Background Technology

[0002] Generally, underpasses are constructed lower than the surrounding area to facilitate vehicle traffic.

[0003] Therefore, in the event of heavy rainfall, rainwater may not drain properly, or rivers or lakes may overflow, leading to flooding accidents. Additionally, in the event of fires caused by vehicle accidents, casualties are occurring due to fire and smoke.

[0004] A "safety ladder for underpasses" has been proposed as a prior art to solve these problems.

[0005] The prior art relates to a safety ladder for an underpass used for emergency evacuation in the event of a flooding disaster inside the underpass.

[0006] This conventional technology allows for easy identification of ladders in dark areas during flooding of underpasses and can be conveniently utilized as an emergency evacuation means.

[0007] However, underpasses and tunnels have enclosed ceilings, requiring movement from a location to an entrance, whereas ladders only allow for upward movement, which presents a problem as the available evacuation locations are limited.

[0008] In other words, the problem is that it is difficult to escape because it can move toward the ceiling, and you simply have to wait to fall into the water.

[0009] In addition, there is a problem where smooth evacuation is not possible due to congestion caused by the difficulty for many people to use it simultaneously in emergency situations. Prior art literature

[0027] Hereinafter, the emergency escape safety device according to the present invention will be described in detail together with the attached drawings.

[0028] FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram illustrating an emergency escape safety device according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating a coupling relationship according to the present invention, FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a movable ring part according to the present invention, FIG. 4 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a safety rope part according to the present invention, FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram illustrating an expanded state of the safety rope part according to the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a fixed band and a buoyancy module according to the present invention.

[0029] As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 6, the present invention relates to an emergency escape safety device, and more specifically, to an emergency escape safety device that is installed in an underpass or tunnel without obstructing the view during normal times, and is deployed by pulling in the event of flooding or fire accidents to guide escape and evacuation, thereby preventing casualties.

[0030] To this end, the present invention is composed of a handrail section (10), a moving hook section (20), and a safety rope section (30) that are installed on the wall (1) of an underpass, tunnel, and ship to allow safe evacuation in the event of flooding or fire accidents.

[0031] The above handrail section (10) is formed by horizontally connecting a guide frame (12) to a plurality of fixed brackets (11) installed on the wall surface (1).

[0032] The above-mentioned moving ring part (20) is movably installed on the above-mentioned handrail part (10), and a connecting groove (23a) is formed on the outer surface.

[0033] The above safety rope part (30) is connected at one end to the connecting groove (23a) and wound, and is configured to unfold and be gripped by pulling the exposed portion of the other end.

[0034] Through this, the present invention allows the safety rope portion (30) exposed on the handrail portion (10) to be grasped, and the moving hook portion (20) to move along the handrail portion (10), thereby enabling safe evacuation in the event of flooding or fire accidents.

[0036] A detailed examination of each component based on this is as follows.

[0037] First, the handrail section (10) is formed by attaching the guide frame (12) to the fixing bracket (11) which is fixed in multiple places on the wall surface (1) of an underpass, tunnel, ship, etc., so that it is positioned horizontally.

[0038] That is, the handrail section (10) is installed on the wall (1) and is formed in the shape of a rail that allows a pedestrian to grip it and pass safely.

[0040] Next, the moving ring part (20) is installed to be slidably movable on the handrail part (10).

[0041] Accordingly, the above-mentioned moving ring portion (20) comprises a moving member (21) installed to be slidably movable on the outer surface of the handrail portion (10), a poly bushing (22) formed on the inner surface of the moving member (21) to reduce friction, and a flat ring member (23) formed on the outer surface of the moving member (21) and having the connecting groove (23a) formed therein.

[0042] At this time, the poly bushing (22) is made of a silicone material or the like so that it is in close contact with the guide frame (12) to minimize friction and allow for smooth sliding movement.

[0043] Here, a contact member (24) is further included, which is positioned between the poly bushings (22) and, when the poly bushings (22) are compressed by an external force, comes into close contact with the movable member (21) and fixes the movable member (21) to the handrail part (10) by frictional force.

[0044] The above contact member (24) is formed such that it protrudes between the poly bushings (22) with a thickness thinner than the poly bushing, so as not to directly contact the guide frame (12).

[0045] Accordingly, the moving member (21) slides by minimizing friction with the guide frame (12) through the poly bushing (22), and when the moving member (21) is pressed against the guide frame (12) by an external force, the poly bushing (22) is pressed so that the contact member (24) is pressed against the moving member (21), thereby preventing movement by friction.

[0046] And the flat ring member (23) is formed to protrude widely on both sides with a thin thickness from the outer surface of the moving member (21), so that the connecting groove (23a) is formed large enough to have a spare space when the safety rope part (30) is fastened.

[0047] Therefore, the above connecting groove (23a) allows a rescue worker to move safely by additionally attaching a carabiner, etc., together with the above safety rope part (30).

[0048] Through this, the moving ring (20) moves along the longitudinal direction of the guide frame (12).

[0049] At this time, the moving member (21) moves smoothly by means of the poly bushing (22), but can be fixed at a specific position of the guide frame (12) by generating an external force.

[0051] Next, the safety rope part (30) is installed on the moving ring part (20) so that people can easily grasp it and move safely during evacuation.

[0052] The above safety rope portion (30) has a long length, and after one end is firmly fastened to the connecting groove (23a), the middle and other ends are wound so that the exposed portion (31) is exposed so that the other end can be grasped.

[0053] At this time, a recognition member (32) is formed in which a reflective sheet that reflects light and a luminous sheet that emits light are formed in a single or combined manner on one side and the other side of the safety rope part (30).

[0054] That is, in the event of an emergency, the user can easily recognize the above recognition member (32), grasp the above exposed part (31) and extend it to a long length to grasp the above safety rope part (30) and safely evacuate.

[0055] Accordingly, the recognition member (32) is configured to emit and reflect light so that the user can easily recognize it in an emergency situation.

[0057] And the other side of the above safety rope part (30) is formed in multiple pieces so that multiple people can grip it at the same time.

[0058] That is, the safety rope part (30) is formed such that after one side is fastened to the connecting groove (23a), the middle and other sides are branched into multiple parts or multiple ropes are formed so that multiple people can grip and use it simultaneously.

[0059] Therefore, multiple people can evacuate by holding the safety rope part (30).

[0061] Additionally, a fixing band (33) that wraps around and secures the wound safety rope portion (30), and a buoyancy module (34) that is fastened to either the safety rope portion (30) or the fixing band (33) and deploys the wound safety rope portion (30) by buoyancy when in contact with water are further included.

[0062] That is, the above fixing band (33) is formed in the form of a band, wire, etc., and wraps around and fixes the wound safety rope part (30).

[0063] At this time, the fixing band (33) is easily attached to the safety rope part through elasticity and is configured to be easily fixed using Velcro, buckles, etc.

[0064] Accordingly, the above fixing band (33) secures the safety rope part (30) so that it can maintain a wound state, and can be easily removed to unfold the safety rope part (30) in the event of an emergency such as flooding or fire.

[0065] And the above buoyancy module (34) is selectively installed in the exposed portion of the safety rope portion (30) and a specific position of the fixing band (33) to deploy the safety rope portion (30) by buoyancy when in contact with water.

[0066] Here, the buoyancy module (34) is formed inside the protective cover, such as a buoyancy body that generates buoyancy through an object lighter than water or an inflatable buoyancy body that expands upon contact with water to generate buoyancy.

[0067] That is, the buoyancy module (34) formed on the safety rope section (30) can deploy the safety rope section (30) by buoyancy without removing the fixed band (33), and the buoyancy module (34) formed on the fixed band (33) can detach the fixed band (33) from the safety rope section (30) by buoyancy, so that the safety rope section (30) deploys and the user can easily recognize and grasp it to evacuate.

[0068] In addition, the buoyancy module (34) that rises above the water surface can easily identify its location by acting as a buoy, and can guide people to the water surface by buoyancy to evacuate them, allowing rescue workers to rescue them quickly.

[0070] Next, the usage state according to the present invention will be described.

[0071] First, the handrail section (10), the moving hook section (20), and the safety rope section (30) are installed on the wall of an underpass, tunnel, ship, etc.

[0072] At this time, people can walk safely after gripping the handrail (10).

[0073] Then, after the safety rope part (30) is connected to the moving ring part (20), it is installed in a wound state.

[0074] Therefore, in normal circumstances, the safety rope section (30) moves along the handrail section (10) by means of the moving hook section (20), allowing the handrail section (10) to be used without inconvenience and preventing misuse or damage caused by falling objects, playing pranks, etc.

[0075] Afterwards, in the event of an emergency such as flooding or fire, the user can quickly recognize the safety rope (30) by pulling the exposed part (31) and grasping the safety rope (30) extended to a long length, and quickly evacuate along the handrail (10).

[0076] Here, a rescue worker can safely perform rescue activities and prevent accidents by attaching a carabiner, rescue rope, etc. to the connecting groove (23a) of the moving ring part (20) through the ring.

[0077] And the above safety rope section (30) is branched at the other end to form multiple ropes, allowing multiple people to hold it and evacuate.

[0078] In addition, when an underpass, tunnel, or ship is flooded, the safety rope part (30) can be deployed by the buoyancy when the buoyancy module (34) comes into contact with water, allowing it to be used quickly in emergency situations, and the buoyancy allows it to easily float to the water surface, enabling smooth rescue and evacuation.

[0079] In addition, the safety rope part (30) can be easily replaced with the moving hook part (20), allowing for convenient maintenance in case of aging, damage, or breakage.

[0081] Through this, the present invention guides people to safely evacuate in situations involving flooding or fire accidents, such as in underpasses, tunnels, and ships.

[0082] At this time, the safety rope part (30) is wound up so that there is no inconvenience to passage during normal times, and misuse and damage caused by falling objects are prevented, and maintenance is easy through simple replacement.

[0083] Here, the moving ring (20) reduces friction and moves along the handrail (10) to safely evacuate, but in the event of being swept away by water currents or the like and forced to move, it can be fixed to the handrail (10) by an external force to be safely supported.

[0084] In addition, the above safety rope part (30) can be easily recognized and used in the event of an accident, and in the event of flooding, the safety rope part (30) can be deployed and floated by buoyancy to safely evacuate and rescue people.

[0085] Here, the rescuer can prevent accidents during rescue activities by securing a safety line to the moving ring part (20).

[0087] As described above, the rights of the present invention are not limited to the embodiments described above but are defined by what is stated in the claims, and it is obvious that a person skilled in the art may make various modifications and adaptations within the scope of the rights stated in the claims.
