Accident response support method for facilities with frozen surfaces

Abstract

When an accident occurs at a facility with an icy surface, using a stretcher to respond has the problem that the rescuer holding or carrying the stretcher is likely to slip on the icy surface, and there is a risk of secondary damage if the rescuer falls, etc. In addition, since multiple rescuers are required, a quick initial response can be difficult in some cases. [Solution] The present invention provides an accident response support method in which, when an accident occurs on an icy surface, the person being rescued is supported using a transport device suitable for transport on an icy surface, such as a chair-type sled, without the need for a stretcher, and the person being rescued is evacuated using the transport device to off the icy surface or to a designated rescue location.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to accident response in facilities having frozen surfaces such as ice skating rinks, and more particularly to an initial rescue response method for an accident that occurs on a frozen surface. [Background technology]

[0002] In facilities with frozen surfaces, such as ice skating rinks, accidents can occur due to users falling, etc. In the past, the most common response to such accidents was to transport the person in need of assistance using a stretcher.

[0003] However, when carrying a stretcher onto an icy surface to provide rescue, the rescuer holding or carrying the stretcher is likely to slip and fall, which could result in secondary injuries. Furthermore, since multiple rescuers are required to operate the stretcher, it can be difficult to provide a rapid initial response.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a simple and highly practical accident response method that can ensure the safety of the rescuer and enable the rescuee to evacuate quickly and safely in the event of an accident occurring on an icy surface. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide an accident response support method that can safely evacuate the person being rescued in the event of an accident occurring on an icy surface, without using a stretcher, while minimizing secondary damage to the rescuer. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The accident response support method of the present invention includes, when an accident occurs at a facility having an icy surface, a step of supporting the person to be rescued on a transport device suitable for transport on an icy surface without bringing a stretcher onto the icy surface, and using the transport device to transport the person to an area outside the icy surface or to a designated rescue location.

[0007] Here, the term "transport device" broadly refers to any device that can slide across an icy surface and support the person being rescued in a stable position, including, for example, chair-type sleds, rental sleds, simple support devices, and other devices suitable for transporting people on icy surfaces.

[0008] Furthermore, the transporting device can be transported by a single rescuer or by multiple rescuers, and in particular, by having multiple rescuers hold and transport the transporting device, stability during transport can be improved.

[0009] Furthermore, the transport tool can be slid along on icy surfaces and lifted up in non-icy areas outside the icy surface, allowing for safe evacuation both on and off icy surfaces. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] According to the present invention, the person being rescued can be evacuated quickly and safely while preventing secondary damage such as the rescuer falling when using a stretcher on an icy surface.

[0011] Furthermore, since the present invention makes it possible to use existing rental sleds and the like for rescue purposes, it is possible to establish an accident response system without introducing new dedicated equipment, which also contributes to reducing the burden on facility operators. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0013] For example, if a user falls or otherwise has an accident on an ice skating rink, rescuers can support the person being rescued on a transport device without bringing a stretcher onto the icy surface.

[0014] The transporting device may be a chair-type sled capable of supporting the rescuee in a seated position. In this case, the rescuee is seated on the chair-type sled, and multiple rescuers hold the chair-type sled to transport the rescuee.

[0015] During transport, at least two rescuers on either side of the patient can hold the chair-type sled to ensure posture stability during transport. If necessary, an assistant positioned at the rear can assist with the transport.

[0016] On the icy surface, the rescuee is transported by sliding a chair-type sled, and after reaching the floor surface outside the icy surface, the rescuee is transported by lifting the chair-type sled.

[0017] The person to be rescued is carried, while still supported by the carrier, to a designated rescue space provided on the periphery of the link or indoors, where initial treatment is given. [Industrial Applicability]

[0018] The present invention is applicable to various facilities with icy surfaces, such as ice skating rinks, and contributes to improving the safety of users and reducing the burden on rescuers when responding to accidents.

Claims
