Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of position indicating beacons, in particular to a multifunctional life jacket position indicating beacon. Background Art

[0002] A personal portable emergency position indicating beacon is a portable emergency position indicating and alarming device that can be installed on a life jacket or carried with one's body. This device can be manually or automatically activated when falling into water, can work continuously for more than 48 hours in an emergency, and can be widely applied to various search and rescue systems.

[0003] After retrieval, a Chinese patent with the application number CN202021493719.0 discloses a wading rescue Beidou beacon device. The beacon device body is placed in a pocket and can be initially fixed in the pocket through a hook hanging on the pocket and the cooperation of a first magic tape and a second magic tape. Then, the fixing rod passes through the through hole on the hook and fits into the connecting groove, and the magnetic sheet in the connecting groove cooperates with the iron sheet on the fixing rod to further fix the beacon device body, increasing the firmness between the beacon device body and the work clothes. The body includes an upper shell and a lower shell. Through the cooperation of the insertion plate and the second groove, and the cooperation of the rubber layer and the first groove, the upper shell and the lower shell can be hermetically connected, improving the waterproof performance of the beacon device body and preventing water from entering the inside of the shell and damaging the components.

[0004] The above technical solution has the following defects. Although such a position indicating beacon assembly is convenient for stable placement on a life jacket, in actual use, its functions are relatively single. When searching and rescuing at night or when the visibility is low on a cloudy day, it is difficult for rescue personnel to quickly find the accurate location. And when configuring a position indicating flash light, if the lamp is too close to people, it will affect the vision of the person falling into water. Therefore, a multifunctional life jacket position indicating beacon is proposed. A small floating platform is provided for placing the position indicating beacon and the strobe position indicating light, and is connected to the life jacket through a rope, so that the small floating platform and the installed position indicating components can float on the water surface for position indicating work, preventing the position indicating light from being too strong and affecting the sight of the person falling into water. A wire winding assembly is provided, and the small floating platform can be quickly retracted when needed and clamped at the life jacket for carrying.

[0005] In view of this, this creation improves and solves the above problems, conducts painstaking research and combines theoretical application, and finally proposes a technical solution with reasonable design and effective improvement of the above defects.

[0006] The information disclosed in this background art section is only intended to deepen the understanding of the overall background art of the utility model, and should not be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that this information constitutes the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
