DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] See also Figure 1-3 A self-propelled life jacket in this embodiment includes a vest 1, the outside of the vest 1 is connected to a threaded insertion rod 101, the outside of the vest 1 is connected to a buckle 2, the lower part of the vest 1 is connected to a leg strap 3, the inside of the leg strap 3 is provided with a plug hole 301, one side of the leg strap 3 is connected to a connecting rope 302, one side of the connecting rope 302 is connected to a link 303, the inner side of the link 303 is connected to a rotating rod 304, one side of the rotating rod 304 is connected to a threaded cylinder 305, the outside of the vest 1 is connected to a first insert pocket 4, the inside of the first insert pocket 4 is connected to a first automatically inflated airbag 401, one side of the first insert pocket 4 is connected to a first zipper 402, the outside of the vest 1 is connected to a second insert pocket 5, the inside of the second insert pocket 5 is connected to a second automatically inflated airbag 501, and one side of the second insert pocket 5 is connected to a second zipper 502.

[0024] In the case implementation, there are two leg straps 3, and the two leg straps 3 are distributed on the left and right. One end of the leg strap 3 is connected to the back side of the vest 1, and the threaded rod 101 is located on the front side of the vest 1. The socket 301 is plugged into the threaded rod 101, the link 303 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 304, and the threaded tube 305 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 101. One end of the leg strap 3 is located between the vest 1 and the threaded tube 305, so the leg strap 3 and the vest 1 are easy to disassemble and assemble, and the leg strap 3 and the vest 1 can be stably connected and not easy to fall off, so that the installation stability during use is high.

[0025] In the case implementation, after falling into the water, the first automatic inflatable airbag 401 and the second automatic inflatable airbag 501 are immersed in water, the water-sensitive element in the automatic device softens the striker and loses its blocking spring, which stretches and pushes the striker to pierce the sealing membrane of the gas cylinder. CO2 gas is filled into the airbag to generate buoyancy. No manual operation is required to prevent the people who fall into the water from panicking and being unable to operate to save themselves. When not falling into the water, the first automatic inflatable airbag 401 and the second automatic inflatable airbag 501 are deflated and will not cause inconvenience to the user.

[0026] In the case implementation, the first insert pocket 4 and the second insert pocket 5 are both C-shaped, and the first insert pocket 4 and the second insert pocket 5 are both located in the middle section of the vest 1. After the first automatic inflatable airbag 401 or the second automatic inflatable airbag 501 is inflated, it is located under the armpit of the user similar to a swimming ring. The first insert pocket 4 and the second insert pocket 5 are not connected to each other, and the first insert pocket 4 and the second insert pocket 5 are distributed up and down. The first zipper 402 and the second zipper 502 are respectively located on the side where the first insert pocket 4 and the second insert pocket 5 are close to each other. The first automatic inflatable airbag 401 is plugged into the first insert pocket 4, and the second automatic inflatable airbag 501 is plugged into the second insert pocket 5. Therefore, the first automatic inflatable airbag 401 can be connected or separated from the first insert pocket 4, and the second automatic inflatable airbag 501 can be connected or separated from the second insert pocket 5, which facilitates the replacement of the first automatic inflatable airbag 401 or the second automatic inflatable airbag 501, making the use cost low.

[0027] When implementing, follow these steps:

[0028] 1) The user puts on the vest 1 and locks the buckle 2;

[0029] 2) Then pass the two leg straps 3 from back to front between the legs, and connect one end of the leg strap 3 to the threaded rod 101 and the vest 1 stably through the threaded tube 305;

[0030] 3) After falling into the water, the first automatic inflatable airbag 401 and the second automatic inflatable airbag 501 inflate automatically;

[0031] 4) When the first automatic inflating airbag 401 or the second automatic inflating airbag 501 is damaged, the first automatic inflating airbag 401 or the second automatic inflating airbag 501 may be replaced.

[0032] In summary, the self-propelled life jacket has a leg strap 3 and a vest 1 that are easy to assemble and disassemble, and the leg strap 3 and the vest 1 can be stably connected and are not easy to fall off, so that the installation stability during use is high.

[0033] Furthermore, when not falling into water, the first automatically inflating airbag 401 and the second automatically inflating airbag 501 are deflated, which will not cause inconvenience to the user. When falling into water, the first automatically inflating airbag 401 and the second automatically inflating airbag 501 can be inflated by themselves without manual operation, so as to prevent the person who falls into water from panicking and being unable to operate to save themselves. The second automatically inflating airbag 501 and the second insert bag 5 can be connected or separated, so as to facilitate the replacement of the first automatically inflating airbag 401 or the second automatically inflating airbag 501, so that the use cost is low, which solves the problems of the wearer's inconvenience in movement and high use cost.
