Description

  The present invention relates to an evacuation boat used for evacuation and relief of a care recipient in the event of a flood such as a tsunami or flood.

  In the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011, many people were killed by the tsunami. Reflecting this situation, in areas where there is a risk of being hit by a large tsunami, measures such as the construction of seawalls and evacuation towers and the designation of evacuation buildings are being promoted. However, measures that have not progressed are measures for people who are difficult to evacuate on their own, such as elderly people requiring care and persons with disabilities (hereinafter referred to as “supporters”).

  Administratively, it is obliged for municipalities to prepare a list of the persons concerned and list those who are going to help in the list, mainly for those who need assistance at home. However, even if a list is created and a supporter is determined, there is no specific evacuation method presented, and individual evacuation plans and regular evacuation drills that should be formulated for each supporter are obligatory. It is hard to say that it is fully implemented because it has not been done.

  In particular, in the case of a bedridden supporter, a car is convenient for evacuation, but evacuation by a car may be dangerous in the event of a disaster. In addition, in the bedridden state, the body becomes hard, and it is often difficult to put it on a wheelchair. For example, even if 2 to 3 supporters can respond to a person who needs assistance, if there are no hills or evacuation buildings in the vicinity, the supporters need to be safe in a short time before the tsunami hits The biggest issue is whether or not it can be carried anywhere.

  On the other hand, as for the care recipients who enter the facilities, the facility must take evacuation measures by themselves from the premise that the safety of the residents is maintained at their own responsibility. However, for example, in the case of a special nursing home for the elderly, around 30% of staff in 100-year-old care recipients (most of them are serious care recipients with a care level of 5 to 4) are placement standards, and at night There are only a few people on duty. In that case, it is almost impossible to evacuate all the care recipients with limited staff, unless the evacuation site is very close or there is time to reach the tsunami.

  In the tsunami of the Great East Japan Earthquake, in order to help the people who need support, many facilities staff and people from the fire brigade died, helping those who need help, and making sure that they don't suffer damage. Desired.

  The inventor of the present application discloses, in Patent Document 1, a boat for evacuation in the event of a flood that enables a care recipient to be evacuated smoothly and with little manpower when a flood occurs. This flood evacuation boat includes an inflatable and contractible air cylinder, a ship bottom, and a bone member that can be detachably attached to the boat body, and the bone member is at least in a contracted state of the air cylinder. It can be attached along the longitudinal direction of the boat.

  In the boat disclosed in Patent Document 1, by attaching the bone member along the longitudinal direction, it is possible to smoothly place the care recipient on the boat with a small number of hands, and to place the care recipient on the boat. The guardian can hold the bone member and move it like a stretcher. On the other hand, this boat attaches a bone member in the longitudinal direction, so it is effective when moving on a flat floor or ground, but it raises and lowers the stairs (especially for landings and spiral stairs) When the movement is performed, or when it is necessary to move along a narrow curved path, the presence of the bone member makes it impossible to perform a flexible operation, which may cause inconvenience in movement.

Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2015-013581

  The purpose of the invention of this application is to move a person who needs support to the target place from the viewpoint of helping the supporter in the event of a flood and preventing the supporter from being damaged. It is possible to provide an evacuation boat that can secure the immediate safety from the flood damage of a supporter and wait for rescue even if the movement is not in time.

  An evacuation boat according to the present invention is an evacuation boat made of rubberized cloth formed of an outer tube that forms a ridge, a bottom cloth that forms a bottom, and a floor mat that is fixed to the top of the bottom cloth. Is a substantially rectangular mat that can be laid down by one person, and the outer tube is a tube with a circular cross section formed integrally with the outer edge of the bottom cloth, and the bow and stern portions of the outer tube The evacuation boat can be used as a stretcher by providing handles on the left and right sides of the outer peripheral surface of the vehicle.

  In the above evacuation boat, a plurality of rings can be attached to the outer peripheral surfaces of the outer tube in the longitudinal direction along the longitudinal direction so that the rope can be bridged. Thereby, when the evacuation boat is floating, a person who is in the surrounding water can be caught by the rope, and it can be useful for the relief of the surrounding person.

  In addition, a seat belt can be attached to the outer peripheral surface of the outer tube of the evacuation boat so as to be tightened from the left and right to prevent a person on the floor mat from falling.

  In addition, a belt is inserted into the ring attached to the stern side of the outer tube of the general-purpose boat as described above, the carriage is fixed to the bottom, and a rope or band is attached to the handle attached to the bow portion to support it. Can be moved by a supporter alone.

  The evacuation boat according to the present invention can be used as a stretcher for moving a person who needs support to a target location. Even in the event of a flood, a supporter who is on an evacuation boat can protect his body and head from debris on the surface of the water and on the water. Easy to prevent. It is possible to secure the immediate safety of those who need assistance on evacuation boats and to wait for relief.

It is a general-view figure which shows the evacuation boat 1 in the state which extracted air. It is a general-view figure shown in the state which injected air into the evacuation boat 1 whole.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of an evacuation boat according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the evacuation boat 1 in a state where air is removed. In FIG. 1, the front end portion (the bow side) and the rear end portion (the stern side) of the evacuation boat 1 are shown bent inward. FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing a state where air is injected into the entire evacuation boat 1. In FIG. 2, in order to show a state where a person is placed on the evacuation boat 1, the figure of the person is shown by a dotted line.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the evacuation boat 1 includes an outer tube 2 that forms a heel side when air is injected, a bottom cloth 4 that forms a bottom portion of the evacuation boat 1, and an upper portion of the bottom cloth 4. The fixed floor mat 3 is integrally formed. The shape of the bottom of the evacuation boat 1 has a flat bottom because it does not require traveling performance, wave cutting properties, and the like, and has excellent stationary stability.

  The evacuation boat 1 is a kind of boat called a so-called rubber boat, but the material is preferably a rubber-drawn cloth (a sheet in which rubber is bonded to a cloth, which has both characteristics of cloth and rubber). Also in this rubberized cloth, the bottom cloth 4 is a rubberized cloth using, for example, CSM (chlorosulfonated polyethylene rubber) in consideration of durability, and the outer tube 2 is, for example, EP (ethylene propylene) in consideration of weight reduction. ) A rubberized cloth using rubber can be used. The outer tube 2 may be made of a material with a color (for example, red) that is conspicuous when the evacuation boat 1 flows out and floats on the sea.

The floor mat 3 is a substantially rectangular mat on which one person can lie down. In consideration of the efficiency when a person is placed and moved manually by hand, the length of the long side of the floor mat 3 is about 1700 mm to 2000 mm. The length of the side is preferably about 500 mm to 800 mm. The floor mat 3 is a substantially rectangular bag body capable of injecting air, and may be a mat that becomes a flat plate having a thickness of about 30 mm to 40 mm when air is injected, or may be soft such as urethane, sponge, polyethylene foam, etc. The mat may be made of a material that is elastic and floats on water. In any case, the floor mat 3 alone has a buoyancy that does not sink when a single person is placed. In the case of the air injection type floor mat 3, the outer tube 2 provided with a dedicated air injection port (not shown) has a circular cross section formed integrally with the outer edge of the bottom cloth 4. It is preferable that the tube diameter in the state which inject | poured air is 200 mm-250 mm. This tube diameter is taken into consideration so that a person cannot easily fall from the floor mat 3 into the water when the person is placed on the floor mat 3 in a state where air is injected and floated in water.

  A handle 5 is provided on each of the outer peripheral surfaces of the outer tube 2 corresponding to the bow and stern. The handle 5 is for the supporter to hold the handle 5 and use the evacuation boat 1 as a stretcher when the supporter is moved on the evacuation boat 1. In particular, when the evacuation boat 1 is moved when air is not injected into the outer tube 2, it is difficult to quickly move the supporter if there is no handle 5. Further, the handle 5 provided at the bow is used to hang a rope or a belt for towing the evacuation boat 1 when a carriage described later is attached and moved.

  A plurality of rubber substrates 6b to which a ring 6a for attaching and supporting the rope 8 is fixed are provided on the outer peripheral surface of each outer tube 2 in the longitudinal direction along the longitudinal direction. By laying the rope 8 along the longitudinal direction on these rings 6a, when the evacuation boat 1 is floating, a person in the surrounding water can be caught by the rope 8, and the evacuation boat It is possible to help not only those who need support on 1 but also the help of people around them. The stern side ring 6a is used to lock a belt for fixing the carriage to the bottom of the evacuation boat 1.

  Further, on the outer peripheral surfaces of the outer tubes 2 in the longitudinal direction, support is required so that the supporter does not easily fall down when the evacuation boat 1 is shaken with the supporter on the floor mat 3. A seat belt 7 for fastening a person's body from the left and right to fix the person to the floor mat 3 is attached at opposite positions on the left and right.

  Note that an air inlet 11 dedicated to the outer tube 2 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the outer tube 2.

  After the air is injected into the entire evacuation boat 1, the carriage can be fixed to the lower surface of the evacuation boat 1. As shown in FIG. 2, a band 9 attached to a carriage (not shown) is inserted and fixed to the stern side ring 6a, and a rope or band (not shown) is locked to the bow side handle 5; By towing the rope or band, it becomes possible for even one supporter to move the evacuation boat 1 with a supporter required.

  The carriage attached to the evacuation boat 1 may be of any type as long as it can be fixed with the band 9. For example, it is a flat carriage equipped with 4-5 casters.

  Next, a method of using the evacuation boat 1 will be described assuming a tsunami. In order to effectively use the evacuation boat 1 in the event of a flood, it is important that a certain evacuation plan and evacuation drill are carried out in advance. For example, in the event of a tsunami, the time required to reach the evacuation site in advance (assuming a supporter in wheelchairs) should be secured in advance to determine the tsunami arrival time and tsunami height from the tsunami warning. If the supporter moves, if the supporter needs to move on the evacuation boat 1 or if the supporter moves alone, etc.), if the tsunami occurs, the arrival time and the tsunami Preparation such as chronologically determining how to act from the height is necessary for effective use of the evacuation boat 1 when a tsunami occurs.

  The evacuation boat 1 is made of rubberized cloth and can be folded in a state where air is not injected. Therefore, the evacuation boat 1 can be stored compactly and can be carried alone. Therefore, normally, the evacuation boat 1 is stored in a contracted state. In order to inject air into the evacuation boat 1, it is efficient to use an electric blower. In particular, it is necessary to keep an electric blower and a generator in a facility.

  When the tsunami warning is issued, if the evacuation is required based on the arrival time of the tsunami and the height of the tsunami, the supporter is required to place a bedridden supporter who cannot evacuate with a wheelchair on the evacuation boat 1 First, air is injected only into the floor mat 3 of the evacuation boat 1. This is because it is efficient for placing the person requiring support in an appropriate position, and for reducing the impact when the person requiring support is placed on the floor mat 3. In the case of a floor mat 3 made of urethane or the like that is not an air injection type, this operation can be omitted.

  For example, when the supporter needs to be taken out of the house or moved to the second floor or higher, the supporter holds the handle 5 attached to the outer tube 2 while injecting air only into the floor mat 3. By using the evacuation boat 1 like a stretcher, a supporter can be moved.

  Next, air is injected into the outer tube 2 using an electric blower or the like. At this stage, if there is room to move to the evacuation site, use the ring 6a provided on the stern side to fix the carriage to the evacuation boat 1 and bridge the rope or band to the handle 5 provided on the bow side. Thus, the supporter can move the supporter alone to the evacuation site by towing the evacuation boat 1 with a rope or a band.

  On the other hand, when the tsunami is approaching and there is no time for the supporter to move all the supporters on the evacuation boat 1 to the evacuation site and the time limit for the supporter to evacuate is approaching, If it is left as it is, the supporter may be distressed together, so the supporter is left in the evacuation boat 1 and the supporter has to evacuate. However, even after a tsunami, the evacuation boat 1 is completely floating, and supporters can protect their bodies and heads from underwater and debris on the water. It is easy to prevent damage. In this way, even if the evacuation boat 1 is attacked by a tsunami, it is possible to ensure the immediate safety of the supporter who needs it and to wait for rescue.
