In addition, terms to be described later are terms defined in consideration of functions in an embodiment of the disclosed content, which may vary according to an operator's intention or custom. Therefore, the definition should be made based on the contents throughout this specification.

1 to 6 show one embodiment according to the disclosed information. 1 is a perspective view, FIGS. 2 and 3 are operation diagrams, and FIGS. 4 to 6 are use state diagrams.

Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, components of the life-saving tube combined lifting equipment 1 according to an embodiment of the disclosure and their connection relationships will be described in detail.

First, a buoyancy mat 10 is provided. The buoyancy mat 10 is inflated into a flat plate shape depending on whether gas is injected or not, and is used to lift a drowning person while floating on the water, and at the same time serves to mount components to be described later in a usable manner.

This buoyancy mat 10 is manufactured in the form of a double space paper coated with TPU, which is a thermoplastic polyurethane material, and compressed gas can be quickly injected during use through a gas inlet 14 formed on one side. Such a buoyancy mat 10 does not take up a lot of space in a ship because it can be stored in close contact with the ladder member 20 in a state in which gas is not filled in normal times when a structure is not needed. Therefore, it is easy to store, transport, and use, and it is easy to secure a movement line in a ship.

In addition, the above-described buoyancy mat 10 may be floated on water with its upper surface facing the sky or, conversely, may be floated on water with its lower surface facing the sky, depending on the purpose of use. That is, in the case of a conscious drowned person, it is possible to float on the water with the upper surface facing the sky so that the drowned person can be quickly lifted onto the ship through a ladder to be described later. In addition, in the case of an unconscious drowned person or dead person, on the contrary, after floating on the water with the lower surface facing the sky, a ladder to be described later can be pulled up while touching the edge of the ship so that the drowned person or dead person can be quickly lifted.

A net 11 may be further installed on the lower surface of the buoyancy mat 10 to fix the body of a drowning person on the lower surface of the buoyancy mat 10 . The mesh 11 is installed so that its upper side (the other end side of the buoyancy mat) and both edges are fixed to the buoyancy mat 12 side and the lower side is open. This is used when lifting the above-mentioned unconscious drowned person or dead person. Usually, the body is lifted after tying the body with a rope. Since it is not easy, there is a problem that several rescuers must be put in and it takes a long time to lift. However, when the net 11 is provided, one rescuer can quickly and easily fix the position of an unconscious drowned person or dead person by putting the upper body part of the body inside the buoyancy mat 10 quickly and easily. Salvation is possible.

In addition to this, a strap 12 is further provided on the side of the net 11 to help stably fix the body part fixed on the lower surface of the buoyancy mat 10 by the net 11 on the buoyancy mat 10. can The strap 12 is connected to the lower side of the open net 11 and is formed so that it serves to tighten the lower side of the open net 11 tightly when pulled. That is, even if the body is fixed to the buoyancy mat 10 by the net 11, in the case of an unconscious drowned person or a deceased person, the center of gravity of the body is tilted to one side during the lifting process, and there is a possibility of getting out of the net 11 do. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the body from accidentally coming out of the net 11 by pulling the strap 12 with a predetermined force while the upper body part of the body is fixed by the net 11 .

On both sides of the lower surface of the aforementioned buoyancy mat 10, anti-separation bumps 13 may be formed to protrude. Similar to the strap 12 described above, the anti-separation bump 13 serves to prevent the drowned person's body from leaning to one side during the lifting process. It is preferable that the release prevention bump 13 is manufactured in a form that expands together when the buoyancy mat 10 expands, but may be provided by being padded with a soft material such as styrofoam or sponge.

On the other hand, a ladder member 20 is provided at one end side of the upper surface of the aforementioned buoyancy mat 10. This ladder member 20 serves to enable a drowning person to be quickly lifted onto the ship according to the method of using the buoyancy mat 10.

That is, as described above, when the upper surface of the buoyancy mat 10 is floated on the water toward the sky, the ladder member 20 is used in a state where it is inclined from the upper surface of the buoyancy mat 10 to the edge of the ship. At this time, the conscious drowning person rescued by the buoyancy mat 10 can step on the ladder member 20 by himself and climb up to evacuate onto the ship.

And when the lower surface of the buoyancy mat 10 is floated on the water toward the sky, the ladder member 20 is used in a state supported on the edge of the ship after being in close contact with the upper surface of the buoyancy mat 10, at this time The rescuer on the ship pulls the other end of the ladder member 20 and is rescued with the buoyancy mat 10, so that the body is in close contact with the net 11, the strap 12, and the departure prevention jaw 13. A drowning person or a dead person who is not present can be lifted in a sliding manner together with the buoyancy mat 10 .

A fixed rope 30 is provided at the other end side of the ladder member 20 described above. The fixing rope 30 is selectively fixed to the structure of the ship, such as a hotline column, and serves to prevent the buoyancy mat 10 and the ladder member 20 from being separated from the ship during the lifting process. This fixing rope 30 is made of a tough synthetic resin fabric material, and its length can be adjusted, so it is firmly fixed by pulling one side tightly after hanging it on a hot line column.

Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6, an overall method of using the life-saving tube combined lifting equipment 1 according to an embodiment of the disclosure will be described in detail.

As shown in FIG. 4 , when a conscious drowning person is to be lifted, compressed gas is first injected into the buoyancy mat 10 to inflate the buoyancy mat 10 . Then, the buoyancy mat 10 is floated on the water so that its upper surface faces the sky. Then, the ladder member 20 is rotated to be mounted obliquely on the edge of the ship, and then the fixing rope 30 is firmly fixed to the pole. Then, the drowned person is rescued on the buoyancy mat 10, and the rescued drowned person steps on the ladder member 20 and quickly evacuates onto the ship.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5 , in the case of lifting an unconscious drowned person or a dead person, compressed gas is first injected into the buoyancy mat 10 to inflate the buoyancy mat 10 . Then, the buoyancy mat 10 is floated on the water so that its lower surface faces the sky. Then, after moving the unconscious drowned person or dead person onto the mat member, the upper part of the body is put into it using the net 11 and fixed therein. Then, hold the other end of the ladder member 20 in close contact with the upper surface of the buoyancy mat 10 and move the buoyancy tube in a sliding manner while the ladder member 20 is in contact with the edge of the ship. At this time, the ship The strap 12 is pulled with a predetermined force from above, and the body in the net 11 is quickly lifted onto the ship while preventing it from coming out arbitrarily.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6, when rapid evacuation is required from a ship due to a collision or fire, compressed gas is first injected into the buoyancy mat 10 to inflate the buoyancy mat 10. Then, the buoyancy mat 10 is floated on the water, and at this time, the lower surface faces the sky. Then, it quickly evacuates onto the buoyancy mat 10. At this time, the ladder member 20 prevents the buoyancy mat 10 from turning over as it serves as a weight in the water. Although not shown in the disclosure, an emergency pocket is further formed on one side of the buoyancy mat 10, and a rescue signal receiver capable of sending a rescue signal, a flashlight, drinking water, etc. may be accommodated and stored in the emergency pocket.

According to the life-saving tube combined lifting equipment as described above, the buoyancy mat is not inflated at normal times and can be stored in a folded state, so it is easy to store and use as it does not occupy a large area, and gas is injected into the buoyancy mat during rescue In this state, the rescuer is lifted by floating on the sea, but a ladder member connected to the ship is provided, and this ladder member is fixed to one side of the ship by a fixed rope, enabling quick and safe lifting with a small number of people. It can also be used as a life-saving tube for ship escape in the event of an accident such as
