ABSTRACT:
The passenger flying in today's high altitude commercial jet airplanes is generally seated in a pressurized compartment which in some airplanes has an overhead passenger service unit that houses emergency oxygen masks which are automatically deployed in the event of cabin depressurization. For high density abreast seating arrangements, the passengers seated in the aisle seats may be outside of the reach radius for the emergency oxygen mask drop zone from the overhead storage unit. Therefore, the present invention relates to apparatus comprising a spring cartridge extension device for laterally extending the required number of oxygen masks, upon release of the door to the oxygen mask container; and positioning them over the abreast seating arrangements, so that an oxygen mask is within the reach of each of the seated passengers.
