Cold gas generator
First Claim
1. A cold gas generator, comprising a pressure chamber (10) that is filled with pressurized gas, a diaphragm (16) that closes said pressure chamber and that is attached at an attachment edge (44) to a bearing wall, a propellant charge (22) arranged outside said pressure chamber (10) for destroying said diaphragm (16), and a support wall (50), which is situated radially inwards from said attachment edge (44) in such immediate vicinity to an interior side (36) of said diaphragm (16) that when an exterior-side pressure is exerted upon it, said diaphragm (16) is deformed towards an interior of said pressure chamber (10) and makes contact with said support wall (50) before being destroyed.

Abstract
A cold gas generator, comprising a pressure chamber that is filled with pressurized gas, a diaphragm that closes the pressure chamber and that is attached at an attachment edge to a bearing wall, a propellant charge arranged outside the pressure chamber for destroying the diaphragm, and a support wall. The support wall is situated radially inwards from the attachment edge in such immediate vicinity to the interior side of the diaphragm that when an exterior-side pressure is exerted upon it, the diaphragm is deformed towards the interior and makes contact with the support wall before being destroyed.
