Description

- Automotive emergency kit -

The invention comprises a specially manufactured automobile emergency case with a combination system for the compact storage of safety-related emergency technology in the motor vehicle.

The automobile emergency case consists of a basic housing with specially arranged compartments inside, as well as outside, at the front, back and bottom, each of which can be opened in this way. For the combined, clear, practical, compact, space-saving, accident-proof storage of conventional as well as specially manufactured, selected emergency technology of a specific weight and size for the motor vehicle, etc.

e.g. breakdown tools - special emergency hammer - warning triangle - car accident note material - camera - car first aid kit - flashing light - fire extinguisher - tow rope/rods etc.

Also new in the automotive emergency on-board equipment is a miniature megaphone, as well as optionally or completely the new development, the emergency warning device with its integrated, symbolic-secondary-emergency distinction, as well as its other, safety and functional installations, including car emergency call, etc.

All of this is practically at hand for the emergency needs of the driver - everyone involved, easy to handle, stored in an automobile emergency case, transportable in the vehicle.

In a further development of the invention, this automobile emergency case can also be used in the motorboat sector. If properly designed - as well as the intended Morse flashing signal device on the emergency warning device - the motorboat emergency case can now also be waterproof and floatable.

Comparison of techniques - their use -

Conventional on-board emergency equipment for motor vehicles is known and is also partly used.
e.g. breakdown tool kit - first aid kit - fire extinguisher - warning triangle -

Car accident folder (note material, double meter, camera) - hand lamps - emergency lights - tow rope/rods - car - truck special emergency hammer etc. Furthermore, the AEG car emergency call system - Germany, the Chrysler, satellite car emergency call tracking system - USA, as well as the emergency symbol triangles - inscriptions - BREAKDOWN or DOCTOR etc., as well as emergency symbol hand trowels,
as well as various other systems of emergency symbolism.

Basically, however, to the detriment of drivers and all those affected, all of today's automotive emergency assistance technologies are packed in detail and installed in different ways. They are also housed and stored in different ways in the vehicle.

e.g. in the trunk etc., with motor boats, depending on the size of the boat the situation is similar.

Therefore, in an emergency, this type of individual packaging of emergency aid systems and their different storage in the vehicle can not only be cumbersome to handle, but can also become a trap.

Most of the time, the trunk lid of a car gets stuck after a driveway accident. This means that the emergency aid equipment stored in various places in the vehicle cannot always be immediately accessible. For these reasons, valuable, even life-saving, time can sometimes be lost. For yourself or for assistance and rescue operations in other emergencies.

Furthermore, the car emergency call system developed by AEG-Telefunken, which was linked to the car radio and nationwide antennas, and also entailed very high development costs, was not used. The large-scale federal guarantee required to complete the project was rejected, as it was hardly financially viable.

The Auton emergency call system, positioning via satellite, promoted by Chrysler USA, is also still in the experimental stage. A feasible future for the Americans. However, it is hardly or not at all feasible in Germany and Europe.

In addition, both emergency call systems AEG and Chrysler have a very significant disadvantage: they are only based on the radio rescue route. They lack the important combination contact for all emergencies - visible symbolic emergency display secondary emergency differentiation from the vehicle.

This would mean that passing by people willing to help could also help and intervene immediately in less serious emergencies, minor breakdowns, etc. In any case, every rescue route would be shortened. Better visibility - emergency differentiation even from the airspace.

The alternative - sparking and sighting - in one device would solve many, even almost all, problems.

This also applies to the escape route, which is via the emergency call pillars that are sometimes set up on motorways and federal highways in Germany and abroad. Here, for example, the gaps between the emergency call column and the next call system are too large.

In addition, these rescue columns are only installed at dangerous intersections - curves - on federal roads.

Nevertheless, the well-known emergency symbol signs should also be presented - inscriptions such as BREAKDOWN or DOCTOR. Their use is also partly imperfect - storage. Due to their multiple symbol signs, if they are present at all, they are usually stored in the trunk due to a lack of space. Furthermore, they are made of light material, and in stormy weather they can be thrown onto the other lane by the wind because they are placed behind the vehicle. This endangers other traffic and ultimately themselves. In addition, these emergency signs can only be seen by overtaking traffic.

The emergency symbol hand batons are similar to the police hand batons, one can get confused. Likewise, it is not always possible to wave to everyone or etc., apart from the effects of the weather.

Comparison of techniques - their use -

It can also be mentioned that with the conventionally known automotive emergency systems described on pages 2-3 as well as the emergency symbol sign handkerchiefs, use and compact storage in the modern, future-proof automotive emergency case would not be possible or only partially possible due to the structure, for obvious reasons as well as for practical safety considerations.

On the other hand, a combination with the experimental or equally well-known car emergency call radio tracking systems from AEG-BRD and Chrysler USA via or with the emergency warning device - symbolic - secondary emergency differentiation (visible) as well as its safety-technical installation would have been an excellent solution to all problems.

In addition, it was also time to develop this automotive emergency case, because the oversupply of automotive accessories - emergency systems, which in many cases are very similar, was becoming too much for drivers to cope with, and not just in terms of space.

Because of the combinative system of the car case, all emergency systems are selected, specially manufactured, weight and size determined this based on the latest automotive emergency on-board equipment.

This planning also allows for removal and retrofitting without any problems and without a lack of space in the vehicle for the driver.

Furthermore, the automotive emergency case could be adapted to the color design of the seat upholstery in the vehicle.

Alternatives:

According to the current state of technology, automobiles and motorboats have become technically safer to operate and accident-proof due to the safety and quality efforts of the manufacturers and due to government legislation, but unfortunately accidents, emergencies and minor breakdowns are almost impossible to avoid.

This is precisely why this combined invention, which provides on-board emergency equipment for cars that is sometimes survivable and which also corresponds to the latest experiences and situations, is intended to be a further major step towards the safety of the general public on the road.

The aim of the present combination invention was to create a way of eliminating all the known disadvantages mentioned above. Giving drivers more safety, better equipping them for all emergencies, thereby making them better helpers, and allowing everyone affected to be helped more quickly and in a more targeted manner. It also makes the work of all helpful helpers - aid and rescue services - easier in emergencies.

In addition, the new automobile emergency case is immediately presented to the expert observer in its progressive, forward-looking, technical, medical advantages and design.

According to the invention, this is now achieved by designing the automobile emergency case with a combination system in which all safety-related emergency technology - such as sheet 1 - can be accommodated in the motor vehicle.

The basic housing of the car emergency case now has a prepared compartment in the middle for the emergency warning device, in the size ratio of a medium-sized portable radio (see drawing), which can be opened from above. Cover dust flap on one side (top) for the SOS device.

The sides, front and bottom parts of the device compartment are sturdily constructed but softly lined with foam rubber or other material.

Furthermore, in the middle compartment of the case - on the front sides - there are inlet rails for inserting and better storing of emergency equipment.

Furthermore, four separate or simple compartments are now provided on the left and right sides, extending over the entire length and height of the automobile emergency case.

So that two compartments are planned on the left and right to hold a part of the breakdown tool and the car medicine cabinet, kept clean and sterile separately. This is for better weight distribution when storing and carrying.

There are two remaining compartments on the left and right of the emergency case for retrofitting

or for other purposes.

Here, too, all compartments are sturdily constructed and softly designed.

In addition, the side compartments can be folded out preferably in a step system, are covered from above and on the sides so that nothing gets soaked easily in rain etc. during use. (Step system on both sides)

On the front and rear sides of the car emergency case there is also a compartment on the outside, one for storing accident notes, a camera, a tape measure, etc. In every other compartment there is a miniature megaphone. This in turn has a foldable or collapsible voice bag that can be mounted.

In the lower part (floor) of the car emergency case there are also stretched over the entire length of the case, but in the total width of the emergency case two or three narrow compartments - lying next to each other - with the middle compartment holding a small fire extinguisher, pushed in the length of the emergency case, while the compartments on the right and left, also pushed in lengthwise, can each hold a warning triangle and a tow bar (small).

The special emergency hammer for the purpose of self-extrication is equipped with an integrated mini-saw (to cut the safety belts in an emergency) and a precise point hammer (to break the windows), naturally within easy reach, as is the emergency warning device, etc.

Furthermore, the automobile emergency case has an interior light that can be switched on in the evening or at night.

The automobile emergency case also has two adjustable and combinable carrying handles (straps for hanging around the neck).

Furthermore, as already mentioned, the car emergency case is made of light, safe, weatherproof and fireproof material, light closures, maximum opening and closing security, no zippers. The base and its stands are also fireproof on the sides, and the car pharmacy is divided up - put together by emergency doctors.
