Abstract:
1. A ballistic barrier curtain deployment system comprising: a barrier curtain storage container having an opening located along an upper portion of a curtain storage section; a set of ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanism, each ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanism in communication with a respective end of the barrier curtain storage container; each ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanism comprising: a ballistic barrier curtain having a first vertical deploying edge and a second vertical deploying edge, the first vertical deploying edge in operable communication with the first curtain deployment element, passing through the respective curtain support channel, and the second vertical deploying edge in operable communication with the second curtain deployment element, passing through the respective curtain support channel, wherein in operation, the activation controller directs deployment of the at least one deployment firing mechanism, the at least one deployment firing mechanism discharges a rapid deploying gas which drives the respective ballistic barrier curtain edge towards a distal end of the curtain deployment support column, thus deploying the ballistic barrier curtain.
