[0002] In recent years, tsunamis have occurred more and more frequently. When a tsunami strikes, a large number of casualties are caused due to short warning time or lack of sufficient evacuation time for residents. A spherical life-saving device has been studied to address tsunamis. The device is waterproof and fireproof and can accommodate multiple people. However, due to its high cost, it has not been mass-produced, and its stability when floating cannot be guaranteed. Ordinary life jackets and lifebuoys cause most of the user's body to be immersed in seawater. Due to the low temperature of seawater, the body consumes a lot of heat, which is not conducive to waiting for rescue. In addition, the fierce tsunami can easily cause collisions with other objects, causing irreversible damage.

[0003] In view of this, in order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a marine lifeboat with low manufacturing cost, high safety performance and good floating performance. The lifeboat has a large internal space, sufficient supplies, and a built-in positioning system and communication equipment, so that rescue can be obtained faster. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0024] See Figure 1-6 A marine lifesaving capsule comprises a levitator 1 with a hollow structure. The bottom end of the levitator 1 is an arc-shaped structure. A storage cabinet 2 for storing water and food and a fresh water collection device 3 are provided inside the levitator 1. A top-closed outer cabin 4 is vertically upwardly provided in the middle of the top surface of the levitator 1. The top of the outer cabin 4 is an arc-shaped structure, wherein the lower end of the outer cabin 4 is located inside the levitator 1, which can improve stability. A cabin door 5 is rotatably connected to one side of the outer cabin 4. A transparent observation window 6 is provided on the upper part of the cabin door 5, so that the external situation of the outer cabin 4 can be observed at any time. A door handle 7 is provided on one side of the cabin door 5. A safety belt 10 is provided on the inner side wall of the outer cabin 4, wherein the setting of the safety belt 10 is convenient for improving the safety of the survivors to avoid bumps. A bench 13 is horizontally provided between the two sides of the outer cabin 4 on the lower side of the safety belt 10.

[0025] A GPS locator 8 and a waterproof intercom 9 are provided on the inner wall of the outer cabin 4. The GPS locator 8 is associated with a monitoring system, which is installed on the rescue fishing boat. It enables rescuers to accurately determine the location of the rescued person and seek help from the outside world through the communication equipment 9, thereby increasing the survival rate of the rescued person. The locator can also use the Beidou locator to enhance the positioning function.

[0026] The fresh water collection device 3 includes a collection tank 301, a support frame 302, an inverted conical guide cup 303 and filter paper 304. The collection tank 301 is provided with a tank cover, the inverted conical guide cup 303 is set on the support frame 302, the collection tank 301 is located directly below the inverted conical guide cup 303, and the filter paper 304 is set on the lower side of the inverted conical guide cup 303. When in use, the support frame 302 is placed on the suspender 1 outside the outer cabin 4, wherein the cone mouth of the inverted conical guide cup 303 is aligned with the collection tank 301. When it rains, rainwater is collected in the collection tank 301 and filtered through the filter paper 304 to be stored in the collection tank 301, so that drinkable fresh water can be obtained; at night, the condensed water formed by the temperature difference between day and night can also be used to replenish fresh water resources.

[0027] The fresh water collection device 3 also includes a water basin 305, a water collection cup 306, a double convex lens 307 and a mirror frame 308. The water basin 305 is made of stainless steel and is arranged below the inverted conical guide cup 303. The water collection cup 306 is movably arranged in the water basin 305 and is located directly below the inverted conical guide cup 303. The mirror frame 308 is detachably connected to the support frame 302. The double convex lens 307 is arranged on the mirror frame 308 and is connected to the water basin. 305 is set at an angle, and the bottom end of the inverted conical guide cup 303 is sealed by a sealing cover; when the sun comes out, the water basin 305 is filled with seawater and the double convex lens 307 is aimed at the sun and the seawater in the water basin 305, and then the inverted conical guide cup 303 is filled with seawater. The seawater is heated and boiled to form steam, which is then condensed on the outer cone surface of the inverted conical guide cup 303 and flows into the water collection cup 306. The collected water is then introduced into the collection tank 301 for storage.

[0028] The levitator 1 and the outer cabin 4 are both made of high molecular polyethylene material and are thermoplastic molded. The outer layer is coated with a fireproof layer. They are strong and durable, corrosion-resistant, have good performance, are light in weight, and have high buoyancy.

[0029] A circular guardrail 11 is vertically provided on the floater 1 outside the outer cabin 4. The guardrail 11 is a flexible guardrail, which can not only prevent the collision of large objects but also allow people to walk out of the outer cabin 4 and wait for rescue when the sea is calm, avoiding depression of the people waiting to be rescued.

[0030] A counterweight 12 is provided at the bottom of the levitator 1. The design of the counterweight 12 can improve the floating stability of the lifeboat. The storage cabinet 2 and the fresh water collection device 3 are both arranged on the top of the counterweight 12. The bottom of the outer cabin 4 above the storage cabinet 2 and the fresh water collection device 3 is respectively provided with a cabinet door 15.

[0031] A hanger is provided on one side of the interior of the outer cabin 4, on which a signal gun 14 is hung. By firing the signal gun 14, the attention of rescuers can be attracted, thereby increasing the rescue speed and the chance of survival.

[0032] A storage area 17 is separated by a partition on one side of the bottom of the outer cabin 4. A life rope, life jackets and fishing gear are placed in the storage area 17. A life buoy 16 is tied to the outer wall of the outer cabin 4 by a fixed rope. The life rope and life jackets in the storage area 17 further ensure the integrity of the life-saving equipment. Fishing gear can also be used to obtain food to further increase the survival rate of the rescued people.
