A light-emitting apparatus includes: a flexible base body; and a light-emitting component which is attached to the base body, has a form which changes flexibly following a change in the firm of the base body, and includes: a light guide which guides laser light that enters one end of the light guide; a leaking means for causing part of the laser light guided by the light guide to leak out of the light guide in a direction which crosses a light-guiding direction; and a first light-emitter which extends along the light-guiding direction and emits light based on the part of the laser light that is leaked out of the light guide by the leaking means.

This flotation device for oxygen tanks is created to allow anyone dependent upon supplemental oxygen to utilize the pool or shallow water for recreation, exercise or therapy. Having their tank close to them in the pool or shallow waters, allows for more freedom of movement and safety for themselves and for others. The flotation device for oxygen tanks includes a base member flotation board with attachment members that include flotation tubes, straps, buckles and a grommet to secure the tank to the base member.

There is disclosed a method and system for determining the partial pressure of at least one gas in a mixture of gasses contained in a pressure vessel, in particular a pressure vessel in the form of a life support pressure chamber/decompression chamber, or a diving gas storage cylinder. The method comprises the steps of: coupling a gas analysis sensor (14) to a pressure vessel (10); directing a portion of the mixture of gasses in the pressure vessel to the sensor for analysis; reducing the pressure of the portion of the mixture which is to be analysed by the sensor to a level which is below the pressure in the vessel but above local atmospheric pressure; operating the sensor to measure the partial pressure of the at least one gas at the reduced pressure level; and using the partial pressure of the at least one gas, measured at the reduced pressure level, to determine the actual partial pressure of said gas in the mixture contained in the vessel.

A human-powered underwater propulsor for user's moving in water mainly has a power generating module provided within a receiving space inside a waterproof airbag, and the power generating module is coupled to a propulsion unit. The receiving space is formed with an opening end provided with a waterproof ring to be worn by user in such a manner that the receiving space is hermetically sealed to prevent water from entering the receiving space during diving. When user pedals by stepping on two pedals of the power generating module, the power generating module is actuated to cause the flapping of the propulsion unit. Hence, the human-powered underwater propulsor allows user to exercise his feet in the air to reduce drag in diving so that user can moves more easily in the water.

Thermal warming suits for a human occupant of a wet submersible vehicle are described. The thermal warming suits provide a dedicated envelope configured to encase at least a portion of the human occupant in a deformable suit that can be assembled around or donned, as well as be removed, by the occupant or others before or after entry and seating in or on the wet submersible vehicle, while underwater or surfaced. The suits provide a deformable, weight and space (i.e. volume) conscious, collapsible loose fitting perimeter around the occupant. The suits can be used to create a pneumatic barrier around at least a portion of the occupant by using a gas such as air provided from a gas reservoir to force water from the interior of the suit.
