Description

Rescue basket, as well as equipped Hubrettungsfahrzeug

The invention relates to a rescue cage for a Hubrettungsfahrzeug, in particular a fire engine with ladder, comprising a basket bottom, a basket surround and at least one particular columnar trained and towering from the basket bottom support element, which is arranged at least one support element in the outer edge region of the basket bottom. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a rescue rescue vehicle equipped with such a rescue vehicle, as described in the preamble of claim 17. In addition, however, the invention also relates to a person receiving unit, in particular a stretcher receiving device, stretcher chair receiving device or wheelchair aufme device.

In previous reciprocating rescue vehicles, in particular with an aerial ladder, and the rescue cage arranged thereon, at least one so-called multifunctional column has been fixedly arranged on the outer peripheral region of the rescue cage for receiving and holding a stretcher support. This multifunctional column protrudes from the bottom of the basket into the area of the handrail or upper guardrail. At the end region facing away from the basket bottom, the at least one multifunctional column has a receiving device for a connecting element connectable therewith. The connecting element may be arranged on the hospital truss bearing or another attachment, such as a water gun, a Löschmitteldüse, a headlight or the like. Since the height of the multi-function column is selected so that it extends into the area of the handrail, the patient support is located above the handrail and can thus depending on the design of the bearing by a large angle range as needed in terms of

Rescue basket pivoted or twisted. In this case, the arrangement of the at least one multi-function column in the region of the left and / or right side of the basket can be done. In another embodiment, two multi-functional columns have been fixedly secured in a central portion of the basket front to the bottom of the basket. A disadvantage of the lateral recording of the ambulance storage on the rescue cage introduced on the ladder set torsional moment. Furthermore, the handling, in particular the immediate assistance by the helper or the rescuers, is recorded on the stretcher bearing. taken patient due to the located high above the basket floor position difficult.

The present invention has for its object to provide a rescue cage for a Hubret- tion vehicle, in particular with an aerial ladder, as well as equipped with such a rescue cage Hubrettungsfahrzeug, in which the handling of the patient facilitates and better care of the same during the rescue operation is made possible. In addition, however, the inclusion of at least one person sitting on a wheelchair or a stretcher chair in this rescue cage should also be made easier and more energy-saving for the rescue personnel independently of this. In addition, a high possibility of variation of the rescue cage for a wide variety of operating conditions should generally be created.

This object of the invention is achieved in that at least one first receiving device is arranged or formed on the basket bottom in the region of the at least one support element, wherein the at least one support element has on its side facing the basket bottom a first connection element, which first connection element can be detached as required the first receiving device is connectable. The advantages achieved thereby are that even with turntables with a rescue cage the possibility can be created to open this otherwise accessible only through narrow passages or access openings basket bottom in the region of its front basket so far that near the bottom of a person receiving unit can be attached if necessary , As a result of the possibility now created of making parts of the basket reinforcement detachable, displaceable or fold-away, the care of the person to be rescued and the subsequent handling of the stretcher for the auxiliary personnel are made considerably easier. This creates a reversible conversion option from a closed protective structure of the rescue cage to a basket base which is freely accessible in the area of its cage walling, in particular its front side, and back to full closed training. Compared with the otherwise customary arrangement of the person receiving unit designed as a stretcher receiving device above the handrail, in which a direct intensive care, such as a resuscitation during transport in the rescue cage difficult or even impossible, this is at the ground level Aufnah considerably simpler in the rescue cage. If, on the other hand, the person to be rescued or rescued is close to the floor of the basket bottom, life-saving immediate measures can be taken immediately after receiving the stretcher at the person receiving unit and they can be carried out until further rescue personnel are on the ground. Furthermore, but also the subsequent removal of the stretcher is facilitated by the stretcher receiving device in the area of the footprint or the terrain of the Hubrettungsfahrzeugs, since the removal height can be lowered to near the ground level. If, on the other hand, a wheelchair or a stretcher chair is accommodated in the rescue cage for rescue purposes together with a person, a discharge close to the floor can also be carried out here simply. This opening can thus be done if necessary, in normal use for firefighters or other rescue and rescue the Korbumwehrung protects the person or persons located in the rescue cage from falling.

A further embodiment provides that when the support element is removed from the first receiving device, at least one second connecting element arranged or formed on an accessory part can be detachably connected to the first receiving device as required. Thus, the possibility is created that the corresponding released by the removal of the at least one support element in the bottom area of the rescue cage and for an accessory or a functional element connected to a matching the first receiving device connecting element and thus can be held on the rescue cage. Furthermore, but also a high degree of flexibility of the rescue cage is achieved, since in this after the removal of the support element in the vacant recording device, the most diverse tools can be used and maintained. Furthermore, it is advantageous if a first locking element is arranged or formed on the at least one supporting element, in particular on its first connecting element, or on the at least one second connecting element of the accessory, and on the at least one first receiving device, a second locking element, which arresting elements in the interconnected position of the first connecting element and the first receiving device or the second connecting element and the first receiving device engage with each other and each form a locking device. As a result, an unintentional removal of the support element, in particular if this part of the Korbumwehrung is prevented. By arranging or providing the ar- Retierelemente and the locking device formed therefrom can be created as a secure position fixation until deliberately releasing the locking device. This can significantly increase the safety of the person in the rescue cage. In this case, a multiple locking or Mehrfacharretierung is possible. Furthermore, so that a variety of accessories, in particular the people receiving units, with the at least disposed thereon second connection element also locked in the rescue cage are kept. This also prevents inadvertent loosening of the accessories from the rescue cage. Another possible embodiment has the features that the at least second connecting element of the accessory with the interposition of at least one spacer element, if necessary, releasably connected to the first receiving device is connected. Thus, by arranging the additional spacer element, the distance between the accessory, in particular the person receiving unit, can be varied by the basket bottom defining the contact surface. This can create an even more universal possibility of using the rescue cage with the attached accessory.

A further embodiment provides that, in particular in a middle section of the basket front side and in the longitudinal extent thereof, a plurality of, in particular two, spaced-apart first receiving devices are arranged or formed on the basket bottom. This creates the possibility of being able to position the support element or elements in different positions on the rescue cage. In addition, however, as well as several support elements next to each other in the region of the basket circumference, if necessary, be releasably secured. As a result, an even greater possibility of variation for the opening of the basket surround the rescue cage can be created. Furthermore, but also a mutually different placement of the accessories, in particular the person receiving unit, can be achieved on the rescue cage.

Another embodiment is characterized in that each one of the first receiving devices one of the support elements can be fastened, wherein the support elements, in particular in the region facing away from the basket bottom ends, are connected to each other via at least one connecting element extending therebetween. In particular, in the area of the front side of the basket with mounted support elements, a secure removal of conclusion and the training of the basket reinforcement. Furthermore, the free space formed between the two support elements can also serve as access opening, which can be closed as required by arranging a folding ladder. A further embodiment provides that the at least one first receiving device is designed as a sleeve. Thus, a recording of the first compound selements together with the support element or even a second connection element of an accessory or a person receiving unit can be added in the smallest space. As a result, a simple combination option can be created for a wide variety of applications.

A further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the at least one support element has a second receiving device in its end region facing away from the basket bottom, wherein the second connecting element of the accessory can be detachably connected to the second receiving device as required. By providing the second receiving device, an attachment can be detachably held on the support basket arranged on the rescue cage, if necessary. In addition, however, the possibility is also created to be able to hold the person receiving unit, in particular the stretcher receiving device, in a position distanced from the basket bottom.

Furthermore, it is advantageous if the Korbumwehrung has at least one closable access opening, which access opening is arranged in particular in the region of the basket front. Thus, a lighter approach can be achieved or leaving the rescue cage for the rescue services and the operator can be facilitated. Due to the provision of the closable access opening, in spite of the removable supporting elements, even when they are present, it is easy to get into the rescue cage or leave it. If the access opening is provided in the region of the front of the basket, a larger opening width of the front of the basket can thus be achieved when the or the support elements are removed. Thus, a quick rebuilding of the rescue cage can be done in a few steps and thus the various accessories, in particular the person receiving unit, are arranged and fixed on this. A further possible embodiment has the features that the at least one closable access opening extends from the at least one support element into the region of the left and / or right-hand basket side. This creates the possibility of achieving the largest possible opening width of the rescue cage in the area of the front of the basket. Since the access openings are usually closed by swivel or sliding doors, and the opening of the front basket side can be performed quickly and without the aid of auxiliary s tools for the conversion to accommodate the people receiving unit. Furthermore, almost the perfect width or length of the front of the basket can thus be opened easily, and a large receiving space is available on the rescue cage. This can be easily loaded or unloaded in ground level location.

Another embodiment is characterized in that the rescue cage and / or the accessory at least one adjusting means, in particular a winch, a chain hoist, a bottle, a linear actuator, a spindle drive, a rack drive, a pressure medium-actuated drive, or a deflection roller is arranged , Thus, the inclusion of the stretcher or a wheelchair or a stretcher chair on the person receiving unit for the rescue personnel is much easier. The support of the actuating means thus makes it possible to more easily transport even heavier persons, for example via ramps or other aids, into the area of the rescue cage and the person-receiving unit arranged there.

Furthermore, it is advantageous if the adjusting means by means of a coupling s device, if necessary, releasably connected to the accessory. This allows even greater flexibility in rescue operations and rapid conversion to changing conditions of use.

A further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the accessory is selected from the group of headlamps, high-pressure ventilators, water cannons or holders thereof, ramp, person receiving unit such as stretcher receiving device, stretcher chair receiving device or wheelchair receiving device. Due to the different designs of the male accessories a more universal use of the rescue cage is made possible. Thus, a change or conversion from an ad- hearing aid to another accessory, which can respond quickly to changing operating conditions.

A further possible embodiment has the features that the ramp is arranged on the accessory formed as a person receiving unit, which is in particular releasably held thereto. Thus, the acquisition or transfer of the stretcher, the wheelchair or stretcher chair on the person receiving unit or the rescue cage can be substantially facilitated. Furthermore, the possibility can also be created of forming an additional platform as an extension of the respective person receiving unit in order to be able to bridge larger distances between structures and the rescue cage.

Another embodiment is characterized in that the ramp is designed to be pivotable. Thus, after receiving the respective transport or rescue means on the person receiving unit as well as for the subsequent transport in the area of the rescue cage an additional safeguard against unintentional shifting up to the crash can be created.

A further preferred embodiment is characterized in that the ramp can be locked in at least one of its pivot positions by means of a locking device. This can be an even better protection against unwanted shifts are created.

The object of the invention is, however, independently solved by the features of claim 17. The advantages resulting from the combination of features of this claim are that even with turntables with a rescue cage the possibility is created to open this otherwise accessible only through narrow passages or access openings basket bottom in the area of his Korbumwehrung far enough that near the bottom of an accessory , In particular, a person receiving unit can be attached if necessary. Due to the possibility now created, parts of the Korbumwehrung removable or fold away form, thus the care and the subsequent handling of the stretcher for the auxiliary staff is much easier. Furthermore, due to the approximately central arrangement of the person receiving unit with respect to the longitudinal extension of the ladder set the turntable introduced a lower eccentric force on the turntable. Thus, twisting of individual conductors of the ladder set of the turntable can be reduced or even avoided. Compared to the otherwise usual arrangement of the person receiving unit, in particular the stretcher receiving device, above the handrail, in which a direct intensive care, such as a resuscitation during transport in the rescue cage is difficult, if not impossible at all, this is much easier at the ground level recording. In addition, as well as the removal in the ground area can be significantly facilitated by the rescue personnel, since the removal height can be lowered to near the ground level and thus the footprint of the Hubrettungsfahrzeugs. If, on the other hand, the person to be rescued is close to the bottom of the basket bottom, immediate life-saving immediate measures can be taken immediately after receiving the stretcher at the person receiving unit and they can be carried out until further rescue personnel are on the ground. This opening can thus be done if necessary, in normal use for firefighters or other rescue and rescue the Korbumwehrung protects the person or persons located in the rescue cage from falling. Independently of this, the object of the invention can also be achieved by the person receiving unit, as characterized in claim 18. Thus, it is provided here that an adjusting means, in particular a cable winch, a chain hoist, a pulley, a linear drive, a spindle drive, a rack drive, a pressure medium-actuated drive, is arranged on the person receiving unit, in particular a stretcher receiving device, stretcher chair receiving device or wheelchair receiving device. This will be the

Recording the stretcher or a wheelchair or a stretcher chair on the person receiving unit for the rescue personnel much easier. The support of the actuating means thus makes it possible to more easily transport even heavier persons, for example via ramps or other aids, into the area of the rescue cage and the person-receiving unit arranged there.

Another possible embodiment has the features that the actuating means by means of a coupling s device, if necessary, detachable with the person receiving unit, in particular a base frame, is connected. This can be done simply as needed, a retooling and only if an additional tensile force is needed, the designated actuating means can be coupled and thus held. Furthermore, it is advantageous if a ramp is arranged on the person receiving unit, which is in particular releasably held thereto. Thus, an additional tool for the loading or unloading process can be arranged quickly on site as needed and purpose. Thus, a more universal use of the person receiving unit can be achieved.

Finally, a further embodiment provides that the ramp is designed to be pivotable and in particular can be locked in at least one of its pivotal positions by means of a locking device. This makes it possible for the loading process or the unloading process to be adapted even better to different height levels. In addition, but at the same time thus even with the appropriate position, a protective and / or fuse s effect for the recorded person can be achieved.

For a better understanding of the invention, this will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures.

By way of introduction, it should be noted that in the differently described embodiments, the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals or the same component names, wherein the disclosures contained in the entire description can be mutatis mutandis to the same parts with the same reference numerals or component names. Also, the position information selected in the description, such as top, bottom, side, etc. related to the immediately described and illustrated figure and these position information in a change in position mutatis mutandis to transfer to the new location. The term "in particular" is understood below to mean that it may be a possible more specific training or specification of an item, but not necessarily a compelling, preferred embodiment of the same must represent. In Fig. 1 is a simplified Hubrettungsfahrzeug 1 shown, which can be used in the fire department or other relief and / or rescue organizations. The rescue vehicle 1 can also serve only for firefighting, but also people or animal rescue measures or technical assistance at different heights or depths can be carried out with it. Thus, in the present exemplary embodiment, the rescue vehicle 1 can comprise a chassis 2 shown only in simplified form, an aerial ladder 3 arranged thereon with a ladder set and a rescue cage 4 held on the ladder set of the rotary ladder 3. The turntable 3 comprises a rotary or pivoting arrangement, by means of which the ladder set can be adjusted accordingly.

The Hubrettungsfahrzeug 1 but could also have a telescopic or articulated mast in place of the aerial ladder. The rescue cage 4 is usually arranged on a side facing away from the chassis 2 or from the rotary or swivel assembly end of the ladder set of turntable 3 and can be pivoted or adjusted as needed for the approach or departure to and from the site and during normal use ,

In the following, the rescue cage 4 is shown and described by itself, wherein the holder or storage on the turntable 3 is not discussed in more detail. For the training of the rescue cage 4 is also referred to the applicable standards, which also tried to make a corresponding term selection.

2 to 9 of the rescue cage 4 is shown in various views and different examples of application, wherein this comprises a basket bottom 5, a basket surround 6 and at least one, in particular columnar trained support member 7. The support element 7 can also be referred to as a multifunctional column. The basket bottom 5 can also be referred to as platform or working platform. The Korbumwehrung 6 serves to protect those on the basket bottom 5 person or persons from falling and also optionally protect against heat and / or radiation. Thus, the Korbumwehrung 6 may also be referred to as a protective device, which may be formed from a variety of individual component components. Thus, it is provided here that the support element or elements 7 are designed to be removable or removable from the basket base 5 as required. The Korbumwehrung 6 may include, for example, a handrail, baseboards in the region of the basket bottom 5, an upper guardrail and / or several additional uprights 30 or columns. The additional posts 30 are arranged in this exemplary embodiment in the lateral area of the rescue cage 4. The one or more uprights 30 are usually fixed to the rescue cage 4, in particular the basket bottom 5 is connected. It should be noted that the arrangement of the or the support elements 7 and the or the uprights 30 has been shown only by way of example and any other arrangement thereof is possible. It would also be possible to form the Korbumwehrung 6 only by removable support elements 7 or from individual formed by the support members 7, related parapet parts. Thus, the entire Korbumwehrung 6 can be removed from the basket bottom 5.

In order to allow access within the basket walling 6 to reach the basket bottom 5, one or more closable access openings 8 can be arranged or formed in the area of the basket walling 6. The access opening 8 may e.g. be formed closable by means of a hinged door, a folding ladder, a sliding door, a folding door or the like. The handrail may additionally be arranged above the access opening 8. The at least one closable access opening 8 is arranged in the present embodiment in the region of the front basket side 9, but this can also be arranged in the corner region and / or another basket side of the basket reinforcement 6.

The Korbumwehrung 6 is arranged in this embodiment in the region of a basket front side 9, in the region of a left and / or right basket side 10, 11 and possibly also in the region of a rear basket side 12.

Furthermore, the rescue cage 4, in particular its Korbumwehrung 6, also at least one, but preferably more of the columnar-like support elements 7. The columnar support elements 7 project from the basket bottom 5 and are arranged in the outer edge region of the basket bottom 5 at this. In the present embodiment, two support elements 7 are arranged in the central portion 13 in the region of the basket front side 9, which in addition to increase the inherent rigidity and formation of a frame element in particular in the region of their ends facing away from the basket bottom 5 over at least one connecting element 14 extending between these - in the present exemplary embodiment a spar - can be connected to one another. However, the connecting element 14 can also be formed by another component, for example a sheet metal part, a flat iron or the like. It is possible to form from at least two support elements 7 and one or more connecting elements 14 a matching parapet part, which is collectively removable from the basket bottom 5.

The one or more support elements 7 have a height or length that they extend from the basket bottom 5 to approximately the area of the handrail. This is located at least 1.1 m above the defined by the basket bottom 5 Auf Standsfläche. This height is currently the applicable standard and should be adjusted accordingly.

As already described above, a folding ladder can be arranged between the two, in particular columnar, support elements 7, which in the folded-in position closes the gap forming the access opening 8. Furthermore, at least one further, closable access opening 8 can also extend from the at least one support element 7 into the region of the left-hand basket side 10 and / or the right-hand basket side 11. The at least one closable access opening 8 is preferably arranged on both sides of the at least one support element 7. The access opening 8 can also be arranged several times and so also in the corner and / or at least one of the other basket pages 10 to 12.

In the present exemplary embodiment, the further access openings 8 arranged on both sides of the two columnar support elements 7 can each be closed by means of an inwardly openable folding door or a gift door.

In order to be able to form a nearly free access into the rescue cage 4 from its basket front side 9 or from the basket bottom 5 to the front basket reinforcement 6, it is provided here that at the basket bottom 5 in the region of at least one support element 7, Favor in both of Support elements 7, at least a first receiving device 15 is arranged or formed. The at least one columnar support element 7 has on its side facing the basket bottom 5 a first connecting element 16. The first connecting element 16 is required releasably connected to the first receiving device 15 connectable. This makes it possible, if necessary, to be able to remove the two support elements 7 in the region of the basket front side 9 from the rescue cage 4, or in the present exemplary embodiment. This removal can be done by removing, moving or pivoting. If two or more such support elements 7 are provided, a separate first receiving device 15 in the region of the basket bottom 5 is to be arranged or formed for each of the support elements 7 as well. In a further consequence, the at least one further through opening 8 arranged on both sides of the columnar support elements 7 and closed by the hinged door or swinging door can also be opened by pivoting it away. In this way, when the access openings 8 are opened on both sides, almost the full width of the basket bottom 5 in the region of its basket front side 9 can be released. This is best seen in FIG. 3. In the area of the basket front side 9, the two first receiving devices 15 can also be seen in the region of the basket bottom 5.

Due to the possibility now created to be able to open the Korbumwehrung 6 to a certain extent by removing at least one of the support members 7, in the at least one vacant first receiving device 15, an accessory 17 with a suitably trained counterpart can be held. The accessory 17 may be selected from the group of headlamps, high-pressure ventilators, water cannons or holders thereof, ramp, person receiving unit such as stretcher receiving device, stretcher chair receiving device or wheelchair picking device.

Referring now to Fig. 4, after releasing the basket front 9, e.g. the trained here as a person receiving unit accessory 17 near the ground mounted in the rescue cage 4 or recorded. The person receiving unit is formed in this embodiment as a stretcher receiving device, wherein the following description refers to this embodiment.

At least a second connecting element 18 is arranged or formed on the person receiving unit. For holding or fastening the person receiving unit at the retentive The basket 4, the second connecting element 18 with the first receiving device 15, if necessary, releasably connectable. The person receiving unit may also have a pivot bearing, whereby the relative angular position of the person receiving unit with respect to the longitudinal direction of the guide ladder of the ladder 3 is adjustable within certain limits. This can be done by the operator or rescue person in the course of the recording process of the stretcher with the patient to be transported. As a result, depending on the position of the rescue cage 4 with respect to the picking direction of the stretcher, a certain alignment can take place. In addition, the columnar support member 7 may have a second receiving device 19 in its end remote from the basket bottom 5 end portion 19 - see Fig. 2. Thus, when held on the basket bottom 5 on the first receiving device 15 support member 7 in the height of the handrail another not shown Accessory 17 or other attachment, such as a water gun, a Löschmitteldüse, a headlight, a cable drum, a hose reel, a hose reel or the like depending on

Need attached thereto, in particular, if necessary, releasably connected. Furthermore, there is also the possibility of the person receiving unit with its at least one second connecting element 18, if necessary, releasably connected to the second receiving device 19.

In order to facilitate the pushing movement of the stretcher to be accommodated on the person receiving unit together with the patient, an adjusting means 20 can be arranged on the rescue cage 4, in the area of the basket rear side 12 and / or directly on the person receiving unit. The adjusting means 20 can be formed, for example, by a cable winch, a chain hoist, a pulley, a linear drive, a spindle drive, a rack drive, a pressure-medium-actuated drive, or a deflection pulley or the like. The pressure-medium-actuated drive can be, for example, a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder. Furthermore, however, the adjusting means 20 can also be in drive connection with a drive unit in order to effect the required force application. The combination of the person receiving unit with the adjusting means 20 may optionally represent an independent invention in itself. If the actuating means exerts a tensile force, this can also be referred to as traction means. For supporting or fixing the actuating means 20 on the rescue cage 4, a column-shaped supporting element 7 or a post 30 could be arranged, for example, in the region of the rear side of the basket and the adjusting means 20 with the second receiving device 19 arranged or formed at the upper end region of the supporting element 7 or the post 30 If necessary, be releasably connected. For this purpose, however, the adjusting means 20 should also be equipped with at least one second connecting element 18, which can be detachably connected to the second receiving device 19 as required.

Furthermore, the adjusting means 20 could also be connected in the bottom area of the rescue cage 4 with a specially provided first receiving device 15. In addition, however, could also be the adjusting means 20 by means of a coupling device 31, if necessary releasably connected to the accessory 17 and / or the rescue cage 4. The actuating means 20 serves to transport the stretcher or stretcher, the wheelchair or stretcher chair together with the respective person thereon more easily and with less effort on the persons receiving unit, in particular the stretcher receiving device, the wheelchair receiving device or the stretcher chair receiving device, in particular. The stretcher or stretcher, the wheelchair or stretcher chair can also be generally referred to as a means of transport, which can be accommodated depending on its training on a trained accordingly receiving unit. This is usually done by a tensile force.

Furthermore, it would also be possible for a ramp 32, which is in particular detachably held thereon, to be arranged on the accessory 17, in particular the stretcher receiving device, designed as a person receiving unit. The ramp 32 may also be designed to be pivotable in order to be able to set different positions or positions thereof relative to the person receiving unit, in particular the patient carrier receiving device. In addition, the ramp 32 can be locked in at least one of its pivot positions by means of a locking device 33. The person receiving unit can be designed differently and adapted in its execution to the respective requirements. To accommodate a stretcher, even in the different size configurations depending on the height and / or mass or weight of the patient, this is generally used as a stretcher receiving device or crane. kentrage storage designated. Due to the possibility of preferably in the area of the basket front side 9 almost open trained Korbumwehrung 6 and the ground-level arrangement of the person receiving unit, the assistant or rescue person much better the recorded person, especially the patient, supervise. This especially if even during the removal in the rescue cage 4 must be started immediately with life-saving immediate measures. For this purpose, the patient is preferably recorded with his head and shoulder area in the direction of the back of the basket 12 pointing in the rescue cage 4. Thus, the legs may protrude to the side facing away from the basket back side 12 on the front side of the basket 9, but are supported by the support and the Personenaufnahmeein- unit. For the resuscitation to be carried out, the assistant or rescue person can thus assume a considerably more ergonomic and more energy-saving posture in the heart massage than would be the case with an arrangement of the person receiving unit above the handrail. As can now be better seen in FIG. 5, a first locking element 21 can be arranged or formed on the at least one column-like and removably formed support element 7. The first locking element 21 may preferably be provided or arranged in the region of the first connecting element 16. At the at least one first receiving device 15, a second locking element 22 is arranged or formed, wherein in locking engagement elements 21, 22, these form a locking device 23. This takes place when the first connecting element 16 is also in the position connected and / or coupled to the first receiving device 15. Thus, the or the support members 7 can be secured from accidental removal of the rescue skorb 4.

If at least one of the support elements 7 has now been removed from the first receiving device 15 with its first connecting element 16, the first receiving device 15 is available for receiving another connecting element. Thus, as described above, for example, a required accessory 17 with its at least one second connection element 18 can be connected to the first receiving device 15 provided for this purpose. In order to achieve an unintentional loosening and / or additional fixation here too, the first locking element 21 can also be arranged or formed on the at least one second connecting element 18. This can now also be used with the th receiving device 15 arranged or formed second locking element 22 are brought into engagement with the formation of the locking device 23. Thus, the accessory 17 can be locked or held fixed. In order to support the accessory 17, in particular the person receiving unit designed as a stretcher receiving device, at a predetermined distance above the contact surface defined by the basket bottom 5, it would also be possible for the at least second connecting element 18 of the accessory 17 with the interposition of at least one spacer element, not shown releasably connect to the first receiving device 15. The formation of the at least one spacer element can be carried out analogously to the formation of the support element 7, wherein, however, the length or height can be designed to be shorter or shorter or even longer in comparison.

The support element 7 is usually tubular. The first connection element 16 may be e.g. be designed as a plug-in pin 24 which is connected to the basket bottom 5 facing the end of the support member 7. In this case, the plug-in pin 24 protrude with a spigot 25 in the tubular support member 7. The end region of the plug-in pin 24 may be tapered conically or wedge-shaped at least in sections. Furthermore, a front end 26 of the support element 7 can be supported on a mostly flange-like projection 27 of the plug-in pin 24 in the axial direction. The projection 27 can serve as a support member for the entire support member 7 and cause an axial support on the first receiving device 15.

The first receiving device 15 is designed here as a sleeve 28, which has in its interior a substantially opposite to the spigot 24 formed spatial form. Thus, a recording and, associated therewith, a certain centering of the plug-in pin 24 and the associated support element 7 in the first receiving device 15 can be achieved. In the axial direction, the sleeve 28 may be supported thereon by a flange 29 disposed or formed thereon.

Another possibility of an embodiment of the accessory 17 as a person receiving unit would be to form it as a wheelchair receiving device or as a stretcher chair receiving device. This is shown in simplified form in FIGS. 6 to 9.

In Fig. 6 it is now shown that in the rescue cage 4 at the basket bottom 5 a wheelchair is taken for rescue and parked. For this purpose, in the present exemplary embodiment, in the region of the basket front side 9, the basket surround 6 has been at least partially removed. In order nevertheless to have a certain protection against an unintentional fall from the rescue cage 4, it is additionally shown here that the handrail is continuously formed by means of an additionally arranged, in particular rod-shaped auxiliary element 34 in the region of the basket front side 9. The one or more removable Tragele- elements 7 have already been removed here, wherein portions of the basket front side 9 can also be closed by door leaves or the like.

7 and 8, the rescue cage 4 shows that the ramp 32 is arranged on the rescue cage 4 in the region of the basket bottom 5 in order to facilitate the insertion and removal of the wheelchair or the edge support chair. The ramp 32 can be detachably attached to the rescue cage 4, in particular its basket bottom 5. For this purpose, in turn, a cooperation of a second connecting element 18, which is arranged on the ramp 32, take place with the first receiving device 15. This allows the ramp 32 to may be attached as required and also quickly removed if necessary. Furthermore, the ramp 32 may also be designed to be pivotable in order to be able to set different positions or positions thereof relative to the basket bottom 5. Likewise, in turn, the ramp 32 can be designed to be lockable in at least one of its pivotal positions by means of the locking device 33.

If, for example, a control device (not shown) for carrying out the adjustment movement of the rescue cage 4 is provided directly in the rescue cage 4 in the region of the cage defense 6, it is possible to dispose the ramp 32 off-center with respect to the width of the rescue cage 4. Likewise, it is also possible, even in a plane parallel to the basket bottom 5 to store the ramp 32 pivotally on this. Furthermore, the viewing direction of the recorded in the rescue cage and sitting on the wheelchair or stretcher chair person can be freely selected as needed. In the present exemplary embodiment, it is shown that the viewing direction is from the basket rear side 12 in the direction of the basket front side 9.

In the illustration selected in FIG. 9, it is now shown that the ramp 32 in its folded-down position is aligned relative to the basket bottom 5 with respect thereto. Thus, in the present embodiment, the person receiving unit includes the ramp 32 and extending in the region of the basket bottom 5 guide arrangement for the wheels of the wheelchair or the stretcher chair. The attachment and / or mounting of the person receiving unit can be done by connecting the second connecting element 18 with the first receiving device 15. Furthermore, the swing doors arranged in the corner area are shown in their open position, whereby almost the full width of the basket front side 9 is available for receiving the wheelchair or the stretcher chair.

Thus, if necessary, a person sitting on a wheelchair or a stretcher chair person can be easily and effectively absorbed in the rescue cage. Additional aids, such as the previously described adjusting means 20 can be used to support this.
