[0027] Working principle:
[0028] The wearable lifesaving device first allows users to choose whether to wear buoyancy pants 2 based on the actual usage scenario. If buoyancy pants 2 are required, put them on and adjust the tightness of the leg adjustment straps 16. Secure them with Velcro straps 17 to ensure that the buoyancy pants 2 fit the legs and do not easily shift. Meanwhile, the elastic connecting straps 15 of the pant legs ensure freedom of movement of the legs. Next, put on the buoyancy vest 1 and adjust the shoulder straps 5 and waist belt 7. Use Velcro straps 1 and 2 to adjust the shoulder height and waist tightness to make the buoyancy vest 1 fit comfortably. Finally, connect the buoyancy vest 1 and buoyancy pants 2 with the connecting zipper 3 to form a stable protective structure.
[0029] When items need to be stored, open the waterproof zipper 10 of the waterproof storage bag 9, put first aid medicines, communication equipment, and other items into the bag, and then zip up the waterproof zipper 10 to ensure that the items are waterproof. If the wearer accidentally falls into the water, the items in the waterproof storage bag 9 will not get wet, ensuring the usability of the items. At this time, press the waterproof switch 14 to activate the locator 12 and send the wearer's location information to the outside world, which can facilitate rescuers to locate the wearer quickly. At night or in low visibility environments, the reflective strips 18 on the buoyancy vest 1 and buoyancy pants 2 can reflect the surrounding light, making it easier for rescuers to find the wearer and greatly increasing the chances of rescue.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
