Description

[0001] Integrable personal protection room

[0002] FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0003] The present invention relates to a shelter that can be adapted to a variable environment, more specifically, the invention relates to a shelter, a shelter module, a building and a method for integrating a shelter module into an existing or newly constructed, closed building.

[0004] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0005] Buildings can offer their occupants a certain degree of protection from external influences. However, this degree of resistance may fail when exposed to the effects of armed force or natural disasters. For this purpose, a protective device can be retrofitted or installed during construction. However, the installation of the protective device often results in the loss of the building's overall structural integrity and stability. These protective devices also do not constitute an independent part of the building. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0006] An object of the present invention is therefore to improve the protection of people in buildings.

[0007] This object is achieved by the subject matter of the independent claims. Further examples are specified in the dependent claims. The aspects described below also apply to the protective bunker, the protective bunker module, the building, and the method for integrating a protective bunker module into an existing and enclosed building.

[0008] According to the invention, a protective bunker is provided. The protective bunker has a chamber structure and an enclosed volume. The enclosed volume is enclosed by armored walls, floors, and ceilings of the chamber structure and is isolated from its surroundings. The chamber structure is designed to accommodate at least one person in the enclosed volume. The armored walls, floors, and ceilings are designed to isolate the enclosed volume with the at least one person from the effects of weapon force in the surroundings and / or on the chamber structure. The chamber structure has an armored, resealable entrance that makes the enclosed volume accessible to the at least one person. The chamber structure is configured to connect its enclosed volume to a service structure.The chamber structure is designed to supply the enclosed volume with the service structure in such a way that a habitable living space is created within the enclosed volume. The chamber structure is also designed to be integrated into an existing, enclosed building without being detectable outside the existing, enclosed building.

[0009] The effect is a lower probability of being hit by projectiles in the event of war, since the target, the shelter, is not recognized as such.

[0010] The advantage of this is a safe place of protection.

[0011] The advantage is that it is easier to provide a shelter in existing buildings. Another advantage is that the structural integrity of an existing building can be preserved as much as possible.

[0012] The advantage is that no additional special structural equipment is required for the shelter.

[0013] As an advantage, no special environmental conditions, such as humidity, are required as a prerequisite for the construction of the shelter.

[0014] According to one example, the armored walls, floors, and ceilings of the chamber structure further include stabilizing structures that protect the habitable space of the chamber structure from exposure to loose components in the event of a destroyed, enclosed building.

[0015] According to one example, the chamber structure is configured to form a closed circuit with the enclosed volume and the service structure to provide the habitable living space, independent of the existing and enclosed building.

[0016] According to one example, the chamber structure is further configured to protect the supply structure from the effects of weapon force from the environment and / or loose components.

[0017] According to one example, the chamber structure has at least one receptacle for a building interface structure to integrate the chamber structure into an existing, enclosed building. The receptacle is configured with the building interface structure to reduce the impact of destabilizing forces emanating from the chamber structure on the existing, enclosed building.

[0018] According to one example, the chamber structure and the receptacle are designed to integrate themselves and the building interface structure into the existing and closed building, while maintaining the highest possible structural integrity of the existing and closed building.

[0019] According to the invention, a protective bunker module is also provided. The protective bunker module comprises a service structure and a protective bunker according to one of the preceding examples. The service structure is designed as an integral component of the protective bunker and provides an armored and habitable living space from an enclosed volume of the protective bunker.

[0020] The advantage is that living space is also provided in crisis regions.

[0021] According to the invention, a building is also provided. The building is made of a structural fabric, the structural fabric comprising: walls, windows, floors, ceilings, at least one roof, building services supply structures, and a protective bunker module according to one of the previous examples. The walls, floors, ceilings, and the at least one roof of the building enclose a space that, thanks to the building services supply structures, provides a habitable living space for people. The space encloses the protective bunker module, so that the protective bunker module cannot be detected outside the building. The protective bunker module provides a habitable living space for people even after or during the destruction of the building services supply structures and the structural fabric by force of arms and / or natural disasters.

[0022] As an advantage, the building is additionally reinforced by the protective bunker module.

[0023] According to the invention, a method for integrating a shelter module into an existing, enclosed building is also provided. The method comprises the following steps: a) providing a shelter module; b) installing the shelter module into an existing, enclosed building; c) optionally connecting the shelter module to the existing, enclosed building via a building interface structure; and d) providing a habitable living space with a service structure for the shelter module independent of the building services supply structures of the existing, enclosed building.

[0028] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0029] Fig. 1 shows the protective bunker 10 in the context of the existing and closed building, as well as a section through the enclosed volume of its chamber structure 12. The protective bunker 10 has a chamber structure 12 and an enclosed volume 14. The enclosed volume 14 is enclosed by armored walls, floors, and ceilings 16 of the chamber structure 12 and is isolated from its surroundings 18. The chamber structure 12 is designed to accommodate at least one person 20 in the enclosed volume 14. The armored walls, floors, and ceilings 16 are designed to isolate the enclosed volume 14 with the at least one person 20 from the effects of armed force 22 in the surroundings 18 and / or on the chamber structure 12. The chamber structure 12 has an armored, resealable entrance 24 that makes the enclosed volume 14 accessible to the at least one person 20.The chamber structure 12 is configured to connect its enclosed volume 14 to a service structure 26. The chamber structure 12 is designed to supply the enclosed volume 14 with the service structure 26 such that a habitable living space 28 is provided from the enclosed volume 14. The chamber structure 12 is further designed to be integrated into an existing and enclosed building 30, shown by arrow 31 of Fig. 1, without being detectable outside the existing and enclosed building 30, illustrated by waves 32 in Fig. 1.

[0030] The term "protective bunker" refers to a structure such as a shelter, a security room, a protective chamber, or can also be understood as a so-called "panic room." It is therefore a structure that has a space cut off from the outside, which is immune to a wide variety of influences outside the structure. The wide variety of external influences ranges from armed violence 22 due to war, shown in Fig. 1, to burglaries, house fires, and environmental disasters, not shown in Fig. 1. The interior of the protective bunker 10 is immune to influence through the presence of reinforced protective structures, or armored protective structures, which have a stability, resistance, and thickness that shield the space cut off from the outside.

[0031] The term "chamber structure" refers to the bunker's protective structures, which have the aforementioned stability, strength, and thickness to protect the externally isolated space of the shelter 10 from external influences. The "chamber structure" can also be referred to as a container or safe. The protective structures of the chamber structure 12 in Fig. 1 are designed to encompass, enclose, and delimit the externally isolated space of the shelter 10, and to shield it from changes in its environment.

[0032] In one example, the walls, floors, and ceilings 16 of the chamber structure 12 are made of concrete and / or metal and / or brick and / or filled sand and / or water layers and / or bullet-resistant glass 17.

[0033] In one example, the chamber structure 12 has at least one window and / or at least one door which comprises bullet-resistant glass 17 and thus enables optical detection of the environment 18 of the chamber structure 12 and / or ensures that light enters the enclosed volume 14 of the chamber structure 12.

[0034] In one example, light entry channels may also be provided here, which are designed to bring natural light from outside the existing and closed building into the closed volume.

[0035] In one example, the chamber structure has 12 high-speed doors.

[0036] In one example, the chamber structure 12 consists of several layers of concrete or metal, not shown in Fig.1

[0037] The term “enclosed volume” refers to the space cut off and isolated from the outside by the chamber structure 12.

[0038] The term “armored” refers to the degree of resistance of the chamber structure 12, or rather its walls, floors and ceilings 16, to external influences, so that these have no influence on the space enclosed by the chamber structure 12.

[0039] In one example, the walls, floors and ceilings 16 have a resistance level of protection class up to bullet resistance FB7-NS, not shown in Fig. L

[0040] In one example, the walls, floors and ceilings 16 have a resistance level that makes them resistant to fire from heavy artillery, such as tanks, self-propelled howitzers and / or rockets, as well as bombs up to blast resistance STANAG C5.

[0041] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is armored to withstand the impact of nuclear weapons.

[0042] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is armored to withstand the effects of hurricanes, tornadoes, storms, forest fires, and fires.

[0043] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is armored to withstand the effects of chemical weapons.

[0044] In one example, the walls, floors, and ceilings 16 have different degrees of resistance. The term "environment" refers to the external environment of the chamber structure 12. The environment 18 can be represented by a building structure, on the one hand, and by a built-up area in an urban setting, not shown in Fig. 1, on the other. The environment 18 is a changeable environment that changes due to the influence of external influences, in contrast to the space cut off and isolated from the chamber structure 12. The environment 18 can be enclosed by a building 30.

[0045] The term “gun violence” refers to the effect of firearms, such as artillery, grenade launchers, and small arms, as well as nuclear and chemical weapons, on the environment.

[0046] The term “effect of armed force” refers either to the direct effect of armed force 22 on the chamber structure 12 or to the indirect effect of armed force 22 in the environment 18 on the chamber structure 12.

[0047] In one example, the chamber structure 12 has a strength to withstand the direct effect of weapon force 22 on the chamber structure 12, e.g., by direct impact of a projectile from a firearm, not shown in Fig.1.

[0048] In one example, the chamber structure 12 has a resilience to withstand the effect of weapon force 22 on the environment 18 of the chamber structure 12, for example, from bomb and rocket impacts in the vicinity of the chamber structure 12 or the explosion of aerosol bombs, bomb fragments, or flying components.

[0049] The term “armored, resealable entrance” refers to a lock, a gate, a door, a gateway, a connection between the space isolated by the chamber structure 12 and the environment 18.

[0050] In one example, the entrance 24 is designed as a lock, not shown in Fig. l.

[0051] In one example, the entrance 24 is equipped with hydraulic elements to allow it to be opened and closed again even when blocked by the environment 18. In one example, the "armored, resealable entrance" has an armored window.

[0052] The term “care structure” refers to all facilities that remove the isolation from the living conditions of their environment 18 caused by the chamber structure 12, so that a person can be isolated from the environment 18 while alive.

[0053] In one example, the supply structure 26 includes energy sources such as fuel generators and / or lithium batteries and / or fuel cells. A water reservoir and / or an air reservoir and / or a water and wastewater supply (not shown in Fig. 1) and / or a separate air supply and / or air filter may also be provided to maintain vital material cycles.

[0054] In one example, the utility structure 26 also includes less vital facilities such as communication means and / or heating, air conditioning and / or refrigeration and / or fire alarm and / or fire extinguishing system and / or sensors.

[0055] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is configured as an antenna to receive and emit electromagnetic signals, not shown in Fig.1.

[0056] In one example, the supply structure has 26 signal amplifiers.

[0057] The term "habitable living space" refers to the accommodation of a human 20 in the chamber structure 12, who should find all the essential life-sustaining facilities that are also present in the environment 18 of the chamber structure 12 so that he or she can survive the isolation from the environment 18 in the chamber structure 12. This refers not only to essential life-sustaining facilities, but also to facilities that increase the comfort of the human 20 in order to provide the habitable living space 28.

[0058] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is designed to suppress claustrophobic fears of the occupants of the chamber structure 12. For example, the wall structure within the chamber structure can be adapted by incorporating shadow gaps, offsets, or similar design measures. Mirrors made of shatterproof glass can also contribute to changing the spatial feel. Blue wall paint or lighting also helps to make the enclosed volume 14 appear larger. This advantageously removes the psychological barrier of not entering the enclosed volume 14 for potential occupants, and more people can be evacuated into the enclosed volume 14 in a shorter time.

[0059] The term "existing and enclosed building" refers to an already constructed building structure whose planning and construction did not take the shelter 10 into account and which may have already been occupied by people 20 before the shelter 10 was integrated. The building therefore already consists of existing walls, ceilings, windows, and roofs to enclose an inhabited living space, or apartments.

[0060] The “existing and closed building” can also be referred to as a house or building, or structure.

[0061] In one example, the building is a single-family home.

[0062] In one example, the building is a semi-detached house. In another example, the building is an apartment building. In another example, the building is a high-rise building, not shown in Fig. l.

[0063] In one example, the building is an apartment.

[0064] In one example, the building is a municipal facility.

[0065] In one example, the building is a

[0066] Administrative building.

[0067] In one example, the building is a factory, not shown in Fig. l.

[0068] In one example, the building is an office building.

[0069] In one example, the building is a religious institution, not shown in Fig. l.

[0070] In one example, the building is a train station or an airport. In one example, the shelter 10 is designed to be integrated into a variety of different building types.

[0071] The term "integrated" refers to the connection of the chamber structure 12 with the existing building fabric of the existing and enclosed building 30. This applies not only in structural terms, but also in functional terms. For example, the chamber structure 12 must be easily accessible from all rooms and not be visible as such, in order to prevent negative psychological feelings among the building structure's occupants regarding the shelter 10 and to enable a faster evacuation of the occupants to the shelter. The integration itself also takes place without any significant changes to the existing or newly designed building structure and takes place while preserving the existing or newly designed building structure as much as possible.

[0072] In one example, the integration of the protective bunker 10 only involves the integration of the existing and closed building 30.

[0073] The term "detectable" refers to the detection of the shelter 10 within the existing and enclosed building 30 as such. This can mean detection by any type of electromagnetic radiation, such as that enabled by vision or special detectors not shown in Fig. 1.

[0074] In one example, the shelter 10 can be used as a housing option in crisis areas when the existing and closed building 30 no longer exists, not shown in Fig. 1.

[0075] In an example of Fig. 1, the armored walls, floors and ceilings 16 of the chamber structure 12 further include stabilizing structures 34 which protect the habitable living space 28 of the chamber structure 12 from exposure to loose components 35 in the event of a destroyed enclosed building.

[0076] In one example, components of the building structure in which the shelter 10 is installed become detached due to force of arms 22 in a war or an earthquake. Reinforced concrete elements or steel beams fall under high acceleration onto the chamber structure 12 in Fig. 1. In one example, the chamber structure 12 has angles and / or bracing and / or cross bracing in the armored walls, floors, and ceilings 16 to withstand impacts from detached components 35.

[0077] In one example, the chamber structure 12 has stabilizing structures 34 that cushion the impact of detached components 35.

[0078] In a further example of Fig. 1, the armored walls, floors and ceilings of the chamber structure 12 are further configured to accommodate lines 36 and / or reservoirs 38 and / or functional units 40 of the supply structure 26.

[0079] In one example, there are 16 pipe channels in the armored walls, floors and ceilings.

[0080] In one example, the pipe channels provide a connection between the environment 18 and the enclosed volume 14 as part of an air filtration system.

[0081] In one example, cable ducts are located in the armored walls, floors and ceilings 16, not shown in Fig. 1.

[0082] In one example, fresh water reservoirs are located in the armored floors of chamber structure 12.

[0083] In one example, a propellant unit is stored in the chamber structure 12, the exhaust gases of which are discharged through a pipe system in the walls of the chamber structure 12.

[0084] In one example, a support structure is provided in the enclosed volume 14 of the chamber structure 12, which supports the supply structure 26, for example by bearings or suspensions, not shown in Fig. 1.

[0085] In another example of Fig. 1, the chamber structure 12 is configured to form a closed circuit 42 with the enclosed volume 14 and the supply structure 26 to provide the habitable living space 28, independent of the existing and enclosed building 30.

[0086] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is connected to the supply structure 26 to form a closed water circuit. The supply structure 26 includes a water reservoir, a wastewater reservoir, and a water purification device, not shown in Fig. 1.

[0087] In one example, the chamber structure 12, or its enclosed volume 14, has a closed air circuit with the supply structure 26, with a fresh air or oxygen reservoir and CO2 absorbers.

[0088] In one example, the chamber structure 12 comprises a closed fuel cell system with the supply structure 26.

[0089] In another example of Fig. 1, the chamber structure 12 is further configured to protect the supply structure 26 from the effects of weapon force from the environment 18 and / or detached components 35.

[0090] In one example, the chamber structure 12 cushions the supply devices from impacts or shock waves from projectiles.

[0091] In a further example of Fig. 1, the chamber structure 12 is further configured to be introduced into an existing and closed building 30 by a transport unit 44 and, in the case of the destroyed building, to be recovered.

[0092] The term “transport unit” refers to a crane, excavator or tracked vehicle.

[0093] In one example, the chamber structure has 12 rollers so that it can be rolled to its destination.

[0094] In one example, the chamber structure 12 has suspensions to be transported by a crane, not shown in Fig. 1.

[0095] In one example, the chamber structure has 12 rollers to allow it to be transported via a rail system.

[0096] Fig. 2 shows the protective bunker 10, 104, the protective bunker module 100 in the context of a multi-story building as well as the building itself.

[0097] In one example of Fig. 2, the chamber structure 12 of the shelter 10, 104 has at least one receptacle 46 for a building interface structure 48 to integrate the chamber structure 12 into an existing and enclosed building 30. The receptacle 46 is configured with the building interface structure 48 to reduce the effect of destabilizing forces, represented by the arrow 49 in Fig. 2, emanating from the chamber structure 12 on the existing and enclosed building 30.

[0098] The term “receptacle” refers to a recess, hole, notch, eyelet or suspension on the chamber structure 12 that can absorb and transmit forces.

[0099] The term “building interface structure” refers to bolts, dowels, beams, supporting structures, scaffolding, posts, beams, rails that can transfer forces from the chamber structure 12 to the existing and enclosed building 30 or vice versa.

[0100] In one example, the receptacle 46 in Fig. 2 is configured to anchor the chamber structure 12 in the building 30 with a fastener, nut and bolt, dowel, hook.

[0101] In one example, the receptacle 46 is configured to receive an extendable post or to receive a post and / or to receive a beam.

[0102] In one example, the chamber structure 12 is located on the first floor of a house and is supported by posts that are supported by the house foundation, as shown in Fig. 2, with the floor 204 as the foundation. The posts extend through holes in the floor of the first floor. Thus, the floor of the first floor does not have to bear the loads of the chamber structure 12.

[0103] In one example, the “building interface structure” also serves to bring the chamber structure 12 to the first floor by acting as a scaffold and elevator, not shown in Fig. 2.

[0104] In one example, the building interface structure 48 connects to the load-bearing structure of the existing and enclosed building 30 to transfer loads of the chamber structure 12, shown by arrow 49 in Fig. 2.

[0105] In another example of Fig. 2, the chamber structure 12 and the receptacle 46 are designed to integrate themselves and the building interface structure 48 into the existing and enclosed building 30 while maintaining the highest possible structural integrity 50 of the existing and enclosed building 30. The term "structural integrity" refers to the connection and interaction of all components of a building structure to form a unified structure.

[0106] In one example, maintaining the structural integrity 50 of an existing and closed building 30 also means maintaining its structural stability.

[0107] In one example, the building interface structure 48 includes extendable posts connecting the chamber structure 12 to the house foundation, which are not shown in Fig. 2. This requires only holes in the ceilings 16 or floors to guide the posts from any floor to the house foundation.

[0108] In a further example, not shown in Fig. 2, the chamber structure 12 and the receptacle 46 are configured, together with the building interface structure 48, to stabilize the existing and enclosed building 30.

[0109] In one example, the building interface structure 48 includes extendable posts (not shown in Fig. 2) that connect the chamber structure 12 to the house foundation. This requires only holes in the ceilings or floors to guide the posts from any floor to the house foundation. The posts, in turn, are connected to the ceilings or floors via load-transfer structures, which stabilize the ceilings and floors through the posts.

[0110] In one example, the building interface structure 48 in Fig. 2 with the chamber structure 12 stabilizes the existing and closed building 30 against wars or environmental disasters.

[0111] In a further example of Fig. 2, the chamber structure 12 and the receptacle 46 are designed, together with the building interface structure 48, to connect the supply structure 26, 102 to a building services supply structure 52 of the existing and closed building 30 and to protect it from the effects of the weapon 22.

[0112] In one example, the building interface structure 48 of Fig. 2 includes posts or beams in which service lines of the building's service structure 52 run from the existing and enclosed building 30 into the chamber structure 12. The beams and posts enclose the service lines to protect them from external influences.

[0113] Fig. 2 also shows the shelter module in the context of a multi-story, existing, and enclosed building 30. The shelter module 100 comprises a service structure 102 and a shelter 104 according to one of the preceding claims. The service structure 102 is designed as an integral component of the shelter 10, 104 and provides an armored and habitable living space 28 from an enclosed volume 14 of the shelter 10, 104.

[0114] In one example, the shelter module 100 forms a self-contained living unit that can operate independently of the environment.

[0115] The advantage is that living space is also provided in crisis regions.

[0116] In an example of Fig. 2, the protective bunker module 100 according to the previous example further comprises a building interface structure 106. A first side of the building interface structure 108 is received in a receptacle 110 of the chamber structure 112, and a second side of the building interface structure 114 abuts the existing, enclosed building 30. The building interface structure 106 is configured to exchange forces between the protective bunker 10, 104 and the existing, enclosed building 30. The building interface structure 106 is designed to reduce the effect of destabilizing forces emanating from the chamber structure 112 on the existing, enclosed building 30 and / or the building interface structure 106 is designed to stabilize the existing, enclosed building 30 together with the protective bunker 10, 104.The building interface structure 106 is further configured to be installed while maintaining the highest possible structural integrity 50 of the existing and enclosed building 30. In one example, the building interface structure 106 also includes rails for introducing or transporting the shelter 10, 104 into the existing and enclosed building 30, not shown in Fig. 2.

[0117] In one example, the building interface structure 106 has wire rope structures that suspend the chamber structure 112 from the framework of the existing building structure.

[0118] In an example of Fig. 2, the building interface structure 106 is further configured with the receptacle 110 on the chamber structure 112 to enable a secure, armored connection 120 between the armored, resealable entrance 122 of the shelter 10, 104 and the existing and enclosed building 30.

[0119] In one example, the chamber structure 112 is mounted on the first floor of a house behind a bedroom wall. The building interface structure 106 is configured as an airlock between the resealable entrance 122 of the shelters 10, 104 and the bedroom by passing through the wall.

[0120] In one example, the resealable entrance 122 of the chamber structure is configured to be automatically opened and resealable within a few seconds or within a fraction of a second.

[0121] In one example, the resealable entrance 122 is a high-speed door that is operated autonomously from the shelter.

[0122] In one example, the high-speed door reacts to sound waves or explosions.

[0123] In one example, the resealable entrance 122 is a high-speed door that has a resistance level of protection class up to bullet resistance FB7-NS.

[0124] In one example, the high-speed door is designed to prevent people from becoming trapped in the area of ​​the high-speed door, even when it closes in a matter of seconds.

[0125] In one example, the resealable entrance 122 is armored, and a high-speed door is installed in the lock as an additional first-line security measure. In one example, the windows of the chamber structure are equipped with high-speed doors.

[0126] Fig. 2 also shows the building 200. The building 200 consists of a building structure. The building structure has walls 202, windows 203, floors 204, ceilings 206, at least one roof 208, building services support structures 210, and a shelter module 212 according to one of the previous examples. The walls, floors, ceilings, and the at least one roof of the building 200 enclose a space that, through the building services support structures 210, provides a habitable living space 214 for people 216. The space encloses the shelter module 212, so that the shelter module 212 cannot be detected outside the building 200. The protective bunker module 212 provides a habitable living space 218 for people 216 even after or during the destruction of the building's technical supply structures 210 and the building fabric by force of arms 22 and / or natural disasters.
