Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to an air pocket forming apparatus, and more particularly, to an air pocket forming apparatus capable of forming an air pocket in a vessel in an emergency such as a sinking or rollover of a ship.
On April 15, 2014, the "Seowol Lake" (a member of Chunhaejin Shipping), a passenger ship that departed from the Incheon Coastal Passenger Terminal and headed for Jeju, was sunk in the sea near the southern coast of Jeollanamdo. Of the 476 passengers, only 172 were rescued and more than 300 deaths and disappearances occurred. Especially, 'Seowall' had 324 high school students who went on a school trip to Jeju Island, so the whole nation felt more shock and sadness. At the time of the accident, part of the 'Seewal' floated on the sea, but due to problems such as the birds of the accident site, flow rate, water pressure and equipment, etc., the rescue was not carried out quickly and caused many human casualties .
As described above, most of the vessels are provided with life vests or lifeboats for rescue of persons in case of a ship sinking or overturning without considering the above-mentioned problems.
However, in case of a ship accident, if the ship is tilted significantly before the sinking or overturning like the "Sewol Ho" accident, the escape becomes difficult due to the slope, If you do not cope effectively, you will have a lot of human casualties like the previous year's incident.
Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new liferaft for passengers who have failed to escape when a vessel accidentally sinks or sinks. However, there is a possibility that the structure of the ship may be affected by various factors such as algae, flow velocity, water pressure and equipment at the accident site And there is a problem that the sinking ship will cause oxygen poisoning because the oxygen partial pressure of the air injected from the outside is increased due to the water pressure.
In addition, there has been an effort to form air pockets in a cabin by discharging air from a tank in which a compressed air is stored in a vessel, but the gas generated by the adiabatic expansion rapidly lowers the temperature of the surrounding air , The passengers can cause hypothermia and compress air. However, in order to provide enough air pockets in the cabin, the volume of the cabinets must occupy most of the cabin.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an air conditioner for a passenger who is caught in an airtight cabin without escaping in the event of an emergency such as sinking or overturning, And to provide a pocket forming apparatus.
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention relates to an air pocket forming apparatus (100) for providing air pockets in a cabin,

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The objectives, specific advantages and novel features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. It should be noted that, in the present specification, the reference numerals are added to the constituent elements of the drawings, and the same constituent elements are assigned the same number as much as possible even if they are displayed on different drawings. Also, the terms "first "," second ", and the like are used to distinguish one element from another element, and the element is not limited thereto. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the following description of the present invention, detailed description of related arts which may unnecessarily obscure the gist of the present invention will be omitted.
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to the cross-sectional view of the air pocket forming apparatus according to Figs. 1 and 2, when a ship is sunken or overturned, the air pressure varies depending on the depth at which the ship sinks. The oxygen partial pressure and the oxygen partial pressure in the air in the ship after the sinking become different from each other. Accordingly, in the present invention, in consideration of the depth at which the ship is sunk, a
In addition, unlike the prior art in which compressed air is introduced to form air pockets in emergency situations, since a large amount of air is produced from solid and liquid reagents at optimum partial pressures, the volume of the device Can be minimized. Furthermore, it is possible to further increase the air pocket formation and holding time compared to the compressed air.

In other words, when a vessel containing oxygen or air in the form of gas is used, there is a problem that air pockets can be formed and maintained only by the volume of the accommodated gas. However, the present invention solves this problem by using liquid and solid reagents.
In addition, there is a problem that the temperature of the ambient air is rapidly lowered due to the adiabatic expansion when the air pocket is formed by discharging the compressed air, the gas in the form of gas, or the oxygen in the form of gaseous oxygen into the cabin, The

Since the second reactor 120 having such a configuration accommodates a solid reagent, if a ship accident such as sinking or overturning of the vessel occurs, it is possible to generate a large amount of nitrogen in the form of gas from the reagent. The size of the device can be minimized compared to the size of the air pocket. In other words, when using a vessel containing air in the form of gas, there is a problem that air pockets can be formed and maintained only by the volume of the accommodated gas, but the present invention solves this problem by using a solid form reagent.
In addition, since nitrogen is generated in the second reactor 120 and is supplied in consideration of the water pressure together with oxygen in the
That is, when a vessel containing compressed air or gas in the form of gas is used, the oxygen partial pressure in the air is increased according to the water pressure, so that if it sinks to a deep water depth, secondary damage such as oxygen poisoning may occur. Since oxygen and nitrogen are respectively generated from the

In addition, the apparatus for forming an air pocket according to the present invention generates oxygen and nitrogen through a chemical reaction from a solid or liquid type reagent instead of a compressed air storing method, So that secondary damage due to excessive oxygen in- jection can be prevented.
The air pocket forming apparatus according to the present invention is advantageous in that the volume and amount of the air pockets that can be formed in relation to the volume of the air pocket are considerably larger than those of the apparatus for storing compressed air or compressed oxygen and injecting the compressed air or compressed oxygen into the cabin . For example, an air pocket forming apparatus according to the present invention having a radius of 0.34 m and a height of 1.4 m (container volume less than 0.5 m 3 ) at a depth of 15 m can form an air pocket of about 5.74 m 3 , wherein the required hydrogen peroxide is 20 -30 kg of sodium azide, and 15-25 kg of sodium azide.
