ABSTRACT:
An extractor system for extracting hazardous smoke or other unwanted gases in aircraft is provided. The extractor system includes an external air receiver mounted on the exterior of the aircraft, a vent receptacle positioned inside an aircraft, and an air flow conduit tubing interconnecting the receiver and the vent receptacle. When the aircraft is in motion, air flow outside the aircraft enters the external air receiver and induces a suction force at the vent receptacle, which siphons out smoke and other unwanted gases in the interior of the aircraft. The system also includes a valve to control the suction force induced at the vent receptacle. Alternatively, the extractor system can be used on other moving vessels for extracting smoke or other unwanted gases in the vessels.
