Abstract

A self-inflating object (10, 110, 210) includes an expandable body (12, 112) and an inflating mechanism (14, 114) at least partially disposed within the body. The inflating mechanism includes a canister (16, 116) of compressed propellant. The inflating mechanism (14, 114) is actuable to release propellant from the canister in a controlled manner to inhibit freezing of the inflating mechanism and/or the expandable body as the propellant expands thereby to inflate the expandable body.
