generating agent, and thereby allowing the piston to project and move m the cylinder, thereby actuating the piston only one time, wherein
- the actuator body is provided with a coating in an end portion of the actuator body at a side from which at least the piston is exposed,
- the coating being fractured by the actuation of the piston projecting and moving from the cylinder by the high pressure gas injected from the gas generating agent, and covering an area ranging from the end portion of the piston to the end portion of the cylinder from outside.
