Definitions

  • the invention is SAFE (SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP) which is intended to prevent suicide attempts or accidents that may result in death by free fall from high structures such as bridges, viaducts and buildings that allow passage through obstacles such as rivers and elevations and can be used as a high security element to prevent falling during maintenance of said structures, bridges, viaducts automatically or manually.
  • SAFE SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP
  • the object of the invention is about the free fall prevention system SAFE (SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP) which detects suicidal actions or accidents automatically that may lead to a free fall of a person from high structures such as bridges, viaducts and buildings and after that prevents the fall of the individual by moving to the location of said falling individual, and which after that prevents the individual from attempting a new suicide attempt by carrying the individual to a safe place until the safety personnel arrives.
  • SAFE SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP
  • WO2016137058 mentions a suicide-inhibiting mechanism, although said mechanism can only be used in bridges and viaducts, it is based on the guardrails in these constructions and speaks of a fixed mechanism that operates entirely said guardrails. There is a constant system implementation that makes it difficult to climb over the railing.
  • the aim of the invention is to put out a SAFE (SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP) suicide or accidental fall prevention system that prevents falling actions in structures with high altitude such as bridges, buildings or viaducts due to accidents (eg slipping, railing, etc.) or suicide attempts, automatically or manually by means of its moving structure and afterwards carries the person to a safe point after the prevention of the fall, and which is used as a high security element against falling during maintenance and repair work in mentioned bridges, buildings or viaducts.
  • SAFE SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a SAFE (SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP) suicide or accidental fall prevention system that prevents another suicide attempt or fall of the mentioned individual until the related safety forces arrive at the area.
  • SAFE SUICIDE AND FALL ESTOP
  • Another object of the invention is to establish a minimum impact on the dynamics of the building, while removing the human factor in the middle of the operation of the system. Another aim of the invention is to demonstrate that application and operating costs are minimized.
  • FIG. 1 shows the base parts of the inventive system.
  • FIG. 2 shows a bridge application example in which the system of the invention is applied.
  • FIG. 3 shows the closure mechanism and the representation of the rail system.
  • FIG. 4 shows the parts of the automation system.
  • SAFE system ( 1 ) which ensures the safety of the construction phase, the prevention of suicide attempts and the control of the attempted individual by moving him/her to a safe place.
  • the SAFE system ( 1 ) seeks to prevent potential falls in these areas by moving to the areas containing risk, where safety of buildings such as buildings, bridges or viaducts is desired to be provided and placed in areas where there is a possibility of falling or suicide.
  • the inventive SAFE system ( 1 ) comprises: a rail system ( 11 ) applied to the entire side or bottom surface of a building, bridge or viaduct in parallel with the floor of the building for which safety is to be sought; a capture mechanism ( 12 ) located on the rail system ( 11 ); an automation system ( 13 ) which detects the movement in the follow-up zone and makes said capture mechanism ( 12 ) come to a suitable position on the rail system ( 11 ).
  • it comprises a remote control ( 14 ) which, if desired, consciously actuates the capture mechanism ( 12 ) on the rail system ( 11 ) to bring it to the desired position.
  • the rail system ( 11 ) allows the capture mechanism ( 12 ) to travel to the coordinate point received via the remote control ( 14 ) and/or via the automation system ( 13 ).
  • the technical characteristic of the rail system ( 11 ) is applied in closed circuit form depending on the application area, depending on the length of the structure to be applied.
  • the rail system ( 11 ) can be applied in a greater number of ways, such as can be implemented in one go or more than one along the side or bottom surface of the structure, to provide the transportation as soon as possible at the coordinates determined, by taking the length of the structure into account.
  • two rail systems ( 11 ) can be positioned to start from the right and left by dividing the bridge length into two identical parts, or as a single rail system ( 11 ) having two capture mechanisms ( 12 ) can be applied.
  • the cabinet ( 15 ) is formed.
  • the capture mechanism ( 12 ) on the rail system ( 11 ) is delivered to the specified coordinate as soon as possible.
  • the rail system ( 11 ) can be applied to the entire side surface of the structure as a plural or as a singular manner, depending on the measures of the structure to be applied, and the number of the c capture mechanisms ( 12 ) to be mounted is also calculated depending on these measurements.
  • the capture mechanism ( 12 ) shown in FIG. 3 includes a net, a mechanism that opens and closes the net, and a servo-motor that allows movement on the rail system ( 11 ). In its closed state, it will prevent the individual from coming out.
  • the cabinet ( 15 ) shown in FIG. 1 ensures that the capture mechanism ( 12 ) is charged when idle, but also protects it from adverse environmental conditions such as bad weather conditions.
  • the cabinet ( 15 ) also exhibits a location feature for the security unit to receive the individual secured by the capture mechanism ( 12 ) at will.
  • the automation system ( 13 ) represented by the elements integrated in FIG. 4 is a structure that controls the areas of danger that are integrated with the sensor ( 13 . 2 ) and/or camera ( 13 . 1 ) systems. It is also integrated with the remote control( 14 ).
  • each capture mechanism ( 12 ) is defined in certain areas in the automation system ( 13 ).
  • the automation system ( 13 ) delivers the capture mechanism ( 12 ) closest to the identified hazard area as soon as possible.
  • Detection systems with sensor ( 13 . 2 ) and/or camera ( 13 . 1 ) are placed in calculations for all hazardous areas on the structure to which the system is to be applied and integrated with the entire capture mechanism/s ( 12 ) determined on the rail system ( 11 ) and automation system ( 13 ).
  • the capture mechanism/s ( 12 ) are located at a distance to allow movement to take place prior to the arrival time.
  • the capture mechanism ( 12 ) can be brought to the desired coordinate by means of the remote control ( 14 ) apart the automation system ( 13 ) for extreme safety reasons or during building modification.
  • the capture mechanism ( 12 ) is opened at the place where the positioning takes place, thereby preventing the falling action and closing and moving the individual to the cabinet ( 15 ) or to a safe point on the rail system ( 11 ).
  • the capture mechanism ( 12 ) is formed of a high-strength and at the same time a web from a flexible material, taking into account that if the inner lid is rigid and closed, it may cause injury if the person falls into the inner lid at the speed set by the drop.
  • This state prevents the person who falls or jumps from being minimally injured and prevents further suicide attempts by imprisoning the captured person for the purpose of preventing him/her from harming himself/herself again as it is foreseen to have committed suicide.
