Abstract
The present invention relates to a rescue assembly including a vehicle that rides upon a track operated by a network of pistons set in a left to right array and connected by slanted bridges for control of said capsule. The vehicle, track, and piston network is all contained within a tube and is continuous vertically the entire height of a tall building or structure. The capsule is powered by an independent power source with regards to the building's or structure's power supply and is controlled via straight aerodynamic controls.
Claims12
An Emergency Rescue Vehicle to remove people from multistory structures in the event of a power failure or emergency event comprising:
- Two parallel rails attached vertically on the side of a multistory structure and extending the height of the multistory structure;
- a series of hydraulically operated pistons attached to the multistory structure and placed between said parallel rails in a continuous alternating zig zag pattern and extending the length of said parallel rails;
- a series of hydraulic fluid storage containers attached to the multistory structure and placed between said parallel rails and in hydraulic connection with said series of pistons;
- a capsule
- said capsule having a capsule door for allowing people to enter said capsule;
- said capsule rotatably attached to one of said parallel rails and removably attachable to the second of said parallel rails;
- one or more capsule storage openings in said multistory structure and adjacent to said parallel rails such that said capsule can be removably attached from said second parallel rail and rotated around said first parallel rail into said capsule storage area for loading of people into said capsule through said capsule door in an emergency;
- said capsule having a driveshaft located on the side of the capsule facing the multistory structure when said capsule is attached to said parallel rails with said driveshaft being capable of being removably attached to said series of pistons when said capsule is rotated out of said capsule storage opening and attached to said second parallel rail;
- said drive shaft movably attached to said capsule and capable of rotating around an axis point and also sliding back and forth horizontally the width of said zig zag patern of said pistons such that when said driveshaft is attached to said series of pistons and rotates and moves back and forth said capsule can be lowered or raised by contraction or expansion of said series of pistons being emptied or filled with hydraulic fluid from said fluid storage containers;
- a semi cylindrical tube attached vertically to said multistory structure such that said semi cylindrical tube extends out from said building and encloses said parallel rails, said capsule, and said capsule storage openings;
- and,
- a tube door in said semi cylindrical tube for allowing exit of people once said capsule has moved to a safe location and people have exited through said capsule door into said semicircular tube.
