1. A gas generator comprising:

  • a reaction chamber having top and bottom ends;

    a perforated member mounted transversely across the entire reaction chamber for containing a reactant material between the perforated member and one end of the reaction chamber;

    the reaction chamber being adapted to contain liquids which have dissimilar specific gravities, one of the liquids being reactive with the reactant and another of the liquids being nonreactive with the reactant, the reactive and nonreactive liquids having a mutual interface;

    means connected to the reaction chamber for selectively moving the interface of the liquids above or below the perforated member;

    a resilient diaphragm mounted transversely across the reaction chamber; and

    a line connected into the reaction chamber for introducing fluid on one side of the diaphragm so as to reduce the volume between the diaphragm and the perforated member.
