US 2011/0225695 A1 · LIFE-SAVING DEVICE

Abstract

A life-saving device has a garment and at least one airbag assembly. The at least one airbag assembly is mounted on the garment and each one of the at least one airbag assembly has a gas cylinder, a gas tube, multiple airbag layers and at least one connecting tube. The gas cylinder is attached to the garment. The gas tube is connected between the gas cylinder and the airbag layers. Each one of the at least one connecting tube is connected between two adjacent airbag layers. A user wearing the life-saving device can actuate the gas cylinder when falling from high altitudes to inflate the airbag layers via the gas tube and the at least one connecting tube. The inflated airbag layers will provide an air resistance to slow down the falling speed. Therefore, the user can safely descend to the ground.
