Description
Rettungsgerät für eine im Wasser treibende Person Rescue device for a person floating in the water
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rettungsgerät für eine im Wasser treibende Person, bestehend aus zwei an eine Bergeleine angekoppelten Schlaufen, einer Schwimm- und einer Sinkschlaufe, von denen die Schwimmschlaufe ausreichend Umfang für den Oberkörper einer von der Schwimmschlaufe umgebenen Person und die Sinkschlaufe ausreichend Umfang für das Unterfassen des Oberschenkel- oder Kniebereiches dieser von der Schwimmschlaufe umgebenen Person aufweist, wobei die Schlaufen langgestreckte Körper sind, die an ihren Enden miteinander und mit der Bergeleine verbunden sind.The invention relates to a rescue device for a person floating in the water, consisting of two loops coupled to a mountain line, a swimming and a sinking loop, of which the swimming loop is sufficient for the upper body of a person surrounded by the swimming loop and the sinking loop is sufficient for that Has the thigh or knee area of this person surrounded by the swimming loop, the loops being elongated bodies which are connected at their ends to one another and to the recovery line.
Ein solches Rettungsgerät ist von Herrn Prof. M.Schwindt entwickelt worden und aus der DE 100 37 868.4 bekannt geworden. Dieses Rettungsgerät hat sich im praktischen Einsatz hervorragend bewährt. Es wurde für die Rettung mit Hilfe eines in das Wasser gesprungenen Helfers konzipiert, der zu der zu bergenden Person schwimmt und der der zu bergenden Person die beiden Schlaufen umlegt, bevor diese mit Hilfe der Bergeleine an das rettende Schiff herangezogen wird. Die Schwimmschlaufe ist so konzipiert und dimensioniert, daß sie ohne die zu bergende Person auf dem Wasser schwimmt und dadurch für den Helfer leicht sichtbar und faßbar ist. Dieses Rettungsgerät nimmt bei der Aufbewahrung an Bord wenig Raum ein, ist außerordent
lich schnell zum Einsatz zu bringen, leicht einer hilflos im Wasser treibenden Person zuzuwerfen und leicht von dieser umzulegen. Der besondere Vorteil besteht darin, daß die zu bergende Person beim Herausheben aus dem Wasser in eine nahezu horizontale Lage gelangt, in der die Schwimmschlaufe den Oberkörper und die Sinkschlaufe die Oberschenkel oder Knie unterfaßt. Diese Lage der zu rettenden Person ist während des Heraushebens aus dem Wasser besonders kreislaufschonend und vermeidet dadurch für die zu bergende Person gesundheitsschädigende und manchmal sogar tötliche Folgen, wie sie des öfteren aufgetreten sind, wenn eine Person mit Hilfe einer um den Oberkörper geschlungenen Leine vertikal aus dem Wasser gehievt wurde.Such a rescue device has been developed by Prof. M.Schwindt and has become known from DE 100 37 868.4. This rescue device has proven itself extremely well in practical use. It was designed for rescue with the help of a helper who jumped into the water, who swims to the person to be rescued and who pulls the two loops of the person to be rescued before pulling it to the rescue ship with the help of the rescue line. The swimming strap is designed and dimensioned so that it floats on the water without the person to be rescued, making it easy for the helper to see and grasp. This rescue device takes up little space when stored on board and is extraordinary can be deployed quickly, easily thrown to a helpless person floating in the water and easily killed by him. The particular advantage is that the person to be rescued, when lifted out of the water, comes into an almost horizontal position, in which the swimming loop grips the upper body and the sinking loop grips the thighs or knees. This position of the person to be rescued is particularly gentle on the circulatory system when it is lifted out of the water and thus avoids health-endangering and sometimes even fatal consequences for the person to be rescued, as have often occurred if a person stretches vertically with the help of a line wrapped around the upper body was heaved out of the water.
Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, dieses Rettungsgerät so weiterzuentwickeln, daß es auch ohne Mithilfe eines in das Wasser gesprungenen Retters einsetzbar ist und von der zu bergenden Person ohne Instruktion in richtiger Weise anlegbar und benutzbar ist.The aim of the present invention is to further develop this rescue device in such a way that it can also be used without the aid of a rescuer who has jumped into the water and can be put on and used correctly by the person to be rescued without instructions.
Die Erfindung besteht darin, daß die Schwimmschlaufe in ihrem Durchmesser so stark dimensioniert ist, daß sie die zu rettende Person auf dem Wasser zu tragen vermag, daß die Schwimmschlaufe die Form eines U aufweist, daß die Bergeleine an mindestens das eine der beiden freien Enden der Schenkel der U-- förmigen Schwimmschlaufe angekoppelt ist, daß die Schwimmschlaufe eine Elastizität aufweist, die ein Zusammenbiegen ihrer Enden zuläßt und daß mindestens die eine der beiden Schlaufen im Bereich mindestens eines ihrer beiden offenen Enden mit Handgriffen versehen ist.The invention is that the swimming loop is dimensioned so strong in diameter that it can carry the person to be rescued on the water, that the swimming loop has the shape of a U, that the recovery line on at least one of the two free ends of the Leg of the U-shaped swimming loop is coupled that the swimming loop has an elasticity that allows its ends to bend together and that at least one of the two loops is provided with handles in the region of at least one of its two open ends.
Hierdurch ist die Schwimmschlaufe mit den Eigenschaften eines Rettungsringes versehen worden, ohne dessen Ringform im Ruhezustand zu haben. Sie hat eine Form erhalten, die auch von einem im Wasser treibenden Laien als eine eine Person tragen-
de Schwimmhilfe erkannt wird und die genutzt und um den Körper herumgelegt werden kann. In die Schwimmschlaufe dieses Rettungsgerätes kann sich die zu rettende Person hineintreiben lassen oder hineinschwimmen und sich dann an die Schwimmschlaufe oder ihre Handgriffe anklammern. Hierzu ist kein Helfer notwendig. Sodann kann von Bord des rettenden Schiffes die Bergeleine eingeholt werden und die zu bergende Person an die Bordwand des Schiffes gezogen werden. Hierbei wird die zu bergende Person immer in die Schwimmschlaufe hereingezogen, sie fällt nicht aus dem offenen Ende der Schwimmschlaufe heraus. Spätestens an der Bordwand fällt die Sinkschlaufe von selbst ohne jegliches Hinzutun eines Retters oder der zu bergenden Person unter das Gesäß der zu rettenden Person, so daß diese in einer horizontalen liegenden Stellung aus dem Wasser gehoben werden kann.As a result, the swimming loop has been given the properties of a lifebuoy without having its ring shape in the idle state. It has received a shape that is carried by a lay person floating in the water as a person- de swimming aid is recognized and can be used and placed around the body. The person to be rescued can float or swim into the swimming loop of this rescue device and then cling to the swimming loop or its handles. No helper is necessary for this. The recovery line can then be pulled in from the rescue ship and the person to be recovered can be pulled to the ship's side wall. The person to be rescued is always pulled into the swimming loop, it does not fall out of the open end of the swimming loop. At the latest on the side wall, the sinking loop falls by itself under the buttocks of the person to be rescued, without any addition of a rescuer or the person to be rescued, so that the person in a horizontal lying position can be lifted out of the water.
Dabei sollte die Schwimmschlaufe ausreichend Auftrieb für eine von der Schwimmschlaufe umgebene zu bergende Person und die Sinkschlaufe ausreichend Umfang für das Unterfassen des Oberschenkel- oder Kniebereiches dieser von der Schwimmschlaufe umgebenen Person aufweisen.The swimming loop should have sufficient buoyancy for a person to be rescued from the swimming loop and the sinking loop should have sufficient circumference for the thigh or knee area of this person surrounded by the swimming loop.
Erfolgt dieses Herausheben manuell von zwei an Bord befindlichen Helfern, leisten die Handgriffe an der Schwimm- und/oder Sinkschlaufe besonders gute Dienste, erlauben sie doch ein Herausheben der zu bergenden Person ohne diese zu berühren.If this lifting is done manually by two helpers on board, the handles on the swimming and / or sinking loop perform particularly well, as they allow the person to be rescued to be lifted out without touching them.
Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn jedes der beiden Enden einer Schlaufe mit zwei Handgriffen versehen ist, einem nach außen und einem nach innen gerichteten Handgriff. An die nach innen gerichteten Handgriffe kann sich die zu bergende Person anklammern und auch angeklammert verbleiben, wenn die sie aus dem Wasser hebenden Helfer an den nach außen gerichteten Handgriffen anpacken.
Zweckmäßig ist es, wenn die Handgriffe aus einem weichen Material, vorzugsweise einer Textilie oder einem weichen Kunststoff gefertigt sind, um Verletzungen zu vermeiden.It is advantageous if each of the two ends of a loop is provided with two handles, an outward and an inward handle. The person to be rescued can cling to the inward-facing handles and can also remain clipped when the helpers lifting them out of the water grab hold of the outward-facing handles. It is expedient if the handles are made of a soft material, preferably a textile or a soft plastic, in order to avoid injuries.
Aus Gründen einer leichten Herstellung und eines günstigen An- packens ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Handgriffe die Form einer Schlaufe aufweisen.For reasons of easy manufacture and inexpensive handling, it is advantageous if the handles have the shape of a loop.
Einfach läßt sich dieses Rettungsgerät erstellen, wenn die Handgriffe an den Bezugsstoff des in der Schwimmschlaufe befindlichen Schwimmkörpers angenäht sind.This rescue device can be easily created if the handles are sewn onto the cover fabric of the floating body in the swimming loop.
Wenn die Bordwand an ihrem oberen Ende mit einem nach außen überstehenden Rand versehen ist, kann das Hereinheben der zu bergenden Person mit Schwierigkeiten verbunden sein, wenn sich das Rettungsgerät mit seinem oberen Teil hinter diesem Rand verhakt. Dem kann abgeholfen werden, wenn die Enden der Sink- und/oder Schwimmschlaufe mit einem Abweiser in Form eines quer mit seiner Achse zur Achse der Schwimm- und oder Sinkschlaufe angebrachten runden Körpers versehen sind.If the drop side is provided with an outwardly projecting edge at its upper end, it can be difficult to lift in the person to be rescued if the rescue device hooks with its upper part behind this edge. This can be remedied if the ends of the sinking and / or swimming loop are provided with a deflector in the form of a round body which is attached transversely with its axis to the axis of the swimming and or sinking loop.
Die in diesem Rettungsgerät befindliche Person kann in ihrer Lage in der U-förmigen Schwimmschlaufe zusätzlich gesichert werden, wenn an der Innenseite der Schwimmschlaufe ein weiterer zusätzlicher, einhakbarer Schwimmkörper angebracht ist, mit 'dem sich die Schwimmschlaufe zu einem den Oberkörper der zu bergenden Person umschließenden Ring zusammenknüpfen läßt.The person in this rescue device can be additionally secured in its position in the U-shaped swimming loop if another additional, hookable floating body is attached to the inside of the swimming loop, with which the swimming loop encloses the upper body of the person to be rescued The ring can be knotted together.
Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der zusätzliche Schwimmkörper auf seiner einen Seite fest an der Schwimmschlaufe befestigt ist und auf seiner anderen Seite einen Haken, vorzugsweise einen Karabinerhaken trägt, welcher in einen am Schwimmkörper be-
festigten Ring einhakbar ist.It is advantageous here if the additional floating body is firmly attached to the swimming loop on one side and has a hook, preferably a snap hook, on its other side, which hooks into one of the floating bodies. fixed ring can be hooked.
Bei diesem Rettungsgerät kann die Bergeleine zweckmäßiger- weise so angekoppelt werden, daß die Schwimm- und/oder Sinkschlaufe an ihren Enden mit je einem Ring versehen ist, von denen durch den einen die Bergeleine hindurchgezogen und dann an dem anderen mit ihrem Ende befestigt ist.In this rescue device, the recovery line can expediently be coupled in such a way that the swimming and / or sinking loop is provided with a ring at each end, of which the recovery line is pulled through one and then attached to the other with its end.
Weiterhin kann die Handhabbarkeit dieses Rettungsgerätes dadurch erleichtert werden, daß an der Bergeleine kurz vor ihrem der Schwimmschlaufe zugewandten Ende ebenfalls mindestens ein Handgriff vorgesehen ist.Furthermore, the manageability of this rescue device can be facilitated in that at least one handle is likewise provided on the recovery line shortly before its end facing the swimming loop.
Das Rettungsgerät wird leichter benutzbar, wenn die Schwimmschlaufe und die Sinkschlaufe getrennte Bauteile sind, die erst zusammengekoppelt werden, wenn sich die zu bergende Person in der Schwimmschlaufe (ohne Sinkschlaufe) neben der Bordwand befindet.The rescue device is easier to use if the swimming loop and the sinking loop are separate components that are only coupled together when the person to be rescued is in the swimming loop (without the sinking loop) next to the side wall.
Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Sinkschlaufe an ihren Enden mit je einem Karabinerhaken ausgestattet ist, welche an Ringe an der Schwimmschlaufe ankoppelbar sind.It is advantageous here if the sinking loop is equipped at its ends with a snap hook, which can be coupled to rings on the swimming loop.
