The present invention consists of a device especially configured for enabling locating an aircraft quickly which due to an accident has fallen in an area where the search for the remains is especially difficult, such as the sea or mountainous areas. It is made up of a container (1) with an automated lock (7) divided internally into two chambers (2 and 3) in which metal sheets (4) and hollow spheres (5) are introduced; an attached beacon (6), a memory circuit (14); and it is operated by means of an automated control. All these elements form an assembly as a result of a protective and waterproof shell (8) joining them together. It also has an anchor (10) joining it to the outer part of the aircraft where it is arranged, which allows automating the release of the device as the result of a signal indicating the imminence of an accident.

L'invention consiste en un dispositif spécialement conçu pour permettre la localisation rapide d'un aéronef qui, lors d'un accident, est tombé dans une zone où la recherche des débris s'avère particulièrement difficile, notamment en mer ou dans des zones montagneuses. Ce dispositif comprend un contenant (1) à fermeture automatisée (7), divisé intérieurement en deux compartiments (2 et 3) renfermant des feuilles métalliques (4) et des sphères creuses (5), une radiobalise annexe (6) et un circuit de mémoire (14). Il est actionné au moyen d'une commande automatisée. Tous ces éléments forment un ensemble du fait de l'utilisation d'une enveloppe (8) protectrice et imperméable assurant leur jonction. Le dispositif comprend également un ancrage (10) qui le relie à la partie extérieure de l'aéronef où il est disposé, ce qui permet d'automatiser la libération du dispositif en réponse à un signal indiquant l'imminence d'un accident.
