Abstract: Cette invention concerne une soupape (20) destinée à un coussin gonflable (A) doté de zones de gonflage distinctes (r,s,t,u). Ce coussin comprend une enveloppe (22) définissant un espace intérieur (24) et une pluralité d'ouvertures (26, 28, 30 et 32) le long de l'enveloppe, qui sont reliées aux zones de gonflage individuelles par des conduits d'air et une glissière mobile (34) dans l'alésage de l'enveloppe. Cette glissière comporte un certain nombre d'ouvertures (38, 40, 42, et 44) sur sa longueur qui communiquent avec un conduit interne (36). Pour ouvrir la soupape, on aligne les ouvertures de la glissière sur celles de l'enveloppe, ce qui permet aux zones de gonflage de communiquer via le conduit de la glissière. Pour fermer la soupape, on déplace les ouvertures de la glissière par rapport à celles de l'enveloppe, ce qui obture les zones de gonflage.
