Elastic airbag restraint systems for vibration and impact protection of astronauts or aircraft passengers
A plastic holder, which retains a crystal blank with standard silvered contacts sandwiched between two copper contacts, protects the crystal against vibration during high acceleration and impact.
Topcoat of epoxy-polyamide paint is effective protection for aluminum alloys against stress corrosion cracking. The paint can be used on unprimed surfaces.
Sensitive electronic components are enclosed in wire mesh for protection. The wire mesh isolates the component from shock and vibration. It acts as a heat sink and as a screen against RF interference.
Supported dual-mode burst diaphragm protects vacuum vessels from transient internal pressures. It forms the interface between the vacuum in the vessel and an external pressure.
Thermocouples are shipped and stored in hollow plastic hoops. The hoop is an inexpensive but efficient method of protection.
Zinc is plated on a magnesium-lithium alloy by using a modification of the standard zinc-plate immersion bath. Further protection is given the alloy by applying a light plating of copper on the zinc plating. Other metals are plated on the copper by using conventional plating baths.
