Abstract:
1. A locking mechanism for use in a decompression arrangement, comprising: a pressure chamber surrounded by a delimiting wall, wherein at least a section of the pressure chamber delimiting wall is formed by an actuating element which is in a rest position when the pressure in an interior of the pressure chamber corresponds to ambient pressure and moves into a differential pressure position when the pressure in the interior of the pressure chamber exceeds the ambient pressure by a predetermined differential value; and a locking bar which is kept in a locked position when the actuating element is in its rest position and is axially movable in an axial direction of the locking bar from the locked position to an unlocked position when the actuating element is in its differential pressure position; wherein the actuating element includes a first section and a second section which is connected in an articulated manner to the first section, and wherein at least one of an end of the first section which faces away from the second section and an end of the second section of the actuating element which faces away from the first section is supported in an articulated manner.
