Window smasher device with active warning function and window slamming in dangerous state Active warning method for the position of the breaker

The invention relates to a window breaker device with active warning function and an active warning method for the position of the window breaker in a dangerous state, in particular, when the vehicle collides, tilts, enters water or catches fire, the passenger can be timely reminded Apparatus and method for the position of a window breaker.

The window breaker, also known as the glass hammer, the broken window hammer, and the escape hammer, can be deployed in vehicles, especially large vehicles such as buses or train cars, as emergency escape appliances. The structure of the window smasher is similar to a hammer, with a grip and a metal hammer. When the vehicle door cannot be opened, the occupant can hit the four corners of the window glass with the window smasher, then push the window away and escape. . Some window breakers have a cutter that allows the user to cut the seat belt when the seat belt cannot be unlocked for escape. The current regulations of the Ministry of Communications of Taiwan stipulate that at least three window breakers must be equipped on the bus, and the instructions for use should be marked. The placement position should be obvious and easy to use. If the bus does not have a sufficient number of window breakers, or does not indicate the location and use of the window breaker, it may be fined NT$900 and limit the correction in violation of the Road Traffic Management Penalty Regulations.

According to the foregoing description, the window breaker is a necessary facility to ensure the safety of the passenger vehicle. The relevant pre-cases relating to the window breaker are: Republic of China Patent No. M417930 "Improved Structure of Glass Breaker", which mainly improves the window The construction of the breaker makes it easy to break the glass. The case further states that additional lighting tools can be added. An alarm is added at the predetermined position, and when the smasher is removed from the installation position, the lighting and audible alarms are automatically activated to assist the glass breaking operation and the warning escape.

The Republic of China Patent No. M304342 "Strengthening Glass Breaker", which mainly improves the structure of the window breaker, making it easy to break the glass. In this case, it is mentioned that a light source is provided at the junction of the cone head and the handle, thereby achieving various functions and further increasing its practical value.

All of the above cases are equipped with lighting equipment for the passengers to smash the glass to provide illumination when they escape. However, when an emergency crisis occurs, it is not easy for passengers to immediately find the window breaker and use it because of psychological panic factors. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in the previous case.
