English Translation
S - 2 - So far it has been found that the Gunmi balloons have a diameter of l50 to 200 om. As can be seen from the following sketch, a cylindrical tinplate canister is hung on the balloon. It consists of an outer protective coat and the actual container. The latter has a height of 19 cm and a Durohmesser of l5 em and contains about 2.8 l of a benzol- or petroleum-like liquid. On the composition of the liquidity investigations are initiated at various institutions. The inner container is encased in a 52 om long and 13 cm wide strip of corrugated cardboard, in which an ignition set is inserted in 13 coils. On the outside, numbers from l to 13 are punched at equal intervals, which make it possible to adjust the ignition duration. The ignition set is about 280 cm long and causes the inflammation of the petrol and the never-ending of the balloon. Inside dew liquid holders there are 2 brass tubes, which work according to the principle of the suction lifter and transport the liquid into the liquid distributor attached under the dén canister.The tension of the tear line caused by the ignition line and the flap down into the slanting position is caused by an opening of the overflow valve, thereby driving the balloon at a low height and the let off burning liquid can fully develop its ignition effect. Under the canister is also still a dd dr since its purpose has not yet been determined, since it has been found to be only severely damaged.
