Abstract

See full text

A breathing system (10) is provided for supplying physiologically acceptable breathing gas (oxygen partial pressure greater than that required to prevent hypoxia) to a pilot of an aircraft. The system (10) includes a breathing mask (12) connected to a pressure regulator (14). The pressure regulator (14) is connected to a selector valve (32). Connected to the selector valve (32) is an onboard oxygen generating system (22) and a standby oxygen supply (24). The selector valve (32) selects breathing gas from one of these two sources. Also included in the system is an emergency oxygen bottle (26) connected to the regulator (14). Ambient air is supplied to the mask (12) by an ambient airflow duct (20) if for some reason none of the breathing gas sources (22, 24, 26) provide breathing gas to the regulator (14).
