Abstract:
An exemplary method of actuating an operational device includes activating a propellant in a pyrotechnic pressure generator, the pyrotechnic pressure generator comprising an elongated body having a first end, a second end, and a bore extending axially from a barrier to the second end, a piston slidably disposed in the bore, the propellant located in a chamber between the first end and the barrier, a gas outlet orifice through the barrier providing gas communication between the chamber, and a port at the second end in communication with the operational device; producing a gas in the chamber in response to activating the propellant, the gas escaping through the gas outlet orifice into the bore and the gas applying a force to the piston; moving the piston in a stroke from a position proximate to the barrier to a position proximate to the second end; communicating a pressure to the operational device that is equal to or greater than an operating pressure of the operational device in response to moving the piston; and actuating the operational device in response to communicating the pressure to the operational device.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 7 , further comprising a hydraulic fluid stored in the bore between the piston and the second end prior to the activating of the propellant, wherein substantially all of the hydraulic fluid stored in the pyrotechnic pressure generator is exhausted in response to actuating the operational device.
