Integrated Umbilical Delivery System for Gas, Data, Communications Acquisition /Documentation, Accessory Power and Safety for Users in Adverse Environments
First Claim
1. An umbilical system for sourcing and deploying from the proximal end, within a single flexible protective covering made of any suitable material natural or synthetic, a plurality of differently mixed breathing gasses, safety tether, a plurality of ancillary lines for documentable, multidirectional, multi-format data/communications acquisition, distribution and delivery, personal/situational awareness and ancillary power sources for tool, accessory, sensory or device enervation, to a plurality of User'"'"'s in an adverse environment, whereby a plurality of variable high pressure gas sources communicate with a plurality of Inlet Pressure Regulator(s) operable at select-ably constant pressure, which communicates through flexible high pressure gas lines, with a plurality of deployment systems, which communicates with a plurality of flexible high pressure gas lines made of any suitable material, wherein said high pressure gas lines selectively communicate at the distal end with a plurality of first pressure reducing regulator(s) to deliver said gas to said plurality of Users at suitable pressure;
- or in the alternative, said pressure reducing regulators may communicate with a multiport gas distribution selector manifold that may communicate with a plurality of second pressure reducing regulator(s) to deliver said gas to said plurality of Users at suitable pressure.
