Definitions

  • the invention relates to a submarine rescue suit.
  • submarine crew members For the emergency exit from a damaged submarine at a depth of water below about 80 m, submarine crew members have been given special submarine rescue suits, which provide buoyancy support on emergence and provide breathing air to the user on their way from the damaged submarine to the water surface.
  • Such a submarine rescue suit is in GB 2 441 959 A described.
  • This submarine rescue suit completely wraps its user.
  • the rescue suit Before leaving a submarine, it is necessary to fill a buoyancy collar formed on the suit with air.
  • the rescue suit has an air supply connection.
  • This air supply connection can be connected to an air supply device arranged in the emergency exit shaft of the submarine, which is arranged there specifically for the removal of persons from the submarine.
  • an outer hatch of the emergency exit shaft can be opened and the person or persons located in the emergency exit shaft can leave the submarine and emerge on the water surface.
  • buoyancy collar of the submarine rescue suit can be filled here with an additionally entrained compressed air cylinder with air, but the user of the submarine rescue suit on the compressed air cylinder no breathing air can be supplied. For breathing, if necessary, the air remaining in the pressure body after a water ingress can still be used, provided that it is not too contaminated.
  • a person desiring to leave the submarine must keep at least one hood of the submarine rescue suit covering the head otherwise closed in order to breathe the residual air contained in the pressure body, or if that air is contaminated or the air pressure has a certain value can also breathe when the hood of the submarine rescue suit is open via an accompanying separate respirator connected to the submarine's respiratory emergency system.
  • the fact that the submarine rescue suit must be at least partially open until shortly before the emergency exit from the submarine to the emergency air supply increases the stress situation in which the person is in front of an emergency exit from a damaged submarine per se.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a submarine rescue suit, the preparation for An emergency exit via a hatch, which is not the exterior hatch of an emergency exit shaft, is simplified.
  • the submarine rescue suit of the invention is preferably a waterproof solid-body suit, i. H. a suit that completely envelops its user.
  • a waterproof solid-body suit i. H. a suit that completely envelops its user.
  • an embodiment of the submarine rescue suit as a jacket or Jerkin is conceivable.
  • the submarine rescue suit includes a head-covering, closed hood that provides a breathing air reservoir for its user and buoyancy support after exiting the submarine.
  • the submarine rescue suit has an additional buoyancy body that can be filled with air, which allows a faster ascent to the water surface.
  • the basic idea of the invention is to design this submarine rescue suit in such a way that the respiratory emergency system usually present in a submarine, which is to be regarded as independent of the air supply device arranged in the emergency exit shaft, can be used to supply at least one and preferably all air-supplied devices of the Submarine rescue suits to provide the required air, so that prior to the emergency exit from the submarine, for example, no separate Compressed air tank or special breathing apparatus must be kept.
  • the submarine rescue suit according to the invention has connection means with which at least one device of the submarine rescue suit to be supplied with air can be connected to the respiratory emergency system of the submarine.
  • the respiratory emergency system has an air supply line extending substantially over the entire length of the submarine, at which a plurality of air extraction connections are formed at certain intervals, so that close to all the outlets suitable for an emergency exit on the pressure body, such as a Torpedobeladeluk, usually always such an air extraction connection, to which then the air to be supplied device of the submarine rescue suit can be connected with the dedicated connection means.
  • such a device to be supplied with air can be a respiration device.
  • This ventilator unlike heretofore customary, is an integral part of the submarine rescue suit and can be conduit connected to the submarine's respiratory emergency system.
  • the submarine rescue suit preferably has an air supply line routed through the submarine rescue suit into the suit interior, the end of which is arranged outside the submarine rescue suit having a connection for the respiratory emergency system of the submarine.
  • the air supply line expediently opens in the region of the hood covering the user's head.
  • the air supply line of the ventilation device may be expediently formed at least as long that arranged on the air supply line connection for the Atemnotluftstrom the submarine always within reach of the user of Unterseebootrettungsanzugs located.
  • the portion of the air supply conduit exiting the submarine rescue suit may e.g. be so long that the person carrying the submarine rescue suit can connect the air supply line to the respiratory emergency system with the arm extended.
  • the end of the air supply line located in the interior of the submarine rescue suit may eventually discharge freely into the hood of the submarine rescue suit covering the user's head.
  • a mouthpiece may be formed so that the user of the submarine rescue suit can directly breathe the breathing air provided by the Atemnotluftstrom of the submarine.
  • a pressure regulator is arranged on the input side of the mouthpiece in order to reduce the air pressure prevailing in the respiratory emergency system to the required respiratory air pressure.
  • the position of the pressure regulator on the air supply line of the submarine rescue suit is basically arbitrary. So this pressure regulator, for example, similar to the regulator of a compressed air diving device directly on the input side the mouthpiece and thus be arranged within the suit.
  • the pressure regulator may also be provided on a section of the air supply line outside the submarine rescue suit.
  • the air-filled device of the submarine rescue suit may be the inflatable buoyancy body formed thereon. That is, at the submarine rescue suit may be provided a line connected to the buoyancy body port which is connectable to the Atemnotluftstrom the submarine, whereby the buoyancy body can be filled with air.
  • the buoyant body is preferably a buoyancy collar to be filled with air, which can be conductively connected to the respiratory emergency system of the submarine via an air supply line connected thereto.
  • This buoyancy collar is arranged in a manner known per se on an area of the submarine rescue suit which lies above the shoulder of its user. By the buoyancy collar can be connected to the Atemnotluftstrom of the submarine, in an emergency exit via a Druck Eisenluk the previously carried to inflate the buoyancy collar compressed air cylinder is no longer required.
  • the submarine rescue suit can comprise both a ventilation device and an inflatable buoyancy body, both of which can be connected with suitable connection means to the respiratory emergency system of the submarine.
  • two connections can be provided on the submarine rescue suit, one of which provides a line connection to the ventilation device and the other a line connection to the buoyancy body.
  • the ventilation device and the inflatable buoyancy body are connectable only via a common connection to the Atemnotluftstrom the submarine, wherein switching means can be provided with which successively a line connection of this connection with the buoyancy body and the ventilation device can be created.
  • the submarine rescue suit according to the invention should still be suitable for the emergency exit via the emergency exit shaft of the submarine.
  • it preferably has a connection to the air supply of the buoyant body, which can be connected specifically to the air supply device arranged in the emergency exit shaft. Since this connection is not compatible with the connection of the emergency respiratory supply, an adapter is advantageously provided, which can be fastened to the connectable to the air supply device of the emergency exit slot connection, whereby this connection can also be connected to the Atemnotluftstrom the submarine.
  • connection of the buoyancy body provided specifically for connection to the air supply device arranged in the emergency exit shaft and to connect the buoyant body only to a connection which is designed for connection to the respiratory air conditioning system of the submarine.
  • an adapter is provided which is attachable to the connection of the buoyant body and allows connection to the arranged in the emergency exit duct air supply device.
  • a further adapter can be provided, the design of which makes it possible to simultaneously connect a line connected to the respiration device and one to the inflatable buoyancy body line connected connection to the Atemnotluftstrom of the submarine.

  • the buoyancy collar 8 is an inflatable buoyancy body, so it can, as well as the hood 6, be filled with air.
  • a first tubular air supply line 10 is connected to the buoyancy collar 8. At the free end of the supply line 10, a terminal 12 is formed.
  • the air supply line 10 is provided for connection to an air supply device usually provided in emergency exit shafts of submarines.
  • the connection 12 of the air supply line 10 corresponds to a boat-side connection of the air supply device in the emergency exit shaft.
  • the port 12 is not suitable for connection to an air extraction connection 16 of an emergency respiratory air system 14 (FIG. Fig.2 ) to be connected.
  • a further connection 18 is provided on the submarine rescue suit 4, which is also conductively connected to the buoyancy collar 8 via an air supply line 20 in the form of a hose.
  • the two supply lines 10 and 20 connected to the buoyancy collar 8 are formed so long that the terminals 12 and 18 arranged at the ends of these lines are within the reach of the person 2.
  • the submarine rescue suit 4 has a ventilation device for the person 2.
  • a tubular air supply line 22 which is guided at a passage 24 in the region of the hood 6 in the interior of the submarine rescue suit 4. So that no air can escape from the hood 6, the air supply line 22 is sealed relative to the bushing 24 airtight.
  • a connection 26 is arranged at the end of the air supply line 22 located outside the submarine rescue suit 4. The connection 26 serves to be able to connect the ventilation device to the air extraction connections 16 of the respiratory emergency system 14.
  • a mouthpiece 28th On the inside of the submarine rescue suit 4 arranged end of the air supply line 22 is a mouthpiece 28th arranged, which is preceded by a pressure regulator, not shown in the drawing.
