The present invention relates to the field of technical equipment for the self-rescue of automobiles trapped in pits, and in particular to an escape device for self-rescue in the case of an auto tyre being trapped in a pit.
The invention of the automobile has brought great convenience to people's travel. As the automobile industry is constantly developing, people not only require the safety and comfort of driving automobiles, and also require the multifunctionality of automobiles. However, when an automobile is running in the desert or on a muddy unpaved road, due to the influence of factors such as a weather condition or a geographic environment, the tyres of the automobile will often be trapped in sand pits or earth pits, and at this moment, the automobile cannot run away and is trapped. In winter, especially the snowy climate of the north, snow is accumulated on roads, the ground is wet and slippery, many automobiles will encounter the wet and slippery problems of the roads, and accidents will take place frequently.
In the long-term running process of automobiles, phenomena, such as tyre skidding, trapping in pits and sinking, may often occur, and even cause accidents in severe cases, and it is even more so in the cases of rainy days in summer, ice and snow in winter and harsh road surface conditions. Therefore, auto tyre skidding prevention, sinking prevention, trapping prevention and sinking self-rescue escape measures are of great significance in ensuring the normal and safe running of vehicles.
At present, there have been a variety of tyre skidding prevention devices in the market, and anti-skid chains which are made of iron chains, gum chains or rubber chains are most common. Anti-skid chains mounted on tyres can generate great pressure on the ground and increase frictional force with the road surface, playing an anti-skid role, and thereby the running safety performance of vehicles is improved. The existing defects are difficulty in dismounting and mounting, heavy weight, tyre wear and severe pavement destruction, and the running safety of automobiles will be affected to a certain degree. Especially in the northern and northwestern regions of China, as the ice and snow period in winter is long, tens of thousands of various traffic accidents of vehicles caused by wet and slippery road surfaces, trapping in pits and sinking have occurred every year. However, the anti-skid effect of anti-skid chains in the prior art is not ideal in practical application; and sinking or trapping self-rescue measures are imperfect. Moreover, anti-skid chains and self-rescue equipment are complex to mount and dismount, and a great deal of time and labor are consumed.

4. the internal tube 34 is then put into the sleeve 314, the height of the jacking head 35 at the end of the internal tube 34 is adjusted, so that the jacking head 35 can be placed on the snow ground or the pit ground, and after the spring and the locking pin on the internal tube 34 and the sleeve 314 are arranged, the automobile can be started; as the auto tyre 50 rotates, the jacking head 35 of the jacking device 30 rotates and abuts against the snow ground or the pit ground, so that the tyre 50 can be “jacked” effectively, consequently, the auto tyre 50 conveniently, quickly and safely gets out of the pit, and finally, the escape device of the present invention is then disassembled and restored quickly.
In addition, according to the trapped condition of the automobile, the escape device of the present invention can be used along with the anti-skid chain plate device by the foregoing method, thus, skidding on the wet and slippery road surface can be prevented more effectively, and the safety of driving is increased.
If needed further, the driving disk 40 can cooperate with an external device, and can be connected effectively to other tool and equipment. According to an actual vehicle model, a matching driving disk 40 is chosen and assembled to the holes of the central positioning disk 10, screws are used for fixed connection, so that the central positioning disk 10 is locked in the screw holes of the driving disk 40, and thereby assembly is completed. For example, after the driving disk 40 is connected to a “winch”, the wheel can be used as a “winch device”, and the automobile can assist itself or another vehicle to get out; after the driving disk 40 is connected to an “air pump” or a “water pump”, the driving disk 40 can exert an inflating or water pumping function, and mostly this function can be brought into play in rural, field or natural disaster areas or human rescue areas.
By means of the foregoing embodiments, the present invention has the advantages which can be seen are as follows: a special device is provided for effective self-rescue and rapid escape when an automobile skids, sinks or is trapped in a pit under the situation of a bad weather, a snow-covered road surface or a harsh road condition. When the auto tyre encounters a pit and skids to idle, the escape device can be used for effectively, conveniently, quickly and safely getting the auto tyre out of the pit in a “jacking” manner, and the escape device can be disassembled and restored quickly; and the escape device is convenient to use and easy and quick to assemble and disassemble. The present invention can also be applied in the process of natural disaster rescue; as the escape device is equipped with the anti-skid chain plates and the driving disk, the escape device can rescue other trapped and sinking automobiles; the anti-skid chain plates can be quickly and conveniently assembled for use; and by means of the driving disk, the escape device can be connected to other tools and equipment, so that the application range of the present invention can be further broadened.
