Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tsunami evacuation shelter that dramatically curtails evacuation time, by reducing a travel distance to an evacuation facility especially for wheel chair users, elders, children and visually handicapped persons, in view of a fact that over 20,000 people were killed in the Great East Japan Earthquake before evacuating.SOLUTION: A tsunami evacuation shelter is structured to allow a bedridden person in a need of nursing care to evacuate with an assistance by only a few caretakers and a wheel chair user to evacuate into a shelter body 1 by himself/herself. The evacuation shelter also allows a user to come out of the shelter body 1 and a shelter dock 2 by himself/herself, in a same way as the user came in.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

  The present invention relates to a tsunami evacuation shelter that can be connected to an existing building.

  In the Great East Japan Earthquake that just occurred, nearly 20,000 deaths occurred in spite of the bright time zone after 2pm. Among them, there were not a few wheelchair users and residents in elderly care facilities. This is because there were not a few people who died without taking evacuation behavior equivalent to that of healthy people, or who died without being able to complete evacuation to the rooftop of senior citizens.

  Considering the main causes, there are two important causes. The trap was a delay in starting evacuation based on the relief that a tsunami would never come. The reason is that the AC power supply was lost due to the earthquake and the elevator could not be used. As a result, the tsunami was swallowed without being able to complete the evacuation in a short time. Especially for wheelchair users and caregivers who are bedridden, the time required for evacuation requires 2 to 3 times more labor than healthy people.

  In mid-September 2014, a detailed report on tsunami damage was broadcast on a NHK TV program. It was the details of the evacuation report in the 5-story reinforced steel ward of Shizugawa Hospital in Minamisanriku Town, Miyagi Prefecture. The elevator became unusable due to a loss of external power due to a power failure. Therefore, wheelchairs and stretchers were used to move patients in the 3rd and 4th floor wards to the 5th floor. Two to three staff members were needed to move one patient. As a result, about 30 percent of hospitalized patients could be evacuated after 40 minutes. However, 70% of the patients who could not evacuate had 63 patients and 4 hospital staff killed as a result of the intrusion of seawater from the tsunami up to the 4th floor. However, according to the testimony of the director of internal medicine, it was reported that the tsunami was completely pulled out in the evening after about 3 hours. On the other hand, the medical disaster prevention manual stipulates that medical workers such as doctors and nurses should survive in priority. We recognized the necessity of development based on such contradictory field examples.

In short, the evacuation time is too short. Let us assume the most unfavorable situation in starting emergency evacuation behavior in normal social life. Winter, rainy weather, midnight, bedtime, bathing, elderly people, sick people, children, remote islands, coastlines, small villages, etc. can be considered as requirements.
Wheelchair users and cared caregivers with two or three such requirements will be able to complete the evacuation action within 5 minutes with minimal preparation. Uka. For most subjects, this is impossible. This method was devised to shorten the evacuation time.

  If there was a shelter that moved horizontally from the inside of the existing building, it would have been possible to save most wheelchair users and bedridden caregivers from being caught in the tsunami. In addition, since there are a large number of such dedicated shelters, healthy people can evacuate into the same shelter.

JP, 2013-234556, A Prior art example 1 is only a ridge and is only a slope for going up to the top stage, and when a tsunami more than expected arrives, no one is helped. In addition, the basic structure of the center column is not described at all, and it cannot be expected that it has the ability to counter the lateral moment of the tsunami. JP, 2013-249620, A In prior example 2, evacuation action must be performed from an upper shelter to a lower shelter. Both shelters have a single-layer structure made of reinforced concrete. In addition, when one of the plurality of sealed doors loses the watertightness of the watertight door due to destruction or the like, the entire interior of the lower shelter is submerged. In prior art 3, the elevator post is equipped with a rack and pinion type transporter. However, all devices are exposed outdoors, and are not durable on a daily basis. Also, assuming that there is a high possibility that AC power will be lost in the event of an earthquake, the rack-type elevator function is unlikely to function during an earthquake. In other words, it is just an outdoor staircase made of steel.

  According to the conventional common sense, it is common to embed a shelter body made of concrete or metal underground, and to enter the shelter, stairs or ladders had to be used. . It must be absolutely impossible for wheelchair users. Furthermore, until now, no tsunami evacuation shelter has been developed that allows wheelchair users to enter on their own or cared for while staying in bed.

There are two types of shelters currently on the market. One is a floating type. Certainly the risk of drowning in a tsunami has been reduced, but once you get on the tide and go out to the open ocean, it is not easily discovered. If the tsunami occurs at midnight, it is assumed that the search will not be carried out until early in the morning. The other is an underground type and completely sealed. Although the risk of drowning is also greatly reduced, it is possible to secure oxygen for 12 to 24 hours at least by using an oxygen cylinder and a carbon dioxide adsorption cleaner. If you cannot escape from the shelter or take in outside air by then, you will die due to lack of oxygen in the shelter. The present invention has been devised to solve all such problems.

  The inside of the shelter dock 2 equipped with the waterproof door 9 is divided into a plurality of floors by the composite floor panel 3, and the shelter body 1 equipped with the watertight door 8 is built in each floor. The shelter body 1 is equipped with a watertight hatch 6 at a position facing the watertight door 8, and the shelter dock 2 is equipped with an escape door 10 at a position facing the waterproof door 9. The tsunami evacuation shelter according to claim 1, wherein the shelter dock 2 is equipped with a lift chamber 35 at a position facing the existing building 38, and a lift strut is provided inside the shelter dock 2. The tsunami evacuation shelter according to claim 1, further comprising a movable platform 36 that can move up and down according to 16. Outside the click 2, tsunami shelter according to claim 1 to 3, characterized in that the external platform 5 for connecting the composite floor panel 3 and the movable platform 36 is equipped with

The shelter body 1 is assumed to be relatively small in size. Assuming a capacity of about 1 to 30 people, the volume is about 1.0 to 100 m ³ . Because there is a relationship with the site of the existing building, a relatively compact one was developed.

  A wheelchair user cannot use the one that enters the shelter body 1 by using stairs or ladders. Also, bedridden caregivers and patients who have undergone surgery and are in the recovery period are no longer worried that they will not be able to enter the shelter unless they are assisted by a third party because they are unable to walk on their own. . It became possible to complete the tsunami evacuation of bedridden caregivers with the power of a single caregiver. If the evacuation destination is on the same floor, it is easy to move the wheelchair or bet manually. In the Great East Japan Earthquake, it took time to evacuate physically handicapped users at elderly care facilities and general hospitals. With parallel movement, even a weak female caregiver can evacuate. Furthermore, when the shelter body 1 and the shelter dock 2 are configured in a hierarchical manner, the escape route is further evolved.

On the other hand, the meaning of developing a shelter that connects to an existing building is a very effective construction method when there is no time and expense to move a currently operated hospital or nursing facility to a high ground.
Considering Japan's current and near-future financial situation as a standard, it is clear that the time and cost to newly build all of the tsunami risk areas in Japan are not expected.

  Therefore, this method was devised in order to use existing buildings as much as possible and to take sufficient measures against tsunami. In all countries, the current streets are economically beneficial, as evidenced by history, and the citizens living there carry out economic activities based on the streets. Maintaining this economic activity was also an issue as an inventor.

  In this tsunami countermeasure method while maintaining the cityscape, the local residents know the local situation better than anyone else, so the approach to the rescue operation is quick. This is because the local residents think that identifying the existence of tsunami evacuation shelters located next to or in the neighborhood is the most understood. In the near future, there will be a need for police, fire departments, and local governments to be equipped with ledgers to understand underground shelters.

Considering the examples of the East Japan Earthquake, it is better to assume that the arrival of the Self-Defense Forces, fire brigade, police, etc. will take at least 24 hours. The rest is a fight against oxygen deficiency. Fortunately, liquid oxygen cylinders for medical use are always available in hospitals and elderly care facilities. Compared to ordinary buildings, it is the greatest advantage that there is a sufficient reserve of liquid oxygen. Also, a sufficient stockpile can be expected for carbon dioxide adsorbents and the like. It is also an advantage that hospital staff are accustomed to handling oxygen cylinders and carbon dioxide adsorption devices.

  This method also requires a short construction time on site. In particular, even if it is installed in a small island on the coast or in the coastline, it is not necessary to prepare a large construction machine, so the speed of diffusion can be expected. In the near future, it will be able to spread to the zero-meter zone around the world.

  The biggest advantage of the construction is that it can be started at a relatively low cost compared to a full rebuild. There are other developments for evacuation shelters during the construction of new homes, but there are no other existing buildings. It will be possible to increase the spread rate in the future.

  The description of FIG. 1 will be given. The escape dock 2 made of reinforced concrete or steel reinforced concrete equipped with a watertight door 8 is divided into a plurality of floors by one or more composite floor panels 3, and the shelter body 1 equipped with a watertight door 8 inside. Are located on each floor. The present invention has also been devised as a shelter that can be connected to an existing building. The shelter body 1 is made of glass fiber, carbon fiber, Kepler fiber, reinforced plastic, concrete, or a metal or a lightweight product made in a factory, or a semi-finished product. About a shape, it is set as the range which can be considered as the physical property of a lightweight material with a cube, a cylinder, and a polyhedron.

  The Example showed the example applied to the two-story building with many common houses. In order to avoid any impact from debris when a tsunami occurred, the height of the shelter dock 2 was lowered. Thereby, although the height and level | step difference of the floor floor of the building of 1st and 2nd floor arise, the problem was solved by the shelter staircase 40 of the shelter main body 1. FIG. When the height of the shelter dock 2 is increased, the number of installed PC piles 17 and the cost of the concrete foundation portion are increased.

  When the building door 15 of the existing building 38 is opened, the waterproof door 9 equipped in the shelter dock 2 can be opened. After moving to the boarding platform 13, the watertight door 8 equipped on the shelter body 1 can be opened to evacuate inside the shelter body 1. If the existing building 38 remains after the tsunami leaves, you can easily escape. Moreover, even if all the buildings are dead, you can easily escape from the 1st and 2nd floors.

  Regarding the shelter dock 2, the outer peripheral six surfaces are basically made of reinforced concrete or steel reinforced concrete. The wall thickness was about 20 to 40 cm. The reason for this is that normal Portland cement-based concrete that is currently used shrinks and shrinks, so that dry shrinkage cracks are generated on the surface of the concrete, and water and carbon dioxide enter the cracks and deteriorate. Because it promotes. However, if dry shrinkage cracks can be prevented with concrete mixed with steel fibers and resin fibers, the wall thickness can be reduced or increased. In addition, if there is an economic margin, it is possible to have a shape in which the inside is reinforced with a continuous iron plate. In the future, we decided to actively use new products as they become available.

  The composite floor panel 3 can be made of reinforced concrete when the shelter body 1 is a small one for 2 to 3 persons. However, when a relatively large shelter body 1 is equipped as in the embodiment shown in the later stage, it is difficult to manufacture the reinforced concrete. It is desirable that the watertight performance between the floors is ensured. However, the heavy floor weight of each floor is disadvantageous in terms of structure. Therefore, a composite floor panel 3 made of steel panel and concrete was devised. When the composition of the composite floor panel 3 is possible due to the development of newly developed materials such as carbon fiber and aramid fiber, they were actively used. As a result, the heavy shelter body 1 can be built in the shelter dock 2.

  In order to ensure the water tightness of each floor, the thickness of the reinforced concrete on the floor must be about 20 to 30 cm. When the large shelter body 1 is stored, the horizontal projected area of the floor becomes large, the floor of the reinforced concrete is greatly bent, and this causes cracks. If the floor is made thicker, the structure of the shelter dock 2 that supports it will also increase. If the wall thickness of the shelter dock 2 is increased, cracks due to drying shrinkage, surface cracks due to thermal expansion, and the like are likely to occur, which is disadvantageous for long-term strength maintenance. Therefore, it is desirable to keep the wall thickness of the shelter dock 2 to the minimum necessary wall thickness.

About PC pile, installation is necessary in the case of soft ground where N value is insufficient from the results of boring surveys used in general civil engineering construction. In addition, since the shelter dock 2 may not be required even when installed in the ground by a semi-underground construction method, it is not included in the constituent elements of the claim.

The description of FIG. 2 will be given. In hospitals and elderly facilities, we devised a way to evacuate in a short time, even for those who are bedridden and caregivers and who can only move by wheelchair. A tsunami countermeasure shelter can be equipped simply by adding a heavy steel structure building adjacent to an existing reinforced concrete building on the middle and high floors. This is because the power supply is stopped when the earthquake occurs. In that case, it is impossible to move up and down the floor using the elevator. Therefore, we devised that evacuation behavior can be completed simply by moving in parallel on each floor.

  If the watertightness can be ensured by the performance of the shelter body 1 alone, the composite floor panel 3 corresponding to the floor and ceiling of each floor does not need to be equipped with a high degree of watertight performance. First, only the shelter body 1 installed on each floor corresponds to the water pressure resistance. And it was supposed to counteract the water pressure resistance secondarily by the six-way structural members consisting of the floor on the roof floor surrounding each floor, the outer walls of east, west, north and south, and the floor on the first floor. By implementing this form, there is no need to newly build a new expensive tsunami evacuation building. Tsunami countermeasures can be completed simply by expanding the existing building. It was very economical.

  Further, the shelter dock 2 can be more resistant to the lateral moment force caused by the tsunami by being connected to the existing building by the connecting anchor 7. The material of the connection anchor 7 is made of metal. If there is something already sold as a general building material, use it actively to reduce costs. However, when there is a risk that the shelter dock 2 will collapse by connecting in reverse, such as when the existing building does not meet the criteria such as seismic performance, it is not connected. In such a case, it was avoided by reviewing the structural strength such as the method of increasing the number of PC piles 17 and the wall thickness of the shelter dock 2.

  When the shelter dock 2 is constructed, it is economically cheap because it is an economical method if the anchor 7 can be fixed to an existing building using a chemical anchor made of two-component epoxy resin used in general construction work. I decided to use it. After calculating the outer diameter of deformed reinforcing bars, we decided to use an outer diameter that can sufficiently handle the transverse moment caused by the tsunami and a sufficient number.

In the present embodiment, in the case where the shelter dock 2 is constructed in a hierarchical structure, the floor portion of the shelter dock 2 and the members of the ceiling portion directly below are shared. Since the shelter body 1 that can be entered by the care recipient who is using the bet is relatively large, the shelter dock 2 located on the outer periphery thereof is also increased in proportion. However, although the shelter dock 2 was developed as reinforced concrete in the initial stage of development, it cannot be constructed only from reinforced concrete in terms of physical properties. Since the beam direction and the beam direction are likely to be 5 to 6 m or more in length, the composite floor panel 3 in which the floor is made of steel plate or steel-framed reinforced concrete is devised.

  The explanation of FIG. 3 will be given. Since all the entrances / exits are not always blocked by the earthquake debris, it was devised so that the staircase 18 can be reached if the escape door 10 is opened. In general architecture, the landing 11 portion of the staircase 18 also serves as the outdoor platform 19. The staircase 18 also serves to protect the escape door 10 from the impact of earthquake rubble. The staircase 18 has a sealed structure on the outer periphery, but it has been devised to provide a draining slit near the landing 11 on each floor if the safety can be confirmed by strength calculation.

  The escape route also reaches the staircase 18 via the watertight hatch 6 and the watertight door 10. In the present embodiment, an outdoor staircase that can be built in a normal general building is shown. However, if there is room for the building area, etc., it is devised to secure a wide floor area for the landing 11 of the staircase 18. A large space is required to evacuate wheelchair users and bedridden caregivers. If the escape route can be secured in the direction of the existing building, the latter route can be used. A penthouse 37 is equipped at the top of the staircase 18 and the watertight door 10 is opened to complete the escape to the outdoors.

  Both the watertight door 8 and the watertight hatch 6 have a structure with a water pressure resistance of a depth of 5 to 35 m. Basically, the waterproof door 9 and the escape door 10 also have water pressure resistance of a depth of 5 to 35 m. However, in the method for reducing the manufacturing cost, the waterproof door 9 and the escape door 10 may have a structure having a water pressure resistance of about 5 to 10 m. The grounds for this were devised that impacts caused by impacts such as earthquake debris were avoided by the shelter dock 2, and avoidance of submersion by water pressure was avoided by the performance of the shelter body 1.

  The waterproof door 9 is originally installed on the side surface of the shelter dock 2, but as shown in the embodiment, if the thickness and mechanical strength of the existing building are sufficiently secured, the waterproof door 9 should be installed on the wall of the existing building. It was also possible. However, the condition is that the gap between the flange portion of the waterproof door 9 and the wall portion of the existing building has sufficient water tightness.

  In addition, by installing the shelter dock 2 on the ground, it was devised not only for wheelchair users but also for elderly people and sick people who could not evacuate and get out of bed with nursing care. . Certainly, it is undeniable that the required capacity will be huge and the construction cost will be high. However, the greatest feature of the invention is that any general citizen can evacuate from the tsunami.

The explanation of FIG. 4 will be given. The outdoor platform 19 was equipped to finally assist the escape from the external platform 5. Since it is installed outdoors, it has a structure that can withstand tsunami impacts and earthquake debris collisions. Alternatively, a structure that can avoid an impact as a removable type or a movable type is adopted. The material was made of metal or resin fiber and had sufficient strength.

Inside the lift chamber 35, lift columns 16 are provided between the ground floor and the rooftop floor. The movable platform 36 can move from the position of the outdoor platform 5 on each floor to a position where it can escape from the top floor according to the lift column 16. In the event of an earthquake, the external power supply is lost, so it was basically moved manually. In addition, if the power source can be secured by the restoration of the external power supply, it will be electrically driven and can be moved up and down.

  The lift chamber 35 is housed inside a shelter dock 2 that is originally made of reinforced concrete or a steel reinforced concrete having a structure equivalent to that of the shelter dock 2. However, in consideration of the reduction of construction cost, it was devised so that watertight performance of about 2-10 m is possible. However, the structure should withstand the impact of the earthquake debris at a minimum. From the case of the Great East Japan Earthquake, watertight performance of 25-35m is required. However, in order to give the members other than the shelter body 1 the same watertight performance as that of the shelter body 1, the problem of excessively high manufacturing costs is avoided.

  In other words, only the shelter body 1 into which humans enter has a watertight performance of up to about 35 m. The other members were also considered to share the impact strength due to the impact from the earthquake debris. By doing so, it was devised to reduce the manufacturing cost of expensive parts represented by the watertight door 8 and the like.

  The description of FIG. 5 will be given. It is the Example constructed in the ward etc. If you escape from the hospital room to the corridor, all you have to do is enter the inside of the shelter body 1 while keeping the flow line. The floor height is the same, and the course direction is very straight. After the evacuation is completed, the evacuation is completed by closing the waterproof door 9 and the watertight door 8 in this order. NHK's TV report shows that hospital staff will not evacuate caregivers with two or three people, but a structure that allows one person to evacuate.

Details of the watertight hatch 6, the watertight door 8, the waterproof door 9, and the escape door 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6- (1) and (2). The above four are basically structures having high water tightness. The door of the watertight hatch 6, the watertight door 8, the waterproof door 9, and the escape door 10 is integrated with a door cage 22 manufactured in the factory by a hinge 23. The door claw 24 is opened and closed by turning the inner handle 27 or the outer handle 32 at the center of the watertight leaf 26 left and right. The elliptical plate 28 integrated with the handle moves the skew plate 30 up and down by rotating, and the force moves the parallel plate 29 left and right. The claw 24 fixed to the parallel plate 29 moves up and down or left and right around the rotary fitting 25. The claw 24 has a V-shape and rotates around the rotary fitting 25. This operation ensures the opening and closing operation of the hatch.

The watertight hatch 26, the watertight door 8, the waterproof door 9, and the watertight leaf 26 of the escape door 10 were made of steel iron plate and had a thickness of 5 to 15 mm. The door rod 22 has a load-bearing structure that can be adapted to a water pressure of a depth of about 35 m. The external handle 32 can be easily attached and detached. It was devised not to be destroyed by rubble when the tsunami arrives. The end of the rotating shaft 34 was processed into a hexagon, and the outer handle receiving side was also hexagonal. The gear box 31 is equipped to supplement the force for rotating the inner handle 27 and the outer handle 32. The watertight packing 33 has the ability to withstand the water pressure test, and can pass the NK standard test.

The description of FIG. 7 will be given. It is advantageous in terms of securing an evacuation route to equip the shelter body 1 and the shelter dock 2 with many watertight hatches 6, watertight doors 8, waterproof doors 9, and escape doors 10. However, it cannot be denied that the parts are expensive and the parts are heavy. Although not shown in each cross-sectional view, in the case where an escape port is added at any time, a combination of a fitting steel plate 21 and a gutter 20 that secures light weight and safety has been devised.

  If production is expanded overseas, there will be more choices of evacuation methods for tsunamis due to earthquakes. In addition, it is a very effective invention for the spread of developing countries such as Asia, Africa and the Pacific island nations in a situation where sea level rise is advancing. The present invention is considered to be a construction method that saves the majority of human lives in the world after the 21st century.
