Abstract

Upon the occurrence of a preset event, compressed gas is released from a mber and travels to fill a bellows. The bellows inflates and provides the power to eject a force transfer strut from the cavity of one body. The strut being fixedly attached at one end to a second body, this ejection accomplishes the separation of the two bodies from each other.
